? is Madden done with roster updates?

Hines Ward officially announces his retirement, says he'll "be a Steeler for life."
Looks like they unretired #18? I never saw a story on that, but just saw this pic on Twitter:
I've only seen that Tripuka said he wouldn't care if they did
Spent his whole career in a dome, receivers are average at best, thin at RB position.
Someone did a little research and listed game by game how well Manning played in temps under 40 degrees. ESPN also has one but seems off since this guy actually posted each game, the temperature and the results.
Reg season:
7-7 record, 331-534, 3725, 21 TDs, 19 INTs, 81.1 rating
(only beat 4 teams w/ winning records at the time of the games)
Postseason:
0-3 record, 64-120, 612 yds, 1 TD, 7 INTs, 46.2 rating
Combined:
7-10 record, 395-654, 4337 yds, 22 TDs, 26 INTs, 74.7 rating
No dates available yet but lots of potential cold games ahead and possibly only a a couple warm games on the road.
Blue is a potential cold game. Only one game in a dome this year for Peyton.

All with a team BUILT for a Dome.
And it has been how long since he has had better than average receiver's and not thin at RB?
Austin Collie? Jacob Tamme? Blair White? Joseph Addai? We will see this year how good Garcon really is. Wayne and Clark were the main threats and Clark cannot stay on the field. He will have two huge targets in Decker and Thomas and I find it hard to believe they will not do something either via FA or the Draft to get more weapons. Not to mention if they trade Tebow what they might get for him. Two years ago he was throwing to people who could not start on most D1 college teams because of injuries and you are telling me it is better than what they have in Denver? That does not even count what he was dealing with on the O-line.
in and out of dome is a pointless discussion and proves nothing..people may have tendencies,but it cant be proven and doesnt matter from/for most individuals. Manning will/can be just as successful if he stays healthy..hopefully he makes this real interesting..and no one has said anything yet that Tebow is gone ..and all the arguements for it are just arm chair fodder
The Tex-anns traded DeMeco Ryans to Philly. So they have lost 2/4 of their LBs and 2/5 of their OL. 5 starters in all, I believe.
I don't think any of it will be a deathblow to Houston in a crappy division, but wow. Way to hold it together.

No. They completely changed their offense just for him. You can't do that at halftime when Peyton's laid out with an injury. You're sure as hell not going to devote time every week in practice to practice two different playbooks.
If Peyton was laid out for weeks or months and Tebow was the full-time starter, then the Broncos could change it up. But as the backup, who is usually expected to run a reasonably similar (if smaller) offensive package? No way.
No more pointless than what color his jersey will be and whether or not there is a side panel.
Playing inside/outside a dome has a tangible impact on gameplay. How can you just dismiss that? I do agree it proves nothing. Every discussion in March proves nothing!
Elway all but did say it.
