Let's move forward 5 yrs to 2026. Introducing the New NFL Commissioner Mr Peyton Manning.

[@Destinys.Insight]

I remember when he could tell to the oz how much each football weighed that he was handed…goes to show Brady was lying

[@ryanhahn3651]

I don’t know why he’d want to, but I think he’d be an amazing Commissioner.

[@bige8496]

@@peterkapusi5882 I think it was the best HOF speech I've ever heard in my life. 👍👍👍

[@solemn-man3170]

“He is definitely the best quarterback I’ve coached against, There have been quarterbacks who called their own plays, but it was nowhere near the same as what he did. He basically called every play by adjusting and/or changing the play once he saw what the defense was doing. He excelled at using the cadence and recognizing blitzes, and more than any one single offensive player, he forced us to change and adapt defensive game plans.” - bill bellicheck

Peyton is the true example of class. Such a good guy!!

[@Meemeeseecoo]

Wow, what a great speech. I def teared up a bit when he talked about his family. As a current New Orleans resident, I’ve walked by his childhood home (Archie still lives there) several times. It’s crazy to imagine the Manning family play football together. I also grew up in Canton, OH and it was really cool to hear him give the fans props. I’d be all for Peyton taking the Commish job.

Always was a game when he was playing. Really miss him vs Brady. From new England. Peyton deserves all the accolades. Great player. Great man.

[@christhompson8630]

As a Colts Fan, and watching Peyton play in Indy for all those years, this was our guy! The definition of a legend. Arguably the best quarterback to ever play the game! This guy would do surgery on defenses. An absolute phenom, countless memories of him and the Indianapolis Colts. Thank you Peyton and congratulations!

But only 1 ring with the Colts?

[@Peakfreud]

Yeah, well I was satisfied with his Brother on Giants. I don't care what anyone says about Eli he may not have been as good But he was good enough Eli is my Favorite Q.B The Manning's had Brady's number. If not for the Manning brothers Thanos Aka Tom Brady would have 10 rings maybe more.

[@Peakfreud]

@@evangraham532 Yeah I hate the ring counting in football.. There's literally 54 players , 20 coaches , a dozen people in the front office another 30 trainers Dozens of Agents And one Starting Q.B Basketball is a tad bit different But Football has way too many moving pieces... To ring count a players career. Barry Sanders, Dan Marino & the Entire Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas & Bruce Smith Buffalo Bills come to mind. Two Field Goals changed all of their legacies.

Can't help but think that Kobe and Peyton retired the same year and they both had the same type of preparation. I expected the same for Kobe if he would've gotten his chance. His speech would've been soooooooo well prepared. RIP Kobe. Congrats to you Peyton, Go Colts!!

Kobe once spoke of how in awe he was in Peyton Manning's preparation. I've never heard him talk that way about another pro athlete like that. It was just before the Colts played the Saints in the 09 super bowl.
