What Broncos Fans are Saying...

[Jeremy Igo]

Every week during the NFL season I bring to you viewpoints from the Carolina Panthers’ opposition. This week, what Broncos are saying about this Thursday night’s game against the Panthers.

On being home dogs to the Carolina Panthers

From Mile High Report:  “Despite being the reigning Super Bowl champions and coming off a two touchdown dominating performance over the Panthers in February, the Broncos must once again earn the respect they just can’t seem to get from anywhere outside of Denver.”

The problem here is that this Broncos team is very different from the Broncos team of February. Since then, they have experienced quite a bit of turnover to their starting units. Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak spoke spoke about that recently.

“”We are a different team. I can’t sit there and tell you the amount of turnover we had in our starters.” Kubiak said on a conference call Sunday. “I don’t even know. It’s probably somewhere in the seven or eight range, somewhere in there, then obviously the quarterback position. You know what, there was going to be change. We have changes on our defensive front. We’ve got some changes on our offensive line. So like I said, this is a new season. It’s got to go find its identity and you’ve got 16 opportunities to do that. This is the first one this week so we’ll just try to stay focused on that” Kubiak added.

In short, you cannot simply take away 9 starters from a team and expect the same product to take the field. Especially so when one of those starters is the quarterback. The truth is no one has any clue on how the Denver Broncos will perform this year. There is a chance they could be better, but an even greater chance that they will regress.

ON BEATING THE CAROLINA PANTHERS THURSDAY NIGHT

Denver Broncos fans know their entire season hinges on second year player Trevor Siemian. Although Siemian has looked good this preseason, there is still so much for him to prove.

A fan comment underneath this article made me smile. “Our qb sh*t the bed against them last time and we still beat the hell out of them. Score was closer than the game ever was. We beat them going away if simmy looks even half way capable.”

I don’t seem to remember the Broncos “beating the hell out of” the Panthers. Considering the amount of needless turnovers the Carolina Panthers gave away in the Superbowl, I would lean more towards the Panthers beating the sh*t out of themselves. They picked a terrible day to play their worst game of the year. Perhaps the stage was just too big for the Panthers. But that was last year, time to move on.

I really have no words for the video.  I didn't know they sold alcoholic Orange Crush.  I'll have to try it.

F*ck Broncos fans.

I see they have been having their brownies again.

They will need more for medicinal purposes after the pain they get Thursday.

It appears Panthers fans arent the only ones who haven't watched the SB since was played.

FWIW my wife drinks it.  It's not overly sweet like I was expecting. Not bad.

I really believe the Panthers had their worst game of the season in the Super Bowl. Some of it was the Broncos defense but most of it was on the Panthers. They rarely dropped passes and fumbled yet did both. The special teams mental error where they thought the Bronco called for a fair catch but didn't which set up a FG. Panthers outgained them significantly. If last year Broncos played the Panthers 5 times they would have lost 4 of them (assuming an impartial referee crew).

I fully expect the Panthers to win Thursday.

While Von Miller got all the praise, they seem to dismiss the main cog in their defense that allowed Miller to get those sacks and that pressure.... the push up the middle by Jackson. He will be missed more than their fans will want to admit.

[SurfNTurf]

Local sports radio guys watched the Panthers vs. Patriots third preseason game and have been downplaying Carolina ever since. One quote that sticks out: "They aren't the worldbeaters everyone thinks they are." I get that they have to pander to the fanbase for ratings, but ffs...

As far as the average fan, it's nearly impossible to have an even-keeled conversation about football with them. They only have two arguments: (1) VON MILLER!!!11!!!1 and (2) Cam is a douchebag.

[ScreenPlay]

Hopefully Shula smarten up for this game to give Remmers some help vs Von. Also Cam really hurt them in the SB when he tucked and scrambled. Hopefully he will adjust too. 

 

 

Offensive I think they will be stagnate as hell. Peyton played like trash but he still got them in to the right plays. He just couldn't make the plays. No way in hell this new kid can make the adjustments to out play our D. 

 

God i I hope we beat the brakes off them.

[pantherclaw]

Our team can beat anybody, including themselves. The Superbowl was that perfect example. 

Make no mistake, it's not easy playing in Denver. 

The Panthers will need to get an early lead, to keep the game in our favor.
