    I'm surprised by the timing. He has a shot at a ring with Peyton as the quarterback.

    Dawkins battled neck injuries toward the end of the 2012 season, and missed two of the Broncos' final three games of the regular season and the team's two playoff games. Dawkins' contract with the Broncos expired after the season, and The Denver Post reported he spent close to six weeks mulling over his options.

    ROFL!!


    Seriously, doesn't anyone else find it ironic that BOTH Peyton and Dawkins have battled the neck problems, while the former is just now starting for the team, and the latter is retiring from the same team? WEIRD.

    Maybe Dawkins knows Peyton has no chance

    I mean, last week he did find out they were playing the steelers game one

    I am glad Dawkins chose retirement over possibly becoming crippled with one bad hit.

    Good look in retirement Brian Dawkins, you had a wonderful career and I loved watching you play.

    By the way Brian, I've always enjoyed the enthusiasm and energy you brought to the field. Your play was admirable and you will surely be missed!
