C'mon everybody the season is about to get started lets just have a good ol' Donkey-pile pile-on thread.

Good luck with Wiegmann blocking up front. ROFL

Good luck with Ryan Clady gettin pwned every week. ROFL

Good luck with SELVIN YOUNG as your starting RB. ROFL

Who do they have after Young? Andre Hall. ROFL

#1 WR Brandon Marshall ROFL #2 D-JAX ROFL Is that guy still in the league?

Jay Cutler: "Nice to meet you, I mean you kinda suck but my dad says that you might be good someday ..." ROFL

Shanarat has seriously lost his marbles. ROFL

I realize it's only the preseason, but was this really the best day to start this thread? You're calling out a starting offense who only played 3 series last night and came away with 17 points. TDs drives of 80 and 99 yds and the FG drive started on their 20. Yeah, they looked like "crap" last night.

This will be the best Denver offense they have had since Elway left. We always are able to run the ball, and Cutler is playing dang good. We are holding offenses to 3.5 yards per carry this preseason. Last preseason we were giving up 4.6 yards per carry. This is not a 7 win team. Its a 9-12 win team.

I think we go 10-6 at least.

The offense is a year away, it's still way too young. There's a chance they could start 8 guys who have 2 full seasons or less experience this year (Cutler, Young/Hall, Hillis, Marshall, Royal, Clady, Kuper, and Harris), add in Scheffler who will see a ton of playing time too. The future looks good, but their inexperience will be exposed this year.

The defense still needs a lot of help. Guys like Engleberger and Webster shouldn't sniff starting spots in the NFL, and the pass rush is still non-existant from the front 4.

I'd take 8-8 this year.

Yea Denvers offense is very young, that is why last year was so huge for us.
We got a lot of guys experience last year and we are a better team this year.

Cutler looks like he will be a top 5 QB this year, and Marshall looks like he will be in the top 5 at his position as well.

Our DE's aren't anything to brag about outside of Dumerville but our starting DT's are pretty good with Marcus Thomas and Dewayne Robertson.At least we will be able to stop the run this year. And having Champ Bailey and Dre Bly back there helps us a lot.

We went 7-9 with 2 rookie undrafted free agent runningbacks getting the bulk of the carries, a first year starter at QB, a first year starter WR, and rookies all over the defensive line. And had injuries all over the offensive line...Matt Lepsis torn ACL, Tom Nalen torn Bicep Muscle, and Ben Hamilton (severe migraines) missed more than 8 games a piece last year. We are returning 2/3 (Nalen is hurt but you know what Weigman can do) and Ryan Clady has not given up a sack against Mario Williams, Demarcus Ware, and Aaron Kampman.

There is no reason why Denver won't win 3 more games than they did last year. They are better.

Brandon Marshall could be up there. Last year was his first year starting and he was 5th in receptions, 6th in yards, and led all WR's in Yards after the catch.

He might not be right now but by the end of the season there will be no question that Marshall is an elite WR.

Denver is becoming the Chiefs of the Vermeil era. The offense is really looking potent, although a legit RB would put them over the top. But the defense looks worse every time I see it. Absolute abortion of a front seven.

The question is which team are they -- the 2003 edition with a defense that gives up yards and points but makes some key plays, or perhaps the 2004 edition which stopped teams fewer times than it scored on them?

Based on what I've seen they're an 8-8 team with a dynamite QB and a dominant WR, albeit a knucklehead. They don't have the backfield or WR depth to completely dominate on offense every single game which would overcome a terrible defense. Oh, they'll gain some yards on the ground, but a lot of cheap shit that amounts to nothing, just like last year. They really need a Clinton Portis type who can actually find the endzone and draw a defender's attention to the RB, not just staying on staying on their feet.

The Bucs are a tough team on defense. But I don't think their offense is very good at all. Jeff Garcia/Joey Galloway/ Earnest Graham don't scare me one bit.

I think the Chargers wont play to well early in the season with all the injuries they have to key players. But when healthy they are definitely head and shoulders above the rest of the division.

