[eddie mac]

ffs, Raiders out over the 35 again on a kick-return.

[SteveTensi13]

Hell yeah, Plummer is God!!

[broncosteven]

A Pass On The Goal Line...crazy Crap!
Touchdown Broncos!!!

Shanny has Stones! I just told Karen that I could not have called that play on Madden the way Jake is playing, on 4th down!

[bloodsunday]

clutch my ass... he's kept both teams in the game

[bpc]

Can we get a defensive stop and a TD and put this game out of reach and out of my mind? JESUS.

[broncosteven]

Hell yeah, Plummer is God!!

Huh?

[bpc]

sweet... back up and 2nd and 3rd corners... PLEASE don't let up.

[B-Love]

Can we force a three and out for once?

[Sassy]

Oak TO.
10:29 in the 4th.
Denver 14-13

[broncosteven]

isn't it 3rd down?

[TexanBob]

Gotta put some distance here. Fattakowski still can kick it far even if he doesn't kick it straight.

[bloodsunday]

sauerbraun

[El Guapo]

plummer = jekyll & hyde

[SoCalBronco]

good play, dj

[broncosteven]

Nevermind they had FS. I have a fever & Sore throat. Think I may have to call in tomorrow! What a shame.

[eddie mac]

Was anyone else expecting to be biting their nails at this point in the game???

[broncosteven]

Hi SoCal, Nice Friday reading last few weeks!

[Clockwork Orange]

Come on, three and out right here.

[broncosteven]

Was anyone else expecting to be biting their nails at this point in the game???

Yes, I remember the snow game a few years ago we should have won, etc...

[eddie mac]

Huge 3rd and 8. Come on D, get the stop or even a turnover.

[Sassy]

3 and 8
COME ON STOP THEM!
Walter...SHORT!
PUNT! BABY! PUNT!

[footstepsfrom#27]

Champ time...let's get an INT.

[broncosteven]

Woo Hoo! The Punter! That is what I want this D to produce!

[Clockwork Orange]

Nice. Now we need a long, time consuming drive that ends in a TD.

[eddie mac]

Yes, great stop.

[Sassy]

Can we steal Lechler?
Damn...

[eddie mac]

At the fvcking 1 yd line. Jesus H

[Sassy]

at the 2...
98 yard run this time by Walker ;D

[B-Love]

That's gotta be the 15th time we've been buried inside our 5 yard line this year.

Unreal.

[broncosteven]

Need to get out of here!

[footstepsfrom#27]

Wow...if there was ever a time and place to NOT let Jake put it in the air...this is it. RB's gotta step up.

[fontaine]

I love this DEFENSE!

[Clockwork Orange]

The TE's continue to be involved. Nice to see Jake remembered that he has them.

[broncosteven]

Nate is finally making some grabs.

[eddie mac]

tatum for the 1st down.

[eddie mac]

Bell for 9, good run.

[Clockwork Orange]

Tatum's best run of the game. Now would be a great time to crank up the rushing game.

[bloodsunday]

points.. period. Don't be happy with time off the clock.

[Clockwork Orange]

That's a terrible spot, he had that.

[footstepsfrom#27]

NO FUMBLES...INT'S...etc.. here PLEASE. We got to get this thing to at least midfield...

[eddie mac]

3rd and an inch.

[broncosteven]

I love this DEFENSE!

I love that D also. I love to see them force 3 & outs & not let the worst team in the league drive on them. Need to see the punter more.

[Sassy]

Jackson for 9.
2 and 1
COME ON GUYS...YOU CAN DO IT!
Handoff to Bell.
1st down.
7:58 to go.
Bell for 9

Bootleg...under duress...
Jackson hauls it in...

3/33 for Nate Jackson
Jake has 10 straight completions!
Sapp FIRST DOWN!

[Clockwork Orange]

Cecil Sapp, first down!!

[eddie mac]

Cecil for 5, 1st down.

[footstepsfrom#27]

Key play right here...

[bloodsunday]

Cecil for TB?

[Clockwork Orange]

There's Javon!!

[broncosteven]

Nice grab Javon!

