Agree Vic is probably a better HC than your last one, but then again he has never been in total charge before. I think Vic is a great DC but like Wade before him may well fail as an HC.
Does not take much to be an upgrade over Keenum. Can Flacco still beat teams with his arm? He has been an average regular season QB for his whole career throwing double digit picks every year but 2018 when he lost his starting job to a rookie. What Flacco has to prove is that he can get his team back to the playoffs something he has not done since the 2014 season even with great defense to prop him up.
Running game could have a very god 1-2 punch in Lindsay and Freeman.
So with pretty much the same defense in place your Broncos are going to jump 12 spots in the standings this year? Not really seeing that either. Good, solid D, but not top 10.
Your O has a long way to go with an average QB at the helm, OL has to step it up from last year, as said running game should be good, young receivers have to carry more of the load this season.
In general Denver looks to be a third place team. In 2015 you had a great defense that carried the Broncos to a championship. In 2019 not so much, a good defense..... yes, great..... no.
See you in week two.

With our d and 24 pts a game we gonna won some games.
The Bears were good last year but they only played 4 playoff teams.
Beat Rams ( thanks to Fangio, O only managed 15 pts).
Lost to the Pats
Beat the Seahawks ( Denver beat Seattle as well)
In the playoffs lost to Philly.
This year they will play a first play schedule, I see them coming down to earth. And Bic knows what Trubisky struggles with 😉
Yes the Bears play a first place schedule, but no one can fully predict which 2018 playoff teams will fail in 2019. In the NFC.....will the Rams suffer a Super Bowl hangover, Will the Saints take a step back. Brees looked old and average over the last 6 weeks of the season, and into the playoffs. Can Dak overcome the drama and lead the Cowboys to the playoffs two years in a row. In Philly can Wentz stay healthy? Do the Seahawks have enough juice to jump ahead of the Rams, Will Trubisky make a second year leap in Nagy's offense and become a more consistent quarterback. The odds say 2 or 3 of these teams won't make the 2019 playoffs, who that will be is any ones guess.

CHJ<>fuller
kareem>dix
Jackson><simmons
Callahan<>prince
if you look at the production of guys like fuller, dix and prince you will see a huge upswing in PD and INTs with Mack coming to town coached by an aggressive DC....they will still have mack, but coached by one year DC pagano...I don't know in what fools world anybody thinks pagano is equal too Fangio as a DC
the same as if you look at the drop off in wolfe with DC wade to woods...2015,16 73 solo, 11 sacks to DC woods in 2017,18...49 solo, 3.5 sack
a good DC makes a hell of a differance
the only real advantage the bears have is at ILBsigpicwhen do native Americans become human and not mascots

Originally posted by bears6385 View PostWhen you attempt to predict a teams schedule before the season starts it may very well look completely different by the end of the season. Last year at this time the Bears had 8 games against teams that had a winning record. Of those 2017 teams 5 games were against playoff teams. It was 2 games against the Vikings, then the Pats, Bills, and Rams, also 3 games against non-playoff teams the Seahawks and 2 against the Lions. In those games the Bears went 7-1, that is the main reason we ended up only playing 3 regular season games against playoff teams plus kicking the Viking to the curb to keep them out of the playoffs.

Sometimes big changes to a team make a difference of having a really good season or a complete bust like the Broncos had the last two years. Let's all wait and see what transpires over the course of the first five games of the season. We Bronco fans will definitely be on the edge of our seats the first five games @Oakland, Chicago, @Green Bay, Jacksonville, @Chargers. Pretty tough test for a revamped Bronco team. NOBODY knows with certainty how those five games will play out. NOBODY! Who shows up to play, who doesn't. Who will make bonehead mistakes who doesn't. A total guessing game, IMO.

Originally posted by TommyBrady12 View PostWe'll see if Fangio makes that much of a difference. But based on last year, Denver's D was not that good while Chicago's was. I suspect Chicago D will take a bit of a hit without Fangio, but not sure how much, and Denver D will improve slightly. I don't think Denver will be a top 3 defense though.
1. secondary
2. coaching
Callahan, Kareem, yiadom,, craven
is heads above pacman, t brock, roby and stewart
and there is nowhere on earth that anyone would consider joe woods and his two miserable seasons as DC a better defensive coach than Fangio
in 2015-16 the defensive secondary gave up
13 tds...and a qb rate of 69.7
19 tds and a qb rateing of 78.8
under Joe woods 2017-2018
26 tds and a qb rating of 91.9
29 tds and a qb rating of 90.7
clearly the coaching and seconday were a weaknesssigpicwhen do native Americans become human and not mascots

Originally posted by baphamet View Postyour biggest weakness last year and this year is the OB position. if the broncos even had a decent starter they would be a borderline playoff team.
and yes the offense was an issue with case, who was terrified of opening up the passing game and the predictable vanilla play calling and offensive scheme
no matter what you state as you cry about..."your just looking at melvins stats not anything else"
you condemn flacco without looking at the surrounding issues. like a lack of talent around him, a coach hell bent on winning by defense
flacco is a better more experienced qb than keenum, now with a better oline, better wrs, better rbs and fresh offense scheme the offense as a whole will be betterLast edited by arapaho; 08-28-2019, 12:29 PM.sigpicwhen do native Americans become human and not mascots

the ravens absolutely have a better OL than the broncos, it was better last year and it's very likely to be better this year as well. where the hell do you get your homer ideas from?
you also have no idea if the scheme will be better, it could be better, or......it could be worse for the running game as you have a rookie OC who could end up terrible.
enough of the puke orange koolaid, the season is about to start and thus reality will soon start to set in.sigpic