Both/either Denver/KC could have a strength show through that was not looked for in pre-season but is the result of chemistry and coaching once the live bullets fly. You never know until they play.

Denver's offense has been pretty good so far in the preseason. I'm forced to watch by my GF so I've seen every game.
The defense hasn't been much to write home about.
If the injury bug raises it's ugly head especially along the offensive line Denver will be in trouble moving the ball. But then you could say that about any team at the moment.
The Chiefs will have trouble moving the ball unless their O line starts jelling. Contingent on having everyone playing together.
Defense will be the strength of the team. I fully expect they will be a top 15 defense and possibly a top 10.
We'll start to find out in 2 weeks.

I don't believe you're defense will allow you to win enough to get to a WC. Denver's d line still leaves a lot to be desired and like the Chiefs you're LB's are questionable at the moment. Teams will be able to run on Denver as they did last season
That said I would wager that KC will make the playoffs next season and quite possibly before Denver does again.

Both/either Denver/KC could have a strength show through that was not looked for in pre-season but is the result of chemistry and coaching once the live bullets fly. You never know until they play.

This is all just talk since that is all we have to fill the space until the real games start.
Come on regular season let's get it going and let the play speak for itself!

I actually agree with you for the most part. I just don't see Denver making the playoffs this year unless a bunch of other teams fall off pretty significantly. Denver's certainly in better shape than KC right now, but predicting 10-6 is a stretch for me.

I don't believe you're defense will allow you to win enough to get to a WC. Denver's d line still leaves a lot to be desired and like the Chiefs you're LB's are questionable at the moment. Teams will be able to run on Denver as they did last season
That said I would wager that KC will make the playoffs next season and quite possibly before Denver does again.

One thing I am loving about our defense so far is our ability to stop the run. You can tell that stopping the run was the number 1 priority in training camp. This scheme is designed to stop the run.

Last year in the preseason we gave up 4.6 yards per carry and in the regular season we allowed 4.6 yards per carry.

This year in the preseason we are only giving up 3.5 yards per carry. We might get killed on playaction passes this year. But I can promise you we will be able to stop the run.

I dunno. Cutler could easily be Top 10.

You've got Manning, Brady, Romo, Favre, Palmer, Manning, Roethlisberger, Brees, Hasselbeck, then Cutler. I'd put him ahead of Rivers as well.

Top 5 is expecting a bit too much.

As for WR's there is Moss, Wayne, Harrison, Fitzgerald, Boldin, T.O, Housh, Chad Johnson...and quite a few more that I don't want to take the time to list. Top 15 maybe. Top 25 probably. But I'm sure Denver will be chucking the ball around quite a bit this year.

You are being generous. I think Rivers is better too. I also like Mcnabb above Cutler. Then ther is Derek Anderson, Matt Schaub, Marc Bulger and David Garrard that are at least on the same level, if not better than Cuntler. I just don't see what everyone sees in him.

I think he's got potential, but it's a long way off. I don't mean to give him too much credit with this comparison, but he reminds me of a sloppy Brett Favre in a way. Lots of physical ability, and he can rocket a pass in there, but he's overconfident in his abilities sometimes and forces things in too often. If he can ever figure it out, he could be scary, but he's not there right now anyway.

Denver's offense has been pretty good so far in the preseason. I'm forced to watch by my GF so I've seen every game.
The defense hasn't been much to write home about.
If the injury bug raises it's ugly head especially along the offensive line Denver will be in trouble moving the ball. But then you could say that about any team at the moment.
The Chiefs will have trouble moving the ball unless their O line starts jelling. Contingent on having everyone playing together.
Defense will be the strength of the team. I fully expect they will be a top 15 defense and possibly a top 10.
We'll start to find out in 2 weeks.

Agree with each of your points except KC being a top 10 D, that one will require a lot from several rooks, some LBs that are pretty shaky IMO and an awfully old man in the backfield so it looks like a wait and see to me.

I'll be watching with interest to see how the Huskers look this year. Not so much the W/L but is the attitude back?

More than one coach has said Cutler is the real deal. And I just gave you facts. All you say is something about Magic 8 Ball's :spock:

Pittsburgh's Ben Roethlisberger and Dallas' Tony Romo impress with their ability to strike downfield after leaving the pocket.

