Out of Left Field: “This one’s for Demaryius’s Mom”

Denver Broncos win

Perhaps only Peyton Manning has had a more trying season than wide receiver Demaryius Thomas. What’s surprising is that Thomas, who battled outrageous expectations after signing a $70 million contract in the offseason, is getting so much heat from the fans and media for a 1,000-yard and 100-catch season. His mom was granted a release from jail on a Presidential pardon, and her story has been making headlines here in Denver and nationally. John Elway could surprise the world and dedicate this win to their emotional story. But he won’t.
