Thread: Winners and Losers from Preseason Game #1 vs. the Atlanta Falcons

I was a bit disappointed in the drops Fant had. We need him to be a target in the redzone and catching them.

Relax. Last night was Drew Lock's very first NFL game. Give him some time to shake off the rust and shine.

Lock needs some time to jell.

Fant was made out to be another Graham or Thomas. You dont get on the field at iowa if you wont block. And Hockenson is one of the best blocking tight ends ive ver seen. So if ive got an uber athletic guy like fant and a great blocker like Hock why reinvent the wheel.

I think he was playing possum last night. He's going to lull Flacco into a false sense of security then pounce.

Lock became the biggest loser the second Case Rypien ragarmed the game winning lame duck TD pass straight to the Falcons CB.

Dude is so ******.

Rypien did just about all you can do there. No one is going to be open when it's 4th and 15 in the redzone, best you can do is find a one on one matchup, throw it up, and hope your guy makes a play, which is what happened.

The point is that’s the beginning of the end for Lock in Denver, Broncos fans love nothing more than they love talentless underdogs.

I give it maybe two seasons, before Lock gone and replaced by a draft pick that fans will say the Broncos didn’t need.

I bet you were thinking Rypien should be elevated to #2 after that drive, be honest?

Not whatsoever. I had low expectations with all the new staff, OC, too many young players.

At least we both agree that Rypien lived up to those low expectations.

Jaded. Jesus man. Theres 4 more games. This was the exhibition to the exhibition. Who expected either of the rookies to be Elway in his prime.