Cincinnati's Carson Palmer dazzles with his arm strength and his ability to sniff out opposing defenses.

Houston's Matt Schaub has a better feel for the pocket than most, while Jacksonville's David Garrard brings poise and a high football IQ to the quarterback position.

QB RATINGS
Strong Buy: Analysts have a hard time seeing him failing. Reserved for those who possess the physical tools and intangibles to join the very elite.

Buy: Should enjoy a long, productive career with Pro Bowls in his future. Minor limitations separate them from the highest rating.

Hold: Has the potential to take the next step, but it's unclear how high his stock might rise.

Underperform: The jury has returned its verdict, and the news isn't very good.

Sell: Trade him now.

For all their differences, most of the NFL's promising young quarterbacks share a striking similarity in the eyes of scouts and coaches: They can't touch Denver's Jay Cutler for sheer potential.

Asked to evaluate 11 young starters, experts singled out Cutler as the quarterback most likely to reach the elite status currently shared by Tom Brady and Peyton Manning.

"The kid in Denver, to me he is the future of this league," an AFC pro scout said.

"I would jump on that boat," an NFC personnel director said. "He isn't quite there, but you see those flashes of a guy who, once he has the whole playbook in his mind and he's made all the mistakes he needs to make in learning it, man, he's going to be a special player."

ESPN.com granted anonymity to two pro scouts, one personnel director, a defensive coordinator and a defensive backs coach in exchange for unvarnished evaluations.

The experts analyzed starting quarterbacks younger than 30 and with fewer than four seasons of starting experience. San Francisco's Alex Smith and Arizona's Matt Leinart fell from consideration because neither has established himself as a long-term starter.

That left 11 young quarterbacks standing: Roethlisberger, Romo, Palmer, Schaub, Garrard, Cleveland's Derek Anderson, San Diego's Philip Rivers, Tennessee's Vince Young, Washington's Jason Campbell, the New York Giants' Eli Manning and, of course, Cutler.

STRONG BUY

Jay Cutler, Broncos

CUTLER WATCH

Bullish: Exceptionally strong arm, good mobility and accuracy, calm under pressure. Showed toughness in returning quickly from painful leg injury.
Bearish: Like many hard throwers, trusts his arm strength too much at times.
2007 most yards per attempt Player YPA*
Tom Brady 8.60
Tony Romo 8.58
Brett Favre 7.96
Jay Cutler 7.92
Peyton Manning 7.90
*minimum 100 attempts
The second-year pro has completed better than 60 percent of his passes through his first 18 regular-season starts, but the numbers don't begin to explain what separates Cutler from the others.

"I love him," the AFC scout said. "He's athletic, poised, smart, accurate -- and there was just something about that kid coming out, the way he was wired."

The Broncos have had problems surrounding Cutler with a consistent supporting cast. Losing veteran center Tom Nalen was a significant setback. Top receiver Javon Walker has hardly played. Top running back Travis Henry has 34 carries over the last seven games.

Cutler's numbers have suffered as a result, but he's still averaging 7.9 yards per attempt, putting him up there with Brett Favre (7.96) and Peyton Manning (7.9).

"He has an unbelievable career ahead of him," the NFC personnel director said. "He is Romo [in terms of confidence] with the physical tools to match. He's fun to watch because he's kind of like the kid who plays quarterback down at the playground. 'Let's just go play.'"

Cutler, 24, has less experience than the other quarterbacks on our list, leaving more for the imagination. But his poise and physical ability are obvious already.

"He has a cannon of an arm, obviously, and when he's in the pocket, he has the arm strength to make all the throws," an NFC pro scout said. "Throw in the fact that he can move around and buy additional time, and he's got a pretty impressive arsenal in terms of ability and arm strength and feet."

