Um, why?
aha,, because our starters were all done by 17-0…
oh maan! 22 more cuts?? always the toughest part before a season.
Oh heck yes, go get Gaffney. Bubba is not holding onto the ball. He`s fast but has the dropsy`s, not good for any WR.
I like Gaffney fine but it’s probably too late for Free Agent WR’s for the Broncos. With Manning at QB, the learning curve for receivers is pretty steep and it would take him weeks to get up to speed. Unless he has played with PFM before, I would think we’ll stick with the guys we have.
Mike, initially, the sentence read “San Francisco ultimately ended up with a 20-24 victory.” But I guess Stuart fixed it without mentioning anything.
Heard a rumor that we may not keep a fullback – Manning is not a Tebow – I think we need some power running in the red zone – and it sure ain’t Moreno. How bout Gronkowski or ?
