Speak Up: Do You Approve of Manning?

There needs to be a HELL YES option!  LOL!

I will always approve of my team. Being a fan keeps me from ever getting too down on any single move they make. Approve and Like are 2 completely different things. I definitely Approve the the move, but I don’t necessarily Like it, because it means bye bye Tebow. Manning is light years ahead of Tebow, but for how much longer? Man, it’s gonna hurt if we don’t win a superbowl with Manning, and then have to watch Tebow win a superbowl with someone else.

Of course YES!  Because he will be 36, should not matter. He is a HOF QB.. His neck? Should be fine after ready about the procedures and rehab.. Can’t wait for April 16th… 

 That they will. I predicted that if we don’t win or at least be competitive IN a superbowl within the next 3 years, Elway, with all his glory in this town, will be fired. I hope it never comes to that, and I really hope we see more trophies in the display case, but this is a huge gamble. Think the LeBron James pressure in Miami is high? Try the pressure Elway will be under if Manning doesn’t win and Tebow does.

This year is the year that Manning will get fully healthy, and get comfy with the new team. Next year is the year we make our run. It’s exciting though, knowing that Vegas has us as the 4th most likely team to win the superbowl already! Now I’m even more excited for the draft, because I won’t be sweating the “will Elway pick a QB?”, instead, I’ll be wanting to see us draft a defense like we should be doing even if we didn’t get Manning. Think we draft Weeden? I like him 3rd only to Luck/RG3, but he’s already 29 I think, so if Manning plays for say 4 tears, then Weeden would be 33-34 as our starter. I don’t like that at all, cause it’ll still take a few years to get feet wet in the NFL before he gets “good”, and at that time, he’d be ready to retire.

I hate to see Tebow go but to pick him over PM is just insane. Lets get back to being a feared team to play against instead of mediocrity. This 2011 season was one of the funnest seasons in years to watch but also one of the hardest to watch, apart from all the Tebomania that came with it.

I also do think Tebow would love to play and learn from PM, I really don’t see the need to trade him.

I like the comments so far today. They are making sense. Apparently Tebow the “QB” lovers don’t get up early.

This last year was fun, and you’re right, equally frustrating. The wins were epic highs, but probably because all day, hope seemed mostly lost. I’m really trying to get fired up about Manning. Part of me is still in shock, which is keeping me from wrapping my head around it. Like I’ve said, Manning is light years ahead of Tebow. I caveat that with the “for how long?” question. But hey, Manning makes us contenders for as long as he plays. Tebow gives us hope of being contenders for 12 more years. Some pick “the now” and some pick “the future.”

I’d love for Tebow to sit behind Manning, but that just won’t realistically happen. He needs to start somewhere, and he’s warranted a shot somewhere with where he took this team. While I’m sure Tebow will say the right things regardless of how he really feels, the fans won’t support having both Manning and Tebow on the same team after what Tebow has done. The front office sure as hell won’t support the circus that will be here if Manning and Tebow are on the team together.

It’s because of these things that Tebow will have to leave. It’s unfortunate too, because we already paid Tebow a lot of his contract, and he’d do well by being in meetings and film study with Manning. What Tebow is lacking, is everything that Manning is. This means that Tebow would be a sponge for Manning’s knowledge, because half of Tebow’s sponge is fully saturated and even dripping with excess talent. The other half is practically bone dry and looking for a hydration source… Enter Peyton Freaking Manning! He’s the source, and Tebow’s sponge would have no choice but to start soaking up Manning’s intelligence.

Peyton Manning when he’s 90 will stull be a better QB than Tebow will ever become.

It’s a sad day for me, this all could have turned out so great. Imagine 5-6 years from now if Elway mentored Tebow into a SB caliber QB. Denver would be the most beloved sports story in history. Denver would be america’s team. Elway would be a legend. 

Now you have Manning……     he will always be remembered as a Colt. Not a Bronco. If Manning wins…. he won before Elway, he won before Denver……….. If Manning fails………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

Wouldnt want to have to answer the questions John Elway is gonna get.

Being a great player doesnt make you a great manager. See Jordan for an example. 

time will tell…….. 

Lets see if Manning makes it to the 2nd round of the playoffs this year. 

 How many of those wins came from fumbles(at the last second) on side kicks, overtimes.. It won’t happen again.. Yes last year was  magical year.. But in my opinion, I want to win some games by 20, watch multiple touchdown passes.. Not watch three quarters of three and outs!!!

I’ll always say that it’s ignorant to proclaim such things about anybody, regardless of if it eventually comes true or not. Nobody knows what the future holds for Tebow. We do know that Manning is maybe the best QB ever, but we really don’t know what Tebow will become.

I fully understand why Elway did this, but that doesn’t mean I have to 100% like it. It almost feels like we sold our soul, ya know? I support the Broncos, and will only get more excited about our future as the minutes, hours, days, and months go on, but right now, I’m still kinda in shock, and still kinda sad that this means that we’ll never see Tebow on our team again. Kinda like losing your kids in a divorce and watching someone else step in and be a parent to them. He’s our kid, I want to watch him grow up in our house.

you did sell your soul. You gave up a loyal devoted and honest man of character who would have gave you everything he had every second of every day in every practice, every workout and every game for the Colt’s leftovers. 

Manning is great, no denying that…… whether or not this made the Broncos a better team is yet to be seen. 

but there was no honor in this decision. I would have more respect for Elway if he got rid of Tebow the moment he got there. 

All I know is that the 1st time we see Manning hit Thomas or Decker in stride for a TD en route to a blowout win, I’ll be jumping and cheering every bit as loud as if it had been Tebow throwing that pass.

This is why I’m a Broncos fan first, Tebow fan second. I’m sad to see him go, but fully understand why Elway made the move. I hope Tebow stays, but I also know why there is probably only about a 1% chance of that happening. Quite a swing of emotions from a guy (me) who was pissed that we drafted Tebow in the first place. I’ve grown to like him and respect him both on and off the field, and I really do wish him the best and hope he becomes a HOF QB, even though I’ll be cheering for us to beat him each time he plays us. 

This is probably a good thing for all parties. The Broncos get a desperately needed quality QB and can dump the freakshow that Josh McDaniels saddled them with when he drafted Tebow. Tebow can go out on a high note, having backed the Broncos into the playoffs despite his spectacularly miserable play as a starter. Manning comes to a team that has a solid defense, some offensive weapons, and a loyal fan base that appreciates real football talent. Bronco fans have gotta be excited about the 2012 season!

I’m getting more excited with each passing second. This comes to no surprise to me, because whenever the Broncos have made sketchy moves, I always start out bewildered or shocked, and then slowly work myself up to the point that I’m predicting 19-0 each and every season but last season cause of Orton! This season, I’m sure, will be no different from my norm when the calendar flips to August…

GO BRONCOS!!!

I think we draft Weeden if he was 22. We’ll still draft a QB. We have to. I think it’ll be Foles or Osweiler tho. BJ Coleman could be a sleeper later on in the draft. Plus there’s always Weber. We are in a much better position to get our future QB groomed and ready to take over post-Manning. Kind of like Favre and Rodgers, Montana and Young, Bledsoe and Brady.

this poll is definitely showing that people are more happy about Manning being here than not.
