Peyton Manning and the snow

[HomerChampless]

So much of Denver's game is their offense, and so much of Denver's offense is Manning's passing offense, with most times 5 guys in pass patterns. Is Denver going to eventually need an enclosed stadium to 'protect' Manning from the elements? Is home field advantage not going to turn out to be a home field advantage for Manning and Denver in December?

With any luck the dome can get finished prior to Peyton retiring.

The weather isn't as bad in Denver as you'd think. The average high in Dec/January is 46 degrees and the precipitation is less than an inch for each month.

haha, really?

How old is their current stadium? 10-15 years?

How long does it take to construct a new stadium? 2-3 years?

How many years does Peyton have left in the tank? 4-5 years?

Ask yourself these questions and then ask yourself if you still think this thread was a good idea.

Tom Brady and NE run the same type of offense in NE as Manning in Denver. Denver @ NE this weekend... Denver and NE let their offenses play defense (keep the other's offense off the field) Why am I concerned with Denver's offense in the snow but as much NE's? I've seen Brady be successful in the snow, but I can't think of 1 time Manning's offense was successful in the snow... Maybe Manning has learned...Just wonder if Denver is all that pro sportscasters (and gamblers) crack them up to be...

Yeah, Denver is a desert and all... It's real high up, though. My bro lives in Denver. In winter, it can be 60 degrees one day and 30 degrees the next. I've seen too many football games played in Denver close to Thanksgiving and Christmas that were snow laden.
