And for the 10,000th time in this thread, it would be an unnecessary distraction to the team. Every f***ing reporter would be asking every player interviewed about who is starting at QB.

Good to see you back posting, Zweem!

How is saying "no comment" a distraction?

I think you're smarter than this.

I'm sorry buff, but you're conveniently overlooking a distinct and likely scenario in your equation here. Locker rooms are notoriously porous when it comes to leaking information. When that information finally leaks, don't you think that that would become a distraction in the locker room? I'm sorry, but in no way shape or form can I condone inviting drama into the locker room. Especially as we enter the playoffs. If my choices are between gaining a minor competitive advantage and possibly creating locker room drama, and being upfront about the situation, I'm siding with Kubiak's decision every single day of the week.

I'll just be mute on the subject then.

I can barely contain my excitement.

If he stinks it up early Brock will probably go in, and vice versa, right?

Mute, moot.

"At this point, what difference does it really make?" Kinda like Bengazi.

I'm just glad Payton is starting. We have been waiting for a healthy Payton Manning in the playoffs for the last couple of years. Now we have as close to one as we will get and I, for one, am excited about it.

Kubiak press conference from this morning. He pretty much addresses everything being discussed on this thread.

SUPER BOWL BOUND!
