Daily Update - The Mysterious Q

The Broncos recently dropped kicker Paul Ernster in order to re-sign Quentin Griffin. The Broncos should have dropped Ernster a long time ago and given his roster spot to someone more deserving, but I'm wary of the move to resign Q. I don't know how much playing time he'll get Monday night against the Chiefs (I suspect it won't be much), but his effectiveness against even adequate defensive lines has always been questionable. And the Chiefs defense is a vast improvement over last year's failed squad. If Anderson and Tatum Bell are hurt, I suspect the Broncos will run Ron Dayne a lot and maybe through Q in to mix it up once in a while. However, despite the recent newscasts which insist on mentioning Q's big game against the Chiefs last year, I don't think there's a chance Q or anyone else will repeat those types of numbers against the Chiefs this time. The Broncos face another physical team. If the offense sputters there's little chance the defense will dominate Trent Green, Tony Gonzales, Priest Holmes, and Larry Johnson the way they did the Chargers. My fingers are crossed once again...this time on both hands.
