I'm surprised that you sell your team so short. The Broncos showed us all a lot about their heart yesterday. I mean, there was a team, a Josh McDaniels team, whose starters were getting blown off their home field 13-0. But did they give up? No. Did they falter? No. They looked across the field and saw the Detroit Lions looking at them. They dug down DEEP & said, "We're just as good as these guys! We are every bit as good as the Detroit Lions!" And they fought, and they scratched & bit. And they almost tied the game. And now every rival AFCW fan is forced to admit something they were afraid to face - that the Broncos stand a very good chance of being just as good as the Detroit Lions this year. What we saw on the field yesterday proves to one & all that... maybe Denver doesn't have the talent of the Lions, maybe they are saddled with Josh McDaniels as their coach... but there is now every reason to believe that they have the guts and the gumption to go step-for-step, play-for-play with a team like the Detroit Lions. Look, folks, the Lions went 2-16 in 2009. Denver may not equal the record of Detroit, but they have the heart to come pretty damn close.
