		<description>Mark, great inside stories about &quot;the drive&quot; game. I was 32 back then and as big an Elway fan as any, always took his side over Reeves, ahahah. That game will always in my mind be the geatest Bronco game I have ever seen even if I had to watch it on TV which  makes me realize from your post I never truly knew how cold it really was as you said. The greatest Bronco game I&#039;ve seen that I attended was &quot;the fumble&quot; were I was lucky enough to get me and my step son a couple seats 10th row up, 5 yrd line, opposite end zone of the fumble, and funny thing, the whole game was so intense, I know it was cold (obviously, January), but I don&#039;t remember that at all. Other than the game itself, I mainly recall the chant &quot;superbowl, superbowl...&quot; at the end of the game that went on for what seemed like an hour, no one was leaving their seats. It was crazy and unfortunately I know I will never experience that atmosphere at a Bronco game ever again. I am just blessed that I got to witness the best Bronco home game ever. Just my opinion. Thanks Mark for the memories. Won&#039;t be able to attend the Interlocken thing, I live near Austin now. Would love to be able to be there and see some of my greatest sports idols from our past Broncos, not to mention  get their autographs, at 55, I admit it, I am still a  Bronco football junkie.
BRONCOS FOREVER!</description>

		<description>Patience grasshoppers, Marshall will get in the groove much like Moss on what we hope will be the Patriots west.  Kind of funny we are all thinking that.

I agree with a number of you in that I&#039;d like to see Hillis nd Shef and even Buckhalter.

What&#039;s fun is you guys/gals get it and it&#039;s fun to get your perspective.  It does take a few weeks to get it but it also takes a few weeks for Defenses to get it from the standpoint of tracking offenses and their tendencies so we&#039;ll have to make the adjustments their too.

Hey!!  I had to laugh, when, mad_orange_devil_27 said above &quot;and yes, Jay “Cry Baby” Cutler.  Nobody called him out or went after him like they did me when I made a similar crack at a Roast downtown for The Greek last year???  Huh? :o)  Do you all remember that?  Goes to show you how fast folks forget, but at the time it was such a big deal and that&#039;s what you do at a Roast. Pretty fuuunnnyyyy.

Call it like you see it and he may 0-2 this week?  

O.K. Sportsfans...I know this is about the Broncos BUT&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;.The U is back if you saw the Miami-Georgia Tech game last might!!  Not all the way.....but possibly top 10 or top 5 if they can beat Virginia Tech and Oklahoma in the next two weeks.

Cleveland this week...brings back memories of the DRIVE and the Fumble.  The Drive was an incredible experience. Coldddddd game, getting hit with dog bones and batteries and food the entire game.  Couple funny stories:

1st: They told us to keep or helmets on while on the sidelines because so many things were being thrown.  So, I&#039;m standing at about the 50 between series and I take my helmet off thinking there&#039;s no way anyone can reach this far because the sidelines are so far away from the bleachers because it&#039;s a old baseball stadium and we&#039;re on the far side away from the stands. Boom I get an apple in the cheek and at first I was pissed, then I thought &quot;Damn that guy has a arm&quot; and laughed and put my helmet back on for the rest of the game. :o)

2nd story, it&#039;s a TV timeout and we&#039;re in the dog pound-end zone, everyone in the huddle kinda has there heads down as we&#039;re getting pounded with dog bones, batteries, you name it, bouncing of our helmets hitting us in the backs, etc.  So I casually walk over to the ref and said,&quot;Hey ref, when you going to call a penalty on these idiots throwing stuff at us, look at the field it&#039;s littered with crap.  The ref calming looks at me and says, &quot;Cooper go get back in the huddle&quot;  I say, &quot;aren&#039;t you going to call anything?&quot;  He smiles and says, &quot;do you really think it will help or do you think they&#039;ll throw more stuff&quot;.  I looked at him, nodded, smiled and said, &quot;good point&quot; and walked back to the huddle, thinking he was probably right in that these people were so crazy and a penalty would probably make things worse.

It&#039;s Alumni Weekend this weekend so you should see a lot of the former players around the stadium and in the stands this weekend.  There&#039;s a golf tournament Saturday at Interlocken in case you want to stop by and see some your old time favorites, get some autographs and before the game there will be an introduction of many if your going to the game.  I&#039;m taking one of my little guys this week so say hi if you get a chance.

