During the press conference afterward, Cutler, aka Mr. Grumpy Pants, came across as so smug and full of himself that he suddenly made Chargers dick Philip Rivers seem modest in comparison. Can't wait to see his reaction after getting picked off four or five times by a real defense, as opposed to one that has to blitz, stunt and gamble in ways that can lead to huge plays because the players aren't talented enough to beat anyone straight up. Still, that's cold comfort considering the horrid situation the Broncos find themselves in. Mike Shanahan was given the heave-ho in part because of hubris -- his sense that he could turn any scrub into a Pro Bowler. But replacement Josh McDaniels seems to have this same quality in abundance, sans the track record of having been the head coach of two Super Bowl winners.
How big a joke have the Broncos become? This morning on ESPN Radio, a Detroit Lions fan made fun of them. Lucky thing I work on the first floor of our building....
