Manning played with torn quad

[McCarthy12]

Article indicates that he concealed the injury. If true, that's pretty selfish on his part IMO. I don't know who their backup is, but Manning wasn't good enough down the stretch. He looked like Sanchez yesterday, not throwing the ball more than 10 yards. He hurt his team.

Brock Osweiler, who, theoretically, will be the starter when the horse lord retires.

[Sect 236]

He hid it from the media and other teammates, but it says the Broncos' doctors knew, so I would imagine the coaches knew too.

[McCarthy12]

I thought he was the head coach.

The 5-Head Coach.

I knew they'd have a short window up there, but he wore down fast.

he wore down fast?

This reminds me of when Favre got beat up v. The saints

And his agent tweeted photos of his bruised foot challenging America to find a tougher QB than the Old Dongslinger...

Just trying to make us feel bad for him after he averaged less than four yards per attempt for most of the game.

Makes sense now why he refused to push the ball downfield late when that was their only chance. I'd imagine he'll give it one last shot, but Idk if he can hold up over a full season anymore.

who is the backup in Denver?

he wore down fast?

who ever they have,,they have no faith in him..

I keep forgetting 2012 was his first season there and not 2013.

Osweiler. Dude's like 6'8". I don't ever see him being a starter in the league, but they spent a 2nd rounder on him in 2012.
