Official Denver Broncos @ Chicago Bears preseason pregame/game thread
Broncos news:
The defending Super Bowl champions begin their 2016 season with a game against the Bears and their former coach, John Fox. The Broncos will have a new starting quarterback in 2016 after Peyton Manning retired earlier this year. The competition is between veteran Mark Sanchez and second-year player Trevor Siemian. Sanchez is expected to start and play in the first quarter with Siemian expected to play in the second quarter.
While Sanchez and Siemian are only getting a quarter each, rookie Paxton Lynch is getting the entire second half to play.
Bears news:
To the dismay of most Chicago Bears fans, and to the surprise of none, Alshon Jeffery missed time in this year's Training Camp due to some seemingly minor injuries... But considering his health has been in the spotlight over the last couple of seasons, this was a bigger concern that would be held for most other NFL players.
With the team releasing very little information, we've only been able to speculate the extent of Jeffery's injuries, but according to Josina Anderson, he will be suiting up tonight versus the Denver Broncos.
Some are more pivotal than others. The Bears project to start, from 2015’s draft, No. 1 Kevin White at wide receiver, No. 2 Eddie Goldman at nose tackle, No. 4 Jeremy Langford at tailback and No. 5 Adrian Amos at safety.
No. 1 Leonard Floyd at outside linebacker (based on practice reps), No. 2 Cody Whitehair at left guard and No. 3, defensive end Jonathan Bullard will all see significant time.
This shit oline is gonna .make Langford lose his job and cutler miss games
Alexander Adams
went there,everything with at least 5 downvotes ? Is there a single legit one ?
Michael Moore
they're going against denver's second string edge rushers too kek
Ryan Rivera
O line has to clear the way for Cutler.
Is H. Grassu really that much better on center?
Whats happening right now
They're all legit.
Carson Harris
Our offensive line is shit and terrible and we have no talent at any position on the field.
Our most talented players right now are the always-injured Jeffery and Jay fucking Cutler.
Christopher Gray
floyd looks like he could be legit
Jackson Wright
This Bears O line is fucking shit. Kyle Long is literally the only competent one
Cameron Wright
Well considering one is a rookie and the other is playing out of position they're gonna be shit until midseason
Nolan Gomez
BRAVERMAN TIME
Cooper Bennett
Fair enough.
Grayson Parker
I just want to go to the playoffs ;_;
Nolan Nguyen
That rookie CB play
Julian Richardson
Nice D rookie CB!
Charles Reed
Calm down bears fans. I promise we're going to the playoffs at least this year.
But we always start slow. Not a big deal.
Liam Ross
CHI
Daniel Clark
CA
Wyatt Bailey

Ryan Wilson
GO
Dominic Morales
YOU FUCKED IT UP YOU MOOK
Hudson Rivera
This thread is shit
Just like the bears
Austin Adams
At least the monsters of the midway seem like they're back
This defense looking hot as fuck
I think we let Hoyer play out the 2nd and 3rd, and have cutler save the day like he always does in the 4th.
Cutler has 12 4th quarter come back victories under his belt since 2009. That's the most in the league boys.
Logan Baker
THAT FAKE
FUUUUUUCK
Evan Perez
I bit lol
Isaac Stewart
Yeah but we'll be good some day lol. Sooner rather than later when you take a look at it
So did I. That was a sick move
Brandon Bell
>be drafted to be development project >Ramirez retires, slauson cut, Grady out >suddenly starting LG
Must suck to be whitehair
Kevin Martinez
No he's playing center, he's fucking up 2 snaps already.
According to the casters, he's played every front defense position in college except for center. I think fox just wants to see how he'll do
Hunter Cruz
Second team d looks good all quarter. There's possibly hope in 1-2years
Connor Walker
>5 sacks 1 forced fumble in the first half
God help us.
Robert Taylor
At-at least I have the Cubs...
Owen Parker
Packers fan here. Great to see we have our division locked down this year.
Kevin Morales
Alright, I know some of you fuckers saw her - I didn't get a screenshot but who the fuck was the qt holding the parabolic microphone (glass bowl-looking sound equipment) behind Von Miller?
