He retires as the second tallest Qb in NFL history. 6' 7.5 inches is half an inch shorter than Dan McGuire at 6' 8

Yup. He was an average Pac12 QB at ASU.

Elway absolutely sucks at evaluating QB's. At least he let HOU pay for most of that.

I think the Cleveland Browns got to pay for most of his salary when he was traded here

I can see it. He wasn't making back-up money, less than a million a year. If he was getting $2-3 million a year to hold a clipboard he would have probably stayed in the league. I also wouldn't be surprised if he returns. Some team will lose a QB in the next few years and he might be the best QB available on the street. If they offer enough he will return.

The Broncos loved him. He was the "fill in" QB when Peyton was hurt. Luckily, he had a DOMINANT defense.

The Broncos figured they would re-sign him no problem when Peyton Retired until Houston offered him a zillion dollars to play there

I always like people more if they express gratitude (to anyone or for anything that has benefited them).

Good luck in retirement, Brock.

PS Ingrates lead my people I disrespect list.

Brock Osweiler and Matt Flynn. Two guys who had just a few good games in their NFL careers, and managed to turn that into $41 million and $19 Million dollars respectively. Amazing.
