I hope the optimism is warranted, but unless they fix the O-line he's got about six games before he is on permanent disability

The history of rebuilt QBs halfway or more through their career isn't promising

In an interview, Peyton discussed a conversation he had with John Madden. Madden advised him early in his career to keep building strength in his legs because that would help him perform and prolong his career.

I think that was Parcells, not Madden. "Legs legs legs. Do your squats."

Six is 2/3 of 9, a more realistic number given the beatings and injuries so far
