Preseason Week 1: Broncos @ Detroit Lions

I'll liveblog the game until it just gets too boring to watch...

Update 1: Didn't take long for the hype of The Gunslinger to start, I'm sure we'll hear nothing but excessive praise for him all night long.

Update 2: Good coverage on the opening kickoff. What the hell was with Wilson trying to make a diving arm tackle there? Aside from the one play where Kitna was able to break containment and rushed for ten yards the Broncos haven't generated any kind of passrush on this drive at all. The corners looked to be playing well, a nice tip by Darrent Williams early on in the drive.

Update 3: How ugly is Cooper Carlisle? Could Channel 4 be doing a worse job broadcasting this game? No sound for the opening three plays and we miss the first two plays of this drive. Jake is out there throwing bee bees, he threw three pretty much perfect passes. Mike Bell kills the drive with that fumble. Very nice.

Update 4: It looks like the Broncos have absolutely no depth on the defensive line. No pass rush and they played poorly against the run on that drive too.

Update 5: THE GUNSLINGER IS IN!

Update 6: Nice pick by Foxworth.

Update 7: Cutler almost threw a pick there near the end of that drive, flinging the ball into double coverage. Other than that he's looked very good tonight. Mike Bell has looked very bad though. I can't keep watching, I'm bored to death. I'll write a wrap up after the game.
