Peyton Manning’s days in Indianapolis are over. Don’t act surprised. Colts owner Jim Irsay and Manning will hold a press conference today to make the announcement official.
And so begins the Peyton Manning watch. You thought it was bad before? Now that Manning is officially on the market, Rachel Nichols will surely be reporting from outside his house giving ESPN updates every seven minutes for the next few weeks.
On Twitter, the insanity has already begun. Lindsey, BSR’s lead writer on our Tumblr page, retweeted a few of the passionate Ravens fans that want Manning in Baltimore.

More buffoons after the break.
At least Arjun would rather trade Flacco than release him.
If you haven’t followed the BSR Tumblr page, please do so. It’s awesome and you’ll be glad you did. We’re also giving away a prize pack for the best caption of this photo.
You people are CRAZY! Any REAL Ravens fan would realize Flacco IS our QB,no one else. Enough with the crazy talk.
Frigging morons,,,,,Flacco is the man and the only folks that need to know that do – Get Flacco Signed Oz!
Sign Manning and trade Flacco to get the rams #2 pick and take RG3. Let RG3 learn from manning and we will be set winning Super Bowls under manning Now and RG3 in the future!
Your ignorance preceeds you.
so the Rams will get sam bradford and flacco? you dont know football
NO! NO! The Atlanta Falcons could use someone who knows how to play!!
There is an imposter here who really wants to be me,,,,,,,,,I have not posted here in three days………..
Those tweets are why I avoid all Ravens fans when I go on road trips.
Embarrassing.
I think we should try to get Peyton Manning. Flacco has done an adequate job at Quarterback leading us to 4 straight playoff appearances, and 2 AFC Championships, but maybe he can learn a few more things from Manning, that can put us over the hump (Super Bowl). What better Quarterback to learn from, than Manning?
Yes, because Joe Flacco would be fine with that scenario.
I mean, is this stuff for real?
Flacco is a free agent after this season, and will probably get paid more than he is worth…is it really that crazy?
The Ravens have zero interest in Manning.
None.
Hell, I’ve been labeled a Flacco “basher” by some and even I know this talk of Manning is ridiculous.
I’m not even gonna get into all the reasons Manning will not be here and should not be here.
Are you Ozzie Newsome or are you just speaking on his behalf? Up until he signed, people were claiming that the Angels had no interest in Albert Pujols either…I mean they already had 2 competent first basemen right?
Oh my.
Screw Joe Flacco. How can a guy take us to a Superbowl and win when he says, “I just wish there was no Siperbowl, then the fans would be happy.” He can never win as a QB, maybe as a cheerleader or ballboy but not QB!
If the Ravens signed Manning and Manning has no effects from the surgery then the Ravens go to the Super Bowl in the next 2 years. Even Harbaugh (Andy Reid/Norv Turner/Marty Schottenheimer clone) and his coaching buddies couldn’t screw this up like they do every year.
Flacco is an average QB at best. Does not deserve the big payday he wants.
Harbaugh, Flacco and Cameron hold this team back from winning a Super Bowl.
When Flacco plays even worse this year do you think he should get the big money?
Then you get the clowns that will say it’s not Flacco’s fault that Lee Evans dropped that pass in the Patriots game. How bout if Flacco would have stepped up and won those games against the Seahawks, Titans, etc? Then they would have had home field advantage throughout the playoffs and it might not have come down to that pass.
