SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- You don't have to believe in the Broncos, but the
journey they've taken to Super Bowl 50 has emerged as one of the more
interesting storylines in years for an AFC title team.
Peyton Manning's quest for one more Lombardi is the kind of narrative that
makes these games memorable, but Denver has drummed up drama all season under
center with Manning and Brock Osweiler flip-flopping in and out of the lineup.
While it makes for good debate, rotating through quarterbacks asks plenty of
your receiving core, especially shifting from a thrower like Manning to a
flamethrower like Brock.
"It was kind of tough," Broncos wideout Andre Caldwell told Around the NFL on
Wednesday. "You know, Brock throws a harder ball than Peyton. So it's a
little bit of a transition, but our job is to catch the ball no matter who's
throwing it."
We surveyed Denver's entire receiving corps and opinions were split, with
Emmanuel Sanders downplaying the difference in delivery between the two,
saying: "Obviously, the football's still the same size. I know a lot of
people made a lot out of that, but my job is to catch the football, run
routes and get open. So, I'm going to do my job, regardless. I don't care if
(third-stringer) Trevor Siemian is our quarterback, I'm just doing my job."
Said Demaryius Thomas: "There's some little adjustment. I can't say it's a
challenge because Brock did a great job when he came in. He was a leader. But
when you're used to going with Peyton so much, the timing is a little
different with Brock because I didn't practice with Brock much, I didn't play
with Brock much. And once he got in, the timing was probably a little off,
but he came in and did a great job. ... He's got more velocity, hands down."
Like anyone watching the games, Broncos receivers coach Tyke Tolbert agreed
with the difference in zip, but noted that "Peyton's timing is impeccable."
"Manning throws the easiest ball to catch of any quarterback I've ever been
around since I've been in the NFL. And this is my 13th year coaching. So his
timing, he's really good at that. When you get to Brock, you know, he's
taller, has a livelier arm with more velocity on it, so they have to make the
adjustment as far as the speed of the ball coming at them."
Caldwell emphasized the same, saying of Manning's throws, "We call it tissue.
It might be coming hard, but when it touches your hand, it's soft, it's easy
to catch, it's like Charmin tissue."
Jordan Norwood has to be the most thankful of the bunch after spending the
early part of his career with the Browns. Anyone moaning about rotating
between the promising Osweiler and Hall of Fame shoe-in Peyton Manning can
check their issues at the door after what Norwood endured in Cleveland.
"Man, I played with Brady Quinn, Derek Anderson, Colt McCoy, Brandon Weeden,
Seneca Wallace, Jake Delhomme," Norwood laughed, before acknowledging that
it's been a gift to catch passes from Manning, adding: "He's one of the
greatest of all time for a reason."
Coach Gary Kubiak's switch back to Manning did unleash one clear positive:
These wideouts have practiced with him for years, something that can't be
duplicated in mere weeks with an understudy.
Of course, the team also has another iconic passer on the payroll in the form
of general manager John Elway, but the former Broncos great hasn't tried out
his legendary heat-seeking arm on this cast of pass-catchers.
"No, he don't get out there," said Caldwell. "He's on the side, watching in a
suit."

首先 我們認為這不是頂新一個個案 這是台灣食安轉型的一個契機 3號 宋楚瑜 徐欣瑩
只有拉到這個高度 才不會淪為政治對立的祭品 並以為消滅了頂新 就解決台灣的食安問題
當人們集體去抵制廠商 這代表我們的政府 在這件事上 缺席了
政府的責任 是該給廠商能夠清楚改善的方向及法令 給人民能夠安心的嚴管及補償
台灣人不是貪心的人 也不是狠心的人 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXiNTz5caYQ
而是對未來失去信心的一次吶喊 所以這一次的抵制 有一部份是對政府的絕望
