manning to denver, tebow?

Who cares!!!! The only good thing is we will get to see him next year in New England for anotyher Brady Manning classic. I wish he went to Miami so we could have seen it twice a year.

Tebow was good for the NFL and the Broncos in particular. They were dead in the water before he took over and he lead that team to a reasonable good season. Regardless of whether he is the prototype QB, the players got behind him for a good run. I wish him well and know that he will struggle finding success in the NFL. Still, I'm betting he will be successful in LIFE.

I agree Coach. In my book Tebow already is successful in life. There's much to admire about the young man.

Is there any question that John Elway should be executive of the year? He brilliantly extracated that franchise from chaos! Job well done.

Nativefan,

Shouldn't we wait to see the results before naming Elway executive of the year? What if this $95 million deal doesn't work out so well? What if Denver doesn't make the playoffs next year? What if Manning gets injured again and can't play?

I too believe this is a great move for the Broncos, but nothing has been proven so far. Is Tebow gone for sure or might he still be the backup QB? I think they should run him out of the running back position and let him throw it 6 times a game. That might even help Manning stay healthier by gicving defenses a different look.

The Broncos had a good defense last year, but their offensive line (pass protection) was a bit leaky at times. Manning is not a mobile QB. He's likely to get hit a lot. And he has not taken a snap or thrown a pass since 2010. He hasn't gotten any younger in that time. For sure this will be very interesting.

BTW, I've always been a Peyton Manning fan, mainly because he is a class act. I'm still a Tebow fan for the same reason.

Tebow's gone. He will not be able to execute an offense built around Manning.

It'll end up being like the ugly girl at the dance--no one will pick him up until the lights are on and there's no other options. The team that gets him will be one that has no existing offensive plan and needs a QB cheap. So, he'll go to Miami, who have no ability to land either a solid free-agent QB or a blue-chip prospect, he'll fill the role for a couple of years until they can find one, and then...

Did I miss something today? Is he gone for sure?

If you're asking if he's been traded, no.

It is just a matter of time.

I'll guess Tebow gets waived. I don't believe there's enough interest to warrant trading picks for him. There's also the circus that follows him. Chances are the new Jags owner wants Tebow to sell tickets. The Jags have last years first round pick at QB. It's instant QB controversy. Will the new Jags coach and GM really want this?

That would be my second thought, but I don't see it happening precisely because of what you mentioned.

Don't forget how many rushing TDs he had at Florida (57!!). He ran over people. If he can block, and I don't see why he couldn't he's big and solid rock, he can still be a part of that offense. I've said it before- look at his forehead. He's a real football player. He just happened to play QB.

I hope this doesn't turn out like the Babe Ruth trade.

100 year curse for Denver.

NFL defenses have guys like Mario Williams, who has something like a 8% body fat composition. College football doesn't have that. And, when you send Mario Williams after Tebow, you know that he's going to get there more often than not.

But the Broncos don't play the Bills this year.

There's a big difference from rolling out and scrambling as a quarterback and hitting the hole as a running back. There's also a big difference in the size, speed and strength of NFL defenders and the players he ran over in college.

I also doubt Tebow wants to change positions. A friend suggested today he sign with the CFL where the game is more wide open. Then if he can win a couple of championships there, an NFL team desperate for a QB might take a shot.

Elway couldn't stand Tebow and his high school offense so it's no surprise he'll be sent packing. I know if I were a Broncos fan, Tebow would drive me nuts to watch.

A Giants-Broncos Super Bowl would be a great matchup between one of the greatest regular season QBs of all time vs one of the greatest post-season QBs of all-time.

And this statement would be to incite reaction?

Tebow will probabaly go to Miami. Florida boy, wildcat offense in place, pretty good fit for all involved.

Forget Miami, they just signed David Garrard. I don't think many teams want to deal with the circus atmosphere that comes with Tebow. Even as a backup he would be the center of attention a lot of the time.

He has Bill Belichick written all over him.