[eddie mac]

Javon shows up again for 23 yards

[footstepsfrom#27]

Single coverage on Walker...stupid Raiders.

[broncosteven]

Damn TB should have had more on that run. Nice drive though so far.

[bloodsunday]

shocker, Tatum falls down.

[eddie mac]

tater for 3. under 5 mins.

[Clockwork Orange]

Looked like a micommunication there. Plummer thought he had the out route.

[eddie mac]

wtf was that pass all about???

[bloodsunday]

Good time out... no mistake here.

[Sassy]

Plummer to Walker!
23 yard rip!
5 minutes to go.
Bell...3 yard gain
2 and 7
shy of the 45.
Plummer...incomplete...looking for walker.
3 and 7
Come on...we need points!
4:16 to go
TO Broncos

[eddie mac]

Major 3rd down play coming up here. Has to be Javon or a TE.

[Clockwork Orange]

Huge 3rd down here. Gotta convert.

[broncosteven]

Final TO already! If they don't get this conversion that could hurt.

[eddie mac]

Wow Plummer and Shanahan have a .745 winning percentage together. Does it seem that high???

[Sassy]

Hey...look at the Plummer/Shanahan winning Coach/QB combination!

;D

3 and 7
PICK DAMN IT...out of bounds...

[Clockwork Orange]

Another rotten throw that was luckily not picked. **** me runnin'.

[eddie mac]

wow nearly another pick.

[bloodsunday]

That will be #4 after the challenge.

[Sassy]

CRAP...it's an INT.

[eddie mac]

That may be an interception.

[Clockwork Orange]

Damn, it sure looked like his 2nd foot was down in bounds.

There's your 4th INT of the day, Jake.

[broncosteven]

Bad Challenge they have to punt anyway.

[SteveTensi13]

Thats a pick folks! My prediction has come through, sadly. Bad Jake is in the house.

[eddie mac]

I'm sorry but that fvcker has to go and now. He cannot hit the numerous open deep shots this offense has available. That would've been a TD with Cutler.

[Clockwork Orange]

Plummer is gonna send Washington to the Pro Bowl the same way TrINT sent Deltha.

[footstepsfrom#27]

Shell gambling his last TO here...he must be pretty sure...or maybe he just thinks the refs will consider the fact that it was Plummer throwing it so it's probably a pick...

[broncosteven]

Too bad he was not on target Walker would have had a TD there.

[Sassy]

wow...ruling on the field stands...

[Goobzilla]

Wow the Raiders got screwed on that one. Good for us I guess.

[Clockwork Orange]

Broncos get bailed out by a bad call. That was a pick.

[eddie mac]

No pick as per the refs.

[Northman]

For a 6-2 team we should be getting better play from a 11 year Qb. This is just sad man.

[Clockwork Orange]

Come on defense, time to step up and win this game.

[SteveTensi13]

Time to raise it another level D! Watch, Coyer goes into a prevent and Walters ends up looking like Manning.

[eddie mac]

5 yard difference cos of our **** punting today.

[broncosteven]

Shell is a fool! they may need that TO later. Now they have the ball at the 17 anyway. I would have a Fireartshell.com website if I was a butt-pirate fan.

[Sassy]

Ha! Fumble! Broncos Have It!

[Goobzilla]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[fontaine]

I am at a loss for words.

[Clockwork Orange]

Lang with the sack!! Engelberger with the recovery!!

[bloodsunday]

Great job lang.

[eddie mac]

Lang wins us the game, Engelberger with the recovery.

[broncosteven]

We needed a Turn over to win the game. Too bad Shell shot is TO wad he should have challenged that.

[Clockwork Orange]

This needs to go into the end zone.

[bloodsunday]

That was a pick.

[footstepsfrom#27]

Thank God for this defense.

[eddie mac]

ffs Plummer win this game for us now.

[bloodsunday]

That was a little too conservative.

[Sassy]

Ok...don't get greedy here.
ICE IT BABY!
Jake to KJ.
3:09
3 yard gain
3 and 5
Big first down time baby...let's go BRONCOS!
No timeouts for either team left.
Handoff...not much there.
2:20 to play...
Elam time!
2 minute warning...

