to handle what the Broncos displayed. If I wanted to watch a snuff film I would have just watched the Super Bowl XXIV highlight film. That would have been only a half and hour out of my life. This team is not a mess it is a Superfund site. I still love Shanahan. Shanahan the coach. But I am not in love with Shanahan the GM. I think he has made too many misses to make up for the hits. The Chargers came in and did their best Ike Turner impersonation. There has to be changes.

Shanahan has to work to start collecting draft picks not guys who can't make it out of camp.

Special Teams has to stop being an after thought. When this team won Super Bowls they would win the field position battles and had a returner you had to be scared of.

I love John Lynch but it is time for this team to do what it has done well in the past. Find Safeties. Also it is time to find better Corners wh are not afraid to make plays. Hey I like Dre' Bly, but when he was under 30.

You can also say the same for the LB's

And like every year we need Defensive linemen who can actually affect the game in a positive manner.

Character matters, I do not mind him taking flyers on players. Sometimes you do find a Randy Moss, but we have been finding too many Dale Carter's.

Lastly, regain $#@!ing home field advantage. The players on the field have to make the fans want to cheer!

There are pieces here. We may have to take it on the chin for another year, but this team needs to get younger and hungier. I hate losing, but I can stomach it a little easier if I see a team that is learning and trying to get better. Not a vetran team that looks like it is walking through the season.