He's got tons of potential. But then so does Croyle. Croyle has flashed some at times when he hasn't been running for his life every other play last season. Cutler has had a pretty consistant oline for the most part since he's been starting. Croyle has been working behind shit except for Waters.
Both have exceptional arm strenght. Cutler has made better decisions with putting the ball in the air. But then he's had more time to make decisions. Croyle had about .002 of a second after the snap before he has to bail out of the called play and keep from getting killed.
The one thing that is a negative for Cutler now since he's been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes is the fact that he will take longer to recover from bumps and bruises that will linger from game to game.

Yea Denvers offense is very young, that is why last year was so huge for us.
We got a lot of guys experience last year and we are a better team this year.

Cutler looks like he will be a top 5 QB this year, and Marshall looks like he will be in the top 5 at his position as well.

Our DE's aren't anything to brag about outside of Dumerville but our starting DT's are pretty good with Marcus Thomas and Dewayne Robertson.At least we will be able to stop the run this year. And having Champ Bailey and Dre Bly back there helps us a lot.

We went 7-9 with 2 rookie undrafted free agent runningbacks getting the bulk of the carries, a first year starter at QB, a first year starter WR, and rookies all over the defensive line. And had injuries all over the offensive line...Matt Lepsis torn ACL, Tom Nalen torn Bicep Muscle, and Ben Hamilton (severe migraines) missed more than 8 games a piece last year. We are returning 2/3 (Nalen is hurt but you know what Weigman can do) and Ryan Clady has not given up a sack against Mario Williams, Demarcus Ware, and Aaron Kampman.

There is no reason why Denver won't win 3 more games than they did last year. They are better.

The past 3 years?

2 seasons ago we were in the AFC Championship game. We drafted a rookie QB and went 7-9.
The Colts went 3-13 the year after they started manning.
The Cowboys went 1-15 when they got Aikman
We are 9-12 with Cutler
Shanahan as kept us afloat. We are "rebuilding" and we still remain competitive.

When you lose players like Rod Smith, Trevor Pryce, Al Wilson it is hard to compete.

Shanahan has had some bad drafts. Sure. But he has also gotten... Reuben Droughns, Mike Anderson, Quentin Griffin, Olandis Gary, Tatum Bell, Clinton Portis, TD all drafted in the 5th round or lower (except for Tatum and Portis 2nd round) to 1,000 yard rushing seasons.

He also had a great draft in 06 with...
Jay Cutler in the first round
Tony Scheffler in the second round
Elvis Dumervil in the third round
Brandon Marshall in the 4th round
Chris Kuper.
All of those guys are starting for us this year and so are the 2 undrafted free agent running backs from that year.

He has had his good and his bad drafts but that 06 Draft bought him 10 years with the Denver Broncos.

He also had a great draft in 06 with...
Jay Cutler in the first round
Tony Scheffler in the second round
Elvis Dumervil in the third round
Brandon Marshall in the 4th round
Chris Kuper.
All of those guys are starting for us this year and so are the 2 undrafted free agent running backs from that year.

He has had his good and his bad drafts but that 06 Draft bought him 10 years with the Denver Broncos.[/QUOTE]

Just because they're starters doesn't mean they're any good.

Shanahan won't be around for 2 years if he has a season like last, which he will again and again as long as hes GM of that team.

Just about every team in this league has good FA running backs. They are not hard to find.

Brandon Marshall is not one of the better WR's in this league.

Does Darrell Jackson still play in this league?

The past 3 years?

2 seasons ago we were in the AFC Championship game. We drafted a rookie QB and went 7-9.
The Colts went 3-13 the year after they started manning.
The Cowboys went 1-15 when they got Aikman
We are 9-12 with Cutler
Shanahan as kept us afloat. We are "rebuilding" and we still remain competitive.

When you lose players like Rod Smith, Trevor Pryce, Al Wilson it is hard to compete.

Shanahan has had some bad drafts. Sure. But he has also gotten... Reuben Droughns, Mike Anderson, Quentin Griffin, Olandis Gary, Tatum Bell, Clinton Portis, TD all drafted in the 5th round or lower (except for Tatum and Portis 2nd round) to 1,000 yard rushing seasons.

He also had a great draft in 06 with...
Jay Cutler in the first round
Tony Scheffler in the second round
Elvis Dumervil in the third round
Brandon Marshall in the 4th round
Chris Kuper.

