Broncos & Sharpe

I expect the Broncos to be calling a lot of "tackle eligible" goal-line plays this season with the retirement of Shannon Sharpe, the departure of Clinton Portis, and the move of Dwayne Carswell from tight end to tackle. Sharpe called Carswell the best TE the Broncos had, although they are deep at the position going into training camp.

Regarding Sharpe's joining the CBS NFL broadcast team: I think I'll enjoy his analysis and insight more than I did Deion's.

I know I will enjoy Sharpe much more. Sharpe understands the game much better than Sanders did. Sanders was not a great Corner Back, he was really fast. When his speed declined it was very obvious how little he understood what was going on. He was out of position, could not make up for the mistakes with speed any longer and offered little to nothing to a team.

I am not sure Sanders ever made a tackle, unless it was by accident. I would almost guess Sharpe had more tackles after interceptions than Sanders did. I of course am jokingly saying this, but who knows.
