Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3178703, member: 1899"] I'm looking forward to seeing Staggs at 6. Ordinarily I'd say it would limit the Broncos attack, but since they've struggled to play any meaningful football it should compliment the team if anything. I don't view 6 as his long term position, but if he does make a go of it, it'd be nice to have that back-up option in case something was to happen. I like the decision to start Riki. Fifita is a massive loss for the club but the Broncos weren't getting a lot out of playing him long term. I'm glad they didn't just push Ofahengaue or Te'o onto the edge and they've set Jordan this challenge, hopefully he can step up because the Broncos desperately need something to go right for them. It's one of the stronger line-ups the Broncos have named. Oates has been so disappointing since his return, I thought he'd take his second chance with both hands but that was clearly expecting too much. Coates has had an up and down year as to be expected with this company, but he's a project worth investing in and he has that class about him that suggests he's capable of bigger and better things. Hopoate off the bench definitely seems risky, but I like it. I thought he was one of the Broncos more likely players and I like how he's constantly pushing up around the ball. I hope with Haas back, that will allow Gentle to give Ofahengaue 15-20 minutes to go flat out and then bring Hopoate in fresh and give the Broncos some mobility in and around the ruck. One concern I have with the rule change is that we could really see one team just run away with it early. It's already happening now with the set restarts, but just the likelihood is even greater and the game is essentially being decided on one set. The last time I saw a comparison, the referees were getting more involved in season's past, so I could see offsides being blown more regularly. I'm just counting down the hours. This season has been miserable and I've seen everything that I wanted to see after the Knights game. Hopefully the guys actually make a game of it and give us something (anything) to be excited about moving into 2021. [/QUOTE]
