lol........  all the buzz those fruits are making about what they did to Brady and come to find out,  the only reason the Broncos pass rush looked so dominant against that makeshift Patriots Oline,  wasn't because it was a makeshift Oline,  but because the Pats' Center was giving away the pats snap count on nearly every play.  

 

o0o...  Ssccaarryy!

That pass rush won't help when we're running the ball down their throat, can anyone name their ILB's? I know I can't and I'm an NFL junkie. They'll have to pull the safeties down into the box for run support and you know what happens next...

Danny Trevathan and Brandon Marshall are really good linebackers and seem to have a nose to get to the football. We have to be aware of those two in the middle of that defense. Denver does run a lot of man to man defense too so getting Olsen out there on them one on one and making plays is critical.I believe with this particular game  whoever wins in the trenches and whoever wins the turnover battle is the team that's going to win the game.

Funny how people still keep saying "yeah but the Panthers play in a weak division" and "yeah but the Panthers had a soft schedule" as if that negates the fact that we beat both playoff opponents -- and in a dominating fashion no less.  When you crush the #2 seed, you crush the #2 seed.  There's no weighted formula at work there.  If you beat them you beat them, and it doesn't matter in the least that the other three teams in your division happen to suck.

It reminds me of a joke my chemistry professor always told about scientists -- "well sure it works in practice, but does it work in theory?" -- to illustrate the fallacious thinking that settles in whenever you have an echo chamber repeating a mindless narrative.

It's all about the narrative.

Played 3 games against Top 10 rushing offenses and gave up almost 150 yards in each....they apparently are not THAT good in the middle of their defense.

Two things I have observed over the years of watching pro football

1. It is a young man's game for the most part

2 sentimentality doesn't win games 

Yep.  Bottom line is that the Broncos are a very mediocre team (good defense and anemic offense).

They were a fumble by a 4th string Pitt RB from not making it out of the division round....against a Pitt team with a banged up Ben, no RB, and no Antonio Brown.

Then, they were a missed XP from not making it out of the division round....against a NE team with absolutely no running game, a banged up OL, and a inexperience C in NE that was tipping off the snap.

And they BARELY won those games.

They are about to run into both an offensive and defensive juggernaut in Carolina.....that has been steam rolling better teams than Denver in the playoffs.  Again, it is NOT going to be close.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
