Broncos To Place Elvis Dumervil On Injured Reserve

Best of luck, Doom. As a Broncos fan and a U of L student, I’m pulling for ya, man.

Not that ending Dumervil’s season was a way any of us wanted to get down to that number, but an extra roster spot is opened up. 11 players to go, and sounds like Branson will soon join him as the DP says Branson suffered a serious or severe knee injury. One of the two, neither of which is good.

So now we need a tight end. Riar Geer is not ready for NFL action.

I can’t wait until he comes back at 100 percent. Get well soon Doom…

I wish you all the best.

There was no way to predict his recovery by the end of the season and to rely on optimal recovery is foolish. Let him really recover and be ready for the rest of his career.

On a variety of different levels:

-Underpaid 4th round trooper finally gets his deal
-Upon signature a major injury occurs

It is a Greek tragedy on a local scale. Even Sophocles or his bastard child Woody Paige could not have predicted this.

For him, Doom must be frustrated. On a team level, the D is left without a leader. And I’m just here wondering Y!

get well soon Elvis and we look forward to you dominating next season!

Something like this shouldn’t happen to Doom.

but this still isn’t what I wanted the first thing I saw when I got home and booted up my computer to be.

this was bound to follow. The Broncs had a chance to delay this decision until White’s suspension was up thus assessing Doom’s progress a few weeks down the line, but the heel injury made that moot and forced their hand. Get healthy Doom!
Go Broncs!

However this totally sucks. This just gives him a whole year to come back healthy for next season.

Just imagine if we had Elvis and Ayers on the outside! Beast linebackers core. Sigh. Oh well. Get better Doom.

Support Your Team!

Inevitable? Really?

Did you predict this? You always thought it was certain? Well then apparently I’m the only idiot that thought Doom might be playing football late in the season. This situation doesn’t strike me as a Thursday – a certainty that eventually comes whether we like it or not. It strikes me as a sad development. I didn’t see this move as being inevitable, and something tells me that if I look up your past writes… you didn’t either. My guess is that you had a happy slant to Doom’s potential late in the season. But I guess by saying it was inevitable, it makes you sound smart, as if you predicted it.

So kudos for not predicting what you act like you predicted. But pardon the rest of us, if you will, for being a little disappointed in hearing this “inevitable” news.

We are not a team that is going to challenge deep in to the play offs so there was no point keeping Doom on the roster on the off chance he might contribute later down the road.
I wish you a speedy recovery Doom and come back fit and healthy to terrorise the league next year.

It’s the right move. Doom wasn’t going to be 100% in December and it’s not like he’s great vs the run anyway. Dooms is one of those players that needs to be healthy too play well. Minor dings like a broken finger are one thing, but a torn pec doesn’t sound minor to me.

This is an 8-8 boys.

This is sad yet expected news. On the brighter side of it i am fairly encouraged with the play of Jason Hunter and Jarvis Moss. If those two and Ayers can combine for the same or maybe a little bit more of the production Doom had we should be pretty good at rushing the passer. It is hard to replace a pro like Dumervil. But i like those three’s chances.

I guess as sad as it is being made official, this is the logical thing to do. We really do have some good talent to try and keep, so this helps with that as well. They won’t replace Doom, but at least it’s a bright-side to a bummer situation.

Best wishes and super fast healing for you Doom!!

(Note to self: Do NOT update the Madden 2011 roster) :(

See u next year!!!
