The One that Got Away

1. Yo, Drew:

   The Broncos HAD that running back and absolutely made my day when they gave Peyton Hillis to the Browns AND took Brady Quinn off Cleveland’s hands. I’m just sayin’ . . .

2. I feel like the problem is Orton. He cant throw to save his life. I said this last week when rookie Dalton tossed for almost double what our so call vet did. It is pathetic. I don’t know if Tebow is the answer, but you know Can’t hurt, might help, always a crowd pleaser. Need i remind everyone that he did play outstanding football as a starter last season. Just sayin…….. I guess ill donate to the billboard.

3. Good Morning from OMaha,

   both the chiefs and the bronco’s are on the verge- of something. Good bad or otherwise. Both teams had their chance yesterday- while the bronco’s chance was better than the chiefs- to win.

   the bronco’s couldn’t get the longest yard and the chiefs threw an interception on a screen pass and let the charges run out the clock.

   Its the NFL and both teams are building or rebuilding hopefully into a formidable force again in the NFL or at least we can hope they are.

   Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.

4. I saw a lot I liked. The offense played much better for 3 quarters, the coaching staff made decent adjustments at half time, and the defense held the running game under 100 yards. Huge improvements over last year and last week. I like that the team is improving week to week. Never saw that with McDaniels.

   Bronco fans are spoiled. They apparently did not get the memo that rebuilding means losing. A lot. I’d rather end up 4-12 with a bunch of close games like this than getting blow out at home by double digits.

5. The play calling was abysmal yesterday.

   Vaughn sucks as a CB, get him off this team.

6. Orton, and Plummer before him, must be damned tired of hearing “There is no I in team”. Until there’s a loss then it changes to “But there is a U in lose.”

7. I know NFL is in full swing (except for my Chiefs – who also blew their opportunity against Marmalard Rivers), but you just had a GREAT MMA card up there in Colorado! Jones vs. Rampage with a 4th round tapout! Show some love to The Cage, Drew!

   Or, a toon about the Lions and Bills. In Buffalo, they’re partying like it’s 1992, and Detroit is confused by the success of their Non-Red Wing teams.

8. This loss is on John Fox. Rule #1: Never take points off the board. Never, ever go for a touchdown on 4th down on the goal line with a so-so team. Get your field goal. Be thankful for every point you can score.

9. gene,

   Go easy on the Chiefs. They’re tied with the Colts and both teams have a perfect season going, so far. 🙂
