Thread: Manning to Broncos

Thought we might need to remember this.

A lot has changed, but look where we've been.

I just wanted to remind us all of that day, where we've been, and where we are.

All I know is five and O.

The only damn thing bumping this thread did is make me miss Claymore!

Pure gold.

I love this season.

No. Former star players overwhelming make bad coaches/GMs.

Now letting Manning eat Drew Lock to absorb his youth and suit up again? That is an overreaction I can get behind!

Seriously though, could you imagine what Manning could do with these receivers? Good lord.

No. Elway is great at a GM.

Manning for OC- That is the move we need to get behind!

No. No. No. Manning ran like five plays. And I’m only being slightly hyperbolic. He just was so good at them it didn’t matter.

Very few people can do that. He’s the savant not the coach.

I do not agree with this.
We ran his offense in 2013, with Mike the all time fail Mccoy calling the plays. Now I agree Mike Mccoy had like 5 plays. Run on first down. Anytime it was 3rd and 6 or more he called the bubble screen. There were a lot more plays than 5 or 15. Mccoy just really sucked at OC.

Manning is GoatAF no doubt! How many times did he call plays at the LOS, how many times did he change plays, check to other plays. I remember one game as a colt he was at the LOS calling out a play. He then called something and stokley came off the bench and lined up (while the team was already at the LOS). The defense did not sub, peyton snapped the ball, and threw it to stoke who got the first down. One of the most amazing things I have ever seen.

That is pure bologna that he would not be a good OC. Peyton knows more about OC then shurmer does I bet. Besides, the greatest asset that peyton could be as an OC is NOT calling plays. It is he in the film room with the QB telling the QB how to read the defense. Peyton knows all the signs, all the tip offs, where the ball should go before the ball is snapped. He can teach the QB this.

The more I think about it, the more this should happen and the more that your stance on this one is so terribly incorrect.
Imagine a physically talented QB like Lock with Peytons mind.
It will never happen. But if it could, that is bar none the move to make.

To add to that, that is why I liked Romo so much as an announcer. He could tell by how the defense was lined up what the play should be and or would be. Now for many that spoiled or ruined the play. I thought it was fantastic. Having a guy like that working everyday to show the QB what play and why- match made in heaven baby.

I doubt Manning ran only 5 plays, he is virtually the epitome of the student of the game type QB.

He actually did run a really simple offense. He just executed it perfectly. Mike Leach is the same. He's known as this offensive genius and has had record setting offenses in college, and his play sheet is literally the size of a notecard. You don't have to have a lot of plays to have a great offense.

Dude. I’m telling you. We didn’t run any system devised by McCoy. We ran the the Indianapolis offense. The Tom Moore offense.
