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.

If Cutler was able to play at Denver this year, would the Denver fans still boo him? Just curious
I love Denver and you guys are the best site!
Thanks!

I tell you I love Elway! He was my hero growing up. I loved the way he threw the ball with velocity! I love that in a QB. This is why I am a Cutlerfan!!
I always cheer for him to do well. Didn't feel that way when he first left. But when he plays denver im hoping he does nothing and the bears don't score at all.
To be honest, I wish McDaniels never came around! The 2008 Denver team was awesome, at least the Offense was. I still have a picture of the 2008 Denver Team in my office here at Vanderbilt!

Is it wrong of me to want the place to burn down with him in it?
But why? He was good at Denver!

I have gained a lot of respect for him this year. That said, if he was playing I would boo until I lost the ability to boo.
Is it because he is playing against the Broncos, or because he was traded?
I just don't understand. Some players come back and the other team respects what they did. Here is what he did for Denver in 2008.
+++++++++++++
» He guided the second-ranked offense in the NFL.
» He was No. 1 in fewest percentage of sacks, with 11 in 627 pass plays. That equates to one sack every 57 pass attempts.
» He was No. 3 in the NFL in third-down efficiency, the "money" down. The average NFL team converted 39.5 percent of its third downs; Cutler converted 47.5 percent.
» He was No. 3 in the AFC in yards per pass play (7.3).
» He threw for more yards than Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Donovan McNabb, Philip Rivers, Tony Romo and Ben Roethlisberger, to name a few.
» He had just two 100-yard rushing days from a running back all season: Peyton Hillis (129 against the Jets) and Michael Pittman (109 against the Jacksonville Jaguars).
» He had eight games of 300-plus passing yards (five of those at 350 or more), connecting for 15 touchdowns in those contests.
» Sure, he threw 18 interceptions, which is unacceptable, but his ratio of picks to attempts was 1:34, which tells a slightly different story. Last season, Brees had an interception every 37 pass attempts. Favre's ratio was 1:23, and Roethlisberger's was 1:31. Cutler's career ratio is 1:33.
» Only Jacksonville's David Garrard threw more passes in the fourth quarter of games than Cutler, who completed 100 of 167 passes for 1,212 yards and 11 touchdowns with just four interceptions.
8-8 Record - well Denver Defense gave up 450 points last year over 28 points per game!
The league Average a Defense gives up is 21 points per game.

I hated the pick. I hate his ego. I hate his smirk. I hated his INTs when he was here. I hated the fact that he'd go down the field only to turn the ball over. I hated that from the moment he came here that we stopped using our bread & butter to win games. We abandoned the running game & neglected the D. We were all about showcasing him & proving that we could draft well. Prior to Cutler, drafting had been a disaster, so HE HAD TO SUCCEED with Cutler

At first I've hated the guy. But we really need to move on at this point. Face it the Bears have already had Cutler longer than we have, and he's happy there. Also he appears to be maturing as he ages..
Call it a wash guys, he's not in our conference so why not wish the man the best with his endeavors
