NFL is using a team with a losing record to set an example. The QB's were not following mask protocol and the NFL talked about stiff penalties a few weeks ago. They also had one game already re-scheduled and the NFL will do everything to lower the odds of Week 18.

I say the league was put into a box. That said I think the league should be allowing the Broncos to forfeit if they choose fit. I mean is the NFL really gonna lose from one game being canceled?

A forfeit is considered a game. You would have 2 owners that would not want to pay players for services not rendered. From a cosmetic standpoint there has never been a forfeit in NFL history.

The guy who's keeping the Broncos in the game against KC is Shelby Harris. He's been out be==of injuries but has swatted down 3 passes by Mahones. Credit Denver for hanging tough-am leading 10-9 at the half. Surprising--the Vegas line on this game was KC and 14. As dismal as the Saints game was--for a variety of reasons--credit the Bronco coaching staff for getting the club ready to play against the SB champs on their field!

Another ugly game for the Mules. Josh Allen came into Denver and made John Elway look like an idiot for passing on him a couple years ago. Broncos have a ton of off-season needs to address. They need an owner, a new general manager, a better coaching staff, and a new quarterback.

Look like? He is an idiot!

Denver set an ignominious record today. First team in NFL history to win the Superbowl and then miss the playoffs for five straight seasons. They need an owner and a competent front office so freaking bad.

I kind of sat out the 2020 season. Not that I missed much. I'm hoping the front office shuffling will help with some things. This was a horrible year for a team trying to rebuild. The best teams this year were a year or two or more into their lifecycles or they had Tom Brady. The Broncos were trying to break in a new QB with no off season. And at one point was forced to play without a QB while the league bent over backwards to accommodate other teams.

So...

I don't care about the 5-11 record. I don't want to see the team move on from Lock. (Unless they somehow bring in Watson from the Texans.) I think this year is just an unfortunate anomaly I hope we can all forget about soon.

Glad to see you are back iknowftbll.

I’d like to see Watson end up in the NFC but if he landed with the Broncos or Raiders that would be cool too. Could you imagine Mahomes, Herbert and Watson all in the same division?

My guess is the team is going to take a close look at him in 2021. If he doesn't get it done, I bet they draft a QB in 2022. It's been since Peyton Manning that Denver hasn't had to worry about the QB situation.
