Peyton Manning vs. Romeo Crennel

[Ryfo18]

Knowing that Crennel has fared well against Peyton Manning, I was curious as to how well. Here's what I found.

In 9 games vs. Romeo Crennel:

CMP/ATT: 197/322 (61.2%) (career: 64.9%)
Y/A: 6.64 (career: 7.6)
TD/INT: 9 TDs / 14 INTs (career: 399 TDs / 198 INTs)
QB Rating: 71.92 (career: 94.9)
Record: 3-6
Points per game: 17

I'll take Crennel vs. Peyton any day of the week!

And that's when Peyton had Marvion Harrison and Reggie Wayne to throw to. They won't be in Denver

I also think Denver will be good, but I think it's going to take some time for the offensive unit to come together. Peyton was so good with Indy because of a couple reasons. One of them being that they had all played mostly together as a unit so there was a lot of chemistry between them. Sure they could add Clark and Saturday but that's a far cry from being Indy, and Peyton expects a lot from his O linemen, their pre snap stances and holding in awkward positions while he does all his motions and play changing. The Donks aren't used to that, and will def take some time for them to get where HE wants them. I just hope that him coming to the AFC West and our hopeful resurgence as a good team will shut all the people who keep calling it a weak and mediocre division up. Remember when we used to be called one of the toughest divisions?......

I agree with MMO in the fact that Denver will be good. There is no way Manning signed without upper brass obligations/commitments to be upheld for bettering the team.

Also, if that team could rally around Tebow, I am more than certain that they rise even higher for this HOF QB.

[matthewschiefs]

They already have a good running game something peyton has never had, i imagine fox will trade for jon stewart and they already have a good line. They should be signing jeff saturday so that improves it that much more. Denver is no joke Matt, they will be good

Never said that they were a joke. But Romeo shut down Peyton with 2 way better WRs then he will have in Denver

Who were the DB's when Manning faced them and what were the dates? Looks like Picks are what killed him.

I logged in for the first time in forever just to say how awesome that is. I knew Manning had consistently struggled against Romeo Crennel defenses, but didn't know the exact numbers. Thanks Ryfo.

I agree. Manning's offense is very complicated and by the time the Broncos get it down, they nay be out of the race for the AFC West.

I think the biggest reason that the Broncos signed Manning was so they could get rid of Tebow without the fans turning against them. But he will be good and having a HOF QB is just a bonus.

Well, Manning has been without a top running game because he runs a pass-happy offense.

And it is likely that the Broncos offense will have to adjust to Manning's offensive style, more than Manning will to Fox's offense.

And, either way, that adjustment may not come easy.

I do expect The Broncos to be very tough. But not out of the gates. I will not be picking them to win the division.

So our opposition this year at starter in the division will be Peyton Manning, Philip Rivers and Carson
Palmer... wow. I hope our defensive backfield is as good as I envision it, I am confident, thanks for the op stats Ryfo.

Plus, Manning never had a good Defense during his time in Indy, denver has a decent D

[Bike]

The very first game of the year is VS donks at Arrowhead. I believe Manning will have realized his mistake by halftime...

I don't think the schedule has been released yet. But I think at some point Manning will regret choosing Denver.

Ty law, he picked him off twice for us in our playoff game in indy when we couldnt score inside the 5.
