The guy who led the team in tackles in 2014?

When you are a DB and lead the team in tackles, it probably means you are

He was pretty good in his natural position. CBers have always unfairly

When Andrew Rich led in tackles in 2010 it wasn’t because he was picked on.

Changing arguments? Where? Bronco brought other kickers in that season to try

I'm only arguing that Bronco didn't have a contingency plan for Sorensen

Kickers are brought in all the time and they are cut or move on all the time.

There is no record of any other kickers on the 2012 fall camp roster

Sheesh, the kickers we have passed on who ended up being amazing at Utah is sad.
