kkr Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I would get rid of Josh McDaniels. Last year Bradford looked good as a rookie in the system that was in place and that was with no one at receiver. This year, still with no one at the position, he doesn't look half the player.

kurtsimonw Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Do what San Diego did with Eli (albeit that was a bit different as San Diego were looking for a QB). Draft him and then somebody will come up with a big offer for him, whether it be players or picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leviramsey Posted October 10, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted October 10, 2011 We covered the drastic rise in Orton's interception rate a moment ago, but John Fox decided to think with his heart on Sunday and bench the erratic Orton for the hopeless Tim Tebow. A good rule for coaches: Don't ever do something because your fans are chanting for you to do it. Admittedly, Orton wasn't anything impressive against an average Chargers pass defense; before being benched, he was 6-of-13 for 34 yards with an interception. Then again, after Orton left, Tebow went 4-of-10 for 79 yards, and 31 of those yards came on a screen pass. With Orton benched and Chad Henne out for the year, the Broncos may now choose to rekindle the trade talks they had with the Dolphins regarding Orton before the season. If they're compelled to give Tebow a chance, it's a move that makes sense for both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leviramsey Posted October 15, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2011 NFL Turning Point is the best NFL highlights show out there, except for only choosing three games a week to show. Still, the extended highlights from NFL Films are epic. Lions @ Cowboys from a couple of weeks ago ("We gonna bust their ass from sideline to sideline, goalpost to goalpost, for four quarters!") Highlights from last week were: Raiders @ Texans (with some masterful renditions of "The Autumn Wind" as the musical score), Chargers @ Broncos (focusing on Tebow), and Eagles @ Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted October 15, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2011 Lloyd trade rumours. FML! If this happens we really are turning the "getting rid of talent" into an art-form. That said, he's getting on a bit and contract is running short. He will be expensive to resign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
