"Nothing against Ben - he's a Super Bowl quarterback," Broncos defensive end Ebenezer Ekuban said. "But you know what? The tape doesn't lie. I'd rather face Ben than Charlie Batch just because how their offense has been doing with Charlie Batch in there."

Hmmm, they calling him out, looks like some motiviational tool.

It doesn't look to me like Ekuban is calling out Ben. He's just looking at tape and making comments on what he sees. Unfortuntaley, he is pretty much correct right now.

Even though he has a Denver slant to his comments, they aren't clouded by black and gold like it is for most of us here.

Actually I think they're smart enough to realize that his concussions are really affecting his game play. His decision making skills dropped dramatically after that hit he took in the KC game. If you've ever had one you'll know what I mean. My head pounded for about two weeks and I couldn't think straight due to the pain.

Beware of the walking wounded....they seem to rise to the occasion... GO BIG BEN !

Stilll interesting to see that kind of quote after Ben torched them last year.

I agree Ben is a mess, but this may be Denver trying to get itself psyched up for what is a very big game for their playoff prospects. After losing to the Colts they know they if they play Indy again it will be on the road and have San Diego and KC on their tail.

Nothing wrong with what he said, think about it, if you were on a D, which QB would you rather face right now? At times Ben looks great, at times he looks stupid. Charlie has only had several quarters and looked really good. Tough call, but I'd rather go up against Ben because of his penchant for mistakes right now.

Sounds to me like Ben's being called out...

Hopefully the O-line can do some blocking up front for him.
Its time to start playing like champions.

I totally agree with you. Denver blows and hopefully Sunday the Steelers and Ben can kick some serious butt!
