Overzealous fans looking for something to pin their woes on. You lost because your line is mediocre, your RBs suck, your TEs suck, your STs suck, Rod Smith is way past his prime, and your defense is getting thrashed in the running game.

Go ahead and think a 1st year rookie who played well in the pre-season is your savior.

Thank you very much for this :goodposting: .If anything, I'd like to see Cutler come in with at least a year of holding the clip board underneath his belt. Look at Romo, Rivers, & Palmer... Let Jake get through the season, playoffs or not, he should finish.

:goodposting: You know, after watching that game, I am done looking for blame or attempting to find solutions...Enter Cutler and a quick off-season....

fixed and :goodposting: You forgot to mention play calling. I think we miss Kubiak way more than anyone wants to admit.

There's a ton of reasons Denver is struggling offensively, and they won't be fixed with Cutler in the lineup. With that said though, Plummer has looked, well...off all year. I saw at least 5 or 6 passes in that game that were significantly enough off target to go incomplete (or get picked). He's still smart, and he's still a winner, but I think he's been looking over his shoulder a bit too much. his decision making is still GOOD, he just looks tight and uncomfortable.

The ONLY drive he looked good in in that game was the final one of the first half, when he was in a two minute drill with no time to think.

Plummer's still a quality QB, but he lost this team when they drafted Cutler, and that's a shame.

fixed.dude was a stud in Denver..

 
although i agree it is the RB, TE and the defense along with the playcalling.

let's face it, this team will not make a run at anything other than a lower draft pick with Plummer throwing balls behind WRs. Case in point, the Stephen Alexander INT. Yes, Alexander tipped it to cause the interception. Now most people will say, "Oh it was a tipped ball, not Plummer's fault." But the sad reality it is Plummer's fault , where was that ball thrown to. It was a good 1.5 yards behind Alexander. In the 4th quarter, when he rolled out and threw 20 yards to Stephen Alexander, where was the ball, short and to the right off our TV screens. Anybody that has watched all the games that Plummer has played this season and they will agree with me when I say that at least 50% of his completions have been the WRs adjusting themselves for the ball. Overthrows I can understand, underthrowing and missing targets are not acceptable as Broncos fans.

It's a pretty sad day when you miss Brian Griese, let alone miss Elway.

so with all of that said, if the Broncos realize that Plummer is not going to lead them anywhere this year, why not try it with Cutler. That gives him 5 games of live snaps this year along with maybe a playoff game to get some experience for next year.

the way I see it, if you leave Plummer in, this is a lost season. With Cutler coming in next year, it's probably a lost season again unless he pulls a Rothlesberger. If you play him now, you see what you got in Cutler in live game action, work with him in the offseason, design plays to his strengths, work on his weaknesses and have him come out firing in 2007.

I don't know if I'm right or wrong, but just one broncos fans opinion.
