Crockett to Manning: "Hurry the Hell Up."

Broomfield, CO - Local Bronco fan and Captain Awesome himself Clint Crockett has a message for Peyton Manning: "Hurry the hell up."

"Listen, I want Peyton Manning in a Bronco's uniform," says Crockett, "but I'm sick of the team being held hostage". As of 6:00 EST on 3/15/2012, the 3rd day of Free Agency, the Denver Broncos have only signed one free agent and have yet to sign DT Brodrick Bunkley, the team's priority signing.

Crockett would love to see Manning sign with the Broncos. "I understand all the excitement around Manning. He makes a team better on and off the field. He makes the receivers better, he makes the offensive line work heard, and he gives the defense more of a break... Not to mention he is basically an offensive coordinator on the field." Crockett even went on to say that he think Tim Tebow should stay and learn from Manning. "(Manning is a ) future hall of famer. Even if Tebow and Manning play two different styles, how could you not learn from one of the greatest quarterback's of all time?"

When Crockett was asked about the Bronco's competition to sign manning, he said, "Well, Miami is an organization that's a mess and really in repair mode with the offense, so they're out. Arizona doesn't have the cap room and play in the NFC, against his brother (Eli), so I think they're out. Guess that leaves Tennessee, though I do not understand the appeal. Chris Johnson is slowing down and the o-line isn't helping, not to mention there's no one to throw the ball to."

Crockett also says this about Bud Adams' offer of a life time contract, "Mike Shanahan once had a life time contract, look how that worked out. Not only did he get lazy and self centered, but he loss the appeal of the fans and the faith of the team." Crockett also mentioned that when Bud Adams passes on, all bets could be off. "The selling point of life after football shouldn't matter for Peyton. He'll be able to do that almost anywhere, including Indianapolis."

When asked to summarize his feelings, Crockett said, "Denver is a great place to live. Lots to do, great weather, and not really that big or hard to get around. You want solitude, you can find it hear. The Broncos organization is making great strides to success, and that will only continue with or without Peyton... hopefully with."
