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.

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
