    They did report it, he was on injury report for a thigh injury. That came out middle of the week.

    Did you do that to him?
    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    If I did, I wouldn't admit it.

    I wouldn’t say it’s been low. He’s played a lot of snaps. I think the percentage of snaps has been lower, but the the defense has been on the field A LOT.

    It's been barely over 60% of the defensive snaps all year. He's normally mid-80's.

    It's absolutely been low this year.

    And again, how many snaps is he playing? Is it 30 per game?

    Why are the CB’s playing so timid this season? Off-man is not their strong suit.

    To this untrained eye the Broncos are no longer running Wade Phillips defense and this DC is anything but “a rising star”.

    Draft
    1st round— Cooper Dejean CB
    2nd round— Jack Sawyer OLB
    3rd round— Will Shipley RB

    6th round— Cash Jones RB
    7th round— Carson Steele RB

    Chris Harris is the only known commodity. What are the rest of the their strengths?

    Default In Von Miller's world, fixing the Broncos' defensive troubles is simple

    ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Take a trip to Von Miller’s world.

    When you’re in Miller’s world — call it Planet 58? — it’s not difficult to find a way to stop the Broncos’ losing streak.

    In Miller’s eyes, he’s been the problem over the last three weeks.

    And he’s also the way to fix it.

    “I just got to run over my guy,” Miller said. “I just got to run straight through him, put him on his back and just get a sack. It’s not like I’m a receiver. It’s not like I’ve got to break at this route and catch the ball. I’ve just got to get there. I’ve just got to get there. It’s something that I haven’t been doing well over the last couple of weeks. I haven’t been playing the run well, I haven’t been rushing the passer well over the last couple of weeks. I can fix that. I like living in a world where it’s me and the problem is me, because the quickest way to fix it is me. That’s the type of world that I live in, and that’s [how] I’m going into the game. I’m going into the game trying to fix those issues.”

    Thanks jaded I've been saying that since Week 1. This has never been a strong off Man team. And I've never liked off man anyways. If you're going to play man you need to be physical and get up in their faces and attack the line of scrimmage. I honestly believe that's a big part of the reason that Roby has struggled this year. I don't think he's as bad as we all think he is. He may not be Harris and may not be talib but he could be a starting level cornerback in the league if you let him play to his strength which is Big physical and athletic

    The scheme isn't helping him, but the missed tackles and just getting dismantled game after game is just frustrating. He's certainly not the coverage stud that we had hoped for, either. I won't lie, while he certainly isn't above being called out by coaches, being called out by someone as stupid as VJ has to be infuriating.
