I wonder how much they have made off of Peyton versus what they paid?

Considering what he has around him on offense, this could be the best season of Peyton's career. In Indy, he always had some combination of Faulk, James, Harrison, Clark, and Wayne. But this Denver team doesn't have a single top-tier playmaker at any offensive skill position (although I think Moreno could develop into that kind of player). If they can add a top-shelf WR this offseason, it's scary how good they could be next year.
Defensively, they're very, very good- maybe even elite. Von Miller is going to be a superstar for years to come.
Overall, I expect them to make a deep playoff run, but I don't think this Broncos team has quite enough to win it all- this year.

Merymon Demarious is a very solid, if not elite, WR. But yeah, other than that, not much. Denver does have a running game and a good defense though. In fact, some observers think this Bronco D is better than any Peyton ever had in Indy. D does not matter in the NFL anymore, apparently (NE made the Super Bowl last year with the 31st ranked D), but if you have both offense and defense, that has to be a good thing. |

Demarious Thomas has been a huge find for the Broncos. Watching Him at Georgia Tech,I never thought He would be a great player in the NFL. I don't think He caught 30 passes at GT

Do you think that Peyton should get the Most Improved Player award?

No, he was really great before the injury, so....  |

BTW, with Houston's loss to the Vikings today, the Broncos are in pretty good position to steal homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. All it will take is for Denver to beat KC at home next week, and Houston to lose at Indy.

True, I noticed that. I don't know if the Colts can beat the Texans or not. In fact, I will be holding my nose and rooting for the Texans, because they already have the division locked up and if they win, New England has to go on the road in the second round no matter what.  Cincy will likely lose to Baltimore and have to face NE in the first round, while the Colts go to Baltimore. I would rather the Colts face Baltimore anyway. It's a really wild scenario, in that the Texans play the Colts, and Cincy plays Baltimore. A rematch in the first round is a real possiblity.... |

o, he was really great before the injury, so.. When he first came back after his surgery, he wasn't doing that well. Several people said he should have retired. He's lighting up the field now. |

his arm is still not "right" but he has adapted and is managing the game and throwing the ball well. Watch his throwing motion when he has to get the ball 25-30 yards. It is weird, if you remember the Peyton of five years ago. |

Even Peyton with half an arm is better than most if not all. |

Not "most improved," but Comeback Player of the Year, maybe. Adrian Peterson is having a monster year coming off knee (ACL) surgery, so he has a good shot at that award too. |
