Denver Broncos Pre-Season 2009: Amped Up in Chemistry
Published: August 13, 2009
This just in! The question could be the answer. The answer could be the perfect conclusion and panacea to the matter of the question. Before the thought patterns of too many mad scientists start seeping in, it’s time to get the focus just right.
In looking at the Denver Broncos 2009 season, the reviews are in, and they are mixed. There is but one clear method for the team to rectify the madness of this offseason. Obviously, it’s win football games. More esthetically abstract, the lyrical excerpt of the following song seems to shed some light.
It’s the year in review while looking at what to anticipate.
It’s the thing that can take any team from pretender to contender.
It’s a one word answer. So without further ado.

Some questions still need to be asked and others answered about the 2009 Broncos.
What is it that has failed the Denver Broncos on the field the last few seasons?
What is it that the front office has worked so hard to correct and sell this offseason?
What is the issue with discontented players and a highly determined head coach and his staff?
On the surface, for better or for worse, it’s a mad scientist favorite reactionary dream.

The Denver Broncos 2009 offseason will be one that will forever leave a mark in the sand of history for the professional football franchise. There is no better time than the present with this being the 50th year the Broncos have played professional football.
With the dismissal of the team’s most successful coach in team history, something has permanently changed for the Broncos as an NFL franchise. Stability and personnel alike are all left to question after the removal of Mike Shanahan with a young upstart, offensive-minded coach, who is a bit of a throwback in Josh McDaniels.
Message received!
Josh McDaniels was not afraid to rattle a number of cages upon his arrival.
Reaction making impact
Jay Cutler was the starting quarterback on the Denver Broncos last season.
Oddly enough, Cutler disappeared from the Broncos’ radar, facility, and roster, along with a slew of other veterans in the offseason.
Invisibly!
Elemental telepathy
There’s a new philosophy in Dove Valley, courtesy of Josh McDaniels and his version of the New England Way. No stone has gone unturned. Every position in the organization has been looked at by owner Pat Bowlen, just as the positions on the field have become subject to the offseason Turk, Coach McDaniels.
Great offseason pickups like Brian Dawkins, Correll Buckhalter, Ryan McBean, Renaldo Hill, and others have started to put a new face on the franchise. They are all hopeful of making their mark.
New Coaches and new offensive and defensive schemes have been brought on board.
Exchange of energy!
Even better, a positive support system internally is echoing the highest expectation of the team on and off the field. This is a challenging season for the Broncos to face no doubt, but it has been met with a positive attitude moving forward.
Reaction making contact mysteriously!
The offseason stir of trading Jay Cutler boiled over in the press to mixed reviews. Jay Cutler himself seemed to flip out and decide to no longer communicate with the Broncos’ franchise directly, choosing instead the Chicago media to convey his private belief that Chicago fans are a nine while Broncos’ fans are a six. The only contact from Jay was a few cryptic text messages.
Eye to I:
A series of meetings that happened between Jay Cutler and Josh McDaniels at the Broncos’ Dove Valley practice facility.
Reaction burning hotter!
Then there were those that didn’t happen.
Think about the meetings that never occurred between the quarterback, owner, and the coach, but should have. This all put Broncos’ Country in disarray and absolutely divided the fanbase.
Two to one
The trade of Cutler and a draft pick to get two No. 1s.
Reflection on the water
Jay Cutler later admitted he handled the whole situation poorly.
H to O
No flow without the other
It all has to become water beneath the bridge at some point for the team, the organization, and the fans. So why not now? Now is the time to move forward.
Oh but how
Do they make contact
with one another?
Electricity? Biology?
It might take superior sports medicine, physical training, technology, training, and cerebral football to improve the franchise. It might also take a little more than that. In the wake are some serious head scratchers.
How will the 2009 Denver Broncos make their mark?
What will be the greatest determining factor?
Is the change going to make this a better football franchise?
Regardless how you view the Denver Broncos approaching 2009 season, one thing stands clear. Not many people know exactly what to expect out of the team this season. In the face of a brutal and challenging schedule, the Denver Broncos are a rebuilding football franchise. How soon those changes can take place is really the key.
Certainly there are doubters and prognosticators who find it hard to endorse these winds of change.
Seems to me it’s Chemistry!
It’s the only thing that can heal this team. It’s the only thing that silences the critics. It’s the only thing that creates wins and Super Bowl Championships.
It’s the thing to look for this season.
It’s a message about team.
It seems pretty cut and dry.
It’s a necessity.
Seems to me it’s Chemistry!
