i think christian ponder playing against the packers will have a better game than tim tebow playing against the jets.

he'll also have a better nfl career. but he wasn't a first round pick and doesn't have an adoring army of fans willing to ignore fundamental flaws in his abilities.

Bold statement about tonight. One of the worst defenses in the game as opposed t one of the best.
With your ability to forecast the unknown you to should spend more time in the selections thread. Where did you have the Broncos 4 starts ago? Certainly it was 3-1. You people know as much about football as Riot does politics.

Von Miller will turn out (might already be) the best player from the last two or three drafts. Kid is a remarkable player and athlete and is learning to recognize and cover much more quickly than I expected. That was a great decision, not that Peterson hasn't been impressive but Miller is the real deal.

while I agree with you... Suh is that player from the last two or three drafts. Von Miller has the opportunity to be as dominant as Suh though. He's a beast.

I was going to make a joke about Suh vs. Miller education but just learned that Suh graduated with a degree as well. Nice to see these kids finishing out college.

Tebow is one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. But he is one of the best football players in the league. All 32 teams in football would be lucky to have a guy with his heart and courage on their team.

I think an arguement could be made it was really only 7. I put the first 3 on Jets punter TJ Conley who gave them unbelieveable field position. They only got 15 yards before they kicked the FG.

They are just not quite where they need to be at times.
Come on, the Defense gave up 10 points last night and 3 of them were after the shank, which left the Broncos in FG position. That loss last night is definitely not on the Jets defense (even taking the last 5 minutes into consideration).

Yes he was, he was the 12th pick overall.
