Not exactly starters talent out there... really effects depth. A lot of guys that should be subbing in for a play or two are playing starters roles. Not saying they shouldn't be ready, but that's just what it is.

lmao okay that was funny. +1 for you.

Phillip Thomas was our only hope at Safety. No wonder Rambo dropped to the 6th round. Should have used last years 3rd rounder on DB instead of on Josh (you can't be) LeSerious that we drafted him in the 3rd.

The silver lining is this should be the season Bruce Allen and Dan finally call a spade a spade on move on. There are soooooooooooo many coaches we've missed out on waiting for mike and Kyle to get it together. It's not happening. Time to move on and I imagine Dan wont let the embarrassment go on much longer.

Amen Bro!!! Not having the balls to sit his ass down against Seattle in the playoff game when he was already a gimp, then letting the player get hurt even worse was down right stupidity on Shanny's part. Kyle isn't the offensive genius he was billed as being. Too much hype in the NFL all around, even with coaches. Shanny came in with a rebuilt Broncos team and with a HOF QB and won 2 SBs, then after Elway left hasn't won shit since. I think we need to really get some scouts out to evaluate potential coaches for next season if Mike can't get it together after our bye week.

Agree, and MS/KS no longer have the "we don't have a QB" excuse.

But right now they don't have the QB they thought they had.

He's fully cleared to play, needs to be treated like it.

Purely as a realist and not because im pissed off rite now....if you look at the schedule the easiest game rite now is Oakland and that is a road game. I think going 0-16 is as hard as going 16-0, but we are so bad rite now that i cant imagine where a win is going to come from. Long season though.

I don't really know what his plan was and what can or cant be don't by RG3. What I do know is that KS is now trying to work with a QB that is no longer a threat to run which forces him into a being an inaccurate pocket passer.

Rambo fell for the most part b/c of his character, and was getting more looks than Thomas in camp. Do agree with the LeRib pick though.

In the pre-game thread, someone mentioned that RG3 doesn't like running very much (not comfortable with it) and that they're trying to keep him in the pocket more.

I don't know if there's a shred of truth to it but they sure do coddle him.

He might be cleared to play but he's not 100%.

Ummm...

[GusFrerotte]

I can forgive last weeks game with the slow start because of RG III being rusty, and then they made a game of it, but damn, 2 weeks in a row we start out totally incompetent on offense in the first half? I think RG III was right after all with questioning the Shanaplan and how he was dealt with in the preseason.

Just saying.. since you are a professional

You left off a period after professional since we are both professionals. I actually knew anything was one word. In a hurry I guess. It's all good though. I think we are in sync now.

They aren't using him properly.....and stunted his development as a true NFL QB last year relying on the gimmicky Read-option. RG3 has the arm strength, smarts and accuracy to have a better career than Steve Young or Warren Moon.....but with MS/KS coaching may not make it to a second contract.
