No weapons in Washington! Just wait until he has Bolles blocking for him!

Elway didn’t have to overpay Manningstein because of the health concerns teams had. And the only reason Ware signed a team friendly deal, was because of Manningstein and the Super Bowl window he opened for players there.

That is not at all the situation for Denver now. Denver has a limited offense with a rag tag O-Line. The best FA QB on the market is not signing there unless he gets paid very well to do so.

IF he signs there, he’ll get a lot closer to 30 than 25. Bank on that.

I've said Denver would win the division with Cousins. I just don't think that Cousins will be able to beat Brady or Ben in the playoffs.

No way. He could get that elsewhere, but not in Denver.

Disagree.
1) Alex has proven that he can teach up a youngster.
2) Alex has proven that he can win some regular season ball games. He can get a team into the dance at least. Josh McCown not so much.

2 birds....one stone

Because it worked to a certain degree. It definitely turned the franchise around and got it headed the right direction. Exactly what he needs to do at the factory of sadness.

Both you and John Elway thought the same thing about Trevor Siemian this year. How’d that turn out?

Would've turned out just fine if the young QB behind him was where he was expected to be.

I don't know. Kaepernick, Murray, Bray, and Hogan are pretty terrible and the jury is still out on Mahomes.

Is going 9-7 instead of 6-10 really worth $17M and a 2nd round draft pick?

Or the other two on your roster

Dave Logan has also heard that Emmanuel Sanders is "as good as gone". Klis thinks they'll try to trade him and then release him.

To Browns fans? Their team went winless. They have been the laughingstock of the NFL for many years. If you told them they could go 9-7 this year and compete for a playoff spot and all it took was trading one of their many seconds for Alex and taking on his salary for one year, I’m pretty sure ALL of them would be in favor of that, as long as they knew they were working on developing their QBOTF behind him.
