Dark Clouds, Days loom over Broncos

Finding words to describe this Broncos game and season is becoming harder and harder by the day. Just a couple of days after getting the "splash of water to the face" accusation of cheating the Broncos rain cloud would not go away and it rained enough on them to put them on the wrong end of the score and out of the playoff chase in every way but mathematically.

Rams 36

Broncos 33

The 10,000 or more no shows who decided to spend their Sunday in something else now have a while to contemplate coming back, the Broncos do not play a home game until the day after Christmas. My guess is that double that amount will stay home for the last 2 home games, for a franchise that has had precious little to cheer about the last decade this looks like to be the empire crumbling around Pat Bowlen. Cheating, fan lethargy, and then an embarrassing loss on the home field to a rookie QB (don't get me wrong Sam Bradford is the real deal) would be enough to make anyone give up the ghost. It isn't clear if Josh Mcdaniels makes it to the 2011 season but to get the jump on that season TIM TEBOW MUST PLAY REAL MINUTES AT SOME POINT THIS SEASON. Kyle Orton's feelings be damned the FUTURE is now for the Broncos.

Dark Days Indeed.
