Broncos

I typically only write in here when I need to vent a few things about the Denver Broncos.  I know my views are usually way off....(McDaniel's, Cutler...so on,) but come on folks!  The Tebow chants on Monday's loss to Oakland have got to stop.  Never in the history of the league has a coach admitted to starting a QB because the fans chanted his name when the starter played poorly.  Orton is the best QB on the team, period.  If Tebow was better, then why can't he earn the job in practice, training camp, pre-season?  I don't want to hear that he would excel in a real game-time situation.  Does Tom Brady perform poorly in practice?...no!  Does Aaron Rogers?.....No!  You earn the job in practice.  Orton earned the job, had a poor game (along with the D run stop, O-line, RB's, kicking and special teams blocking)  Can Tim Tebow keep McFadden from rushing for 150 yds?  Can Tim Tebow assure that punts do not get blocked?  Can Tim Tebow simply lift his left hand and block for himself?  Yes, Tim can run out of the pocket and create.........Or at least he did in college, but he hasn't done any of those things consistently in practice against NFL players.  If I test-drive a car on I-25 for a mile and the engine putters, then I am not driving that thing in Downtown Denver in rush hour.

 This is my first blog entry so it will be short.

The first thing that I want to touch on is the up coming draft and how the home town Broncos will approach it. I’m going to be writing primarily about the Broncos because that’s what I’m exposed to. I live in Denver, Colorado, but I’m a Green Bay Packer fan. Have been since the age of seven. Being a Denver native I have been following the team for most of my life. I’ve seen all the highs and lows since 1975. Including the gut wrenching Super Bowl victory over my Packers. This being said, lets begin the Bronco talk.

So after 5 weeks and a few good opponents, the Broncos are looking solid. This past Sunday when they showed the Buccaneers that there defense is getting better in all areas, especially getting after the passer. If you didn't see the game I'm sure you saw Champ Baileys hit on Brian Griese on Sports Center that took him out of the game. Before that though, Denver was putting constant pressure on the quarterback while still maintaining down field integrity. People have said a lot about Denver's D-Line and how it is struggling, what I tell them is that we have a lot of young talent on that line in LE Tim Crowder, DT Marcus Thomas, RE Elvis Dumervil, & RE Jarvis Moss. As these talented Defensive Linemen continue to progress, the

                I can hear already the cumulative scream from millions in Bronco Land, but even the mighty can be bested. It is about time another Denver quarterback remove the proverbial sword that has been wedged firmly into the Rocky Mountains.  Denver is certainly in need of a new hero and watching Jay Cutler perform every Sunday you can’t help but be excited by the possibilities.

They don't make 'em like Rod anymore, do they?  A WR who keeps his mouth shut, blocks downfield, catches passes over the middle and just flat out plays football.  Rod would have been at home playing in any NFL era.  I could see the guy catching passes from anyone from Aaron Rodgers to Y.A. Tittle. But I couldn't be happier that this undrafted player from a D-II school ended up a Bronco for life.

Wow so the Broncos didn't go 6-10 they went 7-9. Still a bad record for the type of team the Broncos claim to be. All I hear in the post game interview is "We've go so much talent on this team...we're too good to be playing like this...its just about making plays." Geez if I could get paid on how many times that was said in a post game interview I wouldn't have to work my $7.50 an hour job...heck I might even be getting paid a hundredth of what those guys rake in each year. Anyway, I think I'll be looking forward to the '08 season though its quite a long way away from right now. Some thoughts on the Minnesota game: Did any one else have a horrid feeling in their stomach when in the 4th quarter, the

OK so the Broncos are going to go 6-10. After a nightmare performance that the whole defense save Champ Bailey and Elvis Dumerville should be fired for down in Houston, we can all look forward to a thrashing in San Diego. I'm not really trying to be pessimistic here but honestly...here comes Ladainian "Id rather have Drew Brees as my quarterback" Tomlinson and the rest of Marty's leftovers. They're looking to prove that Norv Turner can indeed win in the regular season, and Philip Rivers seems to have the
