Schefter showing Hillman some love.

That's just dumb.

It's hilarious. CJ Anderson actually appears to be a very good back and this idiot is clamoring for Hillman to get some carries.

ThaVirus · 08-28-2015, 12:28 PM

Anyway, Mathis won't play until week 1 and Sanders hasn't practiced in three weeks due to a hamstring injury. Those factors, coupled with a trash offensive line, a new offensive system, a coaching change, a rusty-looking Peyton, and two strong defenses to kick off the season could spell doooooooom for the Broncos.

We had a good thing going with Mike Anderson and Tatum Bell back in the day, in Kubiak's last year in Denver Anderson and Bell almost ran for 1,000 yards each. CJ and Hillman could be a similar situation.

Mike Anderson and Tatum Bell were buns. Ronnie Hillman is also buns.

CJ Anderson appears to be pretty good.

I'll bet the Mile High Mule Tool and ANY Elway Disciple on this BB that the Broncos will have their worst record after 8 games this season than any season since Manning has arrived. Why? Because this year they FINALLY have to play a road -heavy schedule the first half of the season, and as such, they will not be able to get off to one of their NFL schedule tailor - made great starts. I've had this argument with the MHM Tool, in particular, over the years and all he does is spew his passive-aggressive-two-faced-back-handed-compliment- poser- BS and we NEVER get to see who is right because the Donx ALWAYS get a HOME HEAVY 1st half season schedule. 2012 was the closest thing they had a 4/4 split and were 5-3 I believe at mid season. FINALLY we get to see what happens when they hit the road, more times then they're home, to start the season. Can't wait!

Quesadilla Joe · 08-28-2015, 03:25 PM

We started the 2012 season 2-3 and didn't lose another game for the rest of the season.

Haven't gotten a chance to look at their schedule, but that's great to hear. Especially considering we're in the same boat.

Yep. Nothing new for us.

What? No you're not. You are 4 home vs 4 away in your first 8, just like you were in 2014. In 2013 you were 5 home vs 3 away. You were 4/4 in 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005... and that's as far as I'm looking.

I don't know when KC last had this "road heavy" early schedule you're complaining about, but it wasn't in the last decade.

Maybe try complaining about something that you didn't just make up.

MagicHef · 08-28-2015, 04:18 PM

I found it! 1997!

1997 was the last time KC had a road-heavy early schedule that TEX claims is "nothing new" for the Chiefs. Since then, they have had 3 seasons (1998, 2000, 2013) of home-heavy early schedules which are apparently the secret to Denver's success. Every other year has been 4 home games and 4 away games in the first half of the season.
