Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Whatever PFF says, Brady is clearly in terminal decline. It's not just his box score numbers from the first two games, he doesn't even look like the same player from 4-5 years ago. In fact, the Buccs would probably be doing slightly better had they retained Winston.
Now of course the Bucs has a strong all round team. That's why Brady went there in the first place. However, rhose other pieces will not consistently win games on their own with only mediocre QB play.
In short, the Bucs is a solid QB away from being a championship team. Unfortunately for them, Tom is not that QB.
2020 Brady is 2015 Manning. A QB who's skills have been in serious decline for years, but he was able to stay good because he knew where every single player would be at all times in the offense he'd been in forever. Now Brady (like Manning in 2015) is in a different offense and has to think that extra split second about what's going on. That split second shows just how much his skills have declined. And it'll get ugly in Tampa with Bruce Arians eager to throw someone else under the bus after each loss.
The Saints are in a similar boat with Brees, his offense has remained the same, but his skills have declined too much. I think the NFC South winner ends up in the 9-7 to 10-6 range, and there's no NFC South teams left playing on the second weekend of the playoffs. If Carolina can get that rebuild in high gear next offseason, and hire a competent coach, they could dominate the division for the next 5 years.
I am stunned. I've lived in NM, in the Dallas sports market, for years, and the FOX station here ALWAYS prioritizes Dallas over Denver when there's a schedule conflict! Not this time!?
Also notice that the entire New England area is getting the game, for the Br*dybunch.
Knowing that AZ never seems to air the Broncos - every surrounding state will have the Broncos on except us ... and I'm back with the NFL ticket - Yay! I'll be watching my Broncos the rest of the season.
I'd love to see Brady on his back a few times today...

I think they're also a HC away from being a championship team. Bruce Arians is good with the X and O's, but he's so intent on always being the smartest guy in the room, and never accepting blame for a loss, he'll always look to throw someone else under the bus. I don't think he can win championships, because players are going to get tired quickly of that routine.

This week Godwin could be a factor again, and Fournette is getting traction. If Gronk ever gets it going, they will be tough down the stretch.

Sadly there is a sizeable amount of Raiders fans here in st louis missouri too...im friends w a few and one owns a sports bar so we all get together and there's like 5-10 raiders fans on any givven sunday and im the token Bronco fan
Like Sam says they are in every state. I got it the worst my dad is a big time raider fan. Luckily I didn't follow in his footsteps but it makes for fun Sundays 😉

Thanks for checking, Sam --it's good to know people in high places!
It would be nice if they are truly alternating fairly now between coverage of the two teams. The priority on Dallas really enraged people in Durango (where my parents live) who are in the ABQ broadcast market. Colorado residents forced to watch a Texas team instead of a Colorado team! I think they've solved that now by temporarily carrying the Denver FOX station on gameday? Not sure...
Unfortunately, I personally know and see more darn Cowpie fans than Broncos fans in the Farmington, Santa Fe and Albuquerque areas where I live or have friends and family, but it's impossible to know which team is more popular for sure. I see Cowpie stickers on cars everywhere, or Cowpie hats. When I pass through Chama too, come to think of it. Their success in the '70s and branding as "America's Team" really has Dallas' popularity widespread across the nation --it's disgusting!
I've also seen a disturbing amount of Raider fans here in NM, particularly among the Native Americans. One of the radio stations in Albuquerque claims to be "The Home of the Raiders".
YUCK.
