Where Peyton should go.... and Sarah's photographic reaction!

Now that the Jets have stepped out of the Peyton sweepstakes, because life as we know it in New York would end if the Jets had a decent quaterback, it is time for me to share where I think he should really go, but first a quick breakdown of the current favorites.

• The Broncos are a possibility, but I don't think this is a good fit for a number of reasons.  The first is Tim Tebow.  If Peyton shows any signs of rust, it will get ugly.  I also think that this is Tebow's team.  He may not be perfect.  But he is a winner.  Give him a chance to develop, give your team a chance to be great.  Remember, the Denver defense is not as good as we think it is.  Whenever they played anyone decent, they got lit up.  Their defense actually reminds me of the Colts in many ways- good at rushing the passer, not so hot at anything else.  The big positive is the division is wide open- hmmm..........
• The Cardinals are not where he should go.  Yes, I like their underrated defense.  Yes, Larry Fitzgerald is the man.  The problems are that they don't have a ton of cap space, and their offensive line is, well, offensive.  Remember, Kevin Kolb was beat up like a pinata on Sinco de Mayo.  Ouch.  I don't like this fit for Peyton.
• These are the two favorites.  The team he should go to........

The Kansas City Chiefs!  Why you may ask.  Let me tell you why.  

• They have a ton, literally a ton of cap space- about 50 million dollars.  
• They have a very talented defense- these guys actually get the job done, look at what they did the Packers.  But, Mike, that was a home game. 
•  Exactly!  The Chiefs have one of the best home field advantages in the league.  Arrowhead is a tough place to win, just ask my Uncle Joe.  Really, what else are you going to do in Kansas City besides eat BBQ food- which you can do at Arrowhead!
• The Chiefs actually have some really good weapons.  Jamal Charles is a really talented back- remember, he missed most of last year with injury.  Tony Moeaki, a talented young tight end, was hurt last year and will also come back.  Dewayne Bowe is a big time threat as a wide out.  Steve Breaston is the perfect slot guy.  Dexter McCluster is game breaker, who will be the next Darren Sproles with Manning as his QB.
• With the leftover cap room after signing Peyton, the Chiefs can make a real run at Reggie Wayne.  More importantly, they can go after Dallas Clark, who went to school at Iowa, so you know he'd enjoy the beef in KC.  With Steve Hutchinson getting cut this morning, the Chiefs can sign him to help provide veteran leadership on their line.  They also have a high draft pick, and can add even more talent up front with said pick.
• The coach, Romeo Crennel, is already on record saying he wants Peyton.  He would be perfect in many ways.  The team played hard for down the stretch, especially the defense.  I think Manning could come in and run the show in any way he wanted to, and Crennel would focus on perfecting the defense and eating donuts- too bad Krispy Kreme's quality hit the dumps, or else I would buy all the stock I could afford.
• The Hunt family, owners of the Chiefs, really want to add Peyton.  They have a reputation as a classy family, unless you believe the rants of Todd Haley.
• The media in Kansas City is not particularly powerful nor large.  Peyton could control these clowns, and the information the team shares.
• If he won with the Chiefs, he would surpass Joe Montana.  Legacy anyone?

So let's all hop on the bandwagon and start sending e-mails to Peyton imploring him to join the Chiefs.  As a matter of fact, The Sports Couple has a pact to abandon our current teams and become hard core Chiefs fans if this does in fact happen.  Join us!
