Broncos Talib still making dirty plays, even in preseason.

Is that why it drew a personal foul and a 15 yard penalty?

 

It was most certainly not legal, and will get a flag every time a QB is running out of bounds. 

 

Well, QB's not named Cam Newton anyways. 

Yep, Cam gets hit like that it's fine...  anyone else, flag.

At the VERY least Talib needs to understand it's preseason... no reason for that at all.

Good point. Probably too embarassed to draw attention to a penalty like that in the Superbowl only to gloat about it after the game. Best to sweep it under the rug. 

I get your point too, but I wasn't even referring to that, though it may actually be a part of the determination---get the mofo for old and new.

Yeah,I figured that out and deleted my post. Still pissed about that blatant superbowl facemask

This may be unpopular, but my eyes show one foot still in bounds.  It's the NFL.  His actions in the SB were 100x worse.  And by a 100x worse, I mean this looks like a 100% legal hit.

 

Just now, Jeremy Igo said:

The NFL sees the QB heading for the sidelines the same as a slide. 

Agree with both - on any other non-QB it's legal (or at least within the rules, if not a bit cheap). Against a QB, it's flag city.

To clarify:  I personally believe it should be a flag.  It's just so hard to judge intent.  Was the QB really running out of bounds?  An agile QB could rope-a-dope and get past a defender who lets up at the last second.  Opposite to, the defense is setting a tone.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
