Here’s some of the latest Denver Broncos rumors and news for the week.
Colin Kaepernick Harder Opponent than Peyton Manning?
A report from MMQB says that a number of coaches would prefer game-planning to play against Peyton Manning over San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
“At last year’s combine, just a few weeks after the Super Bowl, I asked a dozen NFL coaches, Conceptually, who would you rather game-plan for and face: Manning or Kaepernick? A solid majority said they'd prefer to face Manning,” the report said. “Wow. A man who many—and especially those inside the NFL—agree is one of the five greatest quarterbacks of all time feels less threatening to opponents than a callow fourth-year pro who is still not always comfortable reading the field.”
It adds that none of the coaches said Kaepernick is a better quarterback, but he’s “more stressful” to play against.
“Manning might be able to cut a defense with greater depth and regularity than Kaepernick, but at least the defense knows in what ways he can cut them. With Kaepernick, there’s a terrifying unpredictability,” it adds.
