It is fun trying to predict when that inevitably happens.
I prefer to frame it in Tater TD passes rather than in games. I feel all hope will be lost in Donko land this season before Tater throws his 10th TD pass. 7 games might come sooner than 10 TDs. [Reply]
Darren Waller barely played last year and Jacobs isn't going anywhere. It's basically Carr for Jimmy G. That's it. They also added pass rush (getting Jones back as well), Marcus Peters, etc.
I'm not even saying the Raiders will beat the Broncos, and it's entirely possible that they get swept, but you're over here acting like it's an automatic W, and that's just silly.
I agree. If Walruss plays like he did last year, a healthy Jimmy G is good enough to beat him. Will it happen? I dunno, but I wouldn't want to have to bet on either team. [Reply]
Oof! That article was brutal! Talk about throwing a wet blanket over donk fans' preseason dreams. It was a great read, and I especially loved the fan comments section! :-)
Quesadildos don't click that link or you won't even make it to the first game, and that wouldn't be any fun for any of us!
Sam:
Our Walmart-ification was complete when we traded our entire draft for a washed coach to pair with our Walmart quarterback. They're both the same size.
Andrew:
Fuck Rahim Moore. I will never get over that.
Benjamin:
We could have drafted Josh Allen, but instead took Bradley Chubb, who we traded for a first round pick which we used to acquire... a coach.
We could have drafted Justin Jefferson but instead took Jerry Jeudy. Hey, at least we didn't pick the guy who committed vehicular manslaughter.
We still lost both games to the fucking Raiders last year.
Ascher:
I am sitting here 24 hours after we were absolutely skullfucked by a 3-8 Panthers team that was actively trying to tank. Our defense is currently first in points and yards allowed per drive while our offense is dead last in those same statistics. If we could score 18 points in regulation, we would currently be 9-2.
MEGA FUCK Russell Wilson, and if that motherfucker says “Let’s Ride” one more time, I will beat him with Future’s latest LP.
Davis:
The new coach is both washed up and one of the biggest assholes in a league full of them. The new owners are putting out feelers about building a new stadium in the middle of fucking nowhere, probably by the airport. Lewis Hamilton hasn’t won a race since becoming a minority owner. I am constantly trying to justify Wilson’s performance. I became an expert in athlete charity overhead so that I could confidently tell people that his terrible foundation really isn’t much worse than every other player’s, like that makes it okay. When another Broncos fan from Montana (where I live) or Wyoming tells me they hate Wilson, I have to sort out whether they think that because they have functional senses and watch the games or because they think that black players should stick to running back.
I am so far gone that I went to a bar to watch the games last season after they got pulled off the air for some of the worst offensive play calling known to man. I’m going to watch every game this year and I will still wonder why I get depressed and anxious in the fall and winter. I’ll try to blame it on seasonal affective disorder but we all know that’s not true.
Jon:
The new owners are just DYING to build a gazillion dollar suburban stadium surrounded by "mixed use development" and a parking monopoly that can't be reached by bus or train. The '22 Broncos had the greatest difference in competence between the head coach and defensive coordinator in the history of mankind. That DC left, and the fanbase hasn't really processed the fact that the downgrade to Vance Joseph is probably worth two or three losses. The team will be staring up at Mahomes in the standings for 12 more years, which is probably more time than the Colorado River has left. And the stadium plays Toby Keith jingo jingles while the color guard marches onto the field before each home game.

Frank Clark on Denver Broncos-Kansas City Chiefs: ‘I Wouldn’t Call it a Rivalry’ | Sports Illustrated

“I wouldn’t call it a rivalry,” Clark told BroncosTV. “In a rivalry, it’s competitive... I’m on the Broncos now, and I’ve been on the other side, and we didn’t call it a rivalry then. I’m on the Broncos now. Until we become competitive enough, we have to beat [that] team. We have to win our division. We have to do a few things. It’s not just about the Chiefs. It’s things we have to do here. We have to get our own ball together here in order for us to go out and compete for us to become one of those [factors].”
I have to respect Denver media. They are pretty honest when it comes to their football team. If they suck, they will let you know about it. Mike Klit does sugarcoat his reporting at times, but he has to, since he covers the team for a local news station. Otherwise, their journalists are spot on when it comes to pointing out the suckage of the donko football team. It's great theater. [Reply]

Wait...the guy's name is "Mike Klit"? Seriously? [Reply]
