Has Talib's personality taken over the Denver D?

Valid, but Talib was signed a year before Kubiak.

The penchant for dirty play actually goes higher than the head coach.

Elway was part of some teams that played dirty too.

This is not a new thing for the Broncos at all.  Bill Romanowski made some of his dirtiest plays in a Broncos uniform.

So after reading some of the replies in here, not only is it a Bronco thing, but with this current team, Elway heads it. So, while Talib is dirty, it's the men above him who pretty much want Talib to be Talib. Both the Broncos and Saints; dirty franchises.

We all know Talib is a cheap shot artist, but I wonder if he has taken over the Defense in a bad way. We all know Talib has a bad taste in his mouth for the Carolina Panthers,

Since the Broncos were reported shopping him, I wonder if Elway sees his defense going down the wrong path with Talib on the team and not doing things the right way like Von Miller.

All the ones making the helmet to helmet plays were Talib's "boys"

Wow, the only hit that was even super dirty was the last one.  You guys are unreal.

Did the whole team play dirty before Kubiak?  Was it when Elway came on board that they started?  I don't recall our teams playing very dirty under Fox, so I'm sure he wasn't part of it.

Kubiak was Elway's backup and later his OC. They go way back.

As OC, Kubiak ran a scheme that relied pretty heavily on cut blocks (taught by then OL Coach Alex Gibbs) that had loads of teams complaining about dirty hits and guys going for their knees.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
