Ronnie Hillman defends Peyton Manning to ‘fake fans’

Peyton Manning

The Denver Broncos are undefeated this season, but despite their 6-0 record, some fans are unsatisfied with the team. Most feel that the defense is carrying the team while Peyton Manning and his league-worst 10 interceptions are hurting the team.

Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman is sick of hearing fans bash Manning and stuck up for his quarterback via Twitter Sunday:

Hillman had his most productive game for the Broncos this season as he rushed for 111 yards on 20 carries. Perhaps it’s his security with his role on the team plus the squad’s success that made him feel comfortable in speaking out. Beyond that, he’s right to defend Manning. Though Peyton’s play has clearly diminished, he has done enough to keep the team undefeated. Backup Brock Osweiler is an unknown commodity at this point. It would be misguided to believe the team will automatically be better off with a guy who has 30 career passes and one viral video to his name instead of a future Hall of Famer.