I would like to have Cutler and Marshall. They are good young players. I think Cutler is much more likely to pan out for Denver than Croyle would for us. Marshall would give us two legitimate starting WR for the first time in forever. And they would both be young.

I'm not that familiar with Dumverile, but it wouldn't take much for him to be the best pass rusher on this team.

Yeah, shit receivers are 5th in the league in receptions and 6th in yardage in their 2nd seasons. I'd even concede that an argument can be made he's not a Top 10 receiver since he's only done it for one season, but to claim he's not one of the better receivers in the league is laughable.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of the Broncos' young DL breaks out, but it's unreasonable to expectere more than that. DJ Williams was a solid WLB a few years ago, but even if we assume he's a keeper I still have a MAJOR question about the MLB position. Seriously, I am lost for words that the Broncos did nothing more than they did to upgrade this position. One of the reasons for the Broncos getting about 10 wins in the years after Elway was Al Wilson. I want the Chiefs to upgrade the MLB position quite badly because it's so important to have a Wilson-type leader on your defense; I can't imagine what Broncos fans feel. At least the honest ones. And lastly I have major questions about the safety position. As we tell the Raiders, you CAN'T build from the back forwards. I think the Broncos have done a better job than the Raiders by drafting the likes of Moss and Crowder, but they actually need to do something.

Just because I'm a Chiefs fan, and I generally root against the success of the Broncos, I'm not some sort of fool/tool. The Chiefs have no relevance to any post I make about the Broncos. Yes, they suck; and yes, they have no QB (yet). You won't see me try to say otherwise.

IMHO D-line remains the biggest question/unsolved problem for the Broncos. Dumervil continues to impress but seems to lack the size to be more than a situational DE. Shanny has gone from the failed efforts at concentrating on over-the-hill free agents and started to grow his own through the draft.
We have yet to see how that pans out.

IMHO The LB corp is another question mark that could go either way. Williams returns to his natural position where he is a very strong player. It is said the Koutovedes would have been a starter at Mike in Seattle if he hadn't been lined up behind a pro-bowler. Who knows?
Boss Bailey doesn't need to carry the LB corps but he does need to carry his weight. Again, we'll see.

Abdulah is an NFL-caliber Safety. Lynch is old and will platoon this year. Safety is not as critical a part on the Denver D as line/LB/DB, I'm not worried about it.

Again IMHO Special Teams needs to be special this year for Denver to get to the playoffs. ST is where you win/lose 1-2 games/year and that can make all the difference.

I still don't get how people don't see that Jay Cutler has all of the tools to be an all pro QB. Jay's health is the only thing which could hold him back. Not like this is saying much, but he was far superior to any AFC West QB last year, in my opinion. Had a much better QB rating than Rivers, despite a large gap in overall talent on that side of the FB. Denver had a rough year last year. Injuries to Nalen, Hamilton, Walker, Henry, Scheffler affected offensive chemistry. We know about the deaths of Williams and Nash which had an overall affect on the team. I predict 9-7. The Oline has to remain healthy for us to sniff that record however. I doubt that Nalen is far superior to Wiegmann, so I don't think that there will be a major drop off there, I do expect Clady to play better than Lepsis did last year. Hamilton is healthy which is a plus. We have a FB in Hillis that can block and rush the football. We don't seem to need top tier RB's, but if we had one, we could be special. Marshall has all of the physical tools (lacks the mental capacity at times) to be an elite WR, from a FF perspective, he does have top 5 potential. The D will still suck.

In all honesty, I don't think either team is going to be good this year. The Broncos may be a little better, but what do you get for winning 7 games instead of 5? A worse draft pick.

I do think, however, that Denver has a lot more good young pieces in place, and therefore is on track to get a lot better. I don't see that in the Chiefs. They would really need something unexpected happening (namely, Croyle turning into a stud) to turn into something special. Not that it's guaranteed, of course, that Cutler will turn into a pro-bowler, but any objective person (like the scouts talking about Cutler in the earlier post) would have to say the odds are better with Cutler.

