Who has the best chance of knocking Denver out of the postseason?

In his first 8 seasons in Dallas, he played as a LB and in that final season he was moved to DE - which is what he plays now in Denver.

So, he gets dropped by Dallas - mostly viewed as a bad idea by everyone.

Denver signs him and everyone says he's broken and torn up. Maybe it's because I live in Dallas and was more familiar with Ware, but at the time, I thought it was a hell of a signing as did many Cowboys fans (most didn't like him being gone).

It's not like they took a 37 year old DE and are somehow getting him to produce.

As I recall the local media in Dallas was calling it a good move because JJ had a bad habit of hanging on to good players for too long and they needed to clear cap space. JJ finally got it through his thick skull that the Cowboys were not a player or two away from a Super Bowl and they needed to clear cap space if they were going to try to rebuild. The signing was a risky move by Denver at the time, but the upside was too great not to take a chance.

Oh I'm sure there were many that said the guy pushing 10 years wasn't worth the big $... I just don't believe he fell into 'brokedick' status.
