[BroncoMan4ever]

awww **** me!!!

can anything go ****ing right today?

[BlaK-Argentina]

Ok now it's over.

[lex]

Bly sucks. He doesnt come close to earning what he makes,...even when he is used in bump and run.

[Spider]

well that sucked

[ElwayMD]

The funny thing is, our run D is playing great.

Thanks for the jinx :)

[HEAV]

Ouch that hurt.

[oubronco]

change directions and everyone overpersues every fuggin time

[Denver724]

Please make someone else beat us besides Steve Smith

Your wish has been answered. His last name is Williams.

[ScottXray]

Well, the ever present major running play bites us agaain!

[Bronx33]

yay! :)

shove a shovel up your ass, your team played 10 minutes and won by default.

[snowspot66]

That's what a real running back does.

[Black96WS6]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

[brother love]

Please make someone else beat us besides Steve Smith

On second thought, I take that back.

[tsiguy96]

whats worse: not having hillis or not having a single competent player on defense?

[Dagmar]

They should just switch to the Steelers Ravens game, at least it's a contest.

[Denver724]

Bly sucks. He doesnt come close to earning what he makes,...even when he is used in bump and run.

Agreed. He is a decent CB, but not worth the coin he is making. He needs to go or restructure.

[baja]

The funny thing is, our run D is playing great.

Only on passing downs

[ScottXray]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

Keep dreamin!

[Orange_Beard]

Hillis is the only runner who has consistantly done anything all year

He is the only guy who has played more then 2 games.

Hillis did come on the scene during a soft part of the schedule. I love the guy but to say we can win w/out him is silly.

[oubronco]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

***k off

[snowspot66]

Our year is over. We'll get into the playoffs in all likelihood. We'll be one and done. No Hillis. no run game. It's over.

[broncoblue]

think its bed time after the next drive

[Kid A]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

They are just so ****in proud of themselves for beating KC. Let's see if Tampa hands you a win next week.

[chickennob2]

Scrap the whole defense?

[BroncoMan4ever]

will Shanahan please take over the ****ing defense and get a blitz going, at least stop one ****ing part of their defense

can we at least get a shootout going? at least if we are going to get creamed let's make it interesting and get some offensive goodness going so my fantasy football team doesn't get screwed.

[Denver724]

That's what a real running back does.

Man, you said it. Elite RB in Rd. #1? Not with Shanny in charge. Too many late round gems to be had.

[oubronco]

where are the boobies

[Orange_Beard]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

You will come up a game short. We will beat Buffalo next week. Your season is over.

[Goobzilla]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

Where's Spider and his patented throat punch when we need it?

[Bronx33]

Ok jay just like last week ( just keep plugging away) don't give up!

[HEAV]

where are the boobies

Boob mojo may not be enough today.

[Bronx33]

http://img361.imageshack.us/img361/4711/vanessa04mv9.jpgwhere are the boobies

[BroncoMan4ever]

Where's Spider and his patented throat punch when we need it?

**** that someone kick that douche in the throat

[Denver724]

whats worse: not having hillis or not having a single competent player on defense?

I think we have some great young talent on def. It is more the play calling although many on this board would disagree.

[ScottXray]

Daamn it Jay,,, watch the ddefenders too.

[Bronx33]

poorly thrown ( again)

[BlaK-Argentina]

This is sad. AND I'm going to lose my fantasy playoff game... this has been a great sunday. ::)

[Drek]

We have our starting TB back. Now all of a sudden we don't have a chance w/o Hillis?

I disagree.

We where a much better team when our "starting tailback" got replaced with Hillis.

In fact, for the first part of the season we were a better team when Michael Pittman ran the ball instead of our "starting tailback".

Young is inconsistent and he doesn't get tough yardage. He's a situational #2 RB, expecting him to tote the rock 20+ times a game should only go hand in hand with expecting a loss.

This game is just about over short of Cutler putting on an areal show and Slowik suddenly creating some fire and aggression on D simultaneously. Even then it'll be tough to crawl back from a 17 point deficit.

Tells you a lot about this team though. Most of it I'm sure we really don't want to hear, but the facts are the facts. No Hillis? No consistent offense. No Champ? No aggressive play calling on D. Where does that get us? A first round home playoff game and a quick loss?

[Popps]

Yep, Mopey-Jay is back. Flat-footed... lofting dumbass passes, etc.

[HEAV]

Ucccckkkk Jay is off again.

[tsiguy96]

its a combination of ok players playing with no real coaching i think...

[Sassy]

wow...that could have been INT #4

[broncoblue]

where are the boobies

on the field

[BlaK-Argentina]

Learn to run downfield Marshall, goddamnit.

