The refusal to get players that can stand toe-to-toe with big defenders and actually better the opponent, for a plan that is duck and undercut superior players is chicken-s**t.
Once we have injured a few players around the league, the rest of The NFL will learn to fear the cheapshot from us, and defenses will not be able to play the same against us.
It is what made The Broncos so detestable. And now we are all gonna to have to flip-flop and start trying to defend being the scumbags of the league.
I am guessing that that will start right here.