[Clockwork Orange]

Broncos playing conservative. I hate it.

Where's that fade pattern to Walker been? They scored three TD's on that play in the last two games.

[broncosteven]

A TD would have been huge but at least Plummer did not throw a pick.

[Northman]

Thank God our defense showed up today. Jesus.

[eddie mac]

what a waste. Yet again the D makes a play and Plummer and co do fvck all with it. Shanahan better rethink his offensive gameplans for SD and KC that's if we can get out of here with a lucky win.

[bloodsunday]

Ice it. I think I'd have gone for more points there. They weren't expecting it. Oakland scores a fluke TD and you lose.

[B-Love]

Turtle dick play calling by Shanahan.

[SteveTensi13]

Well, that was about as pathetic of an offensive series, deep in Fader territory, as I've ever seen.

[broncosteven]

Broncos playing conservative. I hate it.

Where's that fade pattern to Walker been? They scored three TD's on that play in the last two games.

u rather a pick returned for a TD? give me the 3 & hope the D can keep them out of endzone for last 2 min.

[Clockwork Orange]

It's good!!

[Sassy]

4 and 4
24 yarder for Jason.
No problem there...
Ok D...Hold them one more time!

[bloodsunday]

Ice it?! I think you needed a TD to ice it. Any kinda fluke play and the Raiders win.

[eddie mac]

I just want 7-2. Right now I dont give 2 fvcks how we get there.

[Clockwork Orange]

Come on defense, one last stand right here.

[Sassy]

Tripped up at the 32.
1:50 to go.
Willie Parker over 200 yards and 2 TD's today...
FUMBLE BRONCOS!

[Clockwork Orange]

Walter fumbles!! Dumervil recovers!! Game over!!

[broncosteven]

Whooooooo Hooooooo!

[eddie mac]

game over fumble recovery. Dumervil

[Clockwork Orange]

It was ugly, but I'll take it. 7-2 and still atop the division.

[Sassy]

Elvis Ices It!!! Wooohoo!!!

[eddie mac]

We are soooooooooooo lucky but who cares were 7-2.

[bloodsunday]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Put this bad dream behind us and HAMMER San Diego.

[Natedog24]

Wow Oakland sucks

[Goobzilla]

Nice to play like poop and still steal a road win. Better tighten up for the Chargers next week.

[Clockwork Orange]

The defense comes up with a pair of late turnovers to save the offense's bacon.

Goodness, this was an ugly one.

[TexanBob]

ELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL VISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

(Oh MY!)

[El Guapo]

awesome! Im glad I woke up when I did, whew! :D

[Northman]

Game ball to the defense today yet again!

[fatcard]

wow.... we got away with that one.

[Bronco Bob]

Fumble. Game over.

[Sassy]

"Good teams find a way to win" ;D

[SDBroncos]

Woo Hoo ugly one but its a win!

[labronx]

put in cutler ;D

[Clockwork Orange]

Shanahan now 19-5 against the Fade as the Broncos head coach.

Owned again, bitches!! :yep:

[broncosteven]

THank-you D for playing like men in the 2nd half & taking care of Business until Bad Jake could find enough rythmn to get a couple of good drives to win this ugly bastage of a game!

[Mecklomaniac]

I believe in Elvis

[johnstkr]

That's one fugly win

[bloodsunday]

We should be ashamed that we kept it that close. I need a beer!

Congratulations.... I owe em' that. Jake made his first recovery (turned a bad game into a win) of his Denver career.

I don't care anymore. We won. Bring on San Diego.

[Sassy]

I need a beer!

[SteveTensi13]

Wow, I knew Walters was bad, but he was absolutely Plummerish on the last two series!

[Bronco Bob]

Sweep and Sweet, only one letter difference.

[TexanBob]

Somewhere, Al Davis has kicked his walker. LOL

[spdirty]

I am just soooooooo happy we figured out how to win this one. And YEAH DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMERVIL!!!!!!

[Killericon]

Longest Bronco run of the day was 9 ****ing yards.

