Perhaps being a bit of a homer here...

Post by Canelek »

...but how about young Tim Tebow? Granted, he looks a little silly under center, but I think most of the criticism is overblown. And, he is a rookie QB ffs. I expect him to make a statement Sunday vs. San Diego. What that statement will be is anyone's guess, but I dunno, the kid expects to win, and that is a start...

Personally, I think all of the bullshit and hate towards him has made him stronger. Dude has crazy drive. He isn't Elway, but I don't think he is Kordell Stewart either.

Speaking of which, here is the latest addition at my mom's place:

Nice marmot.

Yeah, the team is in shambles, so as a fan it is important to find some hope! Hah! Need a defense something awful.

Don't feel bad, you were just the latest team that got duped by the Bellicheat/Brady combo of power. I'm not saying all there assist. couches suck, just that they don't come with Brady when you hire them. Because, let's remember what Bellicheat was without Brady...that's right, an awful Brown.

Easy there Kluden, your 'Burgh is showing... :p

I think a lot of people were pleasantly surprised by in what Tebow has shown so far but he wasn't able to do it by himself and at times was sort of adrift in the sea of woe that is Denver. The whole Bronco organization seems like its been flipped over and shaken around so nothing fits since McDaniels got there. Now he's gone, they need to take some steps and right the ship.

True it is showing a bit...but Tom Brady is so damn good that he makes that whole coaching staff look better, I should have left it at that I guess :)

Tebow is fun as hell to watch though. I think they have a great product to put on the field with him next year, and I pray they work on that woeful front seven on your defence. Woeful might be an understatement they get beat so bad at the line of scrimmage.

Tebow at least has a pulse. Next step is to see if he's any good. How's Dumervil coming along?

Doom...depends on if he gets suspended for messing with parking security last October. Dumbass forgot his ID and caused a commotion. Well, let's see if they can draft smart this April. Lots of work to do.

I scare myself some days: I saw the story for the last couple days about Elway (re)joining the Broncos organization and I had a mental image of Canno and all his fellow sufferers shouting "by the power of Elway" sort of like He-man in the old Masters of the Universe cartoons... I guess as long as no one wears tights its all good...

Prepare to say farewell to the only real winner Denver has seen SINCE Elway, as Elway apparently doesn't want Tebow stealing his spotlight. I mean all Tim did in his three starts was throw for 651 yards, rush for another 199, score 7 combined TDs while only throwing 3 picks. I can see why Captain Teef hates him.
