It's time...
In my second season in the NFL I was starting for my hometown team, the Denver Broncos, and I did not play good football. To make matters worse, the coach who believed in me, Mike Shanahan, had been fired and his replacement, Josh McDaniels, made it clear I was starting only because he had no one else. Not because he believed in me.
One bad performance turned into two, two into three, three turned into a player on the field that didn’t believe he belonged there. My coaches had lost faith in me, and instead of picking me up when I was down they kicked me. My confidence was shattered and, by the next training camp, I was released.
At the time it was devastating. In hindsight, it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
I started over with the Seahawks. My coaches wanted me, believed in me and encouraged me. They reshaped my game and turned me into a player that, including the playoffs, would start 60-some games over an eight-year career and win a Super Bowl. Had I not been cut by Denver and given a fresh start in Seattle I’m not sure I would have even continued playing football. That’s how little confidence I had and how miserable I was at my work environment.
Actually it was Polumbus who immediately helped solidify the OLine in 2015 in his return. The already crippled offense never would have crawled down the stretch. Oddly enough he returned where it all started and won there. His story is interesting.

Well so far it has ben best for lynch to get demoted, he definitely earned it.
The last few day's have been great day's for him after being demoted. Long ways to go for him though, if he sucks Saturday it was all for nothing.
Paxton has always played well in shorts/7 on 7. You have to take that with a grain of salt.
Exactly. I don't understand that Paxton throwing well to the 3's the last couple days is a verification of anything. Especially since VJ himself said he wasn't happy with our 2nd team defense because partly the depth at S, and CB. That essentially means that he is throwing well against a depleted secondary on the third string LMAO, cause that ain't anything good in my book.
