Wow…the Broncos will now be referred to only as the Donkeys.  What a bunch of jack asses.

a twisted heap of failure

What started as so promising a season, 6-0 seems like it was years ago.  The Donkeys began the season on an absolute tear, with strong defense and flawless offense as the foundation to a new winning tradition.  The Joshy McD era started with a huge bang.

At week five, the Donkeys were leading the Chargers by three games.  San Diego stood at 2-3, with losses to some soft teams.  I was bold enough to make a prediction that the Donkeys would win the AFC West and win at least a playoff game. By the way, if I make a sports prediction, don’t listen to me (well, except when it comes to the Red Wings because their suck is blatantly apparent).  Boy, was I wrong… I shoulda stuck with my .500 prediction.

Two years in a row, the Broncos had a multi-game lead in the running for a playoff spot.  A single win in the final three or four games would have sealed the deal.  Alas, the last time the Broncos won in week 15, 16, or 17 is December 2007.

I still agree with the Cutler trade.  And I support the coach in sitting players that do not put team first.  I think the defense needs to plug a few spots, but was at least decent throughout the year.  I’m looking at the O-line… the running game went to shit after the bye week.  The pass protection started to break down way too often.  Kyle Orton was under way too much pressure to avoid getting clobbered.

So…for the playoffs, I don’t have any favorites.  I do have one request…someone, anyone, knock off the Chargers.  I cannot stand Philip Rivers and his punk ass…
