Matty, I don’t think Brandstater is the answer. I really think this is just more than Quarterback issues. I’ve never been a big fan of Chris Simms going back to his days at Texas and time with Gruden. I saw clips of him during camp with Gruden trying to explain very basic concepts of his offense. He finally gave up because Simms seemed unable to grasp it.

I hate losing this badly to the Chargers, BUT I think for the long term outlook of the team this is a good thing. I’ve read that the front office in Denver really believed that the Broncos could contend for a division title if they brought in a few players. What this season (and last) shows me, you can coach around talent issues but eventually it catches up to you. The Defense from last year needed to be completely blown up and it was, but we yet have to re-build. Re-building means drafting well and giving it time to develop. I hate moves like signing Ty Law. It’s more of same, desperate band-aid measures that screw over the team next year.

Let’s accept the fact that team needs to re-build. We need an NT and D-line help, another LB to compliment Elvis and Orton is a placeholder. Ship Marshall’s a$$ out of town. HIs blow up at Moreno was garbage after seeing him play like a punk early in the year. What a cancer. Let’s end the season 6-10 and get serious about fixing the problems instead of FA pickup here and there. Isn’t the same reason Shanahan was fired?
