Well, your badger is always welcome there in Wisconsin. It's the one place where having a pet badger that eats the neighbors' dogs would probably make you a lot more popular!

All you'd have to say is "Go Badgers!" And they'd have to say "Damn. I have to say you gotta point; 'Hell yeah, go Badgers!'"

Gordon is still a bum, told you it was a trash pickup, now he has a 3 game suspension coming, luckily we can cut him, cause Lindsay already showing who the better runner is.....

2 games, probably next season.

MGIII is still the better RB, those are canyons Lindsay is running through.

Yeah they are and its funny that Melvin's vision is so much worse then Lindsay. Lindsay runs north and south through said canyons, while Gordon ignores said canyons and bounces outside for 2-3 yd gains.....If Lindsay has the vision he had yesterday Gordon is going to get relegated to less touches, just watch. Lindsay has elite vision and burst but is injury prone and isn't a great receiving threat. Gordon is injury prone and apparently a dumb ass as well but he can catch better then Lindsay. They both pass block pretty well which is good. The better runner though is Lindsay.....he struggled last year with vision a bit, but yesterday he was decisive north and south and it was legit.

I'm not sure Lindsay is the better runner, its close. Melvin moves the pile and breaks tackles, falling forward. Phil just shimmys real sexy out of tackles, not usually falling forward.

Gordon gets the tough yards, the short yards, and the tds. He just does. Phil isn't that kind of runner, which is fine, he doesn't need to be. They are a great combo!

And Gordon's runs to the outside aren't 2 to 3 yards. Theyre 45 yards and a td.

Yet ... the Broncos think the exact opposite.

Of course Gordon is going to lose carries. That was the plan before the season started. Was going to be some type of split. Honestly, I'm just glad we have both on the roster. We need them both.

They stated timeshare into week 1. when you pay Gordon that money its not to sit on the bench. however Lindsay got hurt, and then Gordon hasn't played very well. Lindsay played quite well this past weekend against a decent run defense. They both will be there for the KC tilt and my guess is Lindsay starts to out touch Gordon if his vision stays the way it currently is. This is what happens when Lindsay gets angry he balls out....The tape on how Gordon is running so far doesn't lie, it really hasn't been that good. Some of the same holes are there for him and he slides side to side misses the gaps and then gets dumped. That's not Lindsay's game he loves that gut running and with his vision it is leaps above how Gordon runs the ball. its why he has such a good career YPC between the tackles. he doesn't dance around like a fairy....

The broncos had good intentions with Gordon perhaps, and he is better then freeman, so with Lindsay's injury history its good to have, but this isn't the same guy from 2015-2018....he is a shell of that

Lindsay is 5th in the NFL in yards per carry between the tackles since his debut, this is false.....Gordon may have owned the most broken tackles in the NFL from 2015 to 2018.....that is no longer however the case after a putrid 2019, and 2020 that has been pretty weak as well.

Not false
Stop discounting the fact that gordon played with Driskel for 2 games and teams stacked the box with 9 and 10 guys ne abuse Jeff can't do anything.
Gordon was also at 5 yards a clip and also has that nose for the end zone and can get the goal go to converts. Something Phil has shown he is not built for. Against the pats we saw it. Against the titans we saw it. And we have seen it for the last 2 years too.

Get over it, Gordon is really good, he is really good here, he and Phil are a really good duo, they are both going to help us be really good in the run game. Its so clearly obvious this way too. Its weird how you're so hell bent on trying to prove a point that everyone can see. If this was driskell vs rypien you'd have a case. But its not.

and Lindsay had Case Keenum and Joe Flacco.....I may be hell bent on saying he isn't elite as much as you seem hell bent on saying he is when the numbers dispute that.....he just isn't that good of a runner anymore....he bounces out way to much and abandons his gaps way to quickly now to be consider a elite runner......His pass blocking is on point, and i have said previously he seems to be a better pass catcher then Lindsay but he is no longer that between the tackles beast you think he is....is what it is....

Philip Lindsay is a good player.

Honestly if we could take Gordon's size, and catching ability and combine it with Lindsay's vision and burst north and south.....that would be all pro caliber
