DeAngelo Williams Trashed Peyton Manning’s Super Bowl Season On Twitter

Peyton Manning is announcing his retirement from the NFL on Monday, and players and coaches from around the league are honoring the two-time Super Bowl champion on social media. But not Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams, who had some interesting thoughts on Manning’s 2015 season.

Williams took to Twitter to give his opinions, and while he complimented Manning on his overall career and accomplishments, he also said that Manning “couldn’t play dead in a western” last season, which really is an underused expression.

He didn’t exactly back down in his follow-up tweets, either.

Peyton’s Broncos did eliminate the Steelers in the playoffs last year, so perhaps there is some bitterness still there from Williams. That doesn’t change the fact, though, that he’s actually right — Peyton was pretty awful last year and the Denver defense was the real reason that the Broncos won the Super Bowl. Still, using a poop emoji to describe Manning’s performance on the day he is retiring is a little harsh.

On second thought, that’s actually pretty accurate.
