Who's gonna start the thread about all the Pats reporters saying that Mac Jones has won the starting job? Cam lost his starting job to a scrub rookie partly because he wasn't vaccinated and had to miss a chunk of camp due to covid protocols...

You can’t get Can out of your mouth bro.

Broncos fans are either upset or trying to see the silver lining. 
Fans on Reddit are already asking for Fangio to be fired. 

I highly doubt that. When your choice is two backups, anyone jumping off a bridge is just being dramatic.

Teddy sucks, but it could possibly work if Denver is set up to win with a dink and dunk offense.

The main reason we fired teddy is because our offense required deep shots that teddy wasn't willing to attempt.

Which is why I don't understand why we acquired him if we were going to run a vertical offense. It's like running a race on a donut and getting pissed when it blows out. Yes, the donut isn't a good tire, but you didn't exactly use it for It's intended purpose.

 

I fully believe the reason Teddy is in Denver is to teach Drew. And if that doesn't work out you draft a QB that Teddy can tutor for a year. I thought that's what we were doing here, but apparently we were trying to win a Super Bowl with spare parts year 1.

Okay go on Reddit if you doubt me. I am not speaking out my ass. I don’t do that. 

I should clarify: I have no doubt people are being dramatic. A lot of people are frankly pretty stupid. Getting upset over 1 of your two bad options winning is probably an indication if brain damage.

Good for him.  Couldn't be me.  Again, I was a bit of a fan of Teddy from afar since college bc he was an easy guy to pull for, but I never would've wanted him as our QB due to his obvious and glaring shortcomings.  I felt that way even before his injury.

That being said, I'm not gonna lie, that could end up being a great gig for him because I always envisioned thats really the only kind of team he would be ideal for - a team with a great, aggressive defense who wins games for them, so the only thing the QB has to do is play it safe and  not turn the ball over.  It's why I never understood why he didn't take the job with Chicago last year until we found out it was bc they didn't hand him the starting role.

Now, sorry to say, although I wish Teddy well, I wish the Broncos nothing but the worst and hope their franchise burns in the eternal flames of professional football mediocrity for the rest of their existence.

crazy that this statement will get you poop emoji'd..

I think it depends on how one defines a starting QB. If defined as one of the 32 QBs in the league who trots out for their team's opening snaps on gameday, then yeah, and he might even be one of the top 32 overall. If defined as a QB who can do enough that one reasonably believes they can overcome better opposition, I don't think he or a fair number of other of the 32 'starting' QBs really meet that definition. 

Perhaps though that second definition treads more into quality QB territory than starting.

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
