Mike & Mike + Stink gave their Broncos predictions about 5 minutes ago. Golic and Stink both said 11-5 this year. The other Mike said 9-7 based upon a "tough schedule". I'm surprised one Mike said 11-5, but I expected more from Stink...maybe 12-4. He did say they needed a better pass rush and had to blitz to make up for it. Very complimentary on the offense but said it was a "mid-range defense". These predictions are not usually worth their weight in crap but there ya go.

Greeny is stupid. He is the reason I hate that show. Golic doesnt realy bother me but I hate every word that comes out of that heifers (greeny's) mouth.

*UNLESS one is truly can see the future, these takes are of absolutely no consequence. Neither are our predictions to be honest. Strictly opinions. On the opinion side of the house, they carry whatever weight the source of the opinoin carries with you. Thats pretty much the jist of it...dman

"Greeny" is as east cost biased as they come: he predicted the Pats to go 11-5 or 12-4 next season. He's a huge Jets and Mets fan.
He also says "that's neither here nor there" so much(about 5 times a show) that sometimes I want to reach through the radio and strangle him.

It's funny how a few days ago they said eventhough last year Green Bay was like in the top 10 against the pass that stat shouldn't mean that much cause most of the opposition was up by a lot and just ran the ball and killed the clock. But today they say the Broncos give up a lot of passing yds and have no pass rush, however they don't say that a lot of times last year Denver was leading most of those games forcing teams to pass more.
I agree with pretty much everyone on here about Greenberg. He is horrible and comes across has never forming his own opinion but just go with what's hot at the moment or following the so called experts.

We are often underestimated at the national level. It is typical. I think the national prognosticators are in love with KC and SD, despite year over year they are both very inconsistant.
Greenie, loving the Jets, is pulling for Edwards and KC I am sure.
You would think that they might give us more credit. We have the best coach and organization in the division. We were 14-4 last year and have shown improvement from previous years at 11-6.

At least it's better than the 8-8 and 6-10 predictions Mike and Mike gave last year.

Ya beat me to it Herc! Greeny said last year we'd go 6-10...and then we proceeded to smach that prediction, by 7 games, going 13-3. Maybe since he said we'd finish 9-7, we'll go 16-0...wishful thinking. Nonetheless, let's just win the whole frickin' thing and rub it in Greeney's face in February!
Go Broncos!!

This is a good thing. I'm sure if employed correctly, it can be used to the broncos advantage..dman

I'd much rather go 19-0
But today they say the Broncos give up a lot of passing yds and have no pass rush, however they don't say that a lot of times last year Denver was leading most of those games forcing teams to pass more.
It's possible for both of these things to be true. In my opinion, they both are. The don't rush with your linemen strategy worked well all year--we controlled the run and played ahead for the most part. It fell apart in the AFC Championship.
It's going to be harder to make it work this year because Cowher has shown everyone else how to beat the scheme. That's why we are making changes this year.

I sometimes think that people from the east (Greeny), do not like the Broncos because of the loyal fan base and the fact that Shanahan has managed to keep this team very competitive year in and year out. One losing season. Greenies NY (a big homer who knows no impartiality) teams typically go in the tank about every other year (not the Yankees).
I know people don't like Dave Logan, but he is much better than Greeny.

Greeny shows his stupidity once again. He predicted the Bolts to go 11-5 and the Bucs to go 12-4.

Greeny's got a serious man crush on Pennington. Enough said.

I dont watch them I listen to them on the drive to work. I dont listen to music just sports radio and the other sports radio station talks about outdoors and golf during this time (which I am not interested in) so I am more or less forced.

I like the show personally. Green is a Jets homer but at least he is upfront about it, unlike a lot of guys that try to mask their loyalties only to look stupid over and over again.

Thanks for this post...
I am sure everyone thought people's opinions were held true on the field of the play in the future beforehand.

I personally love the show, they have great personalities and don't beat their chest claiming that nobody can be right but them.
Greeny is a Jets fan and gives them a bit more air time than they deserve, but he is the first to drag them through the mud when they deserve it.
Besides, Stink is on once a week and he is GREAT!

I like the fact that Green is a die hard fan and the Jets suck. I imagine the show might get a lot harder to take if the Jets were good and we had to list to Green crow about it. It's fun watching him suffer though. Kinda like Chef fan.

They're fun, but unfortunately we lost the affiliate here in DC, so we no longer get the show locally. I think you can still get it on the YES network (New York) on Direct TV.
"Big Mike" was a hoot with all his silly side 'manly' stories. "Little Mike" would screech and shriek about being a Metrosexual and getting in touch with his feminine side. Then he'd talk about 'Mother Golic.' Crazy goofballs.

Im sorry but Greenburg doesnt have a clue on anything. I do like Golic and Like when Mark comes on but just listening to his nonsence gets old.
