| It's the smart thing to do. He's seen that he can't carry the team the WHOLE time. | |

With the lock out over and the pressure to sign a new deal in the face of the Clots entering the season short of top talent, he is now willing to make a move that saves face. | |

| The details have come out.....Jughead is going to make $23 million each of the next 3 seasons and about $10.5 the last two seasons of the contract.
So Saint Peyton is the highest paid QB in the league and all of the talk about giving back to help the team is bogus. He is not going to play at $10.5 million a year the last two seasons. This is essentially a 3 year deal to close out his career. | |

| The top players are pressured to sign and get paid as much money as possible because that sets the market for everybody else.
If Peyton were to be paid an average of 10 million per over five years instead of whatever the actual average is(18 million or whateves) then a player like Sidney Rice would only average something like 4.5 million per instead of 8.2 he just inked with the Seahawks.
What do you think Peyton is more concerned about? (A)Winning games/championships or (B)adding to his enormous bank roll?
If you answer B then I have to question your sanity. | |
