Even if you don’t agree with his analysis, at least he uses SOME kind rationale for his opinions, and at the same time listens to reader comments, even adjusting his statements as appropriate (if you get a bunch of “Kyle who?” messages, wouldn’t you have some ammo to think that Chicago didn’t care? Now he’s getting loads of “but we like Orton!” messages, so he brings that up…I respect that).

Compare that to Jamie Dukes, who doesn’t have even basic facts (Orton at 6’4" is shorter than Cutler at 6’3"? Can’t remember how many SBs Elway went to? Won’t listen to Rod Smith on the state of the Broncos?)

Dukes comes off as bitter, un-informed, and just happy to hear himself talk. Joyner uses crazy things like facts and data to make his points.

I might just have to pick up Scientific Football, just for fun!

If that’s all it takes to make you fly off in a temper tantrum, I’ll try not to engage you as an intelligent and civilized person in the future.

Seriously? The fact that Joyner was not himself a player makes him less of a worthy writer? Warren Sapp pretty much said he put Cutler at #5 because “he left Denver.” Yeah, that’s sound reasoning.

McG, you criticize everyone who knocks folks for seeming anti-Broncos or pro-Cutler. But you choose to pull the same stuff, just from the other side of the fence.

You’re misrepresenting Joyner’s words to make your point, too. Joyner did not ever say Cutler was the next Grossman. He did not equate the two players, in any way. He merely said Cutler would “remind” or “make Bears fans remember” Grossman. That is a far cry from saying they are similar players or have similar skill sets.

he is “in the fold” at ESPN, but it should be noted that he relies purely on game tape, and he has access to ESPN’s film libraries, which includes coaches’ tape.

I wrote that line because I expected some folks to just rail on Joyner. You’ve obliged. It’s funny when folks like you skewer Joyner’s notation of Bad Decision %, because you fail to consider that he rated EVERY NFL QB and found that Cutler was among the worst. He did not just randomly say “Jay Cutler makes the most poor decisions of anyone in football.”

Take a look back at what I’ve written about Joyner’s articles. I called the first one “interesting.” I did not say it was brilliant. I have no problem with folks who criticize the Broncos if their basis is in fact rather than hyperbole.

Bring yer helmet and flak jacket!!

I’m will swear off all MSM and just listen to contrarians and stat junkies. I will think outside the box because it is the cool thing to do. I can be unique , I promise.

Dang you Peter King, Clayton, NFL Network, Dang you ESPN, Scott Wright, Dave Krieger. You have filled my head with MSM lies. You are all lazy, good for nothing Bronco haters.

The Coach will expose you all in short order.

Dukes got beat up because he was coming to Denver to change Cutler’s diapers. LOL!

So can I join your team now?

As I was reading the column, I couldn’t put 2 and 2 together. My apologies, jvill.
