Peyton Manning will not win more than 9 games or take the Broncos to the playoffs

Con's argumentation will be as follows1)Refutations2)UnderviewRefutations1. From 9/6/98 to 1/2/11, Peyton Manning has never missed a game as the Starting Quarterback for the Indeanapolis Colts. Peyton Manning is currently in second place for the most consecutive starts in the National Footall League. [1] This evidence shows Peyton Manning stamina, prowess, and ability to maintain himself throughout over 12 years, without a single game-ending injury. Manning's Doctor who performed the surgeries, Dr. Robert Watkins, has already cleared Peyton Manning to play, after weeks of deliberaton and hard thinking, he finally sent the OK to all of the NFL, because he was 100% sure Peyton Manning was ready to play once again. [2] Also, many quarterbacks have had surgery in the past few seasons and have come back healthy in a matter of weeks, whereas Manning has had months to recuperate. Michael Vick of the Philadelphia Eagles had broken Ribs twice last year, recieved surgery, and was back on the field. Many other quartbacks have recovered from injuries in such a short time, in comparison to Peyton Mannings long rest, easily allowing him to recover and play good as new2. I agree upon one thing, feel free to quote me, Peyton Manning did build the Indeanapolis Colts offense. But simply using this as an argument is not logical. Quarterbacks learn to adapt to the players that may come in, from those that leave. Even in Indeanapolis, When Marvin Harrison retired, who was the man to replace him, his main reciever alongside Reggie Wayne? A common misconception is Reggie Wayne is a Pro-Bowl Reciever. This is untrue. Looking at statistics, the only time Reggie Wayne has ever made the pro bowl has been when Manning has thrown for a certain number of yards, and how well Peyton Manning was doing. Pro is trying to argue that Manning relied on the team he created, but this is entirely untrue. In fact, it's quite the opposite, as we can all see through the Colts 2-14 Record and 0-8 Home record last year without Peyton Manning. [3] My opponents argument was Peyton Manning cannot adapt, however, looking at the team Manning had before him when he joined the league in 1998, he had immediate success. Also, Peyton Manning has always idolized John Elway, who is now his General Manager, and right by his side, further boosting his morale and creating a better environment. Also, the Broncos record 8-8 last year was amazing in that they were able to utilize a quarterback by the name of Tim Tebow, who had one of the lowest Quarterback Ratings in the National Football League, and still make the playoffs, and win and advance past the first round. Tebow only completed 45% of his passes, whereas Manning AVERAGES 70% or more. Simply look at the difference between Manning and Tebow, and you can see Manning easily trumps Tebow. This means, Manning will better utilize his wide recievers, better his entire team, because as stated before, Manning doesn't just make the team, he owns it. He can adapts to any and every situation, he can make an average wide reciever a Pro Bowler (This is seen through Reggie Wayne). There are many other factors as well, but they will all be cited in the Underview. [4] 3. I don't understand where my opponent clearly shows through statistical information that Mannings NEW divison is "Tough". If we look at statistics, and look at the Broncos Last Season, they won their division without going over .500 even. 8-8 was enough to win a seemingly "Tough" division? Judges and Football fans alike, we can all see the problem with calling a division where an 8-8 team makes it to the playoffs (not the Wildcard spot) "Tought". Also, my opponent states the Chargers know how to play football. The problem is, every team in the National Football League knows how to play football. Secondly, no evidence is shown from the Chiefs or the Chargers that either are good teams. A good team finishes with a winning record or makes the playoffs, we can see neither of these two teams fit this category. [3] (Look at the records for San Diego and KC) Not a Single team from the AFC West finished with a winning record, which proves the division isn't good. We can all see this will change with the introduction of Peyton Manning to the Denver Broncos, a team that turned a bad quarterback into a playoff quarterback, and Manning, a player that turns any reciever to a Pro-Bowler. 4. Schedules from this season and last season have no correlation. Certain teams may be good, this is an assumption. Looking at the Broncos then and now, we look at the clear differences between Peyton Manning and all of the National Football League's Quarterbacks. Peyton Manning currently Ranks #1 of all starting quarterbacks projected next season. Manning is a step well above that of Tim Tebow, and these assumptions are once again made using Tim Tebow, which you cannot compare to Peyton Manning. UNDERVIEWWeather- Many Quarterbacks prefer one type of weather over the other, Manning is no different. His homegames are now in Denver, Colorado, which has over 300 sunny days. Why is this important? Well, Manning does worse in Domes and closed areas than in sunny areas. Sunny Areas increase his win percentage by 60%, a major weather factor. [4] Chance to win another Superbowl- Manning is hardly in a good division, as stated earlier. Not a single team was able to brush past the Broncos to make the playoffs in the AFC West, and not a single team could even get past .500. Mannings division, in lamence terms is an easy one. One that will always give him a playoff spot, as he WILL achieve over 9 games, and it would appear as if 8-8 is enough to make the playoffs in this division. [4] New offense+ Old Defense= Super Bowl Contenders- Tim Tebow in 15 starts only scored over 20 point in 4 games, yet somehow made the playoffs. Why is this? The Defense of the Denver Broncos, already a top 10 defense in the league. Combine that with an average of 70% completions by Manning and a 60% boost to Passes and yardage on one of the 300 sunny days, and you have a superbowl contender, and currently, Manning and the Broncos went from a 1-60 chance (With Tebow) to a 1-8 Chance to win the superbowl according to ESPN Projections on Sportcenter.

By refuting all of Pro's arguments, Con has proven1) Peyton Manning will lead the Denver Broncos to the playoffsand 2) The Denver Broncos will finish at least 9-7The Underview is added information used to better refute Pro's case and strengthen Cons argumentation. The Underview is used to assess facts involved in the debate. Thank you all for taking the time to read this debate and i now turn it to my opponent. Just a quick reminder also- Rebuttals are not rounds for writing new argumentation.
