Re: Peyton

IMO. Peyton's daze are numbered. The Donkeys have NO OLine, and Tebow ran for his life behind them. Yeah, TT made yards, but Peyton ain't gonna run NOWHERE. I hope KC has them first game, and Hali officially introduces himself to Peyton. He and horseface make the perfect pair.

Well Peyton is an idiot. Damn, how in the world did he overlook all that stuff?

I think he liked the orange uniforms the Broncos wear.

Well why are you saying he won't make it 3 weeks? Injury or ineffectiveness?

Re: Peyton

For what it's worth, when people besides Manning were playing behind the Colts' line this past season and Kyle Orton, bless his mediocrity, was playing behind the Broncos' line, Indy and Denver gave up sacks at roughly the same rate -- a rate that is roughly twice as much as Manning was accustomed to being sacked, and half as much as Tebow was sacked. The quarterback has a lot to do with it. An old pro that knows how to set the right protections, doesn't get caught unaware by blitzes, knows pre-snap who's likely to be open and gets the ball out of his hand on time isn't going to take as many hits. A quarterback who prefers to pull the ball down and scramble if his primary receiver isn't open will take plenty. Of course, Tebow made a lot of plays happen while running around. It's just part of the deal.

Having said that, Denver's line had issues, Tebow or no Tebow. But there's free agency and a draft between now and the season, I'm assuming they'll try to do something about it.

Re: Peyton

Just seen this :

Jacob Tamme just joined his buddy Wesley Woodyard when he signed a three-year deal with the Broncos today. Tamme said he’s “looking forward to getting to work” in Denver.


Maybe not big big news but as a UK fan as well, glad to see JT joining Wesley Woodyard. I would say he will get some quality minutes at TE as well !

Evidently you didn't watch the Donkey's play last year. They have no OL, and Tebow was running for his life. I don't see PM doing any running.

Did you watch any Colt's games when Peyton was there? The Colt's O-Line has been a disaster since 2006 and wasn't very good before that, Peyton gets rid of the ball quickly.

Re: Peyton

And Tebow takes forever to release it. Maybe Denver's OL does stink, I have no idea, but no line holds long enough to keep him from running for his life.

Fearless prediction: Jacob Tamme will pull a Dallas Clark in Denver and catch 70+ balls with 8 or more TDs next season.

(This assumes Manning runs an offense similar to the one he left in Indianapolis.
