The Drive with Big Al & DMac LIVE in studio! Patrick Saunders joins the show to say if the Rockies go 4-2 on this upcoming road trip, they should be in good shape. Cecil Lammey joins the show to address concerns with the Bills, and how the Broncos offense is shaking up the fantasy world. Cecil says we are merely seeing wrinkles in the Broncos’ offense right now, and haven’t seen the full look yet from Vance Joseph, Mike McCoy & company.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!!!

Big Al says the Broncos must make Tyrod Taylor throw from the pocket, and coaches change their philosophy on the Broncos from week to week. Al thinks Tyrod is dynamic, and can turn any average play into a 50-yard run. Al wants to get all Broncos fans on the same page regarding Darian Stewart’s move into T.J. Ward’s old spot, and Justin Simmons sliding into Stewart’s old one. Also, the guys laugh about Rahim Moore’s bad moment, and ask the listeners what other bad moments in the past have defined the Broncos’ season. DMac asks Al if the Broncos should get Kalif Raymond onto the practice squad now that the Jets have released him after a special teams mistake, and says no mistake is worth losing possession of the ball. HOF NY Giants QB Eli Manning gets ripped by his coach, Ben McAdoo, and the guys agree that’s not the direction they would have gone. Al says Eli may be on his way out of New York, and DMac laughs about Kevin Durant’s third-person tweets from another account. Also, the Broncos’ Brandon Marshall is Al’s new favorite twitter follow. Patrick Saunders joins the show to say if the Rockies go 4-2 on this upcoming road trip, they should be in good shape. Patrick mentions the Rockies are in a position of power with their own destiny in their hands, and all they have to do on the road is take care of business. Also, Carlos Gonzalez is a threat all over again, and Patrick says teams are worried about what to do with CarGo once more. Listen to the interview HERE!

 

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!!!

Big Al says he loves LeSean McCoy, and the Bills running back can be dynamic. DMac reminds Al the Bills are not in disarray, and points to their solid defense & ability to hang with the Panthers as reasons to not overlook Buffalo. Cecil Lammey joins the show to address concerns with the Bills, and how the Broncos offense is shaking up the fantasy world. Cecil says we are merely seeing wrinkles in the Broncos’ offense right now, and haven’t seen the full look yet from Vance Joseph, Mike McCoy & company. Trevor Siemian is being scooped off waiver wires everywhere, and Al marvels at Siemian’s rhythm & timing on back-shoulder throws. Cecil notes where Trevor’s resiliency comes from, and says confidence is high that Denver can make a deep playoff run. Listen to the interview HERE! Al & DMac run through their AFC West power rankings, and Al says the Raiders really are that scary. DMac says the Carolina Panthers looked anemic against Buffalo, and Al says the Bills did that to them. Al says the AFC West is just too strong compared to other divisions, and the boys feel bad for Younghoe Koo & the Chargers. DMac can’t wait to see Isaiah McKenzie & DeAngelo Henderson, and Al cautions him to be patient & wait for the matchups. Al says there are clear matchup problems when teams line up their top speed receiver in the backfield & get them isolated on a linebacker one-on-one like Tyreek Hill & Ty Montgomery. DMac doesn’t want Andy Janovich on the team, and says Virgil Green does all the same things.

 

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!!!

After two games, Al & DMac try to decide if Trevor Siemian is ‘their guy’ and if the Broncos should negotiate a franchise deal with Trevor immediately. DMac tries to convince Big Al that Philip Rivers is trash now & Trevor Siemian is a better choice at quarterback for the future. Also, DMac thinks the Chargers should land Sam Darnold in Los Angeles. The lads get a call saying the Broncos can’t have their TE doing a fullback’s work, and we need Andy Janovich to break facemasks & protect C.J. and Trevor. DMac warns Al that if Trevor Siemian is truly a Top-15 NFL QB, the Broncos are staring a 5-year, $120 million deal right in the face. Also, Big Al says Trevor needs all the cheese in his new deal, and DMac cautions Broncos fans that Elway even played hardball with Von Miller, Super Bowl 50 MVP.
