Mmmmm... who wants some humble pie? Andy? Big Blue? Me? Everyone?
The Denver Bronco's are 6-0, defeating Dallas, New England, and the San Diego Chargers their last three games. And they did so with class, wearing poo-poo brown candy cane striped socks. Can you believe it? Not that their 6-0, that they'd wear something resembling Bronco scat with yellow hay inclusions. Nice.
Guess what, it appears that J. MickyD knows a little more about football than we do. Denver's defense has gone from near worst to first, with 11 points allowed per game. The Bronco's have allowed only 10 points scored in the second half all season. That's good.
It also appears that Danny boy was correct about both Kyle Orton and Jay Cutler being under and over rated respectively. This season Kyle Orton has a career high QB rating of over 100. Jay-Jay the bear's QB rating? 87. Tack on the 7 INTs and a just above 500 record with wins over Detroit and Seattle and I'm not that impressed (Orton only 1 INT). It appears that J. McD's perceived insanity was actually genius. Happens to me all the time.
On the other side of the spectrum, it looks like Kerry Collins contract with Satan was for one year and one year only of average football quarterbackin'. It's expired folks. What I'm seeing for Tennessee this year is what I expected from them last year. Time to give Vince one more chance, and then.. Kitna? (I'm surprised to find out Kitna is not a free agent. Good for him!). Oh, and all you 0-6 teams are worse than the Lions, you can thank Washington and Evil Zorn for that. Save vs poison or die Washington!

I find the Denver Broncos to be the biggest conundrum since Muumuuman's non sequitor D&D reference.
The defense is essentially the same personnel that got lit up last year. Kyle Orton isn't a real quarterback, but isn't asked to really play like one, and somehow, someway, the combined efforts of Knowshon and Buckhalter are providing enough running oomph to keep Orton honest.
I would like to see what happens to this team if they go 10-13 points down early in a game. I'm just wondering if we will see that this season.
The Broncos seem to be playing good football. Teams may develop a better idea of Denver's weaknesses as the season progresses, but they are getting it done.
Knew the TN window was closing but I didn't realize it had already slammed shut.
Snyder rolled a two. Is that good?
Two is good. Nice roll Snyder.
"Nevermore!"
