Three losses in a row?  I don't want to sound reactionary or like a sore loser,but what can the Broncos do to turn things around?  Is it time to turn to the future and give the Q.B. reins to Tom Brandstater?  How about the Defense?  It's obvious that without the upfront pressure against oppossing Q.B's this secondary is very very slow...  What happened to the creative blitzing we were doing earlier in the year?  Is it so hard to stop runningbacks nowadays?  The "Team" is in a downward spiral and it's up to this coaching staff to figure it out and in a hurry…

Give Chris Simms A Shot!!!
By Woody PaigeThe Denver Post Posted: 11/11/2009 01:00:00 AM MST
All we are saying is give Simms a chance.
To give themselves a jump-start, the Broncos should give Chris Simms the start against Washington on Sunday.
The last time we saw Simms, in the first two exhibitions, he was completing 16-of-24 passes for 186 yards and two touchdowns, without an interception, and looking sharp, more like a starter than the other quarterback. Then Simms sprained an ankle and hasn't played since.
Change would be good for the Broncos' soul-searching.
Kyle Orton hasn't…

I must admit that I was one of the harshest critics of the "new" look Broncos!  Specially the coach, Josh MacDaniels has proven me and every other doubter wrong for five straight weeks.  I was also on the side that said that Kyle Orton was a bum and had no right starting for the Denver Broncos!  I love the way Josh MacDaniels is so passionate about the game and is so critical of the mistakes made by his own players.  As, for Kyle Orton?  I owe him a big apology for not seeing his skills and for not believing in him.  I now know that Kyle is the perfect fit…

Just thinking outloud here, but I'd rather have 80% Orton than 100% Simms.
That's good to hear about Moreno. But, I am worried about Orton. I'm praying we have him back Sunday, he's questionable right now, hopefully he recovers quick but you never know with ankle sprains.
I think Ty Law was a BAD signing, he just seems out of place I liked the young guys we HAD out there before. Really think that is why we are getting picked apart in the passing game.... also I think that the D line needs a big NT that can stuff the run, without that you can NOT have an elite 3-4.

Not time to panic yet, BUT a couple of MUST win games with SD coming to town sunday and the Giants on Thanksgiving.

One other note, something good at least, Moreno looked GREAT Sunday, I think we have a good one with this kid. Makes great cuts and sees the field VERY well.

i didn't see the second half,but Orton was playing pretty good until he got hurt! The secondary suddenly looks very old and unable to keep up with faster receivers!! The Defense did not pressure the Q.B. at all and special teams suck still...
1. Thank God McDaniels FINALLY let Orton throw the damn ball. And just our luck he gets hurt. Bull ****.

2. How the heck is Simms still in the NFL. Right after this game i would cut his ass. 3-13, 13 yards and an INT. Orton and Simms were competing at the beginning of the season? Very hard to believe.

3. Anyone who actually saw the game, please tell me what's going on with our defense. 100 yards for Betts, seriously? And has Champ Bailey lost a step? Please fill me in on our defense.
Ok Orton threw the ball downfield very well.... And I think we can put any start simms talk to rest... Awful

What I saw in that Monday Night game is what i've been saying all along and Steve Young finally said it on National T.V. The Broncos NEVER throw it down the field. They even showed a stat during the game where Ortons completions were. He was 0/0 down field. When I followed the first game and the game against the Ravens on NFL.com and it kept saying Orton 3 yard pass completion or Orton incomplete short left, its like just throw the **** ball. Is it a confidence issue? Or did Josh just not bring in the right QB, because believe me, if he's not gonna throw it down field, EVERY team will catch on to us. No more run, run, pass offense anymore. Shake things up, throw down field, pass in your own territory for once, and dont throw screens every play. not that hard.
