As it stands, this is the equivalent of a Sith apprentice waiting for the master to die of old age in order to usurp the mantle of Dark Lord, instead of rightfully challenging for it.
There is no powah here.
That is so 2015...keep pretending Manning is coming back. Its all you really have...the past.
You are correct...all the "powah" left as soon as the door slammed behind Manning. All those ratings he generated, the corporate revenue he created...gone just like that. He made the NFL billions.... I dont think we'll be seeing Sanchez in Gatorade commercials anytime soon...half of your fanbase will quit watching after game 4...and the NFL will stop throwing fake flags. The last thing they want is Sanchez in the SB....luckily they wont have to intervene to prevent that from happening. [Reply]

It's KC vs Oakland for the West. Is what it is. Carr ascends and that Faid team is a threat for years to come. [Reply]

Oh I get the reality, no doubt. That said, you can surely see my point. [Reply]

NFL is going to be in full throat..pimping Luck, Brady's revenge and Carr.....the Raider hype is a calculated agenda.
They are desperate for a new generation of "faces of league"... [Reply]

Nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww you're getting it. Get yourself a prime time QB, and watch all those "bad calls" go your way, and see how much respect you suddenly get from the Networks and Press.
Shit, it'll be a goddamned, non-stop, Lil' Chiefy fiesta of jizz-tastic proportions for you and old Pasta. You literally will not believe the change.
Outside of the Monday night monkey show, you are not currently worthy of the big time in the eyes of this league, and they will thwart you every step of the way.
Better send a memo to Cluck post-haste! :-) [Reply]

No more free rides and gratuities from Roger. Your Donks and horseface gotta earn this on your own now. No Peyton swan song or Papa John / Budweiser to fall back on.

The Broncos leave on Friday and come back immediately after the game on Sunday, the other teams can be gone on longer road trips. In 4-7 days your body will adjust to the new altitudes, so if the other teams are gone for 4+ days they need to re-acclimate to the Denver altitude when they get home.

Is the thin air an advantage? Sure, but it's not the reason they win.
I knew that it was virtually impossible for a Donko follower to answer with a simple yes/no. Spin is a must to rationalize those tarnished trophies....
You, begrudgingly against overwhelming evidence,.... answered "yes"...
So at least we have established that the Broncos have a natural occurring home field advantage that no other team has the luxury of exploiting...that's a start.
I conceded that this "re-programming" would take time...but you showed promise.
