(I'll try and find the tweet from the NFL Reporter early on that stated this) The only reason that Denver was ever mentioned as a possibility was because of what went down with Elway / Manning, so the lazy reporting just ran with the "Cousins to Denver" narrative early on. He was never seriously considering playing there. I don't blame him. Not much to work with and no confidence that there will be anytime soon.

You're addressing my comment wrong... I was referring to the Henne comparison. I completely understand why Cousins chose MIN and Denver very likely wasn't going to guarantee all that money. Yes, MIN has a stronger team with better success the last two years. You won't get an argument from me there. Suggesting Denver is void of talent or the ability to compete for 10 years, considering they have $25M in space left to make some moves and the draft... that's a bit off in my opinion. Denver can right a lot of wrongs this offseason, and Case can be successful.