		<description>Torain ATV fan and shawn723 normally I would say you are correct about a number 1 receiver getting more looks or who gets the most but check this quote from Coach McD:

&quot;That creates turnovers,&quot; McDaniels said. &quot;Defenses would love that if you would force the ball to one guy 10 or 12 times every game. They are double teaming him, and you are still throwing it to him. You are stacking the line of scrimmage on defense, and we are still running it. I don&#039;t think you can play good football consistently trying to do it that way.&quot;

I totally agree with this philosophy. I think this might leave us (and opposing teams) wondering who the playmaker of the day is going to be every Sunday. Did anyone suspect Daniel Graham would be involved in the passing attack against Cincy? Who will it be against Cleveland? 

I&#039;m ready for the home opener. Ready to Rock the South stands. LET&#039;S GET LOUD!!!

GO BRONCOS!!!! South Stands Forever!!! The Orange Crush Lives!!</description>

		<description>Denver looked good in my oppinion (except the misseed passes). With the passes caught, there are five or six more first downs and an entirely different game altogether. The defense rocked at the right moments (except for the end). I was very impressed with out defense. Lets not forget what type of offense Denver was up against. The receivers just need to relax and catch the ball and we will be very competitive against any team in this league.</description>

		<description>I hope the Broncos&#039; offense gels quickly. I&#039;ll take the win although I know areas where improvement is expedient. Still, we&#039;re farther along the learning curve than many of the experts think. It&#039;s time to lay a beatdown on the Browns. Thanks, Coop!</description>

		<description>Well I think one of the bigger reasons the offense was somewhat stagnant on Sunday was the suspension of Brandon Marshall.  He was almost a non-factor due to a combination of his lack of recent practice time, his resulting lack of familiarity with McD&#039;s new offense, and finally the resulting lack of chemistry with Kyle Orton.  I feel like this week it will be really important to get him on track, because it wasn&#039;t long ago that Marshall and Royal and pretty much every other pass catcher tore up the Browns defense for 447 yards.  Granted, we don&#039;t have Cutler this time, but Marshall and Royal made a whipping boy out of the Browns starting right CB, McDonald; Eddie with a career long 91 yard TD reception and Marshall with the game winning TD catch late in the game.  I&#039;d look to pick on him some more this weekend.

But I also agree: pounding the rock with Buckhalter, Hillis, and Moreno would be the way to go.  Honestly, I think Denver&#039;s stable of RB&#039;s could be as successful as the Giants of recent years, when they had Brandon Jacobs, Derrick Ward, and Ahmad Bradshaw.

Whatever the case, Denver&#039;s offense had better gel quickly this year, because they&#039;re playing against the cream of the AFC in the Steelers, the Patriots, the Colts, and the Ravens.  Not to mention the favored Chargers, revamped Raiders, and tough-nosed Chiefs.  I have to agree with you about the Raiders--in fact, I think both cellar dwellers in the AFC West have made significant strides based on their performances this past weekend.  Especially those Raiders.  If Russel were more accurate, I have no doubt they would have shocked the Chargers on Monday night.</description>

		<description>i just wanted to add, i dont think simms ankle was 100% and orton wasnt taking any chances what so ever. the finger wasnt good and orton couldnt throw with the glove, the way orton slid, and dumped the ball makes me think that simms wasnt ready and we wernt going to risk anything. other then that i am looking for a run game coop, thats going to be the key if WE have sucsess...</description>

		<description>Just when I think we have it bad at QB I watch Jamarcus Russel play and realize we could have it worse lol. I think he key to our Victory next week is to dominate the run like vikings did. Sure we dont have an Adrian Peterson but we have 3 skilled backs that when combined make up Peterson lol. Morenos Burst and Vision, Buckhalters experience, and Hillis toughness. 

Yea we will definitely take a win anyway we can. Like I said before the first game of the season, the team that wins isnt always the best team on paper but the team with a whole lotta Heart, Intensity and doing the right things at the right time. Cutler used to do too much (cuz thats how he is and we didnt have RBs) and Orton IMO does too little, We just need to find that middle ground at QB something that will come with time and chemistry. Chemistry not only improves performance but makes you more confident and less nervous.

THE SEASON IS OURS FOR THE TAKING
GO BRONCOS!!!</description>
