And Im not sure were seeing the same O-line, guess we will see come regular season, I still think McDaniels and Orton are mistakes, mabye they can prove me wrong, but so far all I've seen since they canned Shanahan is McDaniels trading away all our good players and hes not even getting anything decent in return for them. I love how the O and Blue news is spinning the last two games like we really looked good...

My favorite quote from orange and blue this week: ("Saturday's 27-13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks wasn't the desired outcome, but the team showed plenty of spark on both sides of the ball. Most importantly, there was improvement in all three phases from last week's game."), are you friggin kidding me, was I watching the wrong game....
The Seahawks game wasn't pretty, but it wasn't as bad as the 9ers game. I think improvements were made, but still some kinks need to be ironed out. The vets on the team are buying into "kid McD" which is good. I just don't have anything that convinces me Shanny would have changed a whole lot this off-season. I know how everyone feels about rumors, but I heard one reason he was fired was because he refused to get rid of Slowik as D-coordinator. One player was quoted basically saying Slowik had them play like p***ies. I think Shanny also had way too much power. He was basically 2nd to Bowlen.

Ok there is some definate truth in what you say, but I'm just not sure that we got a good deal for Cutler, think we could have got more, and I'm wondering why some of our Vets wanted to jump ship when Kiddy McD came on board, I guess time will tell.

I just hope that the norm doesn't hold true this season. Seattle does great during the pre-season and then has a so so regular season, I know last season sucked, followed by a wild card loss to end the season.

Hmmmm its halftime, I wonder do you still think Baby MCD made a good trade, or did he kill our team, eh? I highly doubt that Orton is gonna impress anyone in the second half....assuming he even comes back in, so what we are on our 3rd string now. If we fire MCDaniels early enough, like now, we can at least turn this season into a rebuilding year with a decent head coach, so next year we wont be the laughingstock we are now....

As long as the pass rush got there, he couldn't do much. We were getting to him and at least knocking him down. Right before the half, the rush was backed off quite a bit. Anybody could have completed passes with 10 seconds to throw.

Saw an article that said he should be ready by Week 1, not a break.

While I'm sure any Broncos fan will take a win anway we can get it, I still think winning that way was shear luck...
