Something to keep in mind. Elite QB's throughout their career for the most part have struggled to win in Denver. Brady is 2-7 against the Broncos in Mile High. Big Ben is 2-4. Drew Brees is 0-5. Rodgers is 0-1. Not an easy environment to come and play in and the altitude does seem to effect QB's quite a bit as the ball does seem to float a bit more on them. Wouldn't surprise me to see Cam miss long on a couple of deep passes that in Carolina might have been a completion.

Broncos also All-time best record for the AFC in season openers being 36-19-1.

Damn air and deflating footballs! :D

Brady's only played in Mile High 9 times?

Not to mention 15-1 in the last 16 years (thanks a lot for the loss, Orton).

He'll get at least two more games there, one this year and one next year. Provided he doesn't get suspended again or retire or get benched for Garoppolo.

Really thought it was more

I highly doubt Garap will surpass Brady until Brady actually retires

Yeah, me too. It was meant to be a joke, which is why I lumped it in there with the suspension. But you know what they say, if you have to tell people you were joking...

Well they have met 15 times total. So almost one per year which is pretty impressive considering they are not in the same division. And the home/away split mostly is just because of the playoffs and 3 of his 4 games against the Broncos being in Mile High where he is 0-3 for the playoffs. He did win the home game back during the 2011 season when Tebow was our QB.

Oh I knew you were joking... :) As was I when I said "damn air and deflated footballs in Mile High"

I wouldn't be shocked if the league tried to suspend him yet again next year, considering they "have the power" stupid players.

I'll take your word for it, didn't realize it was 15, seems like more to me as well but alas I am wrong again

It definitely feels like more. With having 2 of the winningest organizations over the last 16 years we definitely have met quite a bit. I think only 4 years of Brady's career since he took over as starter has he not had a game against the Broncos either in the post season or regular season.

An unproven rookie. A 7th rounder at that.

Actually they have an unproven 1st round rookie and an unproven 7th round 2nd year player. Every player though is unproven until they actually show it on the field. Nobody knows what to expect from Siemian tonight. He could surprise and actually have some success against a good Panthers defense or he could do what many expect and get picked apart. Can't wait to find out.

I'd be ok with that. That whole removing the NFL sticker from his helmet was totally uncalled for and certainly suspension worthy. I'm thinking second offense, 8 games minimum.
