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.

who's been making the better work in training camp so far? (RB)
The truth of the matter to any observer in Dove Valley without bias would show that Tatum Bell and Mike Bell have been the most effective backs over the past few days. Each back to date has had their moments, but based on consistency -- Tatum and Mike have done the best out of the field. On fumbling, each back has had problems over the course of camps -- a lot of Dayne supporters fail to realize that Dayne has had fumbling problems too. Everyone has.
Camp is just the start, and in the four pre-season games -- we'll find the true winners out of the bunch.
Yeah, the one practice I went to the bells both looked good and dayne was alright, but, I just dont like what Im seeing. He is nimble but he isnt too quick and he doesnt run with power. I really would rather have mike bell out there. But once again, we need to wait for pre-season to judge Mike Bell.
From everything I have heard, Dayne is working with the first unit. Bell has some fumblitis issues and Dayne is hitting the holes fast and hard.
I really can't imagine where you have been hearing that because, according to reports brought to us through Kaylore & company from the Mane, Dayne has been having significant problems. Tatum and Mike Bell both have shown better vision and burst and have been more effective hitting the holes. While the Bells have been running the ball, Dayne apparently has been somewhere behind the LOS, giving dancing lessons.
If I remember correctly, Mike Bell ran for 3 touchdowns during saturday's practice and Tatum ran for one.
But the big difference was, Mike Bell was gain the tough yards, he was hitting the hole at full speed taking on linebackers and moving the football, Tatum was met in the hole a number of times and knocked back for no gains.
Im not dissing Tatum but in my opinion Mike is alot further ahead of him at this point.

It would seem that Dayne finally had a somewhat better day yesterday, but otherwise what you say is what I've been hearing too.

Dayne got a chance to carry a few times on saturday but he produced very little yardage and wasnt flashy at all.
Shanny knows this and I have a feeling he already knows who his starter is going to be.
Mike Bell might not have played with the first unit all that much but he seemed to be carrying the football alot more than anyone else.

It has become apparent to me that Denver needs a back who can drive people backwards. Witness TD, Gary, Droughns, MA, and even Portis. If Tater does not get a little nastier, he find himself watching MB play football in the future.
However, I understand that D-Will could not catch Tater on his run, before he reached the goal line. I would have loved to see those two streaking down the field together. That must have been some display of speed!
