Thread: Tim Tebow trade rumors swirl around Denver, NFL

Not with Flynn. But Manning? Yes. Denver is a Super Bowl contender with Manning.

See I can respect that Mo. All I'm asking for is a little intellectual honesty here.

What? You might check your math again. 4 wins and 9 losses does not equal 4 games.

To level the playing field as much as possible in terms of environment and staff.

By that logic, your initial statement was inaccurate. Both QB's finished 1-4. It's just that Tebow finished a fairly successful season while Orton finished his career as a Bronco.

If you want to reach into something that neither of us have discussed to deflect, I'm sure you can find something that makes more sense than this, no?

Playoff records, 31.6 yards per completion, 3 pass completions over 50 yards.

Manning sucks
