Well, at least he admits what many saw out there last year. I've said many times that much of the team appeared to be going through the motions, especially offensively. There was an obvious lack of energy, and who is to say that, regarding Cam anyway, some of it didn't come down to being concussed and otherwise injured? 

I would have liked to have seen Cam pulled like Kuechly was, but that's water under the bridge now, as long as it's not repeated. I just hope that he realizes how valuable he is to the success of the franchise, makes better decisions inasmuch as his health is concerned, trusts his teammates, and takes what defenses give him in the passing game.

He sounds ready to go.

I do agree there was a lack of energy. But I find it to be understandable. It takes a ton of effort and energy to make the SB obviously. And I think that's why you see a lot of Superbowl hangovers. 

We should have had a good year though last season. The refs were screwing Cam over and we had some injuries , Gettleman messed up the Norman deal, Gano sucked etc... I can't blame Cam for going through the motions when he probably felt like the league wasn't allowing him to compete like every other QB. That might sound like loser mentality to some but to me that's just reality. The officials and their good ol boy routine is stale and mean spirited

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      Yeah not taking that Burns trade was infinitely stupid. We seem to be finally righting the ship but, imo, our biggest issue since Tepper bought the team has been coaches and management having a poor understanding of where our own roster is at. Starting with that idiot Rhule drinking his own kool-aid and thinking he was going to come and take the NFL by storm with Teddy freaking Bridgewater. Could have just kept Cam on the last year of his contract and gone from there but noooo that fat slob had to feel like he was the big man on campus. First round wizard Marty Hurney who, for whatever his faults, has a freaking HOF track record with first round picks, wants to trade up for Hebert but fat fug Rhule says no. Then we kept Rhule for 3 years which is absolutely unbelievable to me and every single year he treated our roster like it was just one player away trading our draft picks for Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield who have proven since leaving that Matt Rhule was an even bigger idiot of a coach than we thought. We finally seem to understand we are a ways off and trade CMC, but then we don’t take the actual good trade for Brian Burns who was never better than a run of the mill situational pass rusher. Then we botch the self scout of our OL (and team) after Wilks, even though they were bad before Wilks simplified the scheme, thinking they can execute whatever the hell Reich and Brown were trying to do. So we win a couple meaningless games playing dummy ball and Fitterer thinks we’re a player away again. And nobody even considers that having the slowest receiving corps imaginable with Damiere freaking Byrd, who can’t even make it to the season before being injured and cut, as your only hope for speed, coupled with the worst pass blocking OL I’ve ever seen, might lead to titanic levels of disaster. The way Canales and Morgan have been adamant about constantly bringing competition at every position has been refreshing and made a huge difference. I was kind of worried that we had fallen into our old ways leading up to the draft with all the talk of defense only and worried that they might feel the offense was set. Very glad to see they were not complacent on that. My big thing now is I’m still wondering why Evero is still here. I can’t think of a single player who has gotten better under him, and the Broncos defense got better once he left. We’ll see.
