I am not talking about the talent of the personnel. 

 

Its about keeping things simple. 

 

If anything a Manning ought to be / could be running tons of formations and personnel groupings with his experience and arm.

 

More teams should keep things simple and instead of trying to run many looks become great and efficient at one or a few things. 

 

Manning lines up with the same personnel set and simply kills you with his audibles and route combos. Team doesnt know what he is gonna do as they get the same look 90% of the game.

ehh, the reason they are effective like that is because of the talent they have.

 

Negative. Manning would be doing that with scrubs. 

 

When you do the same thing over and over it becomes second nature. Its the reason why they are so efficient. 

 

The defense gets the same look every time and has no clue what is coming. Draw? Slant? Comeback? Out route? Drags? Curl? etc.

It has everything to do with the versatility and skillset of those guys - it allows Manning to maximize the things he does at the line.

Missing the point. 

 

That would mean the reverse. Someone like Manning should / could be able to run tons of different formations and personnel groupings. 

 

You generally want to keep things simple for lesser players. 

 

When actually that is why some of the best QBs are so good. They keep things simple and kill teams with simple proven route combos.

It's not only about if the QB can do it, but about maximizing what your players can do.  If you don't need to disguise routes or play fancy because your QB can fit the ball into crazy windows or is basically just able to read a defense as well as any OC possibly could it changes everything.

How does one disguise a route? The defense has no clue what route each WR/TE/RB will take before the snap especially if every formation looks the same. 

 

You can disguise a play (pass / run) ie come out in a 1wr jumbo set and do a play action pass or come about in 4wr and run the draw. 

 

Manning doesnt need to fit the ball into crazy windows most the time because he is making the right calls and reads before snap. 

 

Obviously your qb needs to be able to read a defense and or your OC needs to be able to decipher what the D is running. 

 

Then again they have to do that regardless. Might as well keep things simple and get good - great at one thing than try to master many things only to be great at nothing.

I think you are wildly underestimating what having Manning as a QB does for a team.  I also think that if you were correct, more teams would play the way you suggest.  But perhaps I'm wrong.  

 

The Broncos play to their strengths.  Most teams try to do that.  For some teams, that involves more varied formations, because of the type of players they have.

      For the right price… but if they did they would be pulling a Tepper, because they are trying to evaluate Shough and taking his best WR away is making it hard on him.

      see we are just not going to agree - unless you change your mind lol. Mine isn’t changing without hard evidence that Morgan supported it like a puppy dog.  He was the assistant. If he disagreed and said so, and they didn’t listen, he has to pick his battles. If he continued to oppose he is looking for work. He knows this stuff. I think he knows Bryce is a super long shot just because he faced NFL QBs and probably would have salivated at the thought of Bryce on the other side in his playing days.  Anyway I am going to judge him on what he has done since he’s been the man with the title.  I also would bet a stack that there were conditions placed on him and on Canales re Bryce Young. Can’t prove it. I am not supporting the Brooks pick, and rationalizing the XL pick. And rationalizing the Brooks pick to an extent, on the (assumed by me) mandate that was a condition of the hiring. Which was ‘sell out’ to make Bryce work. This year. Now. (2024) That is what those top two picks were.  IMO. They failed, id judged today.  I think Morgan is doing a great job really, once he got his feet under him and was allowed to do his job.  Fixing this team while accommodating Tepper/Bryce, more than a two year fix.    Anyhow I have beer to drink will check back later.
