Broncos Real Test Coming

I’m about to go eat at Chick-fil-a but thought I’d post this quick thought about the Broncos and the evil Cowgirls.

I think Denver wins this game…which puts them 4-0…which means I’ve drank the kool-aid on the Broncos being a good team this year, right? Wrong. Dallas has looked ridiculously bad so far in the season. The Carolina game was closer than the score thanks to Jake Delhomme doing what he does best lately – cough up the ball. And they are hurt. Which is not good for them but good for the Broncos. Plus, it’ll be good for Wade Phillips to go back to Denver and do what he does best…lose games that he should win. We would know about that. We had our own Wade Phillips era.

The schedule ahead is brutal but if the Broncos can continue to beat the bad teams – Oakland again, KC twice, Washington – that’s 8 wins (assuming they beat the ‘Boys.) That won’t get them in the playoffs but it’s respectable. Then again…the season is early.

RaiderNation – I’m sorry. JaMarcus Russel looks atrocious, McFadden all of a sudden can’t hold on to the football, and your defense can’t tackle. There’s talent on that team but only Al Davis could make that much talent look that bad.

Off to chick-fil-a. Don’t tell Amy.

    Now Grant, the Broncos may be the worst 3-0 team in NFL history. That being said, they may still beat the Cowboys. I doubt it, but luck seems to be going their way(Cincy). I think WP is past his ability as a head coach, and since we have Al Davis jr. as an owner, we may have problems for years to come.
    The Raiders are the worst organization in Pro Sports. I am sad for this once great franchise, but to borrow a phrase from Collin Cowherd, “How can you take a guy(AD) seriously who dresses like Evil Knevil?”

    That being said – GO COWBOYS!!!!!!

    P.S. Was it hard living in Dallas during the early/mid 90′s?

    It was. But I took solace with my Broncos winning back to back in 97-98.

    I think you’re right – Jones may just be AD, Jr. That’s kinda scary…
