Yes the Broncos really stink this year. No QB, Davis out for the season and a team that seems to have given up on themselves. Very sad.
On the brighter side, the news is great to watch as it isn't full of useless Bronco stories. Before the season started, each night on the news it seemed the media was talking 3peat. I haven't heard that one in a while.

It looks like Kitna may be the best QB in the AFC West. I don't know that that is saying very much but it's probably true.

So is 15 of 30 for around 270 yards with 2 tds and 1 int a good showing against the Raiders?

There was a first down play in the second half where the raiders ran the play action bomb from about the Seahawk 40 on 1st and 10. Jett was wiiiiide open and Gannon overthrew him. I think Kitna makes that throw. BTW, that game really reminded me of the old rivalry in several ways, one of them being that play call on first and 10 from the opponent's 40, only it was Chuck Knox for the Seahawks who used to call it alot in that exact situation. I love that call.... too bad for the Raiders fans that the franchise is on Gannon's shoulders.

The Raiders have a tough run defense.

I wonder if Brister will make some noise against the Raiders. Maybe Shanahan will forget the run and pass almost every down. Is Rod Smith out? Does Denver have any explosive younger receivers who might get thrown to?

The Chargers at Detroit should give the Seahawks some barmoter of what they'll be up against the following week. Batch should be able to light up the San Diego secondary, even if Grbac could not.

FWIW
