LOL! Did he actually say that? Denver had the fewest man games lost to injury this year by far. Denver has been the luckiest team in terms of injuries in 2015.

I finally found ONE reasonable Broncos fan (from their board):

" I think we can beat the Panthers. I think we can beat the Panthers. I think it's more likely that we will not beat the Panthers.

Sure, i'd slap down $10 on the Broncos to win, but if someone were to force me to bet a couple hundred, it'd go on Carolina. Carolina is the more complete team right now, and there's no debating that. It's just fact and common sense goes to the complete team, not the one dimensional. 

As previously stated, though, I believe we CAN beat them. "

You're such a bitter Pats fan.  If this was said about Brady & Co. you'd be clamoring about only being able to play the teams on your schedule.

I don't need to make excuses or be bitter about anything. Here's why:

Now, back to the discussion at hand, your team has indeed had the fewest man games lost to injury. That's a fact. So what the other Broncos fan claimed was completely fabricated.

Oh look.  It's the I'm losing an argument so I'll talk about my teams past accomplishments move.  I'd be more impressed if you could tell me who Steve Grogan is without using Google.

I didn't lose anything. A Broncos fan claimed that the Panthers were the only team in the league who had no (or very minor) injuries. I corrected his false claim by pointing out that the Broncos were actually the luckiest team in the league when it comes to injuries, as they have had the fewest man games lost to injury in the NFL this season.

If he is even a Broncos fan... might just be a fan of another team the Panthers beat.  With that said, so what if they played against teams with injury? Thats pretty much all of the NFL.

I cant wait for the actual game to get here because the hypotheticals and stats discussed here mean nothing at the end of the day. Kind of like the picture of trophies you posted in regards to THIS year. :)

Trophies may not mean anything this year in terms of who wins or loses, I agree. But they mean something to the fans of the team, and winning one recently makes a playoff loss a whole lot easier to deal with.

For example, with the Broncos not having one in 17 years, I imagine it would be incredibly difficult to deal with another loss (especially after the 43-8 debacle.)

True, but 14 teams (including the Panthers of course) have never won a Super Bowl, and 4 (Cleveland, Jacksonville, Detroit, and Houston) have never made it to the big game. So I can't work up much sympathy for Denver fans even if they get clobbered again on Sunday (and I certainly hope we kick their butts worse than Seattle did).

Listening to mile high radio, in general they don't have much respect respect for any aspect of our team but Cam. Most seem to think J Stew isn't much of a worry, nor our receivers. And they think their offense can handle our D and put up lots of points.

As we have said before.....thin air and smoking pot is HELL on intelligent thought.  They are proving it.

    • His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.     
    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
