Teddy was always going to need pieces around him to be successful. Injuries have taken away our explosiveness on offense.
Denver's defense wasn't exposed. They were so concerned about Lamar running that they didn't rush him and allowed him to sit in the pocket all day. There isn't another QB in the league they will play that way. [Reply]

You don't rush Pat and he will pick your ass apart!
Did you get the medical help I suggested to ya? If not, it's not to late, go now while you can! [Reply]

They are exactly who we told you they were. OWNED at HOME by the first good team they played. :-) [Reply]

Yeah, I get it, they also beat us, but at least we were competitive and actually should have won our game if not for Clyde fumbling at the end.
The Donkos are who we thought they were.
I know that Baltimore had hits at RB with several guys out and at CB (I believe)... think Wolfe was out yesterday too. Yesterday, Denver was missing a lot more than that with two starting OL out, as well as Jeudy and Hamler and then Teddy gets the concussion. I think overall, they were down like 6-8 starters.
Shit happens... and there were a lot of mental mistakes with penalties. Would be great to get Jeudy back soon, but their offense is still pretty unimaginative with the playmakers. [Reply]

Hi guy, been a while since we discussed our teams, I do feel for ya, a Bronco fan, always had success with Elway & Manning. Always a pain in our ass , so to speak.
The script is reversed now for several years and it doesn't look like this is the year the Donks turn it around. I will say that they are starting to draft some good players that will only get better.
Until then, I'm going to enjoy watching you guys suffer like we did for so many years!:-)
Stop the run...sell out to stop the run...but when a guy who isn't an accomplished passer has a career day...hasn't thrown for that many yards except once before ...wadda you got...the career day defense...and then no adjustment.
"durr ahh...we keep getting beat deep because we are playing to close to the aahh...duur line of scrimmage ahhhh...durrrr maybe we should back up....durrr ahhh.. " [Reply]

We have a top offense or we would get our asses kicked too. [Reply]

And before Chiefs fans start the full-on, team-sponsored circle jerk, let's take a quick reality break. This is a flawed team that is in a precarious position. They could end up going 12-5 and winning the division. And they could end up 9-8 and end up on the cusp of missing the playoffs. It's hypocritical to shout from the rooftops that the Broncos wins against the Giants, Jags, and Jets are meaningless, while your win against the Eagles (a team that is right there with the worst teams in the league) somehow means you are elite. You gave up 30 points and almost 500 yards. To the Eagles. The game was not decided until halfway through the 4th quarter.
No they are not going 12-5 or winning the division. Sorry to tell you that [Reply]
