u r
u r a denver fan so i understand where u r coming froim, but for me, Id of not traded back & given tampa Doug martin, I'd of taken him, and then wolfe, thats not hindsight thats how i felt during the draft about Martin, wolfe I didnt know anout and hes a great pick, plus later with the 2 trades thet made they admitted making a mistake and lost the extra 4th round pick to trade back f down forgot for who
also of wanted Brook could have got him later , was way to early for where he is at as is so raw , yes great Potential but so was leaf
I really mist do what i have to babs, dont mean to sound heated on this, just again at 4 PM eastern I get tons needed to do so answering posts gets rushed, hope u understand
They believed the draft was 21 players deep this year for the first round but with a lot of depth in the later round. But, please don't mention Doug Martin!!! It's my Kryptnite. LOL. For some reason, they had Wolfe rated higher than him. I obviously don't know what went into their thinking. Just being a fan trying to understand their reasoning. We won't know the full results until a few years later, but it's fun hearing what you think. But please go take care of more important things!

I didn't know there was such a thing called equine phobia.
Come to Denver, honey!

They didnt hedge bet as were counting on Peytons play and instructions to teach Brook they had said and said Brook wasnt in any way ready now, so no Peyton who teaches Brook , he wasnt ready to be thrown in at all and all said was picked way to early, Elway said he loved his 6'7" g height & strong arm and with Peyton to learn from thats why he picked him ,
Sure, Brock is a project, but that doesn't mean that he was not an insurance policy for Denver—if not now, then at least for the future. I understand where you are coming from and I would have been fine if they went all in for "now" approach, but I'm also fine with what they've done given the situation they had at the time.

It doesnt matter if I am denver fan post peyton or not, point is Elway & team said would pick based on WIN NOW MODE Re Peyton signing and draft picking, if thats the case then u dont use 2nd pick to pick a player for future, thats the point
Well, if you remember, there were some (many?) people who didn't believe Peyton would be able to play let alone at this level. I for one cannot blame the team for hedging their bet some. Now that we know, I sure hope they will go full-on win-now mode in the next draft.
-
My 1 peeve, I dont care about future, said it before, If were really in win now mode why take BROOK, If Peyton goes down he cant do a thing, another weapon or another D player would of been more approriate
You might not, but I do care about the future! At least a little bit Can we do both, please?
On the other hand, though, Peyton could outlast Brock's rookie contract. That would be totally fine with me.

I am strangely confident with this one. Normally I'm all squeamish about ANY division games. I just feel that that the Broncos is really starting to gell.
And this helps:

If you are in a mood for a tad nauseating Broncos propaganda (even for me!) on how great a exec John Elway is, you might want this ;) :

Excerpt:
This week’s Monday Morning Manning shows that Peyton Manning is just the second quarterback in the history of the National Football League to have six straight games with a passer rating of 100 or better while having at least 30 attempts in each of those games. Drew Brees did it once, and he and Manning now are the only quarterbacks to have ever accomplished this.

IF NOT MILD - depends on grade
Sternoclavicular joint sprains —
Grade I sprains are treated with ice, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and a sling for one to two weeks.
In Grade II sprains, the sling is worn for three to six weeks.
Grade III sprains require a procedure called closed reduction. This is when the displaced collarbone is carefully slipped back into place after the person has received anesthesia or sedating medicines. Once the collarbone is back in its normal position, the injured shoulder is immobilized using a "clavicle strap" or figure-of-eight splint, along with a sling for four to six weeks. ( DOUBT HE HAS THIS UNLESS NOT BEING TOLD )
Thanks for the info. I had AC joint seperation two years ago skiing. Still not quite right. Reading about Ben's injury makes me think I also had SCJ spain. Do we know what grade he suffered yet? I hope it's mild and he can come back soon.
-
LET it heal first above all , definitely unless he really is incredibly better and then still rotate him in sparingly
I'd hold him out.........this is a pivotal game but we are planning on a long run....we need guys 100% or close to it, in December
I'm sure they will be smart about it. We can and will win this game without him.
-
I'm surprised..I thought it would be seven or eight...
You were so right—I'm always so squeamish about road games... I should listen to you.
as the announcers said, even if Fox won the Challenge and Broncos short a 1st dwn by a few inches, even with Peyton , Fox so conservative he never would have gone for it on 4th so why waste the Challenge & just try the FG anyway as u would if won challenge so no difference
Yeah, at least he knows who he is ;)
Conservative coaches drive me nuts, but so do aggressive coaches. So, I should be fair.
I love JDR's aggressive style when we are playing ahead. It's devastating. It's hard to come back on us.
-
That's very good news..He can miss a week or two...and it wont hurt us..
I think he matters....you have to game plan against him
Yes, yes and yes!
-
Doom's MRI negative!!! Hooray!
-
That dude is definitely a special teams weapon, but he scares me with the way he takes care of the football. He's a fumble waiting to happen at the wrong time in a big game. If he can take care of that issue, i'd definitely say he's the real deal. I don't see him as a very good receiver though. Maybe for a play or two.
Agreed. After his first game debacle, I thought no wonder Houston cut him, but some people including John Elway preached patience. When he has the ball, he is amazing. Our special team was good but our returners lacked speed until now. I don't see him as a receiver material but he could be good for trick plays/decoy. I was excited that he was lined up with Ronnie Hillman in one snap.
-
Maybe true, but need the depth and him healthy plus other teams worry about him and try things tio stop him
I'm with John Fox—I'm dreading the (perhaps strong) possibilty of losing Doom. He might not have the stats or the flash of Von, but he's been productive this season.
-
That's the best point.....he's smart enough to know that this could be an AFC championship ride and he wants in...
He should be grateful for the 2nd chance...and he CAN make plays
I dont care if he plays until December.......we have a lot of minor injuries..he WILL help
Yeah, he says he loves the town and the club. I believe it now.
And I agree, DJ will help whether he will take same snaps at Mike or come in nickle situations. We have a good problem of having more starter-type players than we can play. With Doom's status uncertain, we could use more depth and potentially go 3-4 look occasionally.
-
I picked the Saints to win this week...what a great and exciting game..right down to the last few seconds....
You are a lot smarter than I am. Good for you!

