I honestly wouldn't even mind the idea of having Osweiler start a couple of games this year to help save Manning for the playoffs. Back in the days of Elway he missed 4 games during one of our Super Bowl runs and thankfully we had a quality back up that went 4-0 in those games but it also meant that Elway then was 100% come playoff time. I would rather be 10-6 say come playoff time and maybe the 3 seed with Manning 100% than 12-4 and the 1 seed but Manning 70%. Playoffs are where you need your top players at their best not regular season. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this did happen as Kubiak was the OC for Elway during the Super Bowl years and knows what it means to have your top QB in top shape for the playoffs.

It will be Oz that guides Broncos to that goal and not Peyton. I think it's inevitable that Manning will struggle somewhat but because of a good run game and D, Denver will be above .500 after 5 gms and Kubes will insert Brock and he will end up leading Denver to the promised land. I just don't think Manning will be able to run this system effectively enough for starters and more than likely his body won't hold up for very long either. There is just to much work in this system at the Qb level for a 39 yr old guy. I know it's a stretch for OZ to pull it off but I think it's even more of a stretch to think Manning can sustain a competitive and healthy season as well. Just my thoughts.
