I do agree that Denver took a step back this year thanks to Josh McRetard.
What has their new coach done since joining the Bronco's?
#1 Alienating and trading their young stud QB. Say what you want about Cutler being a cry-baby, but even so when cutler went to talk to McD after the initial flare up, McD told him that he still might be traded. What an arrogant self righteous prick...
#2 Brought in 3 veteran HB's then used pick 12 overall on Moreno. Not only is HB FAR from their biggest need, but Moreno isn't the type of player you pick in the 1st round, much less the first half of it. He is a 210 pound elusive back to runs a 4.6... You put him in the 2008 draft and he's a mid-to-late 2nd rounder without question.
#3 He is getting rid of Denver's zone blocking scheme. You know, that system that's made Denver consistantly one of the best run teams in the NFL for the past decade. The system that's made guys like Olindis Gary, Mike Bell, Tatum bell, Selvin Young look like good backs. Heck, Portis is even the most talented of the post terrell davis era, and he went from averaging 5.5 ypc in denver to like 4.0 on the skins. What kind of idiot changes run blocking schemes when what you have is already fantastic and you have players who are perfect for it?
#4 He is switching to a 3-4 without anything close to proper personnel. They don't have a NT on the team, much less any quality 3-4 Ends, and they lack the depth at LB for it to have it make sense. The projected starters on the DL are Marcus Thomas/Carlton Powell/Kenny Peterson. You can tell the McD came from the pats offense and not their D, because the #1 thing on the pats and now the chiefs is gettng quality D-linemen.
#5 He signed 3 DBs to start along with Champ Bailey, all of whom are 32+ and older then him. What the hell...
Seriously, I'd bet you $1,000,000 that if you asked the Bronco's owner to do it all over again, McD wouldn't be their head coach... Worst off-season imaginable, and despite what the media would lead you to believe, they had a worse draft than the raiders given all the picks they had....
LOL Wise, you are assuming what happened in that convo based on what Cutler says despite there being many reports saying Cutler wanted a trade after Bates left for USC. And BTW, McD and Belichick made Cassell a stud so I think he knows what he is doing with QBs, Cutler is NOT his type of QBs, they like smart QBs who don't turn the ball over. Cutler is an inconsistent big armed QB who will turn the ball over. They aren't switching to a full 3-4 and BTW if you think Moreno wasn't deserving of a first round pick, you don't know much about the draft. 40 times and always overblown. If anyone here has watched Moreno a good deal in college, they'd know this guy is going to be a great Pro. He's a multi dimensional HB a lot like LaDainian Tomlinson. He may not run a 4.2 but 40 times are still bullshit, Moreno can line up in the slot and catch passes, he is one of the quickest people I've ever seen and is surprisingly powerful for his size as well as being a workhorse RB. I HATE UGA and still love Moreno, I wonder why...because the guy is an amazing RB. Watching him play in College(vs. SEC defenses) will tell you all you need to know about him...I can't believe people even use 40 times to justify their arguments even more, the combine is not even really needed except for the smaller school guys and the 40 time is one of the least important drills except for KRs and PRs.
