The “rules” surrounding the hits on QBs are so inconsistent it is ridiculous though.

Have no clue what defenders are supposed to do anymore. Some refs call a swipe on the helmet as a defender is engaged with a blocker, some will call a push out of bounds when a QB is still inbounds,...

[FR Tim]

Think the statement is more correctly “having the right QB”. Not just any random drafted or free agent.

So far the “right QB” has not arrived....

[FR Tim]

I would have loved to see him hit Mahomes too. But let’s face it, that level of competitive intensity is not apart of the team culture.

The line in the sand was established a couple weeks ago. There was little criticism or accountability directed at Bridgewater when he made his “ business...

Questionable whether “Rypien is easily more talented then Bridgewater”

One is a longtime journeyman QB. The other a practice squad player that no one signed to steal him away from the Broncos. Just my opinion but I view Rypien as even less physically talented the Bridgewater. And just...

This “ should have drafted a QB” argument is useless.

The Broncos offense would still be coached by Shurmur. With all his unimaginative play calling that lacks any creativity.

Fangio would still be trying to save his job by choosing the “safe” QB.

A...

Rypien is not the answer. Neither is Lock. The team decided to keep the coaches and go with Bridgewater.

So why change that now? There is an old saying, “ you made your bed now lie in it”

As disappointing as this is as a fan, Broncos should be sticking with this group...

[FR Tim]

So tired of watching the Broncos offense, especially when comparing to other teams across the league.

No creativity of play calling or execution. So risk averse it astounds me. Bridgewater Is the perfect choice that run it. He excels at it! Fangio and Shurmur got exactly what they wanted....

[FR Tim]

I’ve had the POV that coaching/ play calling has severely hindered any Lock development. At least thinking that he had improved enough to keep Bridgewater off the field.

But that interception by Lock revealed just how poor a decision maker Lock truly is. That play was horrible and one...

[FR Tim]

Two things.

One, I doubt Lock is saying much of anything. Excessively calling out Bridgewater would be a negative and just make him look bad as a leader IMO. Other players can show disdain but Lock would just look whiny and unprofessional IMO.

Two. An “aggressive Bridgewater”...

Good coaching goes hand in hand with the concept of putting a player in the best position to succeed. Does that sound like Shurmur?

Another example of “ good coaching” is with the Cardinals. Imagine losing Murray and having to rely on Colt McCoy… and he succeeds!

As...

[FR Tim]

That is Sutton’s fault. He runs all his routes beyond the first down marker.

Glad to see the contracts locking in key players. It is a slow process but work is being done to build some consistently....

[FR Tim]

The question of what are the suggestions for a plan go deeper then which QB is drafted, signed, or traded for.

IMO it revolves more around the coaching concepts and system. Who are the Broncos? What is their offensive philosophy? Do they draft or sign the players to support these systems?...

[FR Tim]

QB development is as much about the coaching and play calling as it is the talent of a young player.

How does the team, system and coaches support what a young QB does well and minimize what they don’t. Compare the all in support teams like the Ravens and Cardinals gave their young...

What is interesting about the “ dummy down” quote above is it came from February. Right after the season ended.

All reports from the off- season were he was working his butt and off, getting coaching and film study and improving. Which seemed to be the case in August. Not perfect but...

[FR Tim]

Of course I would be happy if the Broncos win. I’ll take any win any week. If they can somehow make it to the playoffs even better.

Bridgewater is who thought he would be as a player. This latest fiasco was unexpected though from such a respected player. IMO he lost a lot of respect...

[FR Tim]

Not so sure, I doubt Lock would have a chance if Shurmur called the play with Fant solo blocking an elite pass rusher.

Whether the safest play or not I would guess that Lock would at least risk his completion percentage by throwing past the down marker or into ( not over ) the end zone...

[FR Tim]

Curious where you are getting the impression he is a “spoiled brat with a rich daddy” or his “lack of professionalism “?

I must have missed those stories. Maybe you can cite some examples.

Most of the stories I saw or heard over the off-season were relating how hard...

[FR Tim]

Unfortunately both are just more Bronco miscues to find a way to lose.

IMO two entirely different issues. Gordon was a football play where he screwed up (again!) by fumbling. Not giving him a pass but frustrating.

In Bridgewater’s case you have a football player not being...

[FR Tim]

Seems the coaches and organization have been really clear. Bridgewater is starting.

At this point I have no clue how to evaluate Lock. But the message is clear, he will not be playing.

Over the summer I was definitely thinking Lock should be the starter. Bridgewater is pretty...

[FR Tim]

The WRs, TEs and even RBs are talented enough to be contributing more.

IMO the top issue is the playcalling and ability to design creative plays to get players open in space to be able to take advantage of those skills. Rarely do you see players catching the ball at full speed and a lane...
