In your honest opinion. We all know Peyton wasn't really a factor in that game. Would they have won if THill was leading the way?
 
Absolutely. No doubt in my mind.
 
Even if yes, it doesnt really tell us anything. I think they would ve won with half the starting QBs in the league. I'll tell you this though, they wouldnt have won if you replaced Von Miller with Olivier Vernon, or any of our defensive player for that matter...
 
The bigger question is whether the Broncos would have won with Dallas Thomas and Jason Fox.
 
Absolutely. Look at Tanny's worst games this year, and they were statistically similar to Peyton's Superbowl. But it's hardly a fair or viable analysis to make. You gotta get there first, and Manning is on his last leg. Manning was just there to manage the game for the Broncos. He pretty much did that. Overall though you still need a QB that makes the whole team better. Winning a SB the way the Broncos just did (without great QB play) is the exception, not the rule.

I don't think they could even have won the Puppy Bowl with those two on their O-line.

EXACTLY. That defensive line is what makes the Broncos great. We were supposed to have that.......
 
The QB threw for 144 yards and an INT, I don't understand how they would have lost with any QB. I think I could have been the QB and won that game.
 
without a doubt.... They would have won with ANY QB in the league right now..
 
The real question is do the Panthers win with Tannehill at QB?
 
they won with the worst qb in the nfl

How would Cam have done on the Dolphins? He went into the fetal position without good protection and showed no competitiveness. Yay he can jump over a pile when things go well. When Albert, James and/or Pouncey are hurt, and Dallas Thomas, the rookie from ASU, and Fox are in front of him, Cam would not look good.

The Dolphins need a reliable swing tackle and effective guards. Or else no one, not even the league MVP is going to be effective. At least 17 competes. He wouldn't let the ball lay in front of him and puss out.
 
one thing stood out this post season .


No QB was able to overcome constant pressure .


What cam and Brady went through the past weeks .... Tannehill goes through every week . That thought that every time you step back you KNOW you have barely any time to let go of the ball .

Brady was the only guy that ALMOST overcame it . And Brady is well ... Brady and he couldn't .

Point is, let's get Tannehill a decent o line. Not too 5 .. Just serviceable ... And I'm positive we'll see a different quarterback .
 
Remember, way back when... the Panthers asked us to tone down the practice?

When I was watching the Super Bowl, I often wondered... "Why haven't they asked the Broncos to tone down the defense a little?".

But that was when our guys were playing hard. That all changed as soon as the season started. Probably just stage fright?
 
Peyton was awful, he just kept giving other teams a chance. I think Denver could have won with Ryan.
