I can see it now.
Date: January 10, 2016
The setting: Divisional Round in Invesco
Participants: Denver vs. KC
The story: Coach doesn't believe in taking away a starting job due to injury. Manning gets the nod over Osweiler even though Osweiler has done an excellent job to end the season.
The result: After Denver gets a phantom call for offensive PI, KC runs out the clock for a 14-10 win. Denver ends up letting Osweiler walk to a division rival and that team promptly becomes the team to beat for the next 5 years.
Long-term: Denver goes into a nosedive and doesn't win a playoff game for 15-20 years
