Worst Ken Lucas Game As A Pro

This may have been mentioned, haven't read the thread yet, but the Broncos lost their starting RB...again. Peyton Hillis. So I forsee much passing from Cutler. We can put Gamble on Brandon Marshall, thankfully, and not Lucas. But we've gven up huge numbers to Rodgers and now Garcia. Sure, we won both games but we can't take this trend into the Playoffs. We game to tighten up the pass D. And Lucas...wow. Bad season, bub.

I cussed Lucas at the game last night but owe him a little bit of a apology after watching the highlights. On one play, he and Godfrey were in a combo coverage where Lucas had the short route and Godfrey should have had the deep route. Godfrey bit on the short and got burnt. The second was a simple cover two where Lucus had the short underneth zone and Godfrey had the deep zone. Godfrey bit on play action and got burnt. My frustration is now more with Godfrey than Lucas. He clearly made Lucas look bad last night.

I thought he got mugged on that PI call. Should have gone against the offense.

Yep, Bryant stiff-armed him and he got his feet tangled... that should have been a no-call or a offensive PI...

Maybe it was a make-up call for the Barber illegal contact against Smith 'cause he just touched him and although technically correct, they usually don't call that.

Lucas got burned last week at GB if I remember correctly...it just seems like the guy is starting to lose a step. I wouldn't be surprised if he is not here next year to save some cap room. He put in some good years but with a stud like Marshall waiting in the wings IDK why you would hold onto a contract like Lucas's (especially if it is backloaded). KL will probably get another small contract somewhere else as a nickel DB which is what he should be playing anyways...The only problem is that we don't have another good corner to come in and take Marshalls spot at nickel (unless CJ Wilson is that guy...) who knows

Lucas is still as solid corner and IMO he would be an above average nickel corner coming off the edge maybe on blitzes and stuff because he is still a good tackler. Marshall will get some more training camp this offseason and more offseason workouts to improve and hopefully he will be our starter opposite Gamble. He has too much big play ability not to mention insane speed to not be a starting DB next year...

    • As I said less than 10 minutes into the game, Boston looks nothing like we're used to seeing. Regardless, any curb-stomping of the Bruins is welcome.  The scorers all got the glory tonight, but all 6 D-men had excellent games. Across the board- Gost, Orlov, Chatty, Walker and, of course, Slavin & Burns.
    • I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense. 
    • No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.
