What's it going to take for McDaniels to get fired? I think they are still paying Shanahan so I don't see it happening even if they really need to. Forcing Cutler out was one of a whole bunch of s***ty moves that would follow.

Passing offense has been the least of the Broncos' worries...

That wasn't the point. McDaniels tried to go behind Cutler's back to trade him for Matt Cassel because McDaniels wanted to run his own system. Which is fine, but Broncos fans all retroactively took McDaniels's side (blaming all of that on Cutler because I guess it was easy) and insisted he knew what he was doing with the personnel decisions. Then he's made a whole series of stupid decisions that I won't list all of here, but he fired Nolan (the real reason the Broncos started off the season 6-0 last year), traded away Hillis for Brady Quinn and then traded up to draft Tebow anyway, etc. That team is a laughingstock and they have the same record as the Vikings, I think.

 

It's pretty funny the lengths Bronco homers go to defend and deflect blame though. They say silly things like the offensive line is terrible... lol come on now.

Too bad they aren't real.

No Packers one?

 

Not that I want them changed, just curious.

They have one of the best young OLines in the league, actually. McDaniels is a bright guy, but I think he's got a bit of the God Complex going...

Really excited for this Bears - Eagles game tomorrow....hopefully one of the things the Bears learned is to push Vick to his right when he escapes the pocket, as he is much less-inclined to throw the ball than when he is scrambling to his left.

 

Going to be a tough game...but should be our best litmus test since the Packer game.

I think the issue with this is...everyone's been saying this about Vick since the Giants game last week. There's every reason to believe the Iggles will be expecting this.

Well it's not really a matter of the Eagles expecting it...it's a matter of Vick being left-handed and not being particularly wonderful at throwing across his body, like most other human beings. That's not to say it's something you necessarily try to do intentionally, but rather something to remember when you do force Vick out of the pocket. Contain him to the left, flush him to the right.

McDaniels/Broncos being fined for illegally taping a practice. That is hilarious to me.

I wonder if this was his idea when the Pats got accused of doing it back in 08', or if he is just taking what he learned from Bellichick and bringing it to Denver...

If nothing else, they've fired the guy who did the taping and said "Mcdaniels turned down the chance to view the tape". So, if it was organized by him, somehow he got the recording guy to take the fall.

The only thing that sucks about going home for a weekend (or Holiday like Thanksgiving) is that I miss the Bears games when I'm traveling back to Knoxville (6 hour drive). And this is one game I'm really going to hate missing.

As much as I hate to say this, I love the Packers today against an overrated Atlanta team...

 

Plays for the day...

 

GB +2.5

Baltimore - 7.5

Seattle +2.5

Carolina +9.5

San Diego +3

San Diego/Indy under 51.5

 

I think I am going to enter the Hilton SuperContest next year. $1,500 entry. Pick 5 games every week. Winner usually hits between 57-60% of his/her picks and takes home around $200k. Since the start of last season, I've hit 56.7% against the spread picking ALL games. Could probably bump that a few percentage points if I only picked 5 games per week....
