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.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      Well, he either plays well or we suck again and get the #1 pick and get our new QB for next year.  Im not stressing.

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
