Now it's all eyes on the Carolina Panthers, one in six for the season for them and coming off that blow off loss last weekend. Joining me now on the K-Wake Comets Spirit Health Hotline is voice to the Broncos, Dave Logan. Dave, thanks for your time. Thanks for your time as always. Well, it looks like the Panthers are really going to be shaking off that 40 to 7 loss that we saw to the commanders. Do you think this could actually make them a little more hungry or just looking for some redemption coming up on Sunday, even though the Broncos still are very, very much favored to win on Sunday? Hey, Gene, I mean probably so, they're not a very good team, obviously. And Bryce Young is going to be back playing quarterback or at least it looks that way. But I think this is a game that the Broncos have to make certain that they get off to a fast start. And when you play a team and the NFL is struggling a team that is desperately looking for a win, what you do not want to do is let them hang around early in the game or let them get ahead of the game because it infuses confidence into them. And that's the last thing you want for a team that is in their position. So I mean I think Denver is a better football team. They have to start winning some games at home. And ideally you would love to see them get off to a good start and dispel any sort of idea the Panthers may have that they can go on the road and win. Hey David, CMN Sports Anchor, Brandon Kristall, nice to chat with you. You know, to that end, the Broncos this year against a couple bad teams they've played, it was kind of a JV team there in New Orleans and the Raiders certainly banged up and deal with the Devontae Adams deal at the time. They took care of business where maybe they didn't in recent years against teams. They were favored against or maybe overmatched or that they overmatched. So what do you think has changed this year? I'm sorry, my hearing aid turned off. Who is this again? My name is Brandon Kristall. I do morning sports here and my new friends. Nice to talk to you, Dave. Nice to hear you as well. Now obviously I forgot your question. No, just look, they've taken care of business against lesser teams so far. Why has that changed, you think? Well, I mean, I think here would be my thing. I don't know why it's changed. I mean, the Broncos have played good football on the road, right, and they've beaten what I think are some pretty good teams. I know the Jets have struggled, but I still think the Jets are a pretty good team. Tampa is a pretty good team. And so, but they haven't played good football at home, and this has been going back, and I've said this for, well, since then, since the 2015 season, or at least the 16 season. They've been under 500 at home, and if they're really ever going to start getting back to relevancy to being a playoff caliber team, to all those things that Broncos fans and the organization wants, playing important games in December, they're going to have to find a way to start winning some home games. So that's why I think this is a critical game. You've got two row games coming up at Baltimore and at Kansas City, both those teams are this year are elite teams once again. So you need to find ways to win games at home, and to me, this is an ideal opportunity coming up Sunday. Dave pivoting a little bit here, but this is when sports news becomes news news as we heard the news of Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds injured in a shooting a week ago, two suspects following him and another man from a strip club shooting him alongside South team was out in New Orleans. Yeah, you know, obviously, I mean, I don't know anything about that story. Anytime you have somebody shoot at you, it's a bad deal. I mean, I think it's so important that not to any chance you get not to put yourself in a situation that things like this unfortunately could happen. I was just really happy that he was okay, I mean, okay to the point of not seriously injured. And I say that without knowing exactly that the story I saw said he was shot in the back in the head. I mean, I'm hoping he's okay, but it's a tough deal and I think NFL players have to understand that you got to be so, so careful where you are and who you're with and even then things like this. Unfortunately, in our world today can happen. So let's hope Josh is going to be okay and able to get back in the field soon. Hey, Dave, I'll put it back to the game only because we saw where the Broncos were already a seven and a half point favorite. The Andy Dalton news comes out. He has the car accident where he and his family thankfully are okay, but he hurts his finger. So Bryce Young, former number one pick is thrust back into the lineup and now it's a ten point spread and then may keep going the other direction in the Broncos favor, making him a bigger, a bigger favorite. So what have you seen from Bryce? And I asked Vijay and he gave some complimentary things about he's shown that he was the number one pick. I like CJ Stradmore coming out. Not as much as you like to Cartel Jones, but I still like Stradmore than Young, but what do you see with Young and do they do anything well when he's in there? I'm digging deep. You're welcome. Make sure you tip your bartender or waiters on the way out. I would say this. I think he's a good athlete. He's much, much more likely to escape the pocket than Andy Dalton. I think at Alabama he proved he can throw on the run as well as be a pocket guy. I would worry about Bryce Young and you look at him, what he's done hasn't been that impressive so far. Lost in starting position was the first pick of the draft. I get all that. Has absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain. So I think if you had to say one thing for the Broncos, make sure you are consistent and responsible in your pass rush lanes. Make sure this guy operates from the pocket, does not get outside the pocket where he can create some big plays, but I mean I think it's going to be a game again. The Broncos just have to find a way to win on Sunday. We'll see how it goes again. The Broncos taking on the Carolina Panthers Sunday in power field at Mile High. Our KOA coverage will begin at 8 a.m. Sunday kickoff at 2.25. Voice of the Broncos, it's Dave Logan. Thanks, Dave.
