Thread: End of era may be nearing in Denver

End of era may be nearing in Denver

Champ Bailey may be entering his final week with the Denver Broncos and the future Hall of Fame cornerback already may have played his final game with the organization.

Whether he’s on the field or on the sideline against visiting San Diego on Sunday, Denver fans should enjoy Bailey. His seven-season stint with the team may be coming to an end. Bailey aggravated a heel injury Sunday against Houston. Interim Denver coach Eric Studesville said Monday that Bailey will be evaluated throughout the week. I could see a scenario where Bailey is rested to avoid further damage the injury.

I just hope he goes to a team that can give him the opportunity to win a championship. He deserves it. I also do hope he just rests. He's taken a beating for this organization.

I think it would be foolish for him to play this coming Sunday. Why risk it? YOu are going to be UFA. Why take a chance on a fluke injury for a meaningless game that could literally cost you millions of dollars?

Couldn't agree more, of the Broncos we've had on the roster within the last decade, he is the most deserving of any to get a ring. I would love for him to return, but if not...I hope he ends up on a team that has a real shot to win a championship.

wow. seven years with the organization. time flies.

Yea id does. I remember his 1st game as a Bronco against the Chiefs, and that same day watching Portis break off a 64 yard TD run vs the Bucs. Damn, hard to believe its been that long. Crazy how fast it flies by.

I don't remember all of that, I was still in diapers, but time sure does fly

Wow, I thought he'd been here longer. I really don't want to see him go, but that's the world of free agency. If he does, I'll wish him luck wherever he ends up. I would bet on the Patriots.

bailey, whatever happens.

I bet Claymore is happy.

I would certainly pay him before Lloyd. Let Champ play some more DB and then move him to safety and let him finish his career in Denver.

@ in diapers. smh


And yea, I'm too scared to pay Lloyd. I just feel like, if we give him the money, he will lose focus and won't be as good. Hope I'm wrong. Would like to see both of them here for a while tho.

well bj, if we can get by without paying Lloyd, I would be all for it.
