There are rumours around the NFL that Peyton Manning could decide against retirement in the 2016 off-season. Our US sportswriter Alex Ferguson looks at the pros and cons of No 18 coming back…. The great thing about the NFL off-season is that we get to make comments about whether certain teams were right about giving big players the franchise tag, ask questions about free agency, and say our goodbyes to the great ones who have retired (See you, Marshawn Lynch! Goodbye Calvin Johnson!). NFL Ins and Outs See who is going where with our rolling news blog And theres the curious case of Peyton Manning, who seems to be in flux over whether he wants to continue playing….. So I measured out the pros and cons of the two-time Super Bowl-winning future Hall of Famer playing again:ProsPeyton Manning is an idol and every team would be made better by his presence - not only on the field but also off it.It would bring massive attention to another franchise (the Los Angeles Rams are rumoured to be thinking about making a run for him). Not only that, but he would get to compete for his third Super Bowl title, putting him above his brother Eli, who only has two.Three rings would also put Peyton Manning in the victory ring with the likes of Troy Aikman and Steve Young - and those are names youd WANT to have your name alongside. Mannings memorable milestone Some of the greats greatest moments The biggest reason why Peyton Manning should come back, though, is that he can silence the doubters. Theres no escaping the fact that the 2015/16 season was not a pretty picture for him.In fact, it was pretty terrible in terms of not only stats (nine touchdowns and 17 interceptions, and his lowest season in terms of career yards - which you could blame on injury) but also how he played.His throwing at times was nigh-on awful, and never looked like improving. Rebounding on a high thats not just based on a fabulous defence, but also a tremendous offence led by him. After winning Super Bowl 50, Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning paraded the trophy around Disneyland with his family Oh, and a couple more years could be quite a nice payday, too.ConsThe NFL loves its comeback stories, but Peyton Manning already had one when he replaced Brock Osweiler after being dropped and never looked back, taking home a Super 50 crown. He doesnt need another one where he gets off his death bed to take a team to a mediocre record, quite possibly because of his poor quarterbacking.His 9:17 TD:INT rate was simply awful, and if you look at the stats throughout this season, he had stumbled to his worst year since his rookie season in completion percentage. And when he tried to throw the ball a long way, it was almost sad to watch how bad the throws were. They arent going to get any better in 2016, unless he suddenly gets fitted with a bionic arm in the off-season. Peyton Manning won a second championship ring as Denver Broncos beat Carolina Panthers 24-10 to win Super Bowl 50 If Manning leaves now, hell be celebrated as a Bronco. Hes going to be cut by John Elway, but Elway really doesnt want to do it in the harsh fashion that he normally would. But cutting Manning would save the organisation $19m, and why would they want someone who had such a poor year when theyve got the up-and-comer in Brock Osweiler, who showed some excellent prowess in his few games - and a better arm.The NFL is not a league thats high on sentiment, so Manning should take all the good wishes he can get, continue promoting and maybe get a job in the TV booth. Peyton Manning secured his second Super Bowl ring in what could be his final game before retiring The final con - and Im saying this without tongue-in-cheek - is that I dont think that Manning would get through the 2016 season without injury. Every bit of his body is in pain right now, and his mother has told reporters that she really, really doesnt want him to come back this year. I think its a mothers intuition that she doesnt want to see her son scraped off the field. Which I think could well happen if he takes foot again.What do you think Manning should do? Should he ride off into the sunset with the second Super Bowl ring in his back pocket or is he good for one more rodeo? Fill in the form below and join the debate by leaving your thoughts...

The Redskins announced Monday that the quarterback who led the team to the Super Bowl championship in the 1987 season will serve as a personnel executive.The Winnipeg Goldeyes sent staff ace Matt Rusch to the mound hoping to get back on the winning track. It turned out they did most of the heavy lifting before Rusch even threw a pitch. The Goldeyes sent 12 men to the plate in an eight-run first inning on their way to a 12-1 rout of the Sioux Falls Canaries on Thursday to earn a series split. Casey Haerther and Amos Ramon started the big inning with a pair of two-run singles. Then in his second at bat of the inning, Ryan Scoma capped off the frame with a bases-clearing, two-out double that plated three Goldeyes runs. Scoma had two hits in the first, along with Fehlandt Lentini, who also scored twice. The eight-run, seven-hit first was the Goldeyes highest single-inning output of the season in both categories. "You really cant ask for anything better than that," said Goldeyes pitching coach Jamie Vermilyea on the TSN 1290 post-game show. "It takes a lot of pressure of the pitcher and he can just go out there and throw strikes." With the score 8-1, Lentini led off the fourth with a home run over the left field wall. The solo shot was the Goldeyes centerfielders third home run of the season. They extendded their lead to double digits later in the inning when Josh Mazzola hit a RBI triple off the wall.dddddddddddd Mazzola scored on the play when the throw to third was off the mark. Casey Haerther hit his fifth home run of the season in the ninth to finish off the scoring. Matt Rusch picked up the win for the Goldeyes. He went 7 2/3 innings, the longest start for a Winnipeg starter all season. Rusch struck out seven and improved his record to 4-0. The Goldeyes also snapped a streak of seven straight games with an error. "He took advantage of their hitters being overly aggressive," Vermilyea said. "He had command of all of his pitches and he definitely got better as the game went on." Canaries starter Jordan Whatcott went four innings and dropped to 0-5 on the season. He allowed 10 earned runs on 10 hits, while walking one and striking out three. The Goldeyes will head to Fargo to finish up their road trip with a three game weekend series against the RedHawks. Left-hander Mark Hardy will look to improve his record to 4-0 in the series opener on Friday. The action starts with the pregame show with Paul Edmonds at 6:30pm ct on TSN 1290. ' ' '
