WISHY WASHY and THE BEAST

The Denver Broncos are my love. If asked to either stop watching them or stop dating any of my past girlfriends, sadly Denver would be chosen evry single time. Ha ha. When i hear the MSM bash ANY bronco I go straight into defense mode. These guys hardly ever watch a full game and never tell a whole story. That being said I become less and less tolerant of OUR fans being as my pops would say wishy washy, to the tune of being banned once from this sight. MY bad Mr. Bena or whoever sets the rules.. Now we have a YOUNG QB with a raw game and in need of growth. When the hell did we give up so easy? I mean if the MSM says he wont get better than who are we to question there greatness? SARCASM much? These guys will NEVER and I repeat NEVER give Tebow his due. Tebow could win 3 superbowls in a row and I would bet dollars to doughnuts that he would still be questioned. That is why you never see him compared to guys his age and experience level. Its always Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and even The Duke. Thats because it helps them make whatever short sided point they are trying to make. They are a joke and frankly if the producers ever let me through I will ruin Cowherds day. The guy is as soft as a teddy bear in a padded room. Now for another wishy washy subject. On this one I am calling out myslef. MIDDLE LINEBACKER is my absolute favorite position. So to watch Mays all year was a little like walking backwards naked through a corn field. The guy doesnt have what it takes. Period. End of story. Hasta la eggroll. So that I am not wishy or washy on. But his younger counterpart Mr. Irving has made me flip and flop all year. I want to be patient, I want to look back at his highlight reels and be excited. Yet He couldnt out perform MINUTE LATE MAYS and even see the field. SO....WISH WASH WISH WASH The reason I bring that up is beacause its mock time and I only have one thing on my wish list. Vontaze Burfict. This is my guy. 100%. YOUTUBE him, check his stats his stories and his soul. The guy will be a HOF MLB. I am absolutly sure of it(barring injuries). I played MLB and I have watched the position more than most. Lke I said, its my FAV. The kid is lights out, and ala Ray Lewis will begin to slip down the board. Ive heard Philly might take him ahead of us, but other than them I havent heard much chatter. I know we all want pressure up the middle, and hell I do too. The thing is we needed that last year too, but we had a chance at a home run and swung. Well thanks for the VON. Good call. I believe this kid will be the AL WILSON we have been missing. I also believe we can get talent and a rush up the middle in the later rounds. I just keep seeing this same defense and its Pro Bowlers playing next to a Monster, and soon taking on that monsters personality. Believe it boys and girls thats exactly what Burfict is. A KILLER. And, as a side note to those who point to his attitude and pension for personal fouls, he doesnt have off field issues and we could always room him with Tebow haha

I liked Doc Bears thoughts on Burfict this morning .

over at itsalloverfatman.com . He says Burfict does not play smart or controlled football go over and check it out it was a nice and insightful read.

That's why he has to be taught by professionals

he has the unquestioned athleticism to be a monster on the field of play (you either wake up in the morning with that… or not… it’s not something that can be taught, much like Tebow’s skill set). Now this is where it turns into a crap shoot, does he have the mental capacity to be taught the correctable things he lacks? That is the million $ question that separates beasts from busts.

If a wise old coach like Fox, Del Rio, or Smith can reach him, we could possibly have a Ray Lewis type MIKE on our team for years. Such is the gamble of the NFL draft.

That's why a guy like that goes undraft a lot of times.

I would hope EFX have enough sense to stay away from a guy like this in the first 3 rds. Now if he was there in the 4th the risk isn’t near as great as earlier…Definitely a great physical athlete, but upstairs nobodies home…

Win, lose or draw, we are the Denver Broncos! 13-3 Baby!!! Until we ain't!

if

Someone gets him in round three it’ll be like getting Davis in the 6th

he's young though

I definitely wasn’t the source of infinite intelligence and wisdom I am now when I was in my early 20’s. ;-P

I'm sorry if the truth hurts

but that was the hardest story to read ever.

