The Broncos would like to thank Carl Peterson, Vermeil and Gunther Gunningham for keeping the 2003 team and philosophy in tact.
Holmes ... you can gain 150 yards and 3 TDs every time you play the Broncos if it means the Broncos win by 10. Best of luck on your personal goal towards 2,400 yards!

Well, I dunno ... we'll see how it goes. I was and still am extremely happy with how the game went and how Q performed.
But, I'm still cautiously optimistic about the rest of the season. Jake still makes me nervous on 4 out of every 10 offensive drives... I fear the effectiveness of the TE/receiver depth and the Oline. So, I'm not resetting my season expectations just yet... it's way too early. I want to see what they do on the road against a tough run defense next week in Jacksonville. If Q is limited, I want to see how the passing game reacts. I think the defense will smother the Jags, so it could be low scoring, but I have no true concerns about Denver losing that one ... should be 2-0 which would be nice.

I have "no concerns" about losing b/c Taylor, while good, is not in the same category as Priest. Fred Taylor on his best day this season will be hard pressed to top what Priest did on Sunday. I look at the Jags' offense and what I think the Broncos' defense will do and that is why I have no concerns. Could they lose? Sure, anything happens.... I have respect and fear their defense. Am I 100% comfortable with Denver's offense right now? No, hardly... they have issues and will have problems on Sunday. The defense will save them.

The Jags should have success running the ball. And the Jags won't EVEN COME CLOSE to giving up 200 yards on the ground. Furthermore, they have Mike Peterson on their defense. Nobody compares, not even KR/PR/WR/RB/S/CB Champ Bailey. |

Not to diss on you, but we have been having this dicussion at work with my Bronco friends. Yes, I am good friends with a couple of broncos and one raiders fan. You only get to face our defense one more time, and it will be at our House. When Jake was taken off the leash, he tied the game back up for us. Jake needs to be kept on a very short leash with a solid running attack to be effective. Just think, this was our defense you did this agianst. We might BE the worst in the league agian. Your bootlegs and misdirections will not work for the majority of the teams your are facing. I still se griffen getting 80+ and td a game, but he will not be anywhere near his Chiefs performance on most games. We will found out this week actually how good your offense is. I believe more balanced teams with a sound defense and average offense will be your achillies heal. Where our is teams with a good defense and quick running backs and mobile QB's is ours... |

And your offense will be lucky to score half of what you did agianst the Jagoffs... You our not playing our defense week in, week out... For Denver to win in agianst jacksonville you need to: win the turnover battle... put plummer on a short leash.. and grind out the clock with the running game.. |

Is the KC offense vastly superior to that of the Jags? Is Taylor on the level of Priest Holmes? The answers are yes, yes and no. I've stated their run defense is levels better - I've questioned Denver's offensive success if Q is contained. Did you miss those statements? I think Denver's defense will hold the Jags from scoring more than 10-13 points. I do believe that Denver can score 13 or more points on Sunday. That's all. Valiant - Plummer had success in games against teams other than KC in 2003. They ran misdirection and bootlegs then as well. Fellas - I'm not predicting the Broncos will romp the Jags 49 - 10. I'm not prediciting this is a SuperBowl bound team. I've admitted that I still question their ability and I realize (even typed it) that they had nice success and a win against a Chiefs' defense that is just as shameful as it was a year ago. If this is smug, then I'm smug... I think I'm fairly within reason to have confidence and to expect a win against the Jags. I'll be back later on ... carry on.
