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.

I caught some of the Texans game today, and Dayne performed well, looks lighter and quicker. I think he's got a great shot at it. Bell needs to stop losing the ball, and prove he's a tough inside runner. I think Clarrett and Dayne will really push for 1st string.

If Bell fumbles in the next few pre-season games, he will drop on the DC like an anchor. No matter how fast you are or how high the potential, you can't give the ball away, especially with Plummer at QB.
The fumbles, wasn't that the knock on Bell when he was drafted?

I was at practice today and let me say that Ron Dayne was a standout. He looked like the Dayne of old running for wisconsin. I think he has a shot at starting this year.
Who do you think should start?
I think dayne should be given the chance to start agaist the rams and show he can run against the 1st team the same way he ran against the back ups.and clarrett should be released his a cry baby and will never be one of the bronco greats if he keeps being this way

dayne has a very good chance but clarrett may not even make the team
I am a former high school English teacher who loves coaches and athletes. In fact, I played college level football. Having said that, I for the life of me cannot fathom why you would go to the trouble of all those keystrokes to capitalize every word in a sentence.

I THINK THE BOARDS DO THAT IF SOMEONE TYPES A POST IN ALL CAPS.
Regarding Clarett, I see him as a bigger, more athletic Olandis Gary, or a lighter Dayne. If he stays healthy, keeps a good attitude, holds on to the ball and learns the offense, he will push for the starting job. I think Q will be the one on the cutting block, due to durability issues, and that Bell can fill for that change of pace back.

From superspeed stud to change of pace back! MY how the tater tots are bailing off the tater wagon.

That's what happens when people get onto a given player's bandwagon before camp even begins, and without reading up on the respective players in the readily available media.
Still, as I mentioned in another thread, there is no question Tater can run the ball. It would seem his blocking is the outstanding issue between him and MA. What do you think?
funny......but true i wonder how many of these die hard tator heads have completly forgot he was the savior of the broncos
But he was #2 draft choice and therefore was going to be the saviour of the franchise now that poorti$$$ was gone.
Almost everyone got on the wagon forgoing the existing RB's we had. Speed is a killer, everything else was forgotten.
Football is a basic game. Blocking and tackling. Everyone of the squad has to be able to do both along with their particular talents, running with, catching or throwing the ball.
As most know I like Q for many reasons, humble, talented, almost shy to a fault, but because of his lack of size he had to be better at the game that everyone else that was taller, heavier or faster.
I just want whoever is best at running the ball to do it. If it is Q great if not we need the best RB on the field in order to succeed.

YEP!
I agree from what I have seen and heard. Perhaps hanging on to the ball fits in here also. Heard he has coughed it up a few times in practice. Seems to be tentative . Because I did not see the game, nor have I read much about it I really don't know if that area has been fixed.