I did like the walking through a cornfield backwards analogy though.

Paragraphs man, please

Von Miller put Cowherd in his place this morning saying that he trusted Tebow more than anybody else when the game is on the line. That’s a pretty big compliment from a badass rookie. Tebow will be great.

Heck yes it was

not only him, but Dawkins, Champ, Haggan… a lot of our vets hail Tebow as “their” guy.

Well before I got the boot formatting was different. IAOFM is a joke and I was at all the home games he is a wild man, but just like footwork, decision making can be coached. But hey i just don’t agree on letting a game changer pass us by and I guarentee that if he does he will be Ray Lewis’s replacement and haunt us for years

by TRUTH_HURTS on Feb 1, 2012 11:44 AM MST via mobile reply actions  

good post man - paragraphs are much easier to read, but I getchya!

I haven’t followed Burfict as you have, but the Mike position is one of my faves as well (SS too). I do know he’s an animal though, and I’d be fine taking a chance on that.

I wouldn't go as far as say IAOFM is a 'joke' per say, but they have their moments and Doc isn't one of them...

Doc is a very good analyst who is a former doctor (if that is a term) who studies lots of film and analyst of players at all the positions, not just one in particular or a master of any. I know that he puts a lot of time and effort into his work and was one of rh bright spots over here until they ventured off to do their own site. I’ve been banned from their site, but I have nothing really bad to say about them in general, because, afterall their agenda is the same as mine…Denver Broncos.

Doc knows his football.

Good guy.

Burfict

Seems like someone al davis would draft

by e_saites on Feb 1, 2012 1:53 PM MST via Android app reply actions  

I would love Burfict!!!

I agree, I think the MLB makes the defense go and we have had a big whole since Wilson left. The dude will learn and mature. I am not to worried about his character. Every body is worried about but look at Ray Lewis, he was somehow connected to a murder. (don’t remember exact details but I know he was involved in something to with a murder) now everyone talks about how great and what a leader he is. If Burfict is on the board we are stupid if we don’t take him. We already have a Fletcher Cox on the team, he wears #98.

by rc117 on Feb 1, 2012 2:15 PM MST reply actions  

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Ive been saying i wanted us to take Burflict in the 1st round all offseason so far…if we think he will drop far enough, then trade our 1st round pick for a 2nd and a third and pick him up there and fill more needs (ie. Defensive Tackle or Corner). Think about how ridiculous of an upgrade Vontaze Burflict and Janoris Jenkins would be! if we play our cards right it could happen!

by Nelliott34 on Feb 1, 2012 2:43 PM MST reply actions  

Like I've said elsewhere, I wouldn't be hurt if EFX drafted Burfict...

If they figure they can channel his mental aspect of the game then alrighty then.

Win, lose or draw, we are the Denver Broncos! 13-3 Baby!!! Until we ain't!

I dont know doc..

I wasn’t implying that he or his writing is a joke. I think their agenda is….im sure he is terrific at what he does, but he is wrong and I just hope it isn’t the Ravens that prove it

by TRUTH_HURTS on Feb 1, 2012 6:58 PM MST via mobile reply actions  

well I tried to post highlights

internet hates me today…rioght back at ya intro-net. :p

by alkatraz76 on Feb 2, 2012 9:03 AM MST up reply actions  

From what I saw

PRO: He attacks the line of scrimmage(would make him a good run stopper and maybe a sack specialist too) He is VERY quick, and keeps playing to the ball.

CON: He also seems to enjoy hitting but NOT tackling. He is a little dirty too. His attitude IS a problem. That can be like a Randy Moss/ Ray Lewis thing where everyone wishes they took the chance. Or it could be a Tony mandrich/Ryan Leaf thing where everyone is glad they passed.

All in all I wouldn’t mind drafting him in 2nd or 3rd.

by alkatraz76 on Feb 2, 2012 9:09 AM MST up reply actions  

That list is not very long.

The Cowboys (Aikman) and Colts (Manning). Both were #2s.
