Good Thing The Patriots Cut Ty Warren



"An MRI has revealed that Denver Broncos defensive tackle Ty Warren has suffered a tear in his triceps muscle. Though such an injury is generally viewed as season-ending, the Broncos are debating their options and have not given up hope that the veteran could play at some point in 2011 (ESPN)."



Wow, that really sucks for the Broncos as Warren really was one of their biggest pickups. I was surprised when the Patriots cut him, but I guess it freed up some money, and the Patriots were concerned about how he would bounce back from being out all last year. Anyways, it was a good thing the Patriots didn't keep him as that would've been a lot of dead money sitting around with him on the IR.

NFL Preview: Denver Broncos



2010 Record: 4-12



Offense:



If there was a bright spot for the Broncos last year it was their passing attack. Kyle Orton passed for 3,653 yards and 20 touchdowns and wide receiver Brandon Lloyd had 1,448 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns. Problem is that was about it. Moreno was a let down gaining under 800 yards. I think Moreno could have a little better season in his 2nd year, but I also don't think he is anything special. The question for the Broncos is whether they start Tebow or Orton. They have decide on Orton, but you have to wonder for how long. So far Fox doesn't seem to be a Tebow fan, but after this team spent a first round pick on the kid doesn't he get a shot? Orton is very solid, but he is not going to fix this team.



Defense:



Wow, was this group horrible last year. At one point they gave up 59 points to the Oakland Raiders... Yikes. I like that they picked up Von Miller, but this group is far from improved. Dawkins is another year older and so is Champ Bailey. The Broncos were the worst defense in the league last year, ranking 25th against the pass and 31st against the run. With Dumervil coming back and Miller they should have an improved pass rush, but with so many young players just learning the system at important spots on defense I think it could be another long year for this unit.



Overall:



The Broncos have a very hard schedule this year having to play the Jets, Patriots, Packers for their out of conference schedule. Thus, I don't see anyway this team improves much from last year.

Around The NFL


Ronnie Brown joined the dream team for a 1 year deal.

Ronnie is a perfect complement to Leshon McCoy, Ronnie has been outstanding for the 1st half of the year and then fizzles out. So maybe backing up McCoy for the tough yards, will make things easier for Brown/ Vick and McCoy. They could also throw in some trick plays as well.

Zach Miller to the Seahawks.

A source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter it is a five-year, $34 million deal with $17 million guaranteed. Miller will be a great safety blanket for whoever the Seahwaks QB is. But I don't know why the Raiders had this guy slip through their fingers. Jason Campbell just lost a huge target.

Ty Warren joins Broncos

Apparently he wasn't interested in re-signing with the Patriots. The Broncos signed Ty to a 2 year, 10 million dollar deal. This is a good deal for a bad defensive front. Low risk.

David Harris re-signs a 4 year deal with the Jets

This is a smart move for the Jets because at the end of the day, Harris could be their best defender.

Tommie Harris signs with Colts
Great move here, the Colts defense is as soft as a pillow, Harris brings some toughness to a finesse defense.

Tim Tebow Wants Me To Hate Him


Tim Tebow is having his memoir come out called "Through My Eyes". I hated Tebow in college, then I kinda liked him because he got so much shit before being drafted that I thought I'd be cool if he actually made it. Ten he did a stupid Super Bowl commercial, and now this...

"And throughout Through My Eyes, Tebow's book now in stores, is the bone-deep religious side of the evangelical young player who writes Bible verses beneath the play codes on his wristbands, just as he once inscribed them in his eye black for his college games.

The book, written with co-author Nathan Whitaker, starts each chapter with a Bible verse and is laced with as much with "glory to God" as it is with pages of grit-and-grunt details of Tebow's trademark punishing workouts. He trains relentlessly, determined to confound everyone who has questioned whether he can make it as a quarterback in the NFL (USA Today)."

First off how the hell do you right a memoir when you haven't done shit in the NFL. If it was just about his college days then fine, but that should still be done after your career is over. Tebow isn't even the starting QB on a very average football team.

Then there is all this God stuff. I don't mind that people are religious, but when you throw it in everyone face it drives me crazy. It's basically like anything else, I don't mind vegetarians, but if you preach to me about how I should feel sorry for animals then I hate you. I don't mind conservatives, but if you preach to me about how I'm wrong and everything sucks unless your Republican, then I hate (looking at you Mr. Callahan). Well the same goes for this God stuff, and I'm sick of it. I get Mr. Tebow you love Jesus. Sweet, now go learn how to throw a spiral and shut the fuck up.

With The 2nd Pick In The NFL Draft The Denver Broncos Select....

Von Miller LB Texas A&M

Love it, Love it, Love it. This kid wears a visor like a motherfucker. Him along with DJ Williams and Elvis Dumerville will make an extremely quick DE, LB core. Miller is going to be very good and will be the defensive rookie of the year.
