hit....from what i`m hearing,northcoast put out their biggest pre-season play thus far on denver....

i don`t see it....plummer`s o.k....but he`s usually a slow starter...and he certainly won`t be there in the 4th qtr...

kanell does nothing for me...mike quinn?....who knows what you`re getting...

i understand that seneca wallace is going to get alot of action after hasselbeck....and he looked pretty good last week....

steele latches onto teams and doesn`t let go....witness nebraska...

maybe he knows something here...people are buying into this play,bigtime...

a 4 point swing is pretty ridiculous,imo....

Denevr is 6-0 all time against Seattle in Pre-Season. Maybe the line move based solely on that stat.

Seattle had a shorter week as well. But I think that's more than offset by Denver's wicked 3 straight weeks on the road.

I can't see a good reason to take Denver. I like Seattle, but maybe the history of this matchup will keep me away from the game.

i could be way off here...but im pretty sure this is denvers 3rd game ..and pre-season logic usually dictates that in the 3rd game teams play there starting units more..they try to be much more focused/ crisp..and try to execute a closer to regular game plan...that being said ...Denver plays 5 exhibition games this year ..so im not sure how teams in the past have used thier starters in the third of five pre-season games ....i really dont follow pre-season except for injuries ..so maybe someone can give you some stats from the last few years with teams in similar situations as denver...


thats is a big point swing ...the above is the only reason i can think of for such a big swing in pre-season ...


good luck guys

Denver is running a 20-25 play script, essentially imitating a regular season game for the 1st half. Thing is, Denver's starters on offense have not looked very good - especially Plummer. He's looked like that bumbling Cardinal QB so far. Don't know that Denver has any advantage by keeping him in longer.

2nd half should be owned by Seattle. They look to have better depth and home field advantage (even for preseason) will matter, given that these are old rivals. I'm sure there's a little bit of pride there.

Thanks alot guys.......I appreciate everyone's effort. I couldn't figure it out. I guess I will just look at it it's a $$ generated move because it came so late in the week. All of the other info above was available to everyone all week, except the NC play. GL......THE HITMAN

WTF is up with this? More Plummer is not equal to stronger play on Den. Would love to know if anyone knows anything more.

16-3 Denver with ten minutes left. Now, I finally understand ! Seattle looks terrible .........make it 7-0 for Denver all time pre-season vs. Sea.
