Do you remember a couple years ago when Osweiler led the Broncos to the playoffs when Manning was hurt? Manning came back and won the Super Bowl that year.
This year, Osweiler signed a huge contract with the Browns taking Jonny Football's place as the Cleveland QB.
Well, guess what? The Browns cut Osweiler before this season began still owing him about $15 million in guaranteed money over the next 4 seasons.
The Broncos took advantage of that, re-signing Osweiler to a one year deal worth $775,000. The Browns will have to pay him the rest.
So the Broncos basically borrowed Osweiler to the Texans and Browns for a little more than a season and then got him back at a bargain basement price.
Elway, the Bronco's GM is looking more and more like a business genius. Even if Osweiler is a complete bust, he's not costing the Broncos anything.
With the Twins now in a fade pattern themselves, I'm kind of getting pumped for football.
Go Vikings!!
