I know what Broncos fans think right now, Orton is trash and this team is going to suck.
With the first accusation, I whole heartily agree, the later I am optimistic about but one thing is clear at this point in the season, This is a John Fox team.
When you look at the first 3 weeks the Broncos are starting to play like a John Fox team with running and defense.
In the one win the Broncos finished with over 100 yards running. 24-22 versus Cincinnati.
In the two losses the Broncos were within one field-goal of tying the game to go to overtime.
23-20 vs the Raiders
and
17-14 today verses the Titans today the Broncos still had a shot.
In John Fox's first year as head coach of Carolina in 2003, he went 7-9 turning around a 1-15 Panther's team. The next year they went to the Superbowl and lost by a field goal to the New England Patriots.
So look forward to coming up Broncos fans. I think John Fox is a smart guy and after seeing the futility of Kyle Orton he will start to open up to the idea of Tebow. Hopefully it won't be too late in the season for the excitement of game.
Orton is like watching retirees play shuffleboard in the middle of a Metamucil Conference.
The defense has pop and Von Miller is an absolute beast.
The Raiders have one of the best running games in the NFL and the Broncos D made it a chippy winnable game.
They just stopped a slowed Chris Johnson to almost nothing.
Defense starts with stopping the run and chasing the QB, the Broncos are doing that right now and are 1/4 of the way to the wins they had last year in four.
Fox is a real tough coach,, look who he worked under... this is a climb though, but he has done it before.
NFL head coaches under whom John Fox has served:
Chuck Noll, Pittsburgh Steelers (1969–1991)
Bobby Ross, San Diego Chargers (1992–1993)
Art Shell, Oakland Raiders (1994)
Mike White, Oakland Raiders (1995)
Rich Brooks, St. Louis Rams (1996)
Jim Fassel, New York Giants (1997–2001)
those are tough and good coaches to have learned from, Chin up Bronco Fans!!
