What's the climate going to be if they start 1-4 or if Osweiler has success.... The fans are used to the Manning gravy train...as is Elway. This is the first, real, adversity he will have faced since becoming GM. Last season would've been ..had Osweiler/the defense not bailed him out. Last edited by BlackOp; 05-06-2016 at 12:29 PM.. |

Honestly though, you put way too much focus on the loss of Brock and are really fixated on this narrative that Elway has screwed the team with his ego. Panthers Colts @ CIN @ Bucs Hell, after those 4 games 'with Peyton in 2015' or Brock this year, the 1-3 or 2-2 was a very real outlook. That's not an easy start, so for me ... 2-2 would be the desired goal. Falcons @ Chargers Texans Chargers Little better, with 3 at home (oh no ... 5 of first 8 at home - bastards!) After 8, they are likely sitting at 4-4. Less than that wouldn't shock me, nor would it concern me. Now, if they're losing ugly, then that's another topic entirely. Going back to 2012, I remember all the talk about the team being a joke that was delusional for thinking Peyton was going to do anything with that team. The supporting cast was a joke and it was 'lucky' wins with Tebow. Now, I hear 2015 was 'lucky bounces'... hell, I guess Denver is just annually lucky, so there isn't much to worry about. No?

I have already discussed Malik with you in the past regarding why I am OK with letting him walk. I do regret losing Trevathan and I think that was a mistake. It's my opinion that the Broncos like what they had behind him. They might be concerned with his injury history but they just drafted two guys with injury histories so that's questionable. I think they would have regressed on Defense even if they kept every single guy and magically made them not be a year older. Last year was one of those historic Defensive runs. You can't expect to repeat that. But they will still be very, very good. They are overhauling the Offense. Not just players but scheme. In theory it is only going to demand from Sanchez the kind of play that was demanded of him when he first came into the league. We'll see. It's going to be a fun ride. |

I'm sure he thought he was taking it to the Chiefs on that signing....yikes. Had he not signed Sanchez/Stephenson...he probably could have landed Kap. Not that he is any prize but might have been a serviceable placeholder in the boot-leg system. At any rate...you know the o-line is desperate when throw that kind of money at a below mediocre RT. I'm still trying to figure that one out....Chief fans are glad he is gone and replaced with the best RT in the league. |

Great...such a brilliant response. I'm left to assume that's all the insight you have.
Please enlighten us with your intellectual prowess...you seem like a real "thinking" man. Last edited by BlackOp; 05-06-2016 at 02:20 PM.. |

Yep.
Outside of a couple of his fellow conspiracy nuts absolutely nobody here takes him seriously.

It's a transition period, but call it what you like.

And slighting his future QB? Brock Osweiler is an overrated joke. He's got all the athleticism of Joe Flacco and Heath Schaub's love child. You think that we're worried that he's going to find success in ****ing Houston!? ![]() Your post is mind blowing to me. Most Broncos fans are on cloud nine right now talking about what a genius John Elway has proven to be. He just delivered his third Superbowl Ring to the team, turned around and dumped an over rated QB, and then drafted a replacement who looks infinitely more athletic. Do you even have any inkling of what that move means to the franchise where the salary cap is concerned? It means we'll be able to resign Von Miller and still have a ton of room in 2017. Your posts just come off as silly. We've won 5 AFC West titles in a row, and there's no reason to believe we won't be competitive for 5 more.
