Peyton goes to SFran. Any post-career job offer from Tennessee will still be there when he retires, and from a lot of other teams as well.

IDK, I think there will be a huge clashing of egos there with Harbaugh, Manning, Moss.

It's Harbaugh's team, is Manning going to be able to handle that? Peyton's been doing it his way for a long time. I see all kinds of conflict there as both fight it out to be the alpha male.

Manning might just be the calming influence Moss needs, but with both Harbaugh & Manning 'mentoring' him, I think he rebels. It's just his nature.

Of course, winning solves a lot of problems, but there still will be plenty of TMZ moments.

now they got Manningham...2 good WR's...Vernon Davis...Frank gore and a great defense...plus warm weather and a crappy division

Slomo, I think you make a good point. I initially thought no way Manning's personality meshes well with harbaby. But still, the fact that they made a "secret" trip to work him out, with the volatility that is Alex Smith, it's just all making me a little uneasy.

And perhaps, the crappiest field in the NFL.

Not for long though... I mean their plans are to move to the new stadium for the 2014 season.

I think Manning is there (SFran), and they (Harbaugh, Manning, Moss) all think they have enough experience & professionalism to make it work, and if it does, they'll be hard to beat ... but what happens if Manning starts changing the plays and veers from Harbaugh's game plan? How much preaching/motivation from Harbaugh/Manning can Randy Moss take before he snaps?

It'll be interesting to see if Manning can take a back seat to Harbaugh, that's for sure.

He needs a top notch line to protect him. Who's got the best one out of these teams?

Fine for whomever the QB is then.

Manning may only have a year or two left.

I think we can all agree that his forehead is an unstoppable force, or an irresistible object.

The rest of him?

Tennessee, then SFran, but mostly Tennessee ... plus there's some restaurant in TN offering Peyton lifetime pancakes if he signs ... IDK, if it were me, that offer would have pushed it over the top,

Yeah, and it was neither here nor there anyway, so I apologize for my mild case of OCD, which makes me a stickler for details.
