I was wondering, Broncos fans, who were you wanting to win last night? It was bad for you either way. The Chiefs win, and they're 2 games up on you. But if the Raiders win, you guys have already fallen to last place in the division in week 5. This after certain fans being excited about being in first place just 2 weeks ago when the Chiefs inexplicably lost to the Colts. [Reply]

The Broncos are clearly the weakest of the four. Especially with mounting injuries. I'll be majorly surprised if they don't finish last. [Reply]

At this point, I didn't care which team won to be honest... never considered it a reality that KC might lose this one. Denver has so many other things to worry about at this point and as a fan, they just need to stop consistently sucking for me to get worked up much about their divisional standing. [Reply]

That game had absolutely no bearing on anything related to the Broncos, except for possibly pushing the pick we'll give to the Seahawks a spot back if the Raiders keep losing. I don't particularly like the Seahawks, so I suppose the Raiders losing was a good outcome. [Reply]

Yeah, I don't think I'd like the Seahawks much if I were a Bronco fan. They won that trade in a landslide. [Reply]

His post spam has decreased substantially since Thursday. That one really put a dagger in him.
Today is 10/11/22. I can't imagine we'll see too much more of him this season. Especially if the Chargers throttle them. [Reply]

He hasn't turned into Matt Ryan, but he isn't as fast and he isn't as slippery as he used to be.
Defenses have gotten better at not letting him scramble to his right.
Once QB's reach a certain age, they either get reluctant to take/risk hits or they get knocked out of the league.
As I said, I expect Russ and the offense to do better but a Mahomes should be able to gracefully turn his game into a Rodgers that only scrambles occasionally with age, or a better version yet.
I don't see that with Russ.
Lamar's passing has improved dramatically, but I don't see it happening with him either. [Reply]
