And true, it's the 'win' he's about vs. his personal stats. As usual, no televised Bronco game SUnday in Arkansas. But I was able to catch the game live at a friend's that has the NFL ticket. (So I didn't get to follow your game blog) Thx for keeping us updated! Hey Andrew:

I guess my point was more angled at Plummer and his receivers. I think the QB/WR/TE conenction is highly reliant on timing. Defensively, the results don't lie, and those guys were ready, but Jake seems to be a guy that needs a lot of reps to be sharp. Appreciate the response! And L.T. did look pretty sweet!

LaDainian Tomlinson looked pretty good Monday night and he didn't play at all in the preseason, so while it's an intriguing theory, there's probably no connection. But the weeks to come will determine the true result of whether the team's preseason plan was a success or not.

I'd be curious to to know your take, or if you could ask the question and get someone's take on the Training camp/pre-season regimen that Shanahan enlists, and if that could be a cause for the slow starts two years in a row. We know he give the vets off 1 of the two practices during training camp, and his starters play very little in the pre-season, and more importantly, not at all the 4th game. They didn't look very good against the Texans, then sat out the game in Arizona. Several of the top-tier teams had similar struggles(Seattle) while a team like Pittsburgh, who'se backup QB got most of the reps, then was forced into action, plpayed very well. I don't know, just a theory, but one worth investigating I think.... TSG www.milehighreport.com Tough one to swallow.
