    I was watching (the other night) the beginning of the spin that is Broncos football analysis on Fox Sports Rocky Mtn.

    There are 3 reasons IMO why the Broncos will not equal their accomplishments from last season.

    1) There is more uncertainty @ RB. Though, If anyone can fix that its Shanahan.
    2) There wil be more pressure on Plummer and we all know what happens when he forces things.
    3) This is the real clincher. Kubiak, who was the brains of the coaching staff IMO, is now in Houston.

    Yes. I do & the Rockies too. Being stuck in the Mtn Time Zone is not easy for a phins fan.

    Seriously, What do you think of my rationale for the Donkeys crashing & burning?

    I think they will be same as always. good enough to contend, not good enough to win it all.

    IMO that offense will do great if the decide to keep Ashley Lelie. Lelie led the league in avg yards per catch last year and probly would be the best #3 WR in the league. That tandem of Walker, Smith and Lelie would keep 6 or 7 DBs in the game for 3 WR set which would in turn free up that running game.


    The only real key they lost on defense was trevor pryce, and added elvis dumervil to replace him. dumervil is undersized but flat out gets to the QB. They have tremendous LBs, probly the best tandem of 3 in the league. They have Champ Baliey, John Lynch, and those 3 corners that drafted last year.

    I definetly think they will in the playoffs, and i boldly predict the SB as a Carolina win over the broncos.

    Boldly? Seeing how they went to NFC title game last year, how bold of a pick is it for a fan of a team to pick them as super bowl champs vs another team that went to the AFC title game?

    Then i boldly predict that putting ice in water will make the water colder, and melt the ice!

    Broncos dont have the running game anymore. Well Tatum Bell and Mike Bell are good but they are no Mike Anderson. Tatum has showed signs of being very injury prone. And their division is getting tougher. I dont see them having the same season as last year.

    Their season may not be as good as last year, but keeping San Diego and the Chiefs behind them in their division will assure them a play-offs spot.. i would rather have the Chiefs take that spot other than the Broncos, but there season hasn't been half bad!

    I think Denver will be better Cutler will step in and make some big plays.. he will make mistakes but he will make his plays.. Denver is still 7-2 despite a piss poor run game and Jake Plummers struggles.. That Defense is good and will carry this franchise well into next year
