Against the 4-12 Chargers in the last game of the season Manning led them to 20 points in the last 1.5 quarters, without that they were a (wildcard ?) team going on the road.
fun fact- in the 39 seasons Denver has played without a first ballot hall of famer they have won the west only 4 times (once with an 8-8 record) [Reply]

It wasn't just Manning, IT WAS ALL MANNING!
Many of the players that took over, when he got off the HGH, errrrrr "Fell off a cliff", were only there because of HIM, many of whom played below market value to get a ring. SO again - IT WAS ALL MANNING.
It's also all in the past. You live for that now. :-) [Reply]
I personally think that the Chiefs should bring Sanders in for a workout. Let him catch a few balls from Mahomes, sit down and describe to him how he would fit in our offense, make an agreement in principle, then, when it's time to sign, tell him no thanks. You had your chance and played us. Go join Manning in retirement shithead. [Reply]

If the NFL offered its divisions a "one day mega-signing" event whereby any player from any team in the division could solicit any other franchise in the same division without posting a cap hit to that franchise because the salaries would be payed directly by ownership, Bret Veach would have every stinky Donkey worth anything camped outside of his office with their agent trying to get on this ship as fast as they could.
Except Mongo, because he'd be too busy washing Elwoe's car that day to even know what was going on. [Reply]
