It looks like the Denver Post might have trolled or jinxed Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning ahead of their AFC Divisional Round match up against the San Diego Chargers. They definitely put some pressure on Manning. A full page picture shows Manning standing under a dark cloud with the headline: “A legacy under a cloud.”

People seemed to be shocked by the headline considering the Broncos had a game later that day, just his second as the Broncos quarterback.
@StaceyDales @mikefreemanNFL Shouldn't that be tomorrow if they lose?

Hopefully for the Broncos, it serves as extra motivation for Manning.
