i trust my absence wasnt missed...im not flattering myself- i just highly doubt anyone REALLY cares what i say...
however i want to bring up a few interesting points, and keep in mind i love jake as much as everyone (how many is it?) as LPP.
did jake not inherit a team with a better defense than jay? this isnt a judgment call on the QBs but rather a testament to how incredibly nutsty our defense has gotten. i dont understand how one unit goes downhill so fast....its like the inverse of atlanta's offense from last year to present.
but honestly what happened to the defense? aside from the obvious departures of players like al wilson and john lynch and sadly DW....what the HELL happened? does our defense not look like a JV squad?
this being said...and i hate to give ground to LPP because, well, i hate to give ground period...i do believe the broncos should have at least a bicameral operating system....shanahan is, in my mind, a terrific COACH. top 4 in the league at getting what he wants out of players, at calling correct plays, taking calculated risks, and flat out being an a$$ when he needs to be...but aside from the past 2 draft classes he is terrible...bottom of the barrel
what needs to happen, in my opinion, is this- they need a head of personnel. off hand i cannot remember the football vernacular for it, but it needs to happen. a person in charge of bringing in free agents and drafting rookies. who??? maybe his wife, or son... maybe the LPP guy(s)
someone who understands what the denver offense thrives on and how it operates..and bring in quality football players who can do what is necessary...
i am tired...will post more later
