When was the last time that the Donks started with a loss on opening day? Coincidentally, when was the last time that the Donks opened on the road? [Reply]

Cool, should come in handy vs CHI... we'll see a completely different performance by the team in predominantly orange and blue. I can't wait!
Shaq Barrett looked great against the Panthers tonight. If that guy was this good in Denver why didn't they play him opposite Von? They could have used that high first rounder on another position, instead of Chubb. [Reply]

Naw, I doubt it. (And I know you're being sarcastic) The Donx know they blow, early this season. They'll get no momentum from the ass whooping Oakland gave them. About the best you can hope for is for them to not get blown out by better teams at home. The cool thing is, now that they dont have their usual front loaded home schedule, they're already in last place, where they belong.

I'm very much looking forward to it.... so, you're O/U on wins is something like 4, yeah? [Reply]

This place is littered with me predicting the ceiling for Den is 6 - 10 this year. Only they'll be buried by Halloween this season cuz their schedule is not front loaded with home games. They"re already in last place and they'll remain there all season. [Reply]

6-10 ... nice, so you're kind of a doubter and kind of a believer. [Reply]

Well, if he's saying 10 is a possible ceiling... I'd say 10 wins being pretty good would mark TEX somewhat comfortably in the believer crowd. Now, had he said 3-6, totally a doubter. But, there's enough wiggle room in that 6-10 range for anything to happen and totally lean strongly on the 'we shall see' stance.
