Segment #3: "Like Rats from a Sinking Ship"

Raider Greg reads from a blog post made on cbssports.com by a Broncos fan. This fan thinks that the firing of Mike Shanahan and the hiring of Josh McDaniels will bring about the end of the "twelve year spin to nowhere", and is bringing "excitement and change" for Broncos fans. Then Greg reads some replies to this blog post, made by other Broncos fans who have a different opinion.

Here is the blog entry:
