    Re: Official Denver Broncos Thread

    I couldn't agree with you more on McCoy. I was on him last year, and I was hoping he'd go somewhere else to be a head coach since he was so 'imaginative and capable of adapting'. Whatever. You can tell when he is asserting himself and his playcalling because it seems so out of character for Manning. Just let Manning run the show, keep your pie-hole shut, and make sure the correct personnel is on the field.

    2nd and 1 is the best situation an offense can be in, and the Broncos mucked it up each and every time. Where was the play-action? The deep ball? It's gotten to the point where I'd rather see Denver in no less than 3 yards to go for a first down. How dumb is that?

    Thomas has become the weapon we all hoped he would be.

    It's amazing to me that this is the first time in 25 years that Denver has won back-to-back division titles. I would have lost that bet.

    Keep rolling. Go Broncos!

      A solid win for the Broncos; however, I'm sure we'd all like to see touchdowns instead of field goals. That being said, the Broncos played well and didn't allow the Raiders to threaten them.

      I'd say Moreno had a very solid game with 167 all-purpose yards (rushing and receiving). Not only did Moreno break the 100 yard mark on the ground in this game, Manning went over 300 yards. So the offense played well, they simply sputtered a bit too much in the red zone. Again, I chalk that up to play-calling. When your players are having nights like that, coaches need to find ways to utilize them. I don't think McCoy did a good job of that in the red zone.

      It was nice seeing Champ get a pick. For as little as he gets thrown to, I'm sure it feels good for him to get rewarded with that.

        With the extra few days of rest, hopefully Stokley an Woodyard will be back.

        Also, Mitch Untein is quietly having a very nice season.

          Stokley played against the Raiders, just in a limited role. It's obvious that they really need Kuper back.

          Last night was a decent performance for a late season Thursday night game against an inferior opponent. So many want to see Denver blow teams out, and if they don't, there is HUGE concern. Come on. I'm sure that the Broncos weren't 100% up for the game, and the short week probably contributed to some of the misfires. No doubt who the better team was.

          Dumervil was MIA again. He is unable to reap the rewards from so much attention being given to Miller, and teams continue to handle him straight up.

          The additional days off come at just the right time before they go to Baltimore.

            The Ravens have always been a team that scares me. The Ravens lead the series 6-3 and if my memory serves me correctly, Denver has never won in Baltimore. For me, this game will show me a lot about this team this year. The Ravens will be hungry to knock off one of the hottest teams in the NFL right now and I'm sure the Baltimore fans are going to be in full force.

              You are correct in saying that Denver has never won in Baltimore. However, I like their chances this go-around. Manning has had great success in Baltimore in the past, and the Ravens D is really ailing. Denver will be able to score. I will be most interested in seeing how Moreno does against the Ravens' D. Many backs have gashed them this year.

                Man, I miss the days when our team consisted of Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, Tony Scheffler, Peyton Hillis, and Nate Webster.

                A while ago I read an article about off season possibilities and Reggie Bush was listed. That would be sick if we signed him.

                  Really? I wouldn't want him. He's no different than Hillman, for us.

                  I don't miss those days. Every time Cutler dropped back, I worried he'd throw a pick. How can anyone miss those days when we have a team with Manning, D.Thomas, and co.?

                  Hillis was the product of Bobby Turner, who is doing the same thing to Morris in Washington. I don't miss it.

                    I could maybe understand this comment during the McDaniels / Orton / Tebow times, but now....?

                    I am enjoying every minute of this season.

                      Haha. Seriously.

                      Thomas is the mature version of Marshall and Cutler over Manning? Even as a fan of Cutler I say no thanks.

                      Also no thanks to Reggie Bush.

                        Kupe inactive for Denver, and Suggs is active for Baltimore. I am looking forward to Denver's first win in Baltimore today. Just hope Denver finds their offense early. Any Predictions?

                            Outside of Holliday and Prater, today was a game that helped really make me feel good about things to come.

                            Holliday is a fumble waiting to happen. Prater looks like he's now 50/50 on anything outside of 43 yards. I'd cut Holliday before he costs us the game. That fumble could've altered the entire game if Baltimore recovered it.

                              I agree with you on Holliday but I think you are being too tough on Prater.

                              I'd take him over most kickers in the league.

                                Oh, I still want Prater. I wonder if he's wearing down as the season goes on.
