. >> mike klis joining us live from the sports office. mike, we knew peyton was done in denver, but it's nice to see him leave on top while so many of these other athletes keep trying to play. we were afraid peyton was going to do that. >> yeah, i think a lot of decision, rod. first of all, because it is kind of a story book ending. only two quarterbacks in history are going out with super bowl championships, john elway and peyton manning are the two, both with the denver broncos. so that's nice. but then the other thing with peyton, i think there was some concern if peyton came back next year, let's say he plays for the rams, now has to play the seattle defense twice, arizona cardinal defense twice, the 49ers who have a good defense, play them twice. i would have said no thanks to that. cleveland, where his good friend jimmy haslem is the owner, to take on the ravens and steelers defense twice a year, no thanks. >> you look at his super bowl, that was the 200th win of his career. how do you think 18 will be remembered? >> i think first of
