arghh....Alex Smith better stay with the niners then....

Fucking manning going to the broncos for real? I would of preferred him in the titans. Lol....Him being a free agent really made a bunch of starting qb's nervous. Smith, Sanchez, Tebow, I'd call out the NFC ones, but they lucked out that Peyton doesn't want to go against Eli in the regular season much.
Maybe I could teach Osama that using a plane as a wraith or dropship would be 10x better than using it as a scourge..... ^^; -Flex

While Denver is kind of middle of the road, they at least had pieces in place that supported Tebow's style of play/raping the game of passing the football. Jax and Miami are awful, through and through. His chances of becoming a successful qb were already slim in Denver. It's pretty much non existent there.

However, since both franchises are already in the dumps, I can see them making a play just for the media exposure. Especially Jax.

Nothing official yet, but it seems inevitable.
Personally I would hate to see Tebow sitting on the bench. What a waste that would be. There are plenty of teams in the league that could use him. There are even a few in need of saving. Let the messiah come.

Just about died when I saw this.

John elway wants a qb to foster out tebow until hes ready to take on the world. This move has been predicted ever sence payton started to get overtures of leaving the colts as elway was never confident with tebow as hes not the type of player that he thinks is a good qb.

Tebow after a year or 2 will become a powerhouse in the league making a great rival to the packers.

Manning doesn't want to take a pay cut(aka his ego is too big to take less money) to win another championship thats why he took Broncos over 49ers. I really hope this ends badly for him.

I'd be more inclined to believe reports which said Peyton Manning didn't want to go to an NFC team because he didn't want to risk being in the position of having to beat his brother's team to get to the Super Bowl.

they should just keep tebow and use him as a wildcat formation qb in the red zone(while getting better from manning). it's a perfect setup with manning as the main qb now. I am from denver but we all know tebow was not cut out to be a star qb(yet) funny how some think it's not "believing" in the guy with stats like his. He could also be much better off in a half back position or possibly tight end. Just because you got the lord with you doesn't mean you have to be a superstar qb, it could still happen in years... if he ever figures out throwing a football doesn't require the motion of using a sledge hammer.

This is the best thing that could have happened to Tebow. If he would have played he would have been exposed with his opponents having more time to counter him. If he stays in Denver he can sit on the sideline and feed off the "oh man he is so good but he can't show it anymore!"

Great for Tebow-mania.

Thankfully for Elway, the AFC West is the worst division in football and with a half decent defense, which they have, they can easily win the division. With Manning behind the ball, instead of Tebow, they will have a legit chance in the playoffs.

I'm not liking this move. The Broncos last year had a questionable pass defense that was able to hide behind their pass rush from time to time. Most of their run was against teams with shaky passing offenses. That and they just really got lucky many times.

It's clear Manning can turn virtually any NFL team into a playoff team. The issue is whether Denver is the right choice if the goal is to win it all. I think that's the part I (and more than a few others here) am having difficulties with.

But like I said, Peyton knows his football so he probably knows something we here do not. The other part of the equation might be that winning a championship isn't as high a priority as we all think. Not saying it's not on his radar, but the thinking was that winning the SB trumped all other considerations. Perhaps that's not entirely true.

Anyway, just a bizarre choice. I'm looking forward to the explanation as the story unfolds.

An interesting option someone mentioned - Tebow to New England where he gets re-united with the coordinator who drafted him. Denver gets Ryan Mallett in return, a more conventional drop-back QB prospect currently sitting behind Brady and learning the trade. Why not do the same in Denver behind Manning?

Food for thought. Might get done if Denver and New England want to dance. Would still be terrible for Tebow since sitting behind Brady is an even worse graveyard assignment than sitting behind Manning for any young QB wanting to get his shot at starting. Brady's a franchise QB, pretty durable, has a system around him specifically engineered to provide maximum QB protection and has a few more years left in him than Manning.

Doesn't matter what Tebow thinks or wants though. The Broncos will do what's in their interest, that much is certain. At least it is now.

He could have done his job search the way most of us would. He probably went to the place where he thought he would be most comfortable and where he can excel the most.

They actually talk about Pats not because he will sit behind Brady trying to learn, he is a horrible passer with worst passing percentages ever after all... They were talking about Pats making him into a running back or a blocker or w/e other position he might fit lol, not a backup QB. No decent franchise would want this guy throwing the ball. But he seems capable of running with the ball and making decisions.

San Francisco would have been a much better fit for Manning....with the 49ers unbelievably good defense, Peyton has less pressure on him to be the "leader" of the team and more of a game manager (because seriously, who can even say that Peyton will be able to throw the ball remotely close to the way he used to?). The Broncos....eh. I dislike Tebow, but I think he deserved a shot after his performance last year.
