Let's hope they do this.

Darnold is gahbage.

Tough to look good on a terrible team who’s tanking
Crowder is a decent slot WR, but the rest of their pass catchers are mediocre & they don’t have much of a running game at all either

Wouldn’t surprise me if he & Rosen still become good players if they can get into better situations

Analytics tend to agree.

However the last time I wrote a young QB off on this website he improved his completion percentage by almost 12% and just won his team a division championship for the first time in 25 years.

Hopefully I’m just as wrong about Drew Lock because I’m sure Elway is going to give him a 3rd year.

No, he just sucks, real bad. Name me a good QB from USC other than Carson Palmer.

Sure, but Allen showed flashes. Darnold has not. He's seen ghosts.

Me personally ?

I’d trade for Stafford if the rumours are true and the Lions may move on from him.

My pops is Lions fan, born in Windsor Ontario. I have watched a ton of Stafford over the course of his career and think higher of him then others.

Lions have surrounded Stafford as well as the Texans surrounded Watson this year.

What I think happens is they go into the season with Lock but I’m hoping they bring in Fitzpatrick as a contingency plan because if Lock falters again they have someone who can step in and win games right away. The Broncos roster, when healthy of course not the crap they threw out there on Sunday, is playoff caliber if the QB doesn’t shoot them in the foot like Lock has this year.

I think Darnold has in spurts.

They won like a lot to end last year and he was ok.

I hope the Bills bring in Fitz to backup Allen....
But Denver is one of the few teams he hasn’t played for yet, so u guys probably have the advantage there 😂😂😂

Agree about Stafford. He’s a quality QB
And with the weapons u guy have there, he could be what you’re missing
Can u fit him with the Cap going down though?
And what do u have to give up for him?

Would probably have to let Von walk. Would also probably have to move our first rounder + to get Stafford.

Which is why I think they stick with Lock ultimately.

Is Von a free agent?
Bills could use a pass rusher like that!

He has one year left at $18M but the Broncos can release him with no dead cap space.

Von would be a perfect fit with the Bills tbh with you.

He’s one that I hope retires in Denver but I understand the business behind it.

You should. He can't stay healthy.

Denver should absolutely go for Stafford - A 3-way trade would be a nice move. Stafford for Von Miller + and then Detroit flips Miller + to a team like the Jets or Jaguars for Darnold/Minshew depending on where they finish and who gets the top pick or a team like San Fran or Philly for Garoppolo/Wentz.

I left Fant on my bench.


I'm probably going to lose unless both Eric Ebron and Tee Higgins have career nights.

Yup and it worked out great. I don’t see the issue at all.

4 of 8 people work remote

3 work in a medical field where they are tested and wear extensive gear to keep them safe

1 unemployed.

And all are couples.

Someone in the group was sick on a Wednesday and tested negative. The couple stayed away for 2 weeks games wise.

So I am not sure how much better people we can handle covid without being completely anti social.

It sucks. I have the best team in my big money league (maybe the best team I’ve ever had) and got rolled by pure luck.

The guy I faced, made an LA King playoff run with Henry. Kyler. Montgomery (last few weeks has been great) Chubb and kelce.
