Diagnosing the Problem: Third Down and Out?
About eleven months ago, I finally gave up on Kyle Orton and jumped squarely on the Tim Tebow bandwagon for the rest of the 2010 season. The post was titled "Third Down...and Out" and it centered around the obvious failings of the starting quarterback to convert on third downs. I have always...
Some Clarification is in Order: Mid-Season Quarterback Changes
So with Tebow's first start a big W now in the books, I wanted to get some perspective on mid-season quarterback changes in the NFL. When I set out to do this Some Clarification is in Order, I wasn't sure what to expect, for most of these studies I have a general idea of what I am going to find,...
Broncos Fans Get What They Want; Let The Growing Pains Begin!
It happened much sooner than I ever thought would be possible considering how training camp and preseason went down, but Tim Tebow is now the starter for the Denver Broncos. It's no secret that I felt Tebow should have been the starter this year, until training camp that is. As good as Kyle Orton...
2011 Denver Broncos Preview: Quarterback
The Denver Broncos certainly have a conundrum on their hands at quarterback that will only get bigger as the preseason wears on, especially if Tim Tebow shows something during live game action, lending credence to his "gamer" mystique. It is obvious that Kyle Orton took this offseason seriously and...
Bronco Byte's: A Two-Headed Beast?
Perhaps the best thing that was to happen for the Denver Broncos this week is Kyle Orton's unwillingness to restructure his contract. He wants to be paid and he wants to become a free agent in 2012. The Broncos stand to gain everything, while losing nothing (except cash money). The risk of this...
Kyle Orton Deserves Mercy
The reality of the Denver Broncos quarterback situation is that Kyle Orton will never again be given a fair shake by a vast majority of Broncos fans - not with Tim Tebow sitting on the bench wanting to play. I recall seeing a recent fan poll containing over 10,000 votes, in which fans voted who...
Third Down...and Out
I tried to get this post finished before Sunday's game, but I didn't expect the rabbit hole I was entering to be so deep and seemingly never-ending. Fortunately, I had all the data researched and ready to go by late Saturday night so all I had to do was plug in the numbers from the Broncos-Chiefs...
The Art of Mixing Things Up
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results. I take a lot of flak for expressing my opinion around here and at times I ask for it with my own belligerent attitude, however, being accused of bias by those who themselves are bias only...
Gus Frerotte, Tarvaris Jackson, Brad Childress, and the Firing Range
I told you yesterday in my late update that I had had a long day on Tuesday, but not the kind of "long day" that you look back on and are glad it's over. See, as a military member, I have a lot of things that I have to do in addition to my "regular job" of being an instructor in order to keep...
Starting Quarterback Brian Griese ready to take on Atlanta Falcons Sunday
This off-season the Bucs traded a second day Draft Pick to the Chicago Bears to bring back QB Brian Griese to Tampa. When Griese heard of the trade he was initially perturbed as the Bucs had once before let him go. Since then Griese has welcomed the opportunity with open hands knowing that one day...
