Colts looking good,but Peyton is still better than Luck. Colts still have the defensive problems that they had when PM was in Indianapolis

For how many years?

Long term I think they made the correct call

It'll be interesting to see who will be better Luck or Robert Griffin III

Wow, they were down big early.

There is a decent chance that the Broncs and Colts meet in the playoffs.  If so, look out!  That will be a circus.

It was a win - win. Colts couldn't take the risk on Peyton, and drafted an excellent replacement. Denver got the guy they needed.

Luck is going to be really, really good.  Obviously, Peyton is the one active guy most likely to break Favre's records.  But if someone is to break them again later on, it's not going to be Brady or Brees- they're too old and too far behind at this point.  If there's one active guy who's going to do it, my pick would be Luck.

Plus, Manning could not wait for a another rebuilding effort to take place. He made the right choice.

Peyton IS a rebuilding effort.  You have #18 under center, you're rebuilt.

Seriously, I don't know if one single player has ever made a such a big difference in NFL history.