I wouldn't say that is exactly true. You guys have a star in the making at WR in Bowe. Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm sure as you know already, your QB situation isn't the best. The fact that Bowe put up those numbers as a rookie last year, under those circumstances was pretty impressive. You guys just had a draft that many people were raving about. Give Dorsey and Albert some time. I thought the Cottam, Flowers and Charles picks were also very solid. Hopefully the rookies will play a lot and give you guys optimism for the future.

I'm calling your bluff. GOQUEER was sure pimping McIntosh when KC first signed him.

McIntosh was nothing more than a band aid solution...The day we cut his fatass is the day this team takes a positive step forward!

With the perspective of Week 1 there is some real genius showing through on this thread. OTOH it is only Week 1, there are 15 more to go.

To all you Broncos fans, I know we're mortal enemies and all, but we need your help. We need you to help us break free of the Carl/Herm dictatorship. We may have our differences, but we're all human beings, and what is happening in Kansas City is simply inhumane. You have a moral obligation to help get them fired.

Please.

We're begging you.

We'd love to help but you have to help yourselves. In a couple weeks your team will rise up and play their best game of the year against Denver, giving just enough glimmer of hope that Hot Carl and Hermaphrodite will live another year.

i expect 60 hung on us by the donks, probably with marshall having 27 catches for 310 yards...

last year i went to the 41-whatever thumping of the chiefs at invesco (nice stadium) had a great time even tho it sucked losing, but the fans were pretty cool to us

The good news is when we play you guys our ST and defense is good for three touchdowns. We'll make your offense look normal! The game might even be exciting!

Seriously though, Carl and Herm are full of fail. I don't understand why Bowe is having a Sophomore slump but I can assure you he will bounce back. He's too good. You need help on the offensive line and at QB. You also need help in rushing the passer. You fix those things and it will look like a different team.

The title of this thread is funny, though. lol

Brandon Marshall could be up there. Last year was his first year starting and he was 5th in receptions, 6th in yards, and led all WR's in Yards after the catch.

He might not be right now but by the end of the season there will be no question that Marshall is an elite WR.

It really doesn't sound so dumb right now.

C'mon everybody the season is about to get started lets just have a good ol' Donkey-pile pile-on thread.

Good luck with Wiegmann blocking up front. ROFL

Good luck with Ryan Clady gettin pwned every week. ROFL

Good luck with SELVIN YOUNG as your starting RB. ROFL

Who do they have after Young? Andre Hall. ROFL

#1 WR Brandon Marshall ROFL #2 D-JAX ROFL Is that guy still in the league?

Jay Cutler: "Nice to meet you, I mean you kinda suck but my dad says that you might be good someday ..." ROFL

Shanarat has seriously lost his marbles. ROFL

Wow, this might be the worst display of football knowledge all year outside of GOQUEER's.

Denver 7-9
Chiefs 5-11

You're going to do better than us...but big *****in deal.

Denver's record won't even be good enough if they were in the NFC...

Kind of hard for me to pile on Denver when we are going to be one of the worst teams in the NFL this year. lol

Cutler a Top 5 QB?

Marshall a Top 5 WR?

Dear God, man. You are the ultimate homer.

Denver will not stay within two TDs of the Chargers. The Eggos are just far too physical for a soft team such as the Broncos.

Denver is becoming the Chiefs of the Vermeil era. The offense is really looking potent, although a legit RB would put them over the top. But the defense looks worse every time I see it. Absolute abortion of a front seven.

The question is which team are they -- the 2003 edition with a defense that gives up yards and points but makes some key plays, or perhaps the 2004 edition which stopped teams fewer times than it scored on them?

Based on what I've seen they're an 8-8 team with a dynamite QB and a dominant WR, albeit a knucklehead. They don't have the backfield or WR depth to completely dominate on offense every single game which would overcome a terrible defense. Oh, they'll gain some yards on the ground, but a lot of cheap shit that amounts to nothing, just like last year. They really need a Clinton Portis type who can actually find the endzone and draw a defender's attention to the RB, not just staying on staying on their feet.

Heh.
