What's wrong with the Broncos? - New England Patriots Forums

They scored only 13 points. You can't win many games scoring 13 points.

And 106 yards passing!

Should they fire the Offensive co-ordinator now, or give him one more chance?

What's wrong with their receivers? Shanahan is losing his touch. He should have selected short term help in the draft, not looked long-term. If his arrrogance hadn't let Ashlie Lelie go, they might move the ball more effectively! And Trevor Price on the D-line might have helped too! Arrogance... ARROGANCE!!!!

I could see him letting Lelie go, it's always a good idea to give up on your first round picks.

But why not at least two high priced free agents?

With their defense only allowing one TD in four games, it really doesn't matter if they only score 13 points in a game.

The Broncos are winning with D this year as we all know unfortunately. Their D is impressive but Baltimore made some big plays on them. Plummer mailed it in for 3 quarters before the Ravens tired out as they usually do when trying to keep the team in it by themselves.

Come on, they got lucky and got three interceptions. I think they need to trade for at least two WRs immediately and change offensive co-ordinators.

Of course I might give Brady until mid season to straighten out because of his history, Plummer gets no such treatment.

Time for the Jay Cultler era now!

nothing wrong with the broncos, they beat us

it seems that we always play our worst and they play their best when we play each other

You're missing the point. They spent their second round pick on a tight end who's caught one pass all season. One pass!!! He's never going to be any good.

In that regard, we spent our 2nd round pick on a WR that have had only a few catches too.

It's still a young season, i am sure this tight end will develop into something better, just like CJ will.

that defense of theirs is not too shabby at all. even when the offense couldn't carry the team the D could. 1 TD allowed in 4 games. That's pretty disgusting (in a good way)

I believe this thread was started as an exercise in parody... RC's point is there's nothing wrong with the Broncos, and that there's nothing wrong with the Pats, contrary to the nattering nabobs of negativity...
