They upgraded at QB (even though he isn't nearly as good as they thought) and are struggling with the very worst teams in the league. They're racking up penalties at an alarming rate, are poorly prepared, clock management is awful, playcalling is bad, and he already cost them a win with one of the worst coaching decisions in NFL history. Add the choruses of boos in his first home game and the play clock countdown and yeah......it's significantly worse. [Reply]

That's not what happened in Denver. Our backups were forced to play a ton of snaps in roles they weren't meant for. We had to replace a route god like Jeudy with:
Tyree Cleveland, who made the team strictly because of ST's and is only used as a blocker on offense.
Montrell Washington, who is a returner/gadget guy at the moment. He's still learning how to play WR.
Kendall Hinton, who is an actual receiver who can fill in for a starter in a pinch.

Give credit it where it’s due. Ian Hartitz is a brilliant Twitter handle.
