After weeks of speculation of where Peyton Manning will play in the 2012 NFL season, the quarterback that many consider to be the best in the history of the NFL has decided to join the Denver Broncos. To me this was a surprising choice since the Broncos already had a young quarterback, Tim Tebow, who lead the team to a division championship and one playoff win against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Denver was one of the first cities Manning visited after being released from the Indianapolis Colts. Manning spent a lot of quality time in Denver and was very impressed by the organization which is probably one of the main reasons he has chosen the Denver Broncos. I am excited to see how the Broncos and Manning perform this season following a truly special season the program had a year ago with Tim Tebow.
Tebow
Since the Denver Broncos signed Peyton Manning to their roster they decided to remove Tim Tebow from the roster. The Denver Broncos made a trade agreement with the New York Jets to trade Tim Tebow in exchange for a fourth round pick. When I heard this news I could not believe how little the Broncos settled with to trade Tim Tebow . I mean is he only worth a fourth round draft pick? I don't believe so. The Jets recently signed a multi-million dollar contract extension with their current quarterback Mark Sanchez which surprises me as to why the Jets would want Tebow. There may be a battle for the starting position at quarterback for the Jets come this season. No matter what, I hope Tim Tebow does well because I truly enjoyed watching him play last year.
I was wondering how this was going to turn out. I don't watch Football much so don't life at my conclusion. I thought if Manning became the quarter back for the broncos, that would mean Tebow would have to take a back seat to him while Manning played.
ReplyDeleteI kinda feel bad that Manning had to switch teams...I still don't understand why though. Care to explain?
