Last year Seattle went all in and mortgaged the future somewhat to win a super bowl.
Denver went all in and mortgaged the future even moreso to win the super bowl this year. You bet they have great talent in a lot of positions and are poised to win it all. The good news is, you might have a chance to watch Peyton Manning lose yet another super bowl to yet another NFC team. |

If so I am mistaken. I know they dumped Dumevil's salary, but the guys they signed, I had thought they mortgaged the future with creative accounting to sign all those talented guys. You are saying they didn't?
OK. News to me. Well, good luck replacing Manning when he retires... |

OK, looks like you are right but on the flip side, they will have to dismantle the talent on the team to stay salary-cap healthy. So these guys are basically rentals. But yes, smart way to go all-in without necessarily mortgaging the future.
Things get a little sticky if they don't make the Super Bowl this year and have to try and retain all that talent for 2015. Then they are stuck. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-...spending-spree |

Cap space be damned. Denver hit a home run when they signed peyton. And if they get two superbowls out of him, that's how many the chiefs have been in total..since existence. Even as I type this out, and I can see just how truly pathetic the chiefs have been over the years. |
