3 Best Broncos Passing Seasons Since 2000
By michael obermuller

The Denver Broncos have struggled to find a franchise quarterback since John Elway. The retired legend is now the president and general manager in Denver, and he hopes Drew Lock will be his signal-caller of the future.
Lock only took over last season however, so which quarterbacks have had the Broncos top passing seasons since 2000?
3. Peyton Manning, 2014
Peyton Manning finished career in Denver and offered a brief respite to the awful quarterback play Denver had grown accustomed to seeing over the past couple decades. The 2014 season was the third of four he played with the Broncos, and his numbers were slightly down due to a 2.5 percent interception rate. Despite this, Manning still threw for the franchise's second highest season yardage total ever at 4,727 yards, while adding 39 passing touchdowns. The Broncos were eliminated at home in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs, by his former team. Ironically, Manning won a Super Bowl with Denver the next season, though he had by far his worst year.
2. Peyton Manning, 2012
Manning's first year back from a neck injury (and initial season with the Broncos) was an impressive one. Although his total yardage and touchdowns were slightly lower than in 2014, his efficiency was greater. Peyton only threw 11 interceptions (compared to his 37 TD's) and had a passer rating of 105.8. Manning was named a first-team All-Pro in the regular season, also winning NFL Comeback Player of the Year honors.
1. Peyton Manning, 2013
The 2013 season was statistically the best of Manning's career, and also one of the best of all time. He threw for a ridiculous 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns with only 10 interceptions. That set the NFL's all-time single-season records for both passing yards and touchdowns — records that still stand today. This 2013 Denver offense was one for the history books, and Manning was well deserving of his first-team All-Pro honors and his record-setting fifth NFL MVP award.
