So it seems it's official, Peyton Manning is now the newest member of the Denver Broncos. Tebow time in the mile high city is over, leading to oh so many question. Will Manning's bullet passes travel even faster in the thinner air? Are the Broncos now legitimate contenders? Where will Tebow wind up? Who will call the shots in Denver? And does that dude really need to wear a barrel to every Broncos game?
The move is, no offense Tebow faithful, an obvious upgrade at the most important position on the field. How much influence did John Elway have on this decision? He wants someone who can play the position as he envisioned it and watching Tim Tebow at times must have made him want to throw on his uniform and show the kid how it's done. It is clearly difficult to follow in the steps of a legend, unless of course you are one, and now Peyton will try to match #7's heroics and lead the Broncos to the promised land. The question remains however does he have enough talent around him to do so. And is he healthy enough to perform at such a level? The broncos were, barely, a playoff team without him last year so will they take that next step. Signing with an AFC team leave the Manning Bowl possibility in place, all be not necessarily all that likely, but will be entertaining nonetheless.
On the flip side the prospect of Tim Tebow returning to Florida where he is a legend has many fans there very excited and we will wait and see where he ends up. He is a proven winner, despite what the critics may say about his abilities he can help win games and is well respected by his teammates. So let the drama unfold, because in Denver, the sky's the limit.
