There was definitely people saying he wouldnt come here due to Eli being in the division. But Peyton or his agents never ruled us out. Its possible we were considered an option for the purpose of driving up the price. I still believe with the cap penalty, that Peyton would have chose Denver. He wanted to win now and $18 mil per year is no small amount. Throw in Eli in the division and I believe there was very little, if any, chance.