D.J. Williams will officially return Monday to the Broncos after the two sides recently agreed to a restructuring of his contract.
Broncos coach John Fox decided not to have him participate in training camp or preseason games so he could instead give reps and playing time to others —
Williams is expected to use the first week or two getting back in playing shape.
He has started at all three linebacker positions.
Suddenly, we don't feel quite so thin at LB.
Good move by the Broncos. Woodyard's play helped the team renegotiate, I'm sure ;) I was ready to let him go, but I appreciate that he wants to stay and is willing to take a pay cut to do so. I feel bad that he lost so much money and hope he can keep his head straight.

Next Week Charges come to town
Thanks a lot for the game notes, Barry! I didn't have the visuals, so it's good to read what you saw.
I'm pleased with the win on the road again. It's amazing how our D is coming together. I hope JDR will stay with us at least a while. And Holiday! I'm glad the Broncos was more patient than a lot of the fans (me included) who wanted to run him out of town after his first game. Yet another good pick up by John Elway.
And Tony Carter, Von Miller. Wow!. Von is a game changer.
Nothing about Doom yet. We'll see how bad he is injured. And I hope DT is okay too.
-
What do you want me to say Jules? We Just showed them who's boss as we always do!
Saints have won what now? 7 out of the last 8 games against Atlanta?
If we sweep them, it will be even more funny, and that is a possibility.
What a fun game to watch. Thanks for exposing Atlanta.
Great win! Congrats!

Babs u should of seen the indy star versu ion, a shame u need to pay & sign up just to see if still in archive
Had 6 photo galleries, various parts of his llife , like in backyard as little kids throwing to each-other or dinning room activities, Record moment photos, SB 41 link with over 442 photos now gone
some really greart early year stuff etc etc
al;so the meter itself moved and saw list before and after where he was & u could adjust the various movements, was so much more to it. but this Bronco blogger, u also have to pay I think / or just join at leaast put this up just I dont know how aaccurate
I am sure in time will be a Luck Meter put out by indy start
This is simply a list, Original had moving faces
Too bad. I would have like to have seen that.
In all seriousness, though, if Peyton plays out his Denver contract, he can break all these records—not even going to be that hard for him.
-
No, let's not teach him how to be cool. I love his awkward spiking. It's really cute. His geekiness is part of his wholesome farm boy charm. I love it that he does not possess the athlete "cool." Why take away something so unique?
-
i figured luck had broken these already
That's too funny!

Someone should read a revenue chart for Richardson to see how much money he tied into 2 running backs that are doing nothing this year and all the other players he resigned from his crappy team the previous year.
And as it turns out, Peyton is a better businessman than he is:

Here is Scott Kacsmar's article listing Peyton's quick return to dominance is the season's biggest surprise so far. The second biggest? The Colts, of course. Enjoy.
Eric Berry has equine phobia

Yeah, glad you noticed. It's a fun place to visit.
LOLOLOL. They picked the photo of Elway looking particularly equine. Do the Colts have a live horse come out like Denver? If so, too bad the KC game is not in Indy.
