Although Peyton manning is a future hall of famer quarter back, the colts have chose to start there rebuilding with a new quarter back Andrew luck. This comparison of the quarter backs will prove that Peyton would have been better for the franchise.
Peyton manning is 6 foot 5and weighing in at 235 pounds he attended Tennessee university and started his freshman year and played 3 more season with the longhorn before he enter the NFL draft in 1998 he was a first round draft pick and overall number one, before he left college sports commentators said he will be great quarterback if he continues the ways he plays and was predicted to take his team to championships.

I believe that they should have kept Peyton manning and have Andrew luck as a back up so he could be taught the ropes by one of the greatest playing this game called football but they decided to release manning because the franchise was afraid he would get