I feel bad about the win now...but 2 weeks from now it'll just be our 7th W.

[Sassy]

Jake/Shanahan combo is 39-13 ;D

[bpc]

So lucky... next week, it will not be the same. Denver Organization, top to bottom needs to get its ish together. That is the truth.

Sad performance today that was saved only by the fact that we played the worst team in the league.

How else can you justify that last fumble?

[Blueflame]

I hate the Raiders... a part of me would have liked to see them run the clock down inside 10 seconds and send in Jason to run the score up 3 more points.... ;D

[Clockwork Orange]

Major kudos to Champ for rendering Moss a non-factor. Moss only had one catch for 8 yards on the day.

[fontaine]

Our D won this game for us.

No offense to Nate Webster but the guy was invisible today. I hope Gold is back next week.

I can't believe we stole this game, but hats off to the D for shutting down the faders.

Plummer played like sh*t but he lives to fight another day.

On the bright side at least we know what our offense will look like with Jay Cutler next season because Plummer again played like a lost rookie yet we're still 7-2!

[SprintRightOption]

Good teams find a way to win when they play like **** on the road against bad teams. In 2001-04 we lose this game for sure.

3-0 in the Division, thank god.

The Raiders have a good defense, but ours is better!

[Barry Ramey]

Wasn't able to see the game, had to follow on the net. Big time win playing a sloppy game and coming off a big win in Pittsburgh. It's not easy to win two road games in consecutive weeks in the NFL, I don't care who you're playing. Plummer made key plays in the 4th to help win and the defense stepped up and made key plays in the 4th as well to help win. No running game to speak of, but nice to Alexander finally get into the offense. His best game as a Bronco by far. Defense still giving up too many passing yards with that soft zone stuff, but again, made some key plays in the 4th. I'll take 7-2 with a with a 4-1 road record. But I know, let's put Cutler in.

[SteveTensi13]

Just another day at the office for Champ. I shudder to think what our D would look like without him. He literally takes away half the playing field for the other team.

[400HZ]

It doesn't take Champ Bailey to shut down Randy Moss. Congrats on the win, but I'd be embarrassed if I was a donk fan.

[Bronx33]

Opinion noted now you can cram it up your a**.

[SteveTensi13]

Yea, well your defense looked killer today. I'm sorry, how many points did you give up today? 'Nuff said.

[400HZ]

We gave up 7 points more than you guys gave up to Indy in your own house.

We gave up 0 points to that pathetic, worthless, amazingly sh*tty team that you guys slinked by today.



In the AFC West, it is the duty of every team to dismantle, humiliate, and walk all over the Oakland Raiders. You guys didn't do it this year!

Dont worry, we will be sure to sweep you again this year so you'll feel right at home. :thumbsup:

It was a bad win, has SD won everygame against crappy teams this year by 10+ points??? Oakland doesn't get up for SD like they do for Den or KC. Denver beat Balt who SD lost to but who cares this is the NFL. Who else did SD lose to? can't even remember.

[400HZ]

Dont worry, we will be sure to sweep you again this year so you'll feel right at home. :thumbsup:

Yesterday I thought we'd probably lose to you guys next week, but I'm feeling pretty optimistic right now.

[Northman]

It will pass.

[azbroncfan]

Yesterday I thought we'd probably lose to you guys next week, but I'm feeling pretty optimistic right now.

Actually NE felt same way after the 9-6 win over KC. I expect Denver to get up for this one, I remember you charger fans saying same thing about game last year after the pitiful loss to Miami. Denver plays SD tough and usually beats them but SD is a more complete team right now and this game could go either way.

After our pitiful loss to Miami last year, we went on the road and beat Indianapolis.

I'm sure Denver will get up for San Diego. They always do.

[BlaK-Argentina]

After our pitiful loss to Miami last year, we went on the road and beat Indianapolis.

I'm sure Denver will get up for San Diego. They always do.

Denver is playing very well against good teams this year, but bad against bad teams.

I'm 100% confident that both teams will come out swinging next week.

May the best team win. :strong: :approve:
