to the Rams four days ago is that the Broncos have a chance to erase that one sooner rather than later with a Thursday Night Football win over the Cardinals tonight.But will they?Returning to the Ultimate Fan Guide http://www.broncoscheapauthenticstore.com/ronald-leary-jersey-cheap , draco1986 believes they will. Whether he’s buying the trash talk from Von Miller, selling the doom and gloom from much of Broncos Country or just hoping the Broncos can pull it together against what should be an inferior team, we don’t much care. The point is that the Broncos should be able to win this one in spite of bad coaching just by running the ball, stopping the run and not getting boneheaded penalties. Is that too much to ask? We don’t think so.Week 7: Broncos at CardinalsMHR - Talking about this team feels like a constant nature v. nurture debate - is it coaches or is it players? Is it scheme or is it performance? But the answer is always “both.” So what responsibility of this mess is Vance Joseph’s, what is John Elway’s? And how do we fix it long-term?draco1986:I think Vance shoulders more of the blame at this point. John puts the team together, and while it hasn’t always been perfect, this team has a lot of talent. But Vance is the one that has to utilize it to its potential. And so far, I dont think he’s done that. A lot of it I think comes down on the offensive staff failing to put together a game plan that takes advantage of the talents. If the offense is more consistent, it’s going to improve the defense. MHR - The Cardinals are 1-5, have coaches on the hot seat, and are playing at home. The Broncos are 2-4, have coaches on the hot seat and are playing on the road as 2.5-point favorites from Vegas. Do you agree they have the advantage here?draco1986: I think so. It’s a short road week and that always makes things especially difficult. But this team has talent, and they’ve competed against likely the two best teams in the league. Von is showing some fire, which I think this team needs from him. MHR - 58 offensive plays. 41 passes (60% completion rate). 17 rushes (5.3 ypc, 1st in NFL). What gives???draco1986: I defended the ratio against KC because I thought the situational choices demanded it, with the amount of two-minute offense we ran. This past week though, I think Keenum and Musgrave out-thought themselves. The Rams brought men down into the box and challenged Denver to throw on them, and it didn’t work on enough plays. Case has to hit throws to punish teams when they do that. MHR - We know Case Keenum is better in play action and our running backs can get the yards. But the Cardinals secondary gave up a ton of yards to Vikings receivers last week. How would you game plan our offense this week?draco1986: I think you have to establish a running game early. The Cardinals rank 14th in DVOA against it, and it’s a spot the offense can exploit to help protect a re-worked offensive line. The passing game should feature a lot of quick-hitting plays and Jeff Heuerman over the middle, two other places Arizona has struggled this year. Keeping the passing game quick should again help the line against some good pass rushers, and let Case just play instead of overthinking.MHR - Among the bright spots this season have been the rookies, four of whom are regularly contributing - Courtland Sutton, Royce Freeman, Phillip Lindsay and Bradley Chubb. What kind of hope does it give you to have these young guys showing great stuff already? draco1986: It first gives hope that our ability to evaluate college talent and make the right choices on draft day is trending in the right direction. And secondly it gives hope that this team has a lot of talent on it Cheap Von Miller Jersey , and when things get going it’s going to be scary.MHR - WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS DEFENSE???draco1986: One of the biggest issues I’ve seen this year has been misplays by the safeties. The scheme we have relies on them to be active and make plays in the run game and the passing game. Justin Simmons and Darian Stewart have not been able to do that so far. There also has not been consistent play from Todd Davis or Brandon Marshall so far, and those guys have to step up. Lastly, the coverage calls continue to not help out our secondary and take some pressure off by letting them play more press - so guys aren’t getting a free release 10 yards down the field. MHR - Of the Cardinals, Von Miller said the Broncos were “going to kick their asses.” Do you believe him? And how does the Broncos D actually do that?draco1986: This is the most fired up I think I’ve seen Von in years, and I think it’s needed. The defense has the talent, the guys just have to make plays.MHR - Although David Johnson has been underwhelming this season as the Cardinals hot shot RB, the Broncos have found a way the last two weeks to give opposing running backs their career-highs in yardage. If you were Joe Woods, how would you scheme the defense to account for Larry Fitzgerald and rookie Christian Kirk but not give up huge yardage to Johnson?draco1986: I think Denver has to stay in their base look a lot this week. Running nickel has been bad overall, and part of it is the desire to bring in an extra rusher like Ray or Barrett. We need to keep the big men on the field though to lock down the opposing line from getting to the second level. Play more press man and take away any quick throws Rosen would have and help give the pass rush time to get home against a Cardinals line that ranks 18th in adjusted sack rate.MHR - Bradley Chubb had a three-sack game last week. Do you expect him to build on that this week facing a beat-up O-Line and a rookie QB? How can the combo of Von and Chubb wreak havoc?draco1986: I think it’s a great start for him. Like I said above, I think the Cardinals’ line is vulnerable to a good pass rush. Let these guys get after it. I will say I’d like both of them to be disciplined in their rush so they don’t create big lanes for either Rosen to escape or for there to be some delayed runs. But the opportunities will be there I think.MHR - Which players will be playmakers for the Broncos this week (one on offense, one on defense)? draco1986: I think Phillip Lindsay makes a big splash this week. The Cards have given up some big plays to running backs, and Lindsay is explosive enough to take advantage of any opening. On defense this week its going to be Von. He made the statement, and he’s paid to be the playmaker. I think he steps it up this week.MHR - It seems waaaaaaay too early in the season to be talking about coaching changes, QB changes and whether to do either now or later. Where do you stand on these issuesdraco1986: I think it is too early. We’ve played some tough teams, and I think we had a let down game in New York. A win this week puts us back on the path and gives us 10 days to find a way to win in KC. I think a loss though does make the question come to the forefront. I’m not big on firing a coach midseason except in the case of malfeasance. The coaches you would want to bring in aren’t available anyways, and Joseph still seems to be well liked by the players. As for Case, if we drop this game in Arizona I think you almost have to see if Chad Kelly is a guy you want to try and develop,MHR - What are you hoping to see out of the Broncos on Thursday night?draco1986: A team that is fired up and focused. A team that comes out and fights for the whole 60 minutes and puts a boot down on a team that is not as talented as they are.PredictionsThe Favorites:How did you become a Broncos fan?I’m a lifer. The family has been fans as long as I can remember. As things stand today, the Denver Broncos are in line to receive the 8th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. The process of earning a draft pick that high up sucks, but a smart franchise can capitalize on the opportunity and land a player who will become a long term cornerstone of the franchise. See: Miller, Von.So what might the Broncos do with the premier picks that appears to be in their future?The most obvious answer has to be: get a quarterback. But it may not be the right one. The prospective QB1, Oregon’s Justin Herbert, may not even declare this year. But even if he does, the Giants (and potentially the Raiders Cheap Matt Paradis Jersey , depending on just how twitchy Gruden’s trigger finger gets) stand squarely in the Broncos’ way of acquiring him. And the QBs behind him aren’t the most inspiring group.With that in mind, you have to wonder if the Broncos should play a longer game. Maybe the right move could be trading back with a team like Miami or Tampa Bay, collecting their 2019 1st & 2nd rounders in the bargain, and planning to offer up multiple 1sts to make a move for our QB of choice in 2020, That sounds drastic until you consider that the 5 teams who took a step that bold in 2015 & 2016, the Rams, Chiefs, Eagles, Texans, & Bears, sport a combined record of 31-12at this point in the season. None of them are worse than .500, and 4 of the 5 are currently winning their divisions. And the one team in that group that’s at .500, the Eagles, are the defending Super Bowl champions.I’m not saying the Broncos will definitely go this route, but if they do- don’t be mad. It’s got a pretty nice track record lately, and if we can’t beat ‘em (and we can’t), then maybe we should join them. But if the Broncos don’t do something bold like that, here are some guys who may find themselves on stage next spring holding an orange & blue jersey:Offensive Tackle Jonah Williams, AlabamaWilliams is the premier offensive tackle in a pretty decent class. With Jared Veldheer set to be a free agent this offseason, if the Broncos don’t re-sign him I could definitely see the team seeing Williams as a great option. The four year starter at Alabama would most likely step in immediately at left tackle, allowing the Broncos to move Garett Bolles over to right tackle. Things would suddenly get much more comfortable in the pocket for the Broncos’ quarterback(s).Defensive Lineman Rashan Gary, MichiganIt’d be a little surprising if the Broncos dedicated back-to-back top 10 picks to the front seven, but the idea does have its appeal. Gary would provide an additional interior threat that might remind Broncos fans pleasantly of Malik Jackson. And we all know exactly how devastating that kind of player can be in combination with two elite edge rushers. Gary would help ensure that the Broncos’ defense would remain one of the most physical and intimidating units in the NFL.Cornerback Greedy Williams, LSUThe overall CB class is not the best Cheap Bradley Chubb Jersey , but that doesn’t prevent the top candidate from being excellent. If there’s an Aqib Talib in the 2019 Draft, it’s Greedy Williams. And since an Aqib Talib is what the Broncos’ secondary very, very obviously needs, this pick would be a slam-dunk. A starting CB trio consisting of Chris Harris, Greedy Williams, & Isaac Yiadom could be a very difficult unit for QBs to throw against. Combine that with the best pair of edge rushers in the NFL in Von Miller & Bradley Chubb and, well, you’d probably get something that looks suspiciously like the 2015 Broncos defense.Offensive Tackle Greg Little, Ole MissThe Bills will very likely pick before the Broncos, and should be well motivated to take Jonah Williams to bolster the NFL’s worst offensive line. If they do that, the Broncos might also consider Greg Little. He’s likely to be right up there with William as a prospect, though he might not be quite as strong of a candidate to immediately push Bolles out of the left side of the line. The Big 4My mentor has a saying that I’ve become fond of: Keep the main thing the main thing.That’s what John Elway needs to do when the draft finally gets here. He’s gone on record before, stating that the four positions he considers to be most important to a franchise’s success are quarterback, edge rusher, left offensive tackle, and cornerback. And his 1st round draft selections have consistently fallen in line with that priority. Elway keep the main thing the main thing, and he’ll do that again in the next draft.So if there’s a quarterback there that the Broncos are convinced can be The Guy, you can be sure Elway will go that route. But there likely won’t be such a QB for Denver until 2020. If that’s so, then expect Elway to remain consistent and seek to either replenish the cornerback group, upgrade at left tackle, or find the final destructive piece of the pass rush puzzle.I’ve got my fingers crossed for Greedy Williams, personally.Horse TracksWhy is Nathan Peterman still a starting quarterback? - SBNation.comBlack QBs aren’t given the same opportunities as white QBs.
