Dungy says what I've always believed about No. 16 turned 18.

Tony Dungy explains why Peyton Manning could never be a coach | ProFootballTalk

Tony Dungy coached Peyton Manning for seven seasons in Indianapolis and gave him wide leeway to call the plays, run the offense and generally act like a coach on the field. But Dungy doesnt think Manning could ever be a coach on the sideline.

Perhaps Manning’s biggest problem as a coach would be that he wouldn’t be able to run an offense that didn’t have Peyton Manning as its quarterback.

Peyton will be an owner long before he'll ever be a coach

I disagree. I think Peyton will coach some day and be one of the best every. He is too competitive to do anything else.

So how come you know him better than his coach for seven seasons? Not flaming, just curious.

He would be an offensive coordinator or quarterbacks coach

I don't think Peyton will ever take a job making only a few hundred grand. Why would he?

I've always been intrigued by the idea of Peyton Manning coaching. I think with some adjusting he would make a great coach. However I see him going the route of working in a front office as a GM, probably go the same route as Elway.
