Thread: Broncos Gameday Thread: Broncos vs Texans 12/08/19

Still ... pretty sad that Denver has to chip for both T’s.

He gave him a game ball. He doesn't need to tickle his balls from the podium.

Yeah, because a vocalized support publicly is the same thing as that. No. Just. No.

Correct. The game ball matters and the public support doesn't

I'm not going to ignore something I've noticed time and time again over the years I've followed the game.

Thoughts on this anecdote about the evil empire?

“A crazy thing I saw, one day we were at practice … and the defense is crushing us. Like we can’t complete no passes. You know, sometimes they do the install and it’s just the right install,” Bennett said on Wednesday during an appearing on FS1. “So we come into the meeting and Bill always has the bad plays of the day and he’s just like calling out Tom. You know, like, ‘We have quarterbacks that can’t make throws.’ I’m like, ‘This is Tom Brady. He can make all the throws.’ And I’ve never seen coaches really call out the quarterbacks in group meetings.

“I sit right behind Tom because I’m the quarterback whisperer. I like to whisper in their ear when I see things. So after that meeting, I go to finish my workout or whatever and Tom is in there doing drop-backs. He’s just throwing drop-backs. He’s pissed off.”

Brady had an epic response — though he didn’t have to say a word. He let his play do the talking.

“The next day, we go 33-for-33 or something like that at practice,” Bennett said. “And from then on, I was just like, ‘Oh, we’re gonna be great.’ I’ve never seen anyone that didn’t shut down. He was like, ‘All right, I’m gonna show you tomorrow.’ He just picked them apart.”

I've even seen the Sith Lord take up for the QB, even back in the day before Brady was Brady. Look, I'm in the minority here. I get it.

Vic Fangio - He is a totally shit QB, so that's cool. I guess?

I know, only I am annoyed.

No, the Broncos staff have been promoting Joe Flacco and shitting on Lock the entire season.

First they were eager to put him on IR because they had no plans to play him at all this season.

Then they wanted to keep him on IR and not activate him because they were still committed to the imbecilic "win now!" plan with Joe Flacco, because Joe is "in his prime."

Then they had no plan to even let Lock practice because they desperately wanted to AVOID having to start him, which would signal the end to the imbecilic Flacco plan.

Then having left him on IR while the losses piled up, they tried to go to worthless afterthought scrub Brandon Allen because "he gives us the best chance to win now" (in a losing season with no chance of making the playoffs and no chance of winning IN the playoffs even if by some miracle they had got there and no hope for the future.)

But, it would be easy if Brandon Allen were Trevor Siemian to GO BACK to Flacco as soon as he became healthy next year, whereas now there would be a fan and media riot if they tried to sit Lock.

Then when they finally inevitably hit 8 losses they reluctantly agree to start Drew Lock.

He's spectacular and produces the kind of QB play we haven't seen in Denver in 20 years.

And this is the Fangio reaction: "

Andrew Mason @MaseDenver 29m
Fangio, on Lock: “He’s done well for two games. That’s about all it is"

That might be the stupidest ******* thing I have heard out of Dove Valley in years, and that is saying something!

It's stupid on a level that makes me question whether Fangio is just sour grapes, or if he's still acting on Elway's instructions?
