FalconMama Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Tatum Bell is a good runner in their system, I'm not sure how effective he'll be or whether he's in playing shape. He has a minor fumbling problem too.Here come the he's trash homers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandy Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 He's been there - knows their system. It made sense.But, I bet they tag their luggage well for the trip over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crankdatfalcon Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 lets just hope he doesnt run out the dome with more luggage then he came in with.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sarcomere Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'm not too afraid off him, he's fast, but he does have a tendency to fumble the ball. He was a good fit in their system a coupe of years ago, so this signing makes sense given the situation they have at RB right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXFlashFalconXx Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 No, I don't think this changes anything... The Broncos are still going to air it out the majority of the time they have the ball... I'm not sure how effective he will be if he just now joining the team now anyway,...

FalconMama Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 This signing is big for Denver because by bringing back a former player that knows the system it allows them to get a run game going. Tatum doesn't have to run for 100, it only takes 3 or 4 big gains to make a defensive coordinator change the way he's playing your offense and that will open up the passing game. That keeps a defense it's heels by making use respect the run and the pass.. A balance attack would kill our defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aerosmith67 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 That move screams of desperation...we'll see what kind of shape Bell is in.. I still like the Falcons over the Bronocs... we've shown we can control the clock throughout the game which helps keep teams like the Broncos/Saints in check.

I still like the Falcons over the Bronocs... we've shown we can control the clock throughout the game which helps keep teams like the Broncos/Saints in check.I don't know if it's desperation as much as the best option for them. They are decimated at that position. Bell knows the system - he played there. They worked him out. It was the best move for them at this time. He can come in and play right away. I'm glad it happened this early so that the coaches here can gameplan for the addition.We'll be okay - but it does give them more of a running opportunity. I would expect to see some of our guys trying to force fumbles though - just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VincentVanBro Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Being a Broncos Fan I saw Tatum Bell play for them a lot.He isn't anything more than a change of pace back. He can't handle a 20 carry workload. He isn't a feature back and is only useful when you have another back to pound the defense and then bring him in to burn them once they are tired.Plus, the running backs are never the problem when you are playing denver. Their OL, which used to be amazing run blockers, was always the problem. The biggest joke about Denver was that the reason they could bring in anyone to play running back was because all their running backs had to do was take the ball, run 5 yards through the lane their OL opened up, and then fall forward.

Brewcrew Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 They are still going to throw 75% of the time... or even more when we get a 21 point 1st quarter lead. He's probably pretty rusty from sitting on his butt eating cheetos and watching Beverly Hills 90210 reruns anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncosfan15 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 dammit man, y couldnt they just stick with their fb at rb, This is bad news for our defense man.Believe me, Hillis is a stud, you would rather have Tatum Fumbles, then you would Hillis (He can catch, and plow down defenders). I hope Hillis still gets the start, but I think Tatum, Hillis and Pope will all have a few carries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
