It helps to be a lacrosse fan. The Mammoth don't tear your heart out until the playoffs, and the Outlaws alternately win and lose the championship game every other year. But the two teams have missed the playoffs a combined twice, ever. Mammoth since 2003, Outlaws since 2006.

I'm starting to think the Broncos just might not win the SuperBowl after all!

Fangio at this point probably realizes the team has almost no depth so I'd be surprised if either CHJ or Wolfe gets traded (even though they should be). Elway is too proud/stubborn to go into full tank mode.
From the Athletic:
Basic gist of Thorn’s article is that of all the major issues befalling the Broncos offense, the two main culprits are Garrett Holds, and Joe Flacco.

Nuggets season!
This time it won't end in heartbreak. For realz. Totally.
Pretty sure.

Broncos fans probably shouldn't get their hopes up that Elway will draft one of the top-tier QB's this season, if his remarks about Lock are any indication.
John Elway: Drew Lock isn’t ready to play now
Basically says that he doesn't think Lock is ready to play, and I'd wonder if they plan at putting him out there at all this season if he feels this way currently. And that is a real shame because with the way the team is constructed, they need to be doing everything they can to figure out if Lock can be a successful franchise QB in the NFL or not. They seem to be in a position where they can snag one of the top-tier QB prospects. It would be a shame for them to, yet again, not address it.

I bet Elway is eyeing on Steven Montez as his next QB. He has 3 traits Elway looks for in a QB: tall, strong arm and terrible.
So is Malone not going to play MPJ at all this season? Maybe some minutes if they are ahead by a bunch?
If so, that is BS. You have Plumlee running around putting up the worst hook shots/jump shots I've seen in my life, and you have Barton that does something good about 1/5 times he gets the ball in the O zone. Should've traded both and made some room for the new guys.

MPJ will play eventually. Malone said he will find minutes for him, but it's not going to come as quickly as the fans (or MPJ) would like. I think early on he's going to get sheltered minutes, and he's going to have to earn playing time when he gets those chances. A road game against Portland doesn't offer many sheltered minute opportunities. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get in against the Suns. Based on how good he looked in the preseason, I think MPJ will get into the rotation at some point this season, just not sure when.
Given that it's the Suns, I wouldn't be surprised to see Doug Moe suit up.
It's one game into the year, don't panic about Porter. They're going to ease him into it considering how his offseason went.
The Nuggets have crazy depth and they have some RFAs coming up that they need to make decisions on in Juancho and Beasley. If they stay healthy minutes will be incredibly scarce for this Nuggets squad.

on the radio this morning they said MPJ tends to feel entitled so they are making him earn every scrap of playing time
This team is returning 88% of its minutes last year from a 54 win team plus Grant, Porter, Bol, and Cancar. And everyone but Bol is 100% healthy.
Ideally Porter is the starting SF at the end of the season but you don't just take minutes away from Barton, Beasley, Craig, Grant, and Juancho if they're contributing and the team is winning.
If Malone played Porter 18 minutes next game and the kid hurt his knee, people would want his head on a stick.

If it was the same interview I heard, they said that was impression of him in high school. He did admit to being frustrated in the last preseason game but he also apologized to Malone after. But yes, they are going to make him earn playing time, as it should be.
Jokic tonight:
23 points, 14 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal
Torrey Craig with 4 blocks off the bench, including on the final play of OT to seal the one point win.
