Immediately following Denver's stunning upset of the Patriots in last week's AFC Championship Game, Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning met with Patriots coach Bill Belichick at the 50-yard-line.
"Hey listen'' Manning said in Belichick's ear, "this might be my last rodeo so it sure has been a pleasure.''
With that, Manning appeared to hint that he will retire following this Sunday's Super Bowl 50 against the Panthers.
Manning won't confirm that he's riding off into the sunset, but if he does, he will do more than close out one of the greatest careers in NFL history. He also would put an end to one of the greatest rivalries in football history.
