Big Bill's Take - Broncos Easy Opponent For Quinn

I think there are 2 main reasons for bringing in Quinn now:
1/ We are not a daunting defense, and Slowik is as predicatable as the sun coming up today.
2/ Our D coaches cant game plan for squat, so throwing Quinn in a short week throws another spanner(wrench) in the works for them.
My frustration with our coaching staff, and in SHanahan’s and Bowlen’s inability to make some moves is KILLING me.
Our players are being sold down the river by inefficient, ineffective and unprofessional coaching.
Like Crennel has done, teams are now game planning our coaching staff as they know we cant make any adjustments…..see the 111 yards Camerillo got on soft zone.

I will say this…If the Broncos don;t send extra pressure at a QB making his first start that will do it for me. I would rather see Brady Quinn beat the Broncos because he was prepared with his hot reads then sit back and let him nickel and dime us down the football field…

Does not this football team remind you of one holding on for grim death rather than a young football team, that was ahead of the curve, that should be attacking for all its worth on BOTH sides of the ball.
They better bring the house on this game.
This team needs to come out swinging and go down fighting.
It is clear from the comments of BM, DJ and Champ that the coaching staff is losing/ has lost this team.
Time for the players to band together!
We need heart and passion. Thats why I am happy BM came out and said what he did!

No doubt Brady will look all-world against us, and then struggle for the rest of the year. Our only hope is that the Broncos really have hit rock bottom and are ready to take personal responsibility and start playing better. The offense is playing like a bunch of spoiled brats. One or two things go against us and the offense just collapses. Cutler and Marshall have to grow up. Fast.

Our defense actually looks like it’s improving (it’s difficult to tell because Cutler gives the other team the ball in great field position so often). They’re certainly not a good defense yet, but I really do think they have improved a bit.

Right now it’s our offense that’s bringing the team down. Their maturity level has taken a drastic backward slide.

And I’ll jump on the coaching bandwagon. Our coaching is pitiful this year.

Okay, I feel better now.

I agree man.
Heres the COLD reality:
I have maintained all along that the talent level on our D is avearge to above average. There are teams out there with LESS talent than us, but who are perfroming better.
The defenese kept us in the games against Kansas, Jacksonville and Miami. Thats what an average/ above average defense will do. Keep you in there so your O can win the game.
Relaistically, the O has LOST us 4 games….not the D, the O. Pathetic ball security, no run game and an a QB playing like a rookie.
I am going to give our D some props here. With the inefficient coaching they are recieving, they ar improving. Our D Line is better, and I do actually like our D Line coach (Johnson). Nice improvements all round. Our DB’s and LBS…..very average. And this is supporse to be Slowiks strength….hate to see his weaknesses.
I dont blame BM….hr has taken stuff on the chin, and I respect his comments from the weekend. I agree. he is matched up one on one all game and is thrown at 3 times in the first half. Almost as if Cutler does not want to get him involved.
This O stinks at the moment….I feel BM and Stokes need to take leadership, put Cutler in his place and get shit sorted.
THEY ARE LOSING US GAMES, NOT THE DEFENSE!!!!!
i feel better too!

we are afraid to blitz. Brady Quinn will be touted as the second coming of Joe Montana after this next game. Then again, with so many injuries our starters will be filled with a bunch of guys who actually want to PROVE themselves. Broncos 37, Browns 27…Quinn gets benched at halftime and Anderson comes in and runs out of time. GO BRONCOS!

PS If we had most of our starters in on defense….I’d pick the Browns to win this one. For some reason I just feel like having in backups will actually improve our defensive performance. It really is all about heart now and backups want to prove themselves in the eyes of their peers and coaches.

If we don’t bump the receivers and blitz the heck out of Brady Quinn, we’re not going to win – especially with the way that the O has played recently. Lets face it, we let Greg Camarillo have a career day on us… I guarantee that if we had played up on him, and especially if we had bumped him at the line, he would not have had even a third as many catches. It was playing off of him like he was Randy Moss that let him make so many catches underneath. I guess Quinn can actually throw the long ball, unlike Pennington, so that means we do have to cover it, but I would make him beat us over the top with guys in his face. Lets face it, he’s a rookie and so he’ll probably make some mistakes. Our gameplan should be to force as many mistakes as possible.

When I read yesterday that Crennel is putting Quinn in, my first thought was “Good timing. They’re about to play us.”

Not that I think we are push-overs. Not that I think we don’t stand a chance, because we very much do, just statistically we have sucked. We are beat up, demoralized, and our coaching has been absurd.

I will say this, I just don’t understand anything the denver defensive coaching has been doing this year. It has been truly baffling.

about the same time we have gotten away from the 3-man rush/front. what a coincidence! now, if we could just stop giving the receivers a 7-yard cushion, we may be able to get off the field more. the combination of a soft zone defense and that cushion, with the absense of blitzing is totally mindless. b-marsh was correct in this regard, as he would surely embarass such a defense if given the chance. aah, jealousy

What a sorry sucka!
