Chiefs fan here, thought I would disclose that before posting
Just curious if it has been covered somewhere about Peyton playing at altitude?
I'm not a medical expert, but from watching the games it seems like Manning plays better at Mile High (more than just a home-field).
Am I just imagining it that he has more power in his throws at altitude? (More than other quarterbacks seem to get there).
Apologies if it has already been covered, I just figured Broncos fans would be the ones to ask. Curious if something about playing half his games per year at higher altitude would have influenced his decision for medical reasons? |

He hasn't had a great deal of zip on his throws all year. Sure, he can throw the ball further at Mile High just every other QB in the NFL, but I wouldn't say he has more zip. _________________ 20 TIMES, 20 TIMES MAN UNITTTTTEEDDD
