Is Manning worth it?

[def90]

Thats an odd stance, explain...

Having not been born and raised here (hey, at least I'm not from Cali) Denver has a really odd infatuation with Elway. I am sure Elway and Bowlen have a love child in a closet somewhere. Elway hasn't done a thing other than rent his name to any business that comes along with enough money. As a player he was a slightly above average QB.. I think most of his success was due to the team around him. No one here will ever criticize anything Elway will say or do. Jake Plummer still has the best record since Elway and the people here hated him just because he wasn't Elway. John Fox is a slightly above average head coach that is just good enough to keep his job and like Elway is primarily successful because of the coaches below him.

I see it playing out like this.. Elway will continue to hog the media spotlight, the team will always be about him, he will make bad decisions that absolutely no one will question, the Broncos will continue to be just good enough but yet not quite good enough to finish the season. Elway will be the Jerry Jones of the Broncos.

I grew up in Minnesota so I know what that is all about.
