Default The Official Preseason Game 2 Discussion: Tennessee Titans at Denver Broncos (M)

Here we go...

I'm interested in seeing the matchup with Cutler vs. VY of course...also whether M. Bell bounces back strong, how Scheffler plays, Dumerville's ability to supply a rush...the battle for the #3 WR spot...maybe whether Len Dale White spits on anyone as well.

16 hours and counting...READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?

I would love to see the run game get on track. I want to see somebody step up and take control. It also wouldn't hurt to see Plummer develope some rythem with Javon and Rod.

It would be nice to see some sacks in this game led by Kenard Lang and Elvis. Turnovers would be great too. I think Vince is going to hang a few out there. We should be able to generate some heat against this O-Line and cause some pressure.

The front seven will have to be on their A-game because the Titans do have the ability to run the rock a little bit if they get going.

It a night game repeated Midnight in the East on NFL network. The Sox better win today because the last night pitching performances was a disaster. I got so hack off I actually threw the remote at the wall. God we miss Tek.

Im hoping for Mike Bell gets some more carries. Last week he only had like 6 or seven carries. So, I'm hoping the gets the ball more, and see if he bounces back from the fumble and see what kind of performance he puts up trying to redeem himself. Then Im looking at the pass rush, and tackling. Those are the three most important things that I want to see.

Then I want to see jake and cutler trowing to rod and javon. or will rod and javon be in when jay is playing? hmm. I would still like to see it.

Also, I'm looking forward to see scheff, and kircus again. Those guys looked great last week.

I can't forget, I want to see the competition for that third wr slot. Watts looked good last week, lets see if he could look good again.

I just can't wait to watch the game. So many things to see. I just love watching the Broncos.

Watts will not be playing today so Shanny can get a good look at the other guys. Guess Watts has shown enough for the coaching staff to feel comfortable enough with him as our #3.

Shanny use to cut guys early that he felt may have a chance to catch on with another team, but I wonder with Lelie still needing to be traded if he holds on to a couple WRs jsut to keep them from being claimed.

Edit: When I say #3 WR I do not think it is going to be a pure #3 job, as I see Marshall and Kircus, who both have skills in the redzone, getting in there depending on situation.

I am looking forward to BVP coming in for the last couple of drives and scoring on both just to stir up more s*** on this board.

Things I am looking forward to:

1. Mike Bell - In Denver, the run game rules. Our season depends on this kid.

2. Javon Walker - He's our #1 WR. Is he in game shape?

3. Jay Cutler - just because he's fun to watch. The chance of him making an impact on the season is small, so I'll watch while I can.

4. Vince Young - The guy was the Micheal Jordan of college football. He's the most intriguing prospect to hit the NFL in a long time. Can anyone take over an NFL game like he did in the NCAA's?

5. Dumervil and Lang - the D Line severely needs an upgrade. Can these guys help provide the pressure needed?

Also,

I am a fully paid member on the Jay Cutler bandwagon, but try and remember the kid is going to make some mistakes along the way. I will be ticked if he throws a few INTs tonight and then everyone has a conniption. He is going to have some ups and downs and he is going to make some mistakes. He is going to force the ball at times and he will pay for it with some INTs.

I think that Bronconation is already brimming with homer apologists ready to defend even the worst outing by Cutler. He makes them dream of the Duke again.

I wouldnt expect too much criticism.

I think Young will have a run of 20 or more yards sometime in the contest. Just a hunch.

Top 5 things im looking for:

5. Can the Dline get pressure from the front four, and still keep VY contained in the pocket?

4. Can Mike Bell run wild without worry of fumbling?

3. Will Javon look like the #1 reciever we hope he is?

2. Can Cutler keep the hot hand at home and bring some oohs and ahhs to the Mile High Faithful?

1. My seat. This is my first set of season tickets!!!

I have it airing at midnight as well and not 9 est. I am looking for a lot of things since the starters will be playing a decent amount. The one main thing I am not hoping I see is a major injury. Just everyone stay healthy.

I would be able to see it live...except wife and friends want to go to the county fair....If it were regular season that's a definite...AH NOOOO!.

but since its preseason I'll be fair and record it and be a husband for a few more weekends...

Plummer and the O get 20 Plays then the hook according to Shanahan.
Probably a few will get another series or two, then its the FUTURE and the second teamers for 1 1-2 qtrs... The BVP gets to try to attone with the rest of the 3rd stringers.

Since Tennessee has a fairly good running game, and Vince Young is a scrambler (which , remember, is what kept the defense on the field LAST week) I hope our Defense does better on 3rd downs. If we don't fix THAT problem we won't be going anywhere after the regular season ends, except home.

There is a lot to look forward to tonight. Will the D show up, and tackle. Can Cutler improve on his game last week? Has Steve Antonopulos already healed Brandon Marshall with an ancient Greek Gypsy potion?

I have an issue with some of you people. I won't name any names. I don't get to see the game live. I am relegated to watching the NFL network broadcast. Last week I popped into the chatroom that I believe Pez set up, and some of you people ruined it for me, by actually talking about what was happening live. I don't want that to happen again...so to that end I am demanding that there be absolutely NO TYPING from 5pm Pacific until 9pm Pacific (when the game will air here.)

Thank You.
