I would love to see the Denver Broncos to win the Super Bowl for Champ Bailey, no player deserves this more.

Maybe this guy can learn about class from Manning. I love Peyton and hope he wins another super bowl. But is there any other player people think its ok to attack.

Taking over that team at 1-4 and putting them in the playoffs. Td to int ratio of 17-9 after about 1 season of play. So what if he cant throw a spiral.
And never a bad word to say even about his critics?

Trent Dilfer never even got this disrespect.

“a quarterback who had limited throwing ability”

In the NFL, that’s the equivalent of a running back who can’t run or a wide receiver with only one hand.

“Hey this guy is a great NASCAR driver. Sure, he’s blind, but he’s got great intangibles.”

Without the relentless publicists and the religious right, Tebow would be selling peanuts in the stands.

This is far more of a knock on Jay Cutler and Jake Plummer than it is on Tebow.

Does anyone really trust him though? Denver played 3 good teams this year and laid an egg every time (Houston, Patriots and Atlanta). They won’t see no KC, SD or OAK in the playoffs

I am the biggest Bronco fan on earth, and I have been since watching “The Drive” on a 12 inch black & white TV as a boy. I know that being not only a Bronco fan, but a football fan in general, we tend to have a short memory. Perfect example is the fact that alot of people have forgotten what Tebow did for the Denver Broncos last season. Say what you will about his talent level, or his throwing motion, or any of that crap, but what he did was truly remarkable, & he gave every ounce of heart he had to turn the team around after a horrendous start. Clearly, Manning is the better QB, and I feel great about Denver’s chances in the post season this year. My only worry is the running game. If knowshow can be the back he was drafted to be, Ive got a feeling the Broncos could very well be in New Orleans in FEB… but I agree with a few other posters, give the dogging Tebow a rest!! He created magic in Mile High last year, talent or no talent.

Big Ben will own this team come January. Cold weather and outdoors will have manning crying like a lil schoolgirl. He’s used to a dome and I don’t mean his forehead. Although that is quite a dome!!!

We weren’t the ones who listed Brad Johnson as one of Chump Bailey’s former deficient QB’s. As a matter of fact, Shaun King has the same amount of rings as bobble head Manning. Possession is nine tenths of the law after all.

All of you clowns keep stating how brad Johnson has the same amount of rings as Peyton, so what!! By your logic that would make both of them better than Marino, since he doesn’t have a ring. Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer both had great defenses when they won the super bowl, something Peyton has never had before.

If the broncos win this week in Baltimore, they should have a serious win streak heading into the playoffs. With the way the defense is playing they are going to be a very dangerous team in the playoffs.

Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer have one more superbowl win than Dan Marino. Feel stupid yet? You should for posting such a worthless argument. TEAMS win games

Champ Bailey: It feels good to have a great REGULAR SEASON quarterback in Denver
————–

I know several clowns like you. Until Manning plays defense, your never-played-football comments ring hollow.

—-
He doesn’t have to play defense, Clown!!!

He wasn’t playing defense when he threw the pick in the SB that caused his team to lose. Oh but I guess it was the WR fault.

I’m so sick of that argument ” Payton doesn’t play defense.
It’s a fact the he has been sub par in the postseason compared to his regular season performances.
It’s a Fact not opinion that he does not perform well in cold weather.

Two things:
1) The QB they had last year won the first playoff game they’ve had in many years.

2) Brad Johnson has as the same amount of Super Bowl rings as Peyton Manning… FYI….

just 1 more reason for me to hope they are 1 and done come playoff time.. nobody said Tebow was the greatest qb ever but he is the one that turned that team around last year and won the division and a playoff game for them. does not matter how he did it or how he looked doing it the fact is he took over a team that was 1-5 and with the same players on offense and defense won. stop making excuses and just accept the fact it happened. nobody is saying he is better than manning but stop acting like Tebow was the worst player ever and did nothing to help the the franchise.

They had a great quarterback last year. Younger and for a lot less money too.

Great QB? If tebow was great, why is he not starting? Here a saying for you: you can buy a cheap Suzuki with low miles and it’ll get you from point a to point b but it will take you longer to get there. Or you could go all out and get a older Ferrari with all the bells and whistles that’ll get you there faster.

Peyton is a bit like the Atlanta Braves of the 90′s. Incredible to watch but fell a bit short of expectations in the post season.

Still, I’d rather have the Braves level of team than the Rockies and I’d rather have Manning over any of the Denver QB’s of recent memory…

Love Champ, but he’s barely Top 5. What are you, 19?

Mel Blount is the best cornerback ever. Anyone who began watching the NFL before ohhhhh 2001… knows that.

Geniusfan, are you a Brady worshiper or what? Only 28 different QBs have ever won a SB. There have been, dare I say, 1000 or more, other starting QBs in the league who have never played in one, much less were victorious. Manning is one of those 28. It’s elite company.

There were many doubters of Elway too after 3 SB losses even though he was a 1-man wrecking crew.

To the point of the article, I’m glad Denver has one of the best QBs ever to play the game taking snaps this season. They now have a realistic shot at a championship.

In the 2006 NFL season, Champ Bailey was targeted a grand total of 24 times the entire season by opposing Quarterbacks.

10 of them were intercepted. 0 went for TD’s

If that’s not the definition of a Shutdown Corner, I don’t know what is.

Deion and Champ are the only 2 corners deemed worthy of that title.

Not Revis, not Asomugha.

For what solution is Manning short-term? Winning a title? So if he does that this year or next it wasn’t worth it because it was a short-term solution? Get real dude. That is what it’s all about. It’s the ultimate goal.

—-

And if they don’t win a title (and they probably won’t) in 2 years they are back in the same spot , no title no QB.

The Broncos play a weak division. In the playoffs, Manning will choke up 4 int’s and they will be bounced by the 6th seed.

Champ finally has a real QB for the first time in his life. And no, Plummer, Cutler and Orton do not qualify as real QBs.
