Hey John Elway, how has forcing Peyton Manning out the back door worked out for you? Your Denver Broncos might not even make the playoffs this year because of atrocious quarterback play.
All last year, the running narrative on the Broncos became that they don’t need a quarterback because their defense is so elite.
Age and attrition certainly kicked in with Manning, and he looked awful. And Brock Osweiler was just a game manager.
But as we are seeing this year, Manning was still a valuable asset even at his advanced age. After the Broncos lost Osweiler, he and Elway should have come to an agreement for him to finish out the final year of his contract.
