If, DA is cleared he will be #3.

8 out of 10.

I couldn't hear "Conquest" playing in the background.

I'm just glad we'll get to see what Skeltonberger can do. I think he's got what it takes to be a good quarterback in this league, and we'll get to see an extended glimpse of what he's capable of. Count me excited.

Dunno why Whiz is such a drama queen, was this decision so tough or was he trying to surprise the Broncos? He seems to go out of his way to tick off the fan base, like he wants to get fired.

I think more of it is just gamesmanship.

Do the Broncos prepare for Bartel or Skelton?

:) just kidding.

All the Broncos have to do in either case is rush 10 and put a spy on Fitz...not that anyone can get the ball to him

Whis said:
“You have to understand what you are faced with and you have to be patient,” Whisenhunt said. “Your expectations can’t be so high that they are going to come in and play well."

Way to get your QB's back Whis. Because your other failures played so well, the bar has been set high. How about saying "I know he's the third string QB, and a rookie, but he has been here since day one this season working and I have confidence in him and think he will do ok."

If not, why the hell is he on the team? I dunno, maybe I'm reading too much into the situation, but FFS I'm constantly boggled by the words this man chooses.

He started Skelton. Nothing here to make us go "hmmmmm"

Bartel needed exposure to our offense in case of emergencies. If God forbid Skelton gets hurt and Bartel has to play, he needs to be somewhat prepared as he wont be playing with the entire playbook.

Good golly, what makes you think that could be a possibility? I mean our QBs have been untouched all year and it isn't like we lost two QBs to injury in a 5 minute span.

He should know 3 plays. Hand off left/right, throw at Breaston, throw at Fitz. That's the DA playbook. If Bartel has to come in, we're boned anyway. Hell, I think we're boned with Skelton, but my cheery optimism won't let me give up hope.

Ok, he ticked you off - that's one. Sorry, but I'm not voting you in as the official representative of the fan base.
