Is this the first player to leave explicitly due to the health concerns? 

 

You have to think that the new findings on the lineman/grind it out concussions, could really have an impact on some of these guys. 

 

I can't blame Moffitt at all here. 

Publicly speaking and on their own term I think so.

Peyton on his play in cold weather:

 

"Whoever wrote that narrative can shove it where the sun don't shine," Manning told Denver radio station 850 KOA following the win, which clinched a playoff berth for the Broncos (11-2). "I felt pretty good out there today."

I just love the "where the sun don't shine" comment. He's so southern sometimes. Gotta love Peyton.

Von Miller with a possible ACL injury. That would be a huge loss.

Big loss, I'll be interested to see how Peyton does since he consistently underperforms in the playoffs including last year. Can he win in the cold when it matters most.

That gives all the Peyton lovers an excuse for if he fails and ammunition if he wins. A win-win for the Peyton fans.

Should Peyton Manning be in the Broncos Ring of Fame? (Denver Broncos)

 

Has Peyton already earned a spot in the Broncos' Ring of Fame? (And of those already in, who had the shortest stint with the Broncos?)
-- Steven Divide, Denver


Steven - If the Broncos win the Super Bowl this Sunday, Manning cinches Ring of Fame. If the Broncos lose to the Seahawks, then I believe Manning needs to tack a tad more on to his body of Broncos work. A third season like his first two would do it.

Read more: Broncos Mailbag: Seahawks to test Peyton Manning, O-line in Super Bowl - The Denver Post

Interesting question for me. We complain so much how the O's HOF has been devalued and even the Ravens with someone like Earnest Byner. If Peyton doesn't win the SB, I think the answer is a clear no. Even if he wins, I think it's hard to say someone who only played two years even at a high level should get in. Now, if he comes back next year and plays at the same level, I think he should be in. I like to think you need 3 years minimum in football, preferably 5.

 

It's not like this Ravens Ring of Fame with 23 members is incredibly selective. Gary Zimmerman got in with 5 years of service. Craig Morton got in with six year and on that level, Peyton's contributions are likely larger if he wins the big game since Morton led them to ONE SB and was 2-3 in playoff games. He did win the AFC Offensive POY the year he led them to the SB and Comeback Player of the Year as well. Apparently 1981 was actually a better year for him statistically, but I don't see any honors after his 1977 season for him. Frank Tripucka actually only played four years for the Broncos, but he probably gets some credit for being their first QB (I think). Charley Johnson only played four seasons for the Broncos.

 

Edit: So after reading all that, Peyton has an even better case even if he loses on Sunday.

Broncos set to get a new color scheme and new uniforms, as Nike wants them to be the "Oregon of the NFL."

 

Any ideas on colors?

Green and gray would be appropriate for Colorado.

Denver Post: John Elway's contract extended by Broncos; team adds GM to his title

 

http://www.denverpos...ct-add-gm-title

 

Technically, the Broncos and president Joe Ellis ripped up the final year of Elway's old contract and gave him a four-year deal that runs through 2017. Plus this new title: executive vice president of football operations/general manager.

 

After hiring Fox to be his first coach, Elway's Broncos have won three consecutive AFC West titles (one with run-heavy Tim Tebow at quarterback, the other two with passing-oriented Peyton Manning) for the first time in team history, posting a combined 34-14, regular-season record.

While it's premature to evaluate his draft picks, Elway has clearly excelled with free agency. The Broncos are the only team to sign an all-pro player from free agency in each of the past two years — Manning in 2012 and right guard Louis Vasquez in 2013.

So, the Broncos have added Talib, Ward, and Ware..... and lost Decker, and OG Zane Beadles.

 

It will be interesting to see how Ware plays. Great career, but injuries the last couple of years.
