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.

Everybody's got a plan 'til they get punched in the mouth...
Just an interesting quote the announcers used before last night's game. Jackson will have trouble staying healthy as time goes on, not a smart runner, not a smart QB.

Russel Wilson is the one that got away.
Given how atrocious Wilson's line has been for most of his career his passing stats are pretty incredible. Wilson is hands down the best QB playing right now. He has a career average passer rating of over 100.

While I like Russell Wilson and think he is very good qb who I would love to have in a Broncos uniform, he won't even be the best qb to take the field in the game he is playing in today.
LJ is a good and dangerous QB who had a very strong year, but I will still take proper passing QB's like Bree's, Mahomes, Brady, etc........ any day of the week. The Ravens catered the offense to his skills and they can be very hard to stop but when they fall behind and the 'option' is not working then LJ is not accurate or good enough to dice a D up and bring the team back from multiple scores. I thought he was inaccurate most of the night, barring a few good throws, and his stats are a complete misrepresentation of how he performed.
I said the other week that we need to look at LJ in a year or two because D's always figure out how to slow down funky offenses like the Ravens 'option' offense. I'm not saying it has been figured out but Tennesee clearly had a plan how to contain him and largely it worked barring the odd big run, I expect next season that more D's will have the blueprint of stopping that style of offense.
QB's like Vick and LJ are great to watch a dangerous, but are not consistently accurate enough or good enough to read D's to become elite QB's. Give me a 'proper' QB any day of the week.
It isn’t even like the option wasn’t working for them, they ran the ball well, the Titans just ran it better. But the Ravens did miss Mark Ingram and Mark Andrews as they missed large chunks of the game and those are Jackson’s big time safety valves. There was also some bad drops that really hurt. Jackson didn’t look like he did passing the ball in the regular season last night and I do think nerves got to him as the ball wobbled a lot more than it usually does for him. He was either gripping it too hard or trying to throw too hard.

why is that. there are maybe 2 Qbs off the top of my head i would take over Wilson to build a team around Watson and Mahomes. but that is mainly age not talent.

I personally think Rodgers is a better qb and would rather have him then Wilson any day. If it came down to making the clutch throw under pressure I'll take Rodgers and not think twice. Now if we bring other qbs and age into account, I would take Mahomes over both. He may lack the experience but the he has the talent and just keeps getting better. I hate that KC has him. I hope Lock does well and I am grateful we have him but I'd take Mahomes in a heartbeat if we could get him.

the thing i am looking to build a team around him. maybe not having a team in place right away. if i was gonna build an offense around a QB it would be Mahomes Or Watson. Rodgers would be there if i had a team ready to win now and just needed a QB. but i am speficially looking for a QB to lead my team for the next 5 years. and Rodgers Age just would prevent that. i think he was 3 or so more good years in the tanks. while Watson or Mahomes will be studs for the next 10-15 years at least. so i would be trying to build around them. i really like Watson he is super Clutch. if he had a better team and a better coach he would for sure be in hte mvp conversation every day
