Peyton Manning ruined the Colts and Broncos franchises because he covered up their lack of talent
I blame Peyton Manning is what I do... I think Peyton Manning has currently ruined two franchises. At least Indianapolis and Denver. ... What has happened is like he is so advanced in understanding what you're trying to do to him as a defense that basically he takes marginal players... four and 12 talent or eight and eight talent and makes it 12 and four every year. And so you as a general manager, as a franchise, I get a little bit more enamored with your talent than you should be... all of a sudden that guy leaves and you realize we suck.

How many red zone interceptions are going to be in the Bengals-Broncos game? Over under, I'm sitting at two and a half. They should actually change the rules for that game, and if you get to the 20-yard line, it's a touchdown.
Kevin Durant is currently like a divorced dad with visitation rights to the torch in Oklahoma City
So Kevin Durant did an interview today, and he said that when he hit that three in the NBA Finals, that to him felt like a pass the torch moment. But also in the interview, he says that he's still OKC. So his blood is still Oklahoma City. So the way I'm reading this is that the torch now, it belongs to Kevin Durant, but it resides in Oklahoma City. So Kevin Durant has visitation rights to the torch at his old place. He's like a divorced dad.

View profileThe Broncos' defensive struggles against Buffalo are a bigger concern than Jarrett Stidham's ability
I'm far less concerned about Jarrett Stidham than I am about the way our defense played against Buffalo. Our defense got run through, I mean, and I thought we got out executed, out game-planned, out schemed as a defense.
Sam Darnold is playing with incredible maturity and focusing on wins over stats
I watched him throw the ball away. Here is a guy that has grown in maturity, that has used all that kind of pain and frustration... to his advantage. He's not worried about putting up stats, he's worried about wins. And he is looking at it from a standpoint, the only way my team that's playing so well right now loses is if I screw it up.
It's my duty to 'shake it off' on the floors of airplane bathrooms to punish people who walk in with just socks
I watch people get up in their socks and walk into the bathroom... I feel it's my duty to just shake it, shake it up, even it out. Just get the little, few little drops here and there just to let you know that if you wear your socks in there, you're coming home with urine on them.
