It sounds like he wants more guaranteed money upfront, I don't blame him one bit. He essentially won them a SB and it is time to pay up.

That is what he wants.  Suh and some others got more, and I wouldn't say they are better than him.

Not just more, but A LOT more. The Broncos are offering Miller virtually the same overall money that Suh got,  but Suh got $60M guaranteed. The Broncos are only offering Miller $40M guaranteed. That's a huge difference and as we all know, the only thing that really matters in an NFL contract is the guaranteed money. 

The Broncos are guaranteeing the first two years of his deal. They'll probably have to guarantee the first three to get the deal done. The guy's only 27.  Seems a pretty safe bet for the donkeys to guarantee three.

If he's not there for the season opener I'll be pissed. Cause then Denver fans would try and make that an excuse as to why we demolished them. 

Who gives a poo what their fans think? A win is a win.

I blame the Giants for all this.  I don't give a poo about Von, but they completely screwed the market up by paying top5 money to a CB and DE who have never done anything.

F the Giants!  I hope they suck ass for the next decade.

 

KK's agent is prob going to be looking at that Vernon contract too...

      If his seat was hot enough for him to be fired 6 games in then you should've just fired him when you made the decision to draft a QB #1 overall. I don't think you go from "this is definitely our guy" to "you're fired in 6 games". Seems like there would be had to have been doubts going in and that's not a recipe for success for a rookie QB.

      I like to use the analogy that a high draft pick QB is like a new supercar. Great to have one except too often, one forgets that they are high maintenance. A bad team secures their car under a cheap tent, puts regular gas in the tank, services it at Pep Boys, and then blames the car for not working properly and proceeds to get another one.  At the least, Ward getting sacked 25 times already is a massive red flag. If you can't protect your rookie QB, you do not put him out there. Otherwise, it's taking your supercar and immediately spinning it right into a tree. A few survive that rough of a start. Most do not.

      I don't think there's any one size fits all answer. I think you play the rookie when A) you think he's ready and B) you think there's a reasonable expectation that the overall situation provides him an opportunity to be successful, not necessarily in terms of wins and losses but just in terms of giving him a fighting chance with surrounding talent. If you rush either one it's probably not gonna be pretty.
