Plenty of things were amiss for Peyton Manning in the year he spent away from football. Neck surgeries forced him off the field and into the training room, so Manning couldn't practice.
One of the things Manning wound up missing most was the relationship with a quarterbacks coach. Now that he's in Denver, even though he's 36 and in his 15th season, Manning said he needs that sort of one-on-one attention from a quarterbacks coach more than ever.
"I think the older you get, the more important it is to have a guy to watch your fundamentals, certainly go over defenses and reads and progressions, but also to go over your fundamentals (with) your throwing mechanics," Manning said this week.
