Thread: Manning still has some work, but impressed not only Broncos but other teams that were interested

Yet the Broncos have few concerns with Manning's medical condition. He already passed the physical exam that a team of Broncos doctors administered during the visit to Durham, a development that Elway informed Manning of when he returned home to Denver that night.
Manning also passed physical exams by San Francisco and Tennessee but he has told all teams that he still has gains to achieve in terms of arm strength and endurance that are related to nerve regeneration due to his neck injury. Nevertheless, his throwing sessions observed by all three teams -- combined with extensive video of previous workouts -- were satisfactory enough for those teams to pursue the most celebrated available player since the NFL's free agency era began in 1993.

One thing I hope is that Peyton shakes the Philip Rivers monkey off his back here......

Norv was saying on the phone that it was because they could run the ball against Indy that they kept beating them... not because they handled PM...

So you're saying BRONCOS better not ignore the defense.

Manning threw 6 interceptions in one game against them. SD ran for only 91 yards in that game so not sure Norv is right about this.

Of course had Vinatieri not missed a short FG at the end the Colts still might have won.

Every team has their achilles. For a long time we had NE's number even though they were often the better team overall. Either way, with Fox i think we see far more running than Peyton is accustomed too and that should only benefit him. The only difference is when we need that big first down or need that score Peyton will get it.

It's a little disconcerting that he's not at 100%, but if they saw him work and think he's good to go, I'm good with that.

Similar to how we match up well with Pittsburgh in recent years.
