Via NFL.com – Peyton Manning’s green ball aims to reduce fumbles:
When pressed by the media about it, Manning went grade school.
“Like I said, that’s official Denver Broncos offensive business, right? It’s kind of an A and B conversation and you can C your way out of it,” Manning said.
Well, I’m rubber and you’re glue … oh, forget it.
Unfortunately for the team captain, coach John Foxratted him out, telling reporters the green footballs represented the team’s fumbling issues last season.
“We’re making an emphasis from Day 1 on ball security,” Fox said, per the Denver Post. “We started with two of our better players in Demaryius and Peyton. What better guys to start with?”
