Right...that's why Doom fired his agent right afterwards. No. Doom's agent ****ed that up and sat on it all day.

You have no idea what you're talking about. First off, Elway doesn't negotiate or write up contracts, Mike Sullivan does. The Broncos submitted their final proposal early that morning and gave Elvis a deadline. Elvis didn't get back to them until an hour and a half AFTER that deadline, Elway and Fox were in a personnel meeting when Mike Sullivan came in and told them that Elvis was going to take the offer.

We went 13-3 with Manny starting 11 games last year... Yeah, I'm pretty sure we'll be just fine.

Because playing center is exactly like playing guard

Do you think Ramirez replacing Koppen will have any effect on how this season plays out for the AFCW?

I might.

One bad center/QB exchange could affect where your team is seeded in the playoffs (if at all), could affect the outcome of a game, etc.

Considering that Koppen is gone for the season and Walton is reportedly lost for the season, if something happens to Ramirez, the Broncos are in worse shape at center.

I read on Orangemane that since the oline coach secretly thought Ramirez was actually better than Koppen, they essentially lost their backup center when Koppen broke. Thus, because their starter should have been the backup center anyway, the Broncos actually improved when Koppen was lost for the season.

Manning calls the protections and Manny has been our backup center for a few years now. If you're worried about QB/center exchanges that shouldn't be a problem, Manning will make sure they rep it until Ramirez can do it in his sleep.

Having it happen early so they have time to work together is a plus. Can't deny that it's not a best case scenario though.

It'll be an adjustment for Man Ram, but I think he'll be able to handle it and do a fine job.

I hope so. Center is entirely different than Gaurd. Center runs the OL.
