    Talk about a shitty Monday for this guy... Goes from living in SoCal, being a super bowl contender, and playing with Aaron Donald on Sunday night and then he wakes up to all of this!

    It’s a strange move. Yes, they have a young guy they want to play. But why not keep the depth in case of injury? Maybe we’ll learn more over time. But it sounds like the Broncos got a decent player at worst.

    Ehhh, this has happened to him before, he was part of the Marcus Peters trade.

    The Rams weren’t going to resign him and were cutting down his snaps each week. He has a much better shot at getting resigned here, this will probably help his career.

    if he can help us not get utterly torched by any more off-the-street running backs, i'll call the '24 late round pick swap money well spent. . . talking about tanking (in a year with no blue chip QBs) is all well and good, but me and AO need our livers to survive the season! maybe he even turns out to be a capable player, and we re-sign him. . . given that jewell and johnson are both approaching free agency, it doesn't hurt to add some cheap depth that can actually find a gap and make a tackle. . .
    “When we do find that guy, we’ve got to have the continuity on the offensive side to where we can train him and develop him and get him there. This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    If Paton hadn’t ****** up the QB and RT positions I would give him an A, but he still gets an F-, that’s generous too.

    Dude your really jumping off the building about these late round draft picks that don’t even come into play for another 2 years lol.

    Yeah probably character issues but this was a steal from Paton, I don’t see how anybody could find room to complain about the is addition for a 6th round pick

    Clearly Paton hasn’t given up on the season.

    Honestly why should he give up on the season?


    It’s ten games left and were right in the mix of the division and playoff’s. We’re legit a Quarterback change away from truly contending for the division and playoffs

    Whatever gets justin strnad off the field I’m for

    It’s no coincidence our defense has gone to shit after losing Josie jewell.
    Strnad is ass and has no business being on an nfl team let alone start
    They don’t make real men anymore

    btw, I appreciate the ruthless critique. I see it as another side of the coin, and not, well, the wrong-headed conclusion that it seems.

    Yeah, coming from someone who liked the Strnad pick, he’s been dismal.
