Where are all these superstars we heard about this offseason?

Oh, and like I said paying Surtain was a waste. He impacted those 2 ganes in what way??

Franklin and Mim were supposed to be tearing it up. Where are they?

If only Dungver played scrimmages every week instead of actual games….

They had a banner raising last week. "Dominated the Packers offseason champions 2024"

As well as Dulcich, who is so bad that fans are screaming for him to be cut.

Marvin Mims has been persona non grata - has played something like 20 snaps in the two games combined. The RBs have done nothing - almost literally. Except that Tyler Badie gets in for one play in the 2nd quarter against the Steelers, has the best run that the team has had in two games (16 yards, and looked like he actually wanted to be there), and then doesn't get another snap.

You can obviously argue that they're not a good team. But they're not as bad as they've looked through the first two weeks. Four months from now, they're not going to have averaged 265 total yards a game on offense. Their best RB is not going to finish the season with 300 yards rushing (the current pace). Whether he's a starting-caliber NFL QB or not, Bo Nix isn't going to finish the season with 3000 yards, 0 TDs, and 34 INTs (his current pace).

It's hard, at this point, to even know what to be angry about - other than "all of it." (Actually, the special teams has looked great - so there's that.) And I'd still rather watch this - whatever this is - than Russell Wilson incapable of throwing anything between the hashmarks, and bailing on every pocket that isn't perfectly formed. But it's not good.

Direct your anger at those responsible. The Denver GM sucks balls. It's a total mystery as to why he hasn't been fired already.

The head coach has been bad, but worse than being bad, he has worked to raise expectations to a totally unrealistic level. He got the Bronco faithful pumped with the fantasy of winning lots of games while the truth was always much darker. This season and the abysmal performances would have been much easier to accept if only you had had realistic expectations.

Yeah, some of us called it a money grab when they hired him. I can't blame the donk faithful for getting their hopes up. They thought they were shopping at Whole Foods, but when they checked their bags, they were filled with great value boxes. Now even the most diehard donktard has lost all interest/hope in the team by week 2 of the new season, and appear to have lost all interest in "talking football" in favor of Golden Girls reruns.

Oh, I CAN blame them... When they thought they had something in Mo Pix, they crawled out from under their rocks and ran over here demanding our validation. The joke is on them for being so stupid! We didn't even get to say,"TOLD YOU SO!," before they BAILED and realized we were right after only WEEK 2.

That's what Kent Babb did.

"Arrowhead Anxiety" was published a year before Pioli was shit-canned, but the damage was unsurvivable.

That article even turned the True Fans against him. The 2012 season that followed was really just Zombie Pioli -- he was dead, his body just hadn't figured it out yet.

Not Pioli or Broncos related, but we just had to treat our ash tree a couple of months ago to prevent them from impacting our tree.

Didn’t MHM have them around 10 wins this season? He’s usually the least delusional. Ding fans were sold a false sale of goods

The Broncos under Penner are the equivalent of those schmucks that constantly fall for get rich quick schemes and grifts other franchise pull on them.

I think 9 or 10, but he had them missing the playoffs.

I had them at 6-11 and finishing last in the West... Chango kept telling me that they won 8 games last season, and got better this year, so there was no way they were going to lose more games this year than last year.

Sassy Squatch · Today, 09:31 AM

I guess they can take solace in the fact that had they landed Aaron Rodgers things probably go about the same. With a much better slate of offensive playmakers and a supposedly elite defense over in New York him and Hackett still look like bums.

Kind of like Walmart. Once successful but driven into the ground and turned to trash by the same leadership.

And let's be real. The ONLY reason they had 8 wins was that ridiculous 4 game winning streak in the middle of the year (started with us) where they had like 15 turnovers in 4 games. Completely unexpected and unsustainable. They beat 3 playoff teams (us, Bills and Browns) because of that.

So, really, they were more realistically a 5 or 6 win team last year. Those 8 wins were a mirage because of that fluke run of luck with turnovers.
