Van Pelt: No Significance in Running With Second Team

http://www.denverbroncos.com/page.php?id=334&storyID=4391

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For the second straight day, Bradlee Van Pelt closed out the morning practice by running the second-team offense in the daily "move-the-ball" drills that simulate game-action possessions.

Same old, same old! Edgerrin not happy with preseason. Still no noticible improvement on defense. Mike Vanderjagt mocks another kicker solely drafted for kickoffs. (That's 7 who have tried to since Vandie became the FG kicker.) Hopefully, that means nothing against the Pats, but this is the 4th straight year the Colts have returned to the same old script. And it doesn't forbode well again this year in Foxboro. (I still say Pittsburgh will be a must game, because we haven't done squat against them in the past on their turf. So we have them in the Dome now.  :-\\)

there was the playoff game the refs stole from us, a line judge can't see kordel step out of the endzone but on the hail mary pass at the end of the game they can see through a mass of players and notice the ball was dropped

I looking foward to the season with the New York Jets but questions about Chad Pennington's arm concern me in training camp. Words is in training he is under throwing the deep ball. That worries me alot. The front seven defensively is among the best in the NFL with John Abarham, Shaun Ellis. Backups like DE James Reed and the improvement of Backup DE Bryan Thomas last year are good and provide the defense with depth. LB Jonathan Vilma showed alot last year in his rookie year. In the secondary there is still no shout down corner. CB David Barett is inconsistent. Rookie Justin Miller has shown promise in camp to win a starting spot in the secondary. The retirement of CB Donnie Abarham hurts. Offensively the pick-up of Laverneous Coles should only help. Pennington worked well with Coles in the 02-03 season. RB Curtis Martin is still a great running back at age 31(I think.) WR Justin McCrainens is a good compliment to Coles. Another worry fpr the Jets is the schedule: 2 games with New England. They have to play Carolina, San Diego, Oakland Raiders, Carolina, and Atlanta. With the tough schedule anywhere from 8-8 to 9-7 maybe. Maybe 9-7 can make it to the playoffs in the AFC. Still they don't play Indianapoilis or Pittsburgh this year. They have struggled against those teams in the past.

Well, we got Drew Bledsoe...  which I think is an upgrade from Vinny Testaverde but I would really have prefered Quincy Carter... (damn-weed!)

We still have Keyshawn Johnson and a few low profile but good offensive players that have been with us for a few years...

Defensive line-up doesn't look too familiar.. Dat Nguyen is still there, thank god!

Looks like Emmitt Smith has signed on just long enough to retire a Cowboy, which I am happy to see!!

If we were to lose in the first round of the playoffs for the third season in a row to them, I'll be quite upset. I'm thinking the Broncos will do fairly well. Hopefully this season Plummer will throw a few less interceptions and also that we can get a solid running game.

I'll be upset if when we don't, the media starts talking about getting rid of Shanahan again! I do NOT understand how Miami's Don Shula was considered such a great coach and yet Shanahan is always on the hot seat. Okay, Shula won back to back Super Bowls in the 70's and lost two in the 80's...sure, Miami went undefeated in '72-'73 BUT it was revealed a few years ago that the schedule they went through was among the easiest in league history!! Denver won 18 straight games and back to back titles since Mike's been here!  Anyway....Go Broncos! ;)

We lost 13-11.  And the funny part is we didn't even get a first down when the starters were out... once we put in the second string players, we picked up big time, even though Arizona still had their starter defense in.  We had a ridiculous amount of stupid false start penalties which in essence cost us the game.

But it was worth watching it, just to laugh at the sheer confusion among the referees and the announcers...  like the announcers said, it's pre-season for them too!! :)

They got rid of a Moss (arguably the most talented receiver in the league, but a huge distraction). And finally made some much needed improvements on defense. i'm looking forward to seeing Culpepper prove to the critics that his success wasn't only because of Moss.

What amazes me about Daunte Culpepper is you never even heard about him last year. All I hear about was Peyton Manning Manning. I saw the stat in that the Viking's playoff game with the Packers with the Packers last year that Culpepper threw 39 TD's to 11 INT's in the 04 regular season. The guy is underrated. I even hear more about Donavan McNabb than I do about Culpepper. McNabb is a good quarterback and Peyton is great but Culpepper deserves more props in the media than he gets.

That's very true...he is a class act. The only problem I USED to have with him was....palying after his prime just so he could break Walter Payton's record..Barry Sanders was probably more deserving but he...well, you know.

:P  Yeah the 5 time superbowl champs is the wrong uniform, huh?

Hey speaking of "holier than thou" attitudes, have you seen dion sanders?  I dont know where he went, last I knew he was playing with Baltimore (i think) last season and I havent seen him this season. did he retire (again)? 
I think he signed on with the Ravens again....not sure though, and YES I know all about the "Rings"....remember? I "showed" you what they looked like ;D ;)

Yeah, I know... I just thought you might have forgotten. ;D

I do keep seeing former Dallas players scattered around the league...  I'm still really disappointed about Parcells getting rid of Quincy Carter... I thought he had alot of potential... taking them to the playoffs his first year as a starter... so he went to the Jets and we got stuck with their leftovers and had a sh!tty season last year...

Me....forget ??? ;D ;) Yeah, I was suprised as well, Carter seemed to have the talent. Bledsoe now has another chance to prove himself though....see YOU on Thanksgiving Day! I hope I get to eat the turkey and YOU eat the crow :D

I'm on the fence as far as Emmitt goes...i mean, he could gain 500 yards a season and play for another 5 years...but I do not think he was the best RB ever....good but not the best ever :-\\ That should be how he retires though....as a Cowboy :)
Not a Cowboys fan here,but I think TONY DORSETT was one h*ll of a running back during his career with Dallas!

Deion Sanders is nowhere near 'all that'...and honestly never was.

Ex-Eagles QB's Ron Jaworski and Randall Cunningham...class acts both on and off the field.

Deion Sanders was good at making interceptions... but not too great of a blocker.

Here either, but I agree he was great. Seems the organization never really honored him the way he deserved though :-\\

It's just bizzare to see Parcels coaching in Dallas.....I remember when he coached the Giants and he and QB Phil Simms hated the Boys ::)
Former Giant Players Lawrence Taylor and Jim Burt have been helping certain Cowboy defensive players in training camp this year.

Denver beat Indy Gents Colts last night but probably because it wasn't a playoff game ::)

It's all about regions....I hate that as well though. Nice that you guys won. Denver will probably lose to Dallas on Thanksgiving....but at least we'll both be watching it on National TV :)

I have the Sunday Ticket on DirecTV... so once the season starts, i won't have this problem.. but it just baffled me that they would air previously aired games when there are live ones going on.

I know what you mean. I'm still thinking about getting DISH Network again so I can choose Denver, Chicago and Phoenix ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox channels :)

My brother is a big Giants fan so you can imagine the exultation last night when the
Giants beat thePatriots.  Could anyone have predicted that?!!!!!

That's great news!  Though I don't think of New England as a dirty team by any means, I am tiring of the "Dynasty"...as for the Giants, I hope Eli has a breakout year :)

My Broncos are visiting Phoenix to play the Cardinals tonight. Jake Plummer returns to the state where he starred for Arizona State and the Cardinals but he won't play. Former CSU QB Bradlee VanPelt gets the call as he tries to solidify his backup role to Jake :)
