Joe Flacco says he understands what it is to be Broncos' quarterback

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- You're next Joe Flacco.

You're the next quarterback tossed into the grinder. The grinder of history, of decades worth of success, of a loyal, passionate following and a football decision-maker who happens to be a Hall of Fame quarterback.

Don't think so? Consider Peyton Manning threw 55 and 39 touchdown passes in the two seasons Adam Gase was the Broncos' offensive coordinator and there were multiple occasions Gase's emotions would boil over defending what Manning was doing at quarterback for teams that went 13-3 and 12-4.

Since Manning retired after the 2015 season, the Broncos have churned through Trevor Siemian, Brock Osweiler, Paxton Lynch and Case Keenum at quarterback.
