No, ma io intendevo uno che può permettersi di calcare il campo da gioco per sostituire un'eventuale Jay infortunato... Non può mica essere Ramsey...Chi è quello vero, dai, non fate di questi giochetti.A momenti mi prende un colpo.
nella giornata di giovedi i broncos hanno tagliato la safety Sam Brandon.non una perdita grave,ma comunque inportante,visto che lascia sguarnito il reparto con il solo cox come valida alternativa ai titolari
Ma quindi a safeties come stiamo messi???Ok Lynch safety molto atipica, ma poi???
Ferguson , che va per i 35 però...
ferguson,34 a novembre e lynch 36 a settembre.le nostre safety sono da ospizio oramai
Lynch picchia ancora come un fabbro però.
Appunto, picchia!!!Però a 36 anni non è corra più troppo...
il 23 settembre durante l'icontro denver-jacksosonville,sarà ritirata la maglia numero 30 di terrel davis,giusto onore a uno dei più grandi di sempre
BEh, a Denver è idolatrato tanto quanto Elway...Durante la partita con Jacksonville???Oggi mettono in vendita i biglietti per le partite, io quasi quasi ci provo...
Rod Smith limps as defiantly as any 37-year-old football player can. On the eve of his 14th training camp with the Broncos, however, it is time to ask the toughest football question of the season: Has Smith caught his last pass for Denver? Inquire if the obvious pain endured since hip surgery in February has caused him to contemplate retirement, and Smith stares a hole through his doubter. Think about quitting, Smith insists, and you're already gone. It might be foolish to write off a competitor so stubborn he believed an undrafted NFL player could one day own 849 catches for 11,389 yards and 68 touchdowns, all team records. But goodbye seems closer for Smith than anybody on the team would like to admit. Football often humbles even great athletes to depart the game awkwardly. Or have you forgotten how Jerry Rice ran that painfully slow out pattern with the Broncos? Age has robbed Smith of most everything except his pride. Anyone with a heart admires his warrior spirit, but that fine appreciation doesn't make it any easier to watch Smith hobble in a race against the clock on one bad leg, knowing he is weeks from being anywhere near ready to play football again. Here's betting the Broncos have a better chance of making it to the Super Bowl this season than Smith has of making a meaningful contribution to the team. Now, I sincerely hope the old, graying receiver proves me 100 percent wrong. Why? For a moment, forget how much that Smith grabbing a pass in traffic on third down could help young quarterback Jay Cutler and the Broncos. Just seeing him strut around the Denver locker room, calling out the skeptics, would be priceless, because Smith performs the cranky act as endearingly as anybody since Redd Foxx portrayed Fred Sanford on television. There are names on Denver jerseys from those Super Bowl years that are better known across the country, and I could argue a stronger case that linebacker Randy Gradishar, tight end Shannon Sharpe and maybe half a dozen other former Broncos should be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame ahead of Smith. But, in a city where football is religion, Smith is one of the few Denver players who loves this team even more than Broncomaniacs do. It was disheartening to witness Smith struggle to get separation on defensive backs last season, when he was forced to settle for a meager 512 receiving yards. If the mess of frayed cartilage and bone spurs that a surgeon found in his hip provided a reasonable excuse, it also must be noted that being 37 and physically unable to perform on the eve of training camp is not exactly reassuring progress. As much as Mike Shanahan respects Smith, any NFL coach who makes personnel decisions based on sentiment should probably save the tears and the hankie for his own firing. At this point, the best way for Smith to stick with the Broncos might be if neither Brandon Marshall nor Brandon Stokley proves to be a trustworthy option across from No. 1 receiver Javon Walker. Smith readily admits that despite his brilliant career, it will be a fight merely to retain a roster spot, but insists he would have it no other way. His relentless work ethic and frightening competitiveness seem to have been born from fear of failure. If it would require a football miracle for Smith to be in the starting lineup when the Broncos open the regular season against Buffalo, then it might be an even bigger shock for him to retire in 2007 unless he is pushed out the door. There's no quit in Smith. He has elevated stubborn to an art form. Which will make watching Smith run his final routes for the Broncos an inspiration. Or a reason to make your heart cry.
