My favorite was watching him whine line a baby when the Vikings completely destroyed Dallas in the playoffs 3 seasons ago! Crying on the field cause they thought we were running up the score! You know the game before the saints had a bounty on sir Brett Favre! And my purple squad choked! Still, was worth it smacking Dallas like that!

Hasn’t been a NFL caliber player for awhile now. Last year he was only good for giving bulletin board comments to opposing teams and then getting swept against those teams. Stay classy Keith.

Is there a new retirement home being built in Denver?

No one is getting burned here. The Broncs picked him up for 2 bottles of aleve and a six-pack of hungry-man tv dinners. A fair price in my book.

If not for the raiders getting lucky and blocking two chief field goals in one game the chiefs would have won the division.

Broncos are bringing in everyone & anyone that once was a good football player (and aren’t anymore IMO)…clearly a “win now” mentality…maybe even they are wondering behind closed doors how many years Manning has left

They signed him for his amazing pregame speeches brother.

I don’t like you making comments using my name. Putting ‘brother’ at the end of every sentence doesn’t make you a Real American!

Wow, really surprised by this move — great guy — good teammate — but kinda on the old side now. He’d make an excellent teacher for the rookies, so why not hire him as a coach?

Not a bad depth move with DJ Williams always being suspended

Bad move…In a game the Birds had to win, in his last season with the Birds (coincidence?) 3rd and like 25, Brooking bites on a curl route, and the qb promptly throws a first down over his head. Mental mistake, Falcons lose, no playoffs blah blah blah. He’s only gottten worse in the years hence (pretentious I know) why waste any amount of money on a guy past his prime who supposedly gives good speeches?

As a Cowboys fan, I can say that the Broncos got burned on this deal. Brookings had a great heart, but his talent has passed him by.

As an Eagles fan, I can say that the Cowboys got burned signing a 36 year old Swiss Cheese brain Zach Thomas in 08′, with a great heart and talent passed by long ago… then signing Keith Brooking.

The slow old white linebacker!

@lamontjoe

how do you know they got burned on the deal when they didnt even say how much theyre paying him?

They have guys that can start at LB (Mays, Woodyard, williams when he’s back, Irving, Miller, maybe Danny Trevathan). I dont see the harm in hiring a vet who had no interest from other teams (aka, no leverage to get a good contract)

How in the world can you possibly know if they got burned in this deal when you have no idea whatsoever what the contract is?

Brookings has the look of someone getting ready to ask if they can borrow a 20 until next Friday.

Just a depth LB with experience.

He’s a 2 down LB at best, that’s why the Cowboys cut the dead weight. Don’t really see this move working for them unless they just need a veteran with a vocal presence on the defense.

ha that gotta try to patch up that terrible defense that got destroyed by the patriots in the playoffs. Funny how all these bronco fans sipping koolaid think manning instantly makes them super bowl contenders. Broncos way overachieved last year. If not for the raiders getting lucky and blocking two chief field goals in one game the chiefs would have won the division. the chiefs will take the afc west this year with there best players returning.
