I said the exact same thing. Best shape he's probably ever been in that I've seen.

we thought the same thing as soon as we saw him. Cant wait to see the James muscle back crushing Qb's

Get Redman out and Dwyer in until Mendy is 105%

OL... still

Injuries (as a whole) are scaring the hell outta me.

Dear Haley, Let Ben be Ben. We have no OL, we have no run game...

Someone tell me how the F-CK Doug Legs is still on an NFL roster.

A mess! Redman sucks!

My thoughts are this: 1 we have to get in the endzone from the redzone
2. We need DD back from IR
3. Wallace isn't great against a top tier CB
4. These quick passes will help keep Ben healthy
5. We need Redman to play a #2 back and let JD and Mendy be primary.
6. Colon is making up for 2 years of missed false starts.

Oh my god. Early on, dare I say it, he was worse than Bruce Arians. Oh, what have we got here? Another delayed draw on first down. If I can sit in a college dorm room and predict it, I'm sure the Broncos defense can predict it. It was so frustrating watching him call the exact same mundane plays for 2 yards over and over again and not changing it up at all. And to add to the redzone comments, come on. Honestly? 1st and goal at the 5 yard line and you don't give it to one of your 3 power backs that you have sitting on the bench? I don't get it.

That being said, play calling later in the game did improve, but that was just because it was situational and they needed to move the ball faster. Hopefully move that "situational" play calling earlier into the game next time. The Dwyer/Redman/Rainey combo is great and all, but put the ball in the hands of one of the QBs in the league...assuming that he sharpens up his accuracy in the coming weeks.

I think Wallace showed he missed a lot of practice. Just seemed to be a step or 2 out of sync with Ben. I think they will improve dramatically over the next couple weeks.

What scares me is playing the NFC east. Giants Jason Pierre Paul, Tuck & Osi. Eagles D-line & the Cowboys with Ware. It's possible they all have 8 sacks against us.

I thought O would have been fine if Ben hadn't missed some wide open receivers. Injuries to O line just killing an already stressed situation. Running the ball looks like ****, but how much of that is because the line wasnt great? No pass rush to speak of, secondary couldn't cover anything. Troy looked old, slow, and out of position on every big play. I had high hopes that this would be a good year, but now think most of the pundits are right - probably 3rd place in the division, and better be careful of the Browns even passing them.
If the lack of Harrison and Clark makes this team dee go in the crapper, VERY concerned with our depth and coaching.
Penalties were a concern.
Kicking game was the only bright point.

Yeah, what was with all the false starts and illegal formations? Honestly that **** is inexcusable.
