lets hear from the dixon lovers now

After Dixon's performance tonight, I for one am not ready to throw him out there on a full time basis for the first 4 weeks. He made some really bad mistakes tonight. Mistakes that will kill ya in the regular season!!! I'm okay with Leftwich.....I was just hoping that Double D would be able to give us that exra dimension. Oh well.....he's just not ready for primetime!! Although I'm sure his nerves were a little high tonight considering this was his one opportunity to show what he's got!

Guess that settles that QB debate!

Dennis Dixon's 1st half stats:

6/13 58 yds 0 TDs 2 INTs 19.6 QB rating

QB competition is over

Now you can see why Lefty was brought back.

Dixon had his shot and he blew it.

Still want Dixon?

He's looking bad against a first string defense IMO.

but at least he got a chance to blow it. Denver has a great pass defense. I wish he played better but in all honesty our whole freaking team sucks tonight. The penalties are disgusting. What exactly are we trying to prove with all these flags.

Pouncey looks good though and so does Redman.

Those were 2 very bad passes. The first one should have been an obvious throw out the endzone and the second was a college throw. Way too far across the field. I hope he doesn't lose his confidence. At least he hussled down field to try and catch the guy.

the guy blows against decent competition. poor passes, bad, bad picks and not enough common sense to run when the situation called for it. at least this qb controvsery should be over. the guy has zero value to us, while ben is gone, if he refuses to use his legs.

Timmons looked good for the defense.

that dude on twitter is undoubtedly more qualified than Arians to call plays in the NFL...

Re: lets hear from the dixon lovers now

Look at our whole team tonight before you throw Dixon under the bus by himself. Some of ou sound happy that Dixon had a rough 1st half. He is a Steeler.

Kyle Orten had 3 INT's his first preseason game as a Bronco too...

Dixon for 30 on the scramble.

Re: lets hear from the dixon lovers now

I'm not ready to throw Dixon to the wolves. He is getting tore up by a very good D. With that said, I still think he is going to be a very good QB in the NFL. But, its obvious he won't win the starters job anytime soon.

where was that the first half?

Re: lets hear from the dixon lovers now

He's currently putting together a fairly decent drive and I'm impressed that he's able to come back from the first half and perform. That said, Dixon is not the QB of our future. Ben still is. So I don't see the point in experimenting with a athletic qb that has a ton to learn for a crucial 4 game stretch. I'd feel differently if Ben was out of the year on an injury.

Leftwich will make less mistakes and give us a better shot of getting to Week 6 with a still viable shot at the playoffs.

our whole team looked ehhh tonight. Dixon is struggling but it's his second game against starters. I hope he bounces back. He had a few good passes on the first drive of the second half.
