Peyton “looked real good” throwing to new Broncos teammates
Posted by Michael David Smith on March 26, 2012, 3:53 PM EDT

As he settles in with the Broncos, Peyton Manning is learning the rules of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, including that he can work out with teammates, but only away from the team’s facilities and outside the watchful eyes of the coaches. And that’s exactly what Manning did today.

Lindsay H. Jones of the Denver Post reports that Manning took snaps from center J.D. Walton and threw passes to wide receiver Eric Decker and tight end Julius Thomas during a session at a Denver-area high school, and afterward Decker said he liked what he saw.

“He looked real good, though he probably won’t admit that he’s feeling good or feeling back to the way he wants to be,” Decker said.

Decker said Manning is trying to get comfortable with his new teammates now, and that the players who were on the roster last year are talking to him about the offensive concepts the Broncos employed — even though the offense will be quite a bit different with Manning running it in 2012.

“Just some drill work, talking through stuff, so he gets familiar with the verbage and the calls,” Decker said. “The biggest thing is he wanted to get a feel for us, and a feel for being under center.”

The Denver Post published 23 photos from today’s session. To the extent that you can tell anything from a still photo of a guy throwing a pass in sweats and a T-shirt, Manning looks pretty much like he has always looked.

He looks pretty thin to me...not that I've looked at any comparison pictures.

Have no fear Chiefs fans, yeah, cuz The Macho Man is gonna snap Manning's neck like a Slim Jim, oooh yeeeah

CoMoChief · 07-27-2012, 01:18 PM

I fully expect Peyton Manning to be Peyton Manning.

Thus Denver will probably win the division....he's just that good, and it saddens me that he's a Bronco, esp since the Chiefs and 49ers were his 2 best options for a legit SB run.

True. It doesn't guarantee that he will improve. But there's no reason to think he would be worse than 2009 or 2010.

Watch the video. The neck is going to be an issue. He will suffer another neck injury when Tamba body slams his ass . The only concern was nerve regeneration. The nerves have regenerated. Peyton Manning is going to go down before game six.

Ted Theodore Logan · 07-27-2012, 01:22 PM

So when do they plan to send pressure at him while he throws for the media?

The neck doesn't have to be the issue. He is going to get hit hard in the shoulder, arm, knees, etc. At his age, each time he hits the ground may mean 2-3 games on the sideline. It will happen.

**notorious** · 07-27-2012, 01:27 PM

Yay, here's to watching Peyton sing out a bunch of horseshit at the line before the snap, watching the Denver O-Line tackle the pass rush, and defensive holding or illegal contact if a DB farts on the receiver.

I am already getting pissed at the unavoidable.

Prior to having surgery Peyton Manning never missed a start in the NFL. Manning will be fine. I am not worried at all about his health. I would not be surprised if he played out the entire contract and if he doesn't it will be because he wanted to retire after winning the Super Bowl, not because he got injured.

He can't win another ring with a white coach.

It's true though and it's funny how the neck wasn't a problem when it looked like the Chiefs were going to go after him.

Bullshit. You'll be extremely suprised.
