Denver Broncos linebacker DeMarcus Ware isn't convinced Peyton Manning will ride off into the sunset as a champion.

Ware was a guest on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Monday and gave his thoughts on Manning's future:

"I don't know (if he will retire), but I know that him winning this game put him out on top," Ware told the host. "If he is going to do it, this is a great time to do it. But if he wants to play a little bit more, I feel like he still has a little bit in the tank."

Ware is likely being polite. Manning's performance in the Super Bowl strongly suggests he has very little, if anything, left in the tank. The 18-year veteran went 13-of-23 passing for 141 yards and one interception, giving him an abysmal passer rating of 56.6.

Manning said he will take some time to ponder his playing future before deciding on retirement.
