The Helicopter Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I’m more concerned about what this says about our FO & HC...and curious to know how many Bronco jerseys he ‘sells’. If we win the SB none will care about any antics (ala Talib), whereas if we flame out, again, everyone’s to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was in medical school in Fort Worth, I rotated at the local children's hospital. Pacman was there EVERY week that the team was in town to see the kids. Romo did the same thing. Both of those guys were kind, humble and very encouraging to little ones in tough situations. NFL teams require players regularly take part in these types of activities. The fact that he was cool about it is awesome though, I’ve heard stories where some athletes are jerks the entire time or that it’s pretty obvious they were being forced to be there.

I really don’t think he does a whole lot for Denver outside of maybe returning punts. But you’re getting a bit over the top trying to defend him. Jones is a POS person. Trying to argue that is a losing battle. Trouble has followed him since he set foot in the league, that doesn’t happen by accident. He may be well liked and a good locker room guy, I have no idea, but to say he’s a “smart player” is ludicrous. He has a history of boneheaded plays. It was only 2 years ago he and Burfict (surprise those 2 were included in the same sentence) cost the Bengals a playoff win vs the Steelers. Distinguishing between off the field concerns and locker room concerns is not over the top. The team was considered with the latter and not the former.

BroncosFan2010 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 He seems to be slightly more grown up than before, but its a sign of Elway's overconfidence in replacing good players with replacement level guys when we scramble for someone like this so late in the offseason. He thought Langley would progress and a 4th CB level talent like Brock could slide into #3 in our 3CB heavy scheme, but alas no. Then we wait too long and lose out on DRC, a considerably better character guy who is one down season off 21PD and 6INT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncofan Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 To show that he’s seen as possible 3rd CB / PR but as a short term investment - not even guaranteed $. Has to make squad to get 90k bonus and the 1M+ salary. Makes tonight interesting as Pacman needs to play decently tonight to stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a Klis-hating Fan Club I can join? In the last few years this franchise has adopted a very Patriots-esque approach where favorable coverage is traded is access. Have you heard/read Klis (or anyone at The Fan) say something negative about this team? They have their own radio station for Pete's sake, two of their own radio stations if you count The Fan, the most widely-watched local TV network and a cheerleading blog. If one gets their information from only those sources, which are far and away the most popular and most widely-consumed, you'd think a 14-2 season and No. 1 seed is a fete accompli.
