The Drive with Big Al & DMac LIVE in studio! Al tells DMac about all the teams Denver should smash in ’17. Also, DMac says the Broncos don’t have the personnel on their defensive line to hang with the Cowboys. Al & DMac simulcast with Ben & Skin from 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. Ben & Skin say they’re not afraid of Siemian, and Al tells them we have a little thing in Denver called a defense.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!!!

The Bengals move on from their OC Ken Zampese, and Big Al says this job is a tough one. Cincinnati doesn’t know how to get their playmakers involved, and Al says nobody had the Texans pulling it off with a rookie QB. Jared Crick is headed to I.R. with back issues, and the Broncos bring in Ahtyba Rubin off the street. Also, Big Al is disappointed in being left off the list of Top-50 Bengals of all-time. The guys break down the Texans vs Bengals game, and Big Al says it’s great to see what JJ Watt is doing for the community. Also, DMac wonders what’s happening with Andrew Luck in Indianapolis & how many strikes the Red Sox & Yankees have left for cheating. Al has a message for Denver Broncos fans: Don’t sell your tickets to Cowboys fans. Al tells DMac about all the teams Denver should smash in ’17. Also, DMac says the Broncos don’t have the personnel on their defensive line to hang with the Cowboys.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!!!

All about how to pronounce the name Ahtyba Rubin. DMac asks Al how anyone would ever mispronounce his name. Al & DMac simulcast with Ben & Skin from 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. Ben & Skin say they’re not afraid of Siemian, and Al tells them we have a little thing in Denver called a defense. Ben & Skin went to the same high school as Aqib Talib, and say they respect the Broncos’ defense but the Cowboys are set to steamroll with Zeke Elliott & Denver’s offense will be pressured to score. Al & DMac force Ben & Skin to freestyle with ‘Siemian’ incorporated, and everyone is forced to make their picks on the air for the big game on Sunday. Listen to the interview HERE! Big Al gives his prediction on the Cowboys game Sunday, and says rookies are susceptible to putting the ball on the ground & Denver doesn’t need to see DeAngelo Henderson in the backfield yet. Al says the NFC East is not as dominant as the AFC West, and DMac isn’t convinced DeAngelo Henderson won?t be special if the Broncos put him in there. Al says he needs Gotsis to hit, constrict & make a play if he wants to be successful against Dallas, and the Broncos should have success if Gotsis can move quickly & close holes. Also, an injury report from VJ & Jamaal Charles pushing CJ for playing time.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!!!

Broncos fans from all over call in for the Friday Fire-Up, and one caller even says Bennie Fowler will have another two touchdowns against the Cowboys on Sunday. The guys go Behind Enemy Lines with Todd Archer of ESPN Dallas, and Todd says Denver presents a different challenge for the Cowboys than they saw in Week 1 against the NY Giants. Archer says there’s nobody like Von Miller, and DMac asks why we always hear about the simplicity of the Dallas offense. DMac cautions the Broncos, and says don’t worry about blowing it against the Cowboys. Also, DMac asks Cowboys fans what’s wrong with Dez Bryant. Dmac decides that Jared Crick was never the pass rusher the Broncos wanted him to be, and some callers are concerned about Justin Simmons’ huge challenge in helping stuff the box against the run similar to what TJ Ward used to do.
