That's a stretch....IMO the soon-to-be 37 year old Antonio Ramiro Romo makes no team an instant contender next year (ie: considering his current health, age, diminishing skills, etc).
Whatsmore....
.....Denver needs more than just a capable qb to be relevant again.....they need to shore up that O-line while receiving a serious injection of talent at the rb slot, as well.
Denver, as of week 16, ranks 28th in the NFL in rushing the ball (ie: a paltry 89 ypg / 3.6 ypc). Dallas on the flip side ranks #2 in rushing: 155 ypg combined with a healthy 4.9 yards-per-carry.
The Cowboys have scored 24 rushing TD's to date....the Broncs?....only 10. That's double the NY Giants, of course....but see how far they end up going in the playoffs based on Eli to OBJ twenty-plus times a game, hmmm?
It's been often said, a QB's "best friend" is a great running attack; ie, see the success of rookie QB Dak Prescott based on handing the ball off to Zeke da Freak. BOTH obviously benefit from that fantastic O-line that controls the trenches.
Romo might succeed if he is shipped off to Mile High.....
but he ain't taking Zeke and Zak and Tyron and Travis, etc with him. John Elway has a lotta work to do in the off season if he's to get Denver back on top again. Oakland and Kansas City aren't going away anytime soon.
