Even If Broncos Fans Won't, Peyton Manning Will Be Rooting For Brock Osweiler

Peyton Manning, the all-time great (even if he wasn't so great last year) quarterback who regained his spot from Brock Osweiler in the starting lineup down the stretch of the Broncos' Super Bowl run last season, announced his retirement a few months ago. Today, he announced that he's a Houston Texans fan. Or, more accurately, that he'll be rooting for the Texans' new quarterback this year WHICH BASICALLY MEANS HE'S A TEXANS FAN AND HAS TURNED HIS BACK ON BOTH DENVER AND INDIANAPOLIS. TAKE THAT, BRONCOS AND COLTS FANS.

So let it be done. I mean, you didn't see Peyton give that kind of praise to Jim Sorgi, did you? Next stop: Super Bowl.
