I've let nearly a year go by since I posted anything in here, but now, more then ever I have to get a few things off my chest about what's happening with the Denver Broncos. Now I have been a Bronco fan since the early 90's, I'm 24, and I have witnessed the highest of the highs with two Superbowl's and now, this season, I am witnessing the lowest point since my Bronco fandom if that's a word.

I waited a few days after the NFL draft to post my thoughts on how the Broncos did because I needed time to digest their selections and determine whether or not I truly liked the moves the team made. The truth is, like with every draft, it will be a minimum two seasons and probably three before we can really assign a grade to this or any team’s draft, so any opinion expressed now is really a shot in the dark. For example, it looks like the Broncos’ draft of 2008 is good for the time being, as Ryan Clady and Eddie Royal both had outstanding rookie seasons. We still need to wait another year or two however before we can truly evaluate that draft as a whole. That said, I have a few thoughts on the Broncos’ selections from last weekend:

It has been a while since I last posted anything on here. Honestly there hasn't been a whole lot going on with the Broncos since the firing of Mike Shanahan and hiring of Josh McDaniels, until now. I don't even know where to begin. I suppose starting with the Cutler/McDaniels saga would be best. At first, I was completely on Jay's side about this issue. Even if McDaniels never really wanted to trade Cutler, he should have informed him that he was on the trade block, or at least in talks of a trade. Cutler deserves to know that much. McDaniels should have ended it before it even began. First off, Cutler is better than Cassel, flat out. Second, I don't think a new head coach wants to come to a team and trade away its best player. That has bad news written all over it. I know Coach McDaniels made it clear that Jay is the quarterback, but for the call to even have been made to him says that Jay wasn't exactly safe like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady.

I had an interesting conversation with a man at my place of work the other day about the departure of Mike Shanahan. The conversation started off by him asking me if I was going to be against Mike Shanahan when he goes to a new team. I replied, "only if he if he goes to a division team." I figured that was a reasonable response to the question but for some reason he flew off the handle saying that Mike was a legend and an icon for Denver fans and they still need to be loyal to him, but how can you be loyal to a coach when if he is on the opposite side of the field than the Denver Broncos? It's one thing to respect the man but to root for him when the Broncos face him is just plain crazy, and if he goes somewhere in the division than I will hope he loses the majority of his games. Now if we clinch the division early, than sure, I will hope he can put a few victories together.
