I still wish we’d drafted Charles Scott. Or that we still had Hillis. Maybe by now he’d be out of the doghouse.

Hopefully both Buck and Moreno will be back soon.

Anyhow, from what KFS says on the pm practice blog, Moreno should be out only three weeks and Bucky one, that’s excellent news, now if they can only stay healthy after that, I don’t know, I don’t feel good about it, I don’t buy it, we need help, Tebow will only be in in special situations, we still need some tough talented big dude to last the season carrying the majority of the load and I just don’t see that we got it, I see a lot of uncertainty at the position and it’s a tough thing to have because we are nowhere set up for the air game with the new/hurt O line and the QQ, just my opinion. Time will tell if McD is really a genius about this RB thing or if he just missed the boat, you make a good argument but you are not convincing me, hopefully McD will. This is freaking me out, LOL.

I recall your request for a big back Bay. But he did answer my “WEAPONS”. Maybe, McGenius sees in what he has at the RB position to feel comfortable and not feel the need. Remember the big back is TEBOW. Tebow will be the answer in short yardage. But being conventional, we would need a big back but we are not conventional. We are in the shotgun and not under center. Thats why Tebow was perfect QB for us. He ran the spread offense in college for years better than everyone did. If we need a back its one who can chip the DE or pick up the inside blitz. The back in this system needs to be more like P Harvin. Know I understand the need for a big back but thats who Tebow was for Florida and we run that Florida offense or as close to it as a NFL team can.

Go Broncos!!!

McGenius in many things he did, like rebuilding the D line in free agency and rebuilding the O line in the draft, probably has a shot at being a genius doing all that trading around in the draft to get Tebow, but Genius he was not when he totally ignored the RB position this off season, BIG MISTAKE, not any clearer than today. And I’m allowed to say that because I asked for not one but two power backs in either free agency or the draft ever since the end of last year since I never thought the combo of Bucky and Moreno was durable enough to get the job done in this system. I am excited about so many things this year but this is not one of them and considering the O line is my biggest concern, if we don’t address this running game thing pronto, we are looking at a real challenge for whoever will be QB, just saying.

And then we all woke up and realized we better bring in some reinforcement to the rescue, LOL. However very catchy your approach, totally looking for the best in the worst type of situation with what we got, I respect that, but it is now obvious that regardless of how many hidden gems we have we need more and better bodies, McD will come through, he will bring some players in, there is no choice in my opinion, in 2008 we went through 7 RB’s and when he came here last year and picked Moreno as his first round pick, he explained it as you can never have too many RB’s in the NFL nowadays. I don’t know what the heck happened to that philosophy, because he sure dropped the ball about the RB’s this year….

I’m happy we are on the way.
Hope the best for RB1 and RB2 and a quick recovery. This is the opportunity every player in the NFL wants, A CHANCE…..
RB3, RB4 and RB5 the stage is yours. If any of them are worth the uniform they wear, they better step up and never look back.

Whomever it is hope they have the ability to break tackles. I hope they have breakaway speed( better than 4.6). Hope they can pass protect and catch the ball. I’m excited to see a back get this chance.

I hope we see someone who McGenius will never take off the field. A player who takes this CHANCE and actually does something GREAT with it.

Go Broncos!!!

Why isn’t there a link to see the older comments posted? Excited for the upcoming season but the running back injuries are terrible. I sincerely hope they are not serious. If not, we better have a “diamond in the rough” amongst the other six running backs.
