Be thankful, if they make it past 4 wins they’re out of elite QB range. :-) [Reply]
It's proven that altitude and the league for whatever reason schedules them a favorable early home schedule EVERY year is the only reason they have very few seasons like last year. That team had no talent at all and won 5 games with the worst coaches in the league. Cheap, thin air is an advantage no other team has. Games should be banned from being held in that dump. [Reply]
The only road game they won last year was against the god awful Colts w/ a backup QB. So they were .500 at home...go figure.
Word is Lynch looks "significantly better" than Kelly...and that "$wag" is struggling. So much for their future franchise QB if the butt pirate is showing him up.
Donko's are one hit away from Lynch leading their team...and their starting QB has been hurt 3 years in a row. Their two best o-lineman cant even practice yet...and they arent even very good when 100% healthy. [Reply]

Oh - I agree, and have gone back and forth with the Mile High Mule Tool for more than a decade about it. Funny thing is, I still have the same argument that I did back at the turn of the century, and the argument is even more in my favor now. But, as others have said, there is a silver lining - It keeps them away from a legit franchise QB and they end up wasting a 1st round pick on one Paxton Lynch, and all the wasted time that goes along with holding out for any hope that he is something other than a BUST. It also causes them to fork over $18 MILLION (or there abouts) on a back-up QB, to be their starter. Also provides much laughter watching it all unfold...:-) [Reply]

They miss the playoffs at least a dozen times with out that thin air. Countless division titles and byes frauds as well. [Reply]
"Four years ago, Colorado State edge defender Shaq Barrett signed with the Broncos after going undrafted. Since then, Barrett has emerged as an important member of Denver’s defense as a rotational pass rusher.
Following this year’s NFL draft, the Broncos signed former Auburn edge defender Jeff Holland, another candidate to contribute as a rotational rusher. Could Holland follow in Barrett’s footsteps and surprise people this summer?
“You never know,” Broncos defensive coordinator Joe Woods said after practice Wednesday. “The biggest thing is making plays between the white lines. We record all of the positives that guys make, and right now he’s blowing people away...." [Reply]
