The Patsification of Denver continues. But, wait, we gave them McDaniels, who gave him back... And Lloyd was a Bronco... so maybe it's the Broncification of New England, I dunno...
Anyway... The Pats' O-line looked like crap all preseason, and Waters apparently isn't coming back. So, on the one hand, I don't understand why they let Koppen go. On the other hand, it leads me to think that if he had anything left in the tank they wouldn't have. |

Um, did we even bring him in for a look? Seems like he'd be a great fit. Good depth behind an inexperienced guy.

Nobody knows NE's protections better than Koppen. Very smart signing by Elway.

The Donk's interior line is terrible. In truth, it's why Orton didn't make it and Tebow started over Quinn imo. It's because he could scramble. Their tackles are alright but, they're interior gets owned when pass blocking. KC should be very good at blitzing up the middle against Denver this year without Tebow.
The signing of Koppen is a desperate move imo. They couldn't get Saturday last spring and they had to target DTs in the draft because they were the priority. Elway NEEDED Manning to make this work. I'm sure he wanted Manning but, without him they would have had to stick with Tebow with the guards and center they had. Manning's timing offense and quick release will help make up their interior line weakness. They would suck if they didn't have manning. Check out how these losers graded out in the top #32 at their position at the end of last year. Zane Beadles ranked #31 LG http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...-guards/page/3 Chris Cooper ranked #26 RG http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...-guards/page/8 J.D. Walton ranked #29 C http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...centers/page/5 (I know it's Bleacher Report but, it is a reasonable gauge in this instance. They are alright in these rankings imo.) |

Are you seriously quoting Bleacher Report as a credible source?

No, it's pretty easy to see they suck. I also explained about the source. Someone who has a pff subscription let us know where they rank. It will be similar.
That's a pretty stupid comment there mouth fingerer. |

Bleacher Report is a piece of shit website, but they are correct that the interior of our O-Line is weak. When the Broncos brought Harris in I thought maybe they'd put him in at RT and move Franklin inside to help out. That didn't happen, and I don't care for a "work in progress" Offensive Line, but it is what it is. Peyton Manning absolutely does help with this. The thing is, if Manning can read the blitz he's going to burn D's for trying to take advantage of it.
