I also agree that it will be a tough year. Maybe I'll sound pessimistic but I think 7-9 or 8-8 is very likely. I'm not going into the reason's why because I think they've all been discussed here. O-line and D-line/front 7 would be where I would start though. I think we're on the right track however and I have a bright outlook on the future. Hope I'm wrong in my predictions and I'm still excited to see the team progress. BTW Coop: Some season ticket holders have been selected to receive devices that can be used in the stadium that will show replays and give instant info on games around the league. That may help the 'live game' experience a little. GO BRONCOS!!!! The South Stands Forever!!! The Orange Crush Lives!! Coop I agree with the realists take on things.

I have just been called a realist here of late and that's the only way I know how to be, so I don't ever get too low or too high, good for the ticker, and yeah my expectations for this year aren't too high either, I said 9-7 back in May, but I would gladly take 8-8 now with the injury bug. The Keys, one of my favorite place, I have a buddy who will go down to Marathon for a couple weeks labor day in his 53 foot cruiser, now that's the life....

O.K. O.K. I did say I was a homer and I did ask for feedback. I won't use the we have injuries excuse toooooo :o) much but we we're a little short handed and I'd rather save the fellas for the season that play them against the Lions...HONEST. I don't have extremely high expectations this year. You guys know I'm a realist and here to give you a old players perspective where I can and not sugar-coat it. The preseason is the only time you get to move a few folks around to see what they can do, so I understand the O-line dillema right now and I'm O.K. with that. BUT really...stats in the preseason...come on. I don't count preseason. We have a lot of weaknesses and we have very little to no depth, so it could be a long year. Royalbroncofan1's right about a live game though...very very tough to watch. I like it better on TV. Even though they replay almost every play still tough to watch from a distance and I was on the 4th level , then moved down to the 2nd level and it was still tough looking from the end zone area. Steelers up next so it will be a good game to watch. I'll buzz my buddy Gary Dunn in the Keys and get his take from their side and let you know what he says.

the Wrs have looked good but i agree with the other person that it still seems they are over looking royal, and as for willis he does something stokley doesnt and thats play ST

I said he has impressed in practice but not "so much" in game. As in not lived up the his practice potential which based on reports was really high. I Only watched the first game and missed the second game, everything but highlights so i dont know about this presence of mind u speak of. My point was that Maniac left out out Brandon Lloyd who is on the first team. And while stokely is old, age is the only thing willis has on stokely in my book (who also had the presence of mind last year to walk the sidelines and burn time). We have Cox for returns, and Royal will still be returning whether we like it or not. Vaughn hasnt done too bad either. Thats just my take, hate it or love it. TRB out...

His two catches across the middle on the last drive of the game where he had the presence of mind to run across the whole field to get out of bounds both times showed great awareness and he caught many balls in these two games, I think he is playing real well and he is a return man also, now that McKinley is out we need to keep Willis for sure, unfortunately that means Stokley out.

He pretty much has his spot on luck. He is already on the first team and everything. Willis has impressed in practice but not so much in game. And stokely might sadly be the odd man out. Even had limited grabs last year. But with the way Bay Bay and Decker have gotten hurt, we might just keep 7 lol Thomas u forgot Brandon Lloyd. He pretty much has his spot on luck.

In that case, I'd say Thomas, Decker, Royal, Gaffney, Willis, and Stokley. Especially since McKinley is on IR.