[razorwire77]

And Tatum runs right into the back of the line.

We're done.

[tsiguy96]

go for it, you have to. youre not stopping tehm anytime soon...

[ElwayMD]

Oh for ****s sake run downhill!

[HEAV]

3 & out.

[BroncoMan4ever]

if we don't get a ****ing RB by the end of the 2nd round of next years draft i am driving to Dove Valley and opening fire on the front office.

[Denver724]

Someone needs to talk to Marshall about going side-to-side. He needs a stern talking to.

[brother love]

Damnit Marshal go North and South!

[Harvitz81]

Why are we still running the ball down by 17???

[Bronx33]

http://img381.imageshack.us/img381/741/467b80bd747f6christywesdk9.jpg

[illbroncsfn]

Marshall not playing BIG

[baja]

final score 44 to 10 I'm off to the beach....

[ScottXray]

Marshall needs to just go North south sopmetimes...he could have gotten that first.

[Goobzilla]

Turn it upfield (again) Brandon. 3rd down and he's dancing sideways (again).

[Bronx33]

http://img381.imageshack.us/img381/198/carrie20d205he7.jpg

[BroncoMan4ever]

where the **** is Boyd? wasn't he supposed to start and now he isn't even ****ing active?

[Orange_Beard]

We where a much better team when our "starting tailback" got replaced with Hillis.

In fact, for the first part of the season we were a better team when Michael Pittman ran the ball instead of our "starting tailback".

How many games did Hillis start? The guy started against 2 ****ty teams.
To say the season is over with out him is silly

[go_broncos]

we are screwed..

[rastaman]

Hello everyone and welcome to the NFL on CBS! We're in beautiful San Diego, California to watch the 8-7 Denver Broncos take on the 7-8 San Diego Chargers! The winner gets the Division title and advances to the playoffs! :)

Arrrrrrrg....you could be right!!!:wiggle:

[brother love]

Where the hell is DJ Williams?

[lex]

Anyone notice how many times the opponents get yards after breaking tackles?

[tsiguy96]

we have a running back, his name is hillis, and welcome to bronco life without him.

[illbroncsfn]

oskie

[HEAV]

Bly hurt.

[Jekyll15Hyde]

anyone else seeing a decent falloff in LB play today?

[rastaman]

final score 44 to 10 I'm off to the beach....

Watch out for sharks!!!:thumbsup:

[Sassy]

Where the hell is our D...oh yeah, that's right. We don't have one :(

[snowspot66]

How many games did Hillis start? The guy started against 2 ****ty teams.
To say the season is over with out him is silly

Guy was the only one doing **** with the ball on the ground for 5 or 6 games. He only started for two games at RB but if you remember he was the only one doing anything before those starts. He came through with multiple big plays in crunch time. He was a stud and we're ****ed without him. We have nobody who can come in and do what he did.

[Rulon Velvet Jones]

Arrrrrrrg....you could be right!!!:wiggle:

7-8 Chargers? They're not beating Tampa and Denver isn't losing to Buffalo.

[BroncoMan4ever]

a 3 and out and only because Delhomme overthrew his targets.

if slowik is still here next season i am going to kick a puppy

[Black96WS6]

Where the hell is our D...oh yeah, that's right. We don't have one :(

Join the club! :thumbsup:

[Dagmar]

7-8 Chargers? They're not beating Tampa and Denver isn't losing to Buffalo.

God I hope you are right.

[HEAV]

anyone else seeing a decent falloff in LB play today?

So now people want to blame D.J.? Holly ****... This team has been up and down all season. It's not about one player, one injury, one game.

[BroncoMan4ever]

Anyone notice how many times the opponents get yards after breaking tackles?

**** they get just as many yards untouched, or when they reverse field.

[rastaman]

we have a running back, his name is hillis, and welcome to bronco life without him.

Its unfortunate. Imagine a healthy Hillis and Pittman RBBC at this stage in the season. We would be holding our own against Panthers.

[illbroncsfn]

Big Time players make big time plays in big time games- paging Cutler, marshall, Royal, Scheffler

[BlaK-Argentina]

Its unfortunate. Imagine a healthy Hillis and Pittman at this stage in the season. We would be holding our own against Panters.

Heck I think with just Hillis we could be leading.

[BroncoMan4ever]

can we get Scheff involved in the game. they have Royal and Marshall covered, get the ball to Scheff against safeties

[snowspot66]

It would be tied or we would be in the lead. I've seen several runs where if it was Hillis he would have taken it for 10 to 20. Instead we get 3 or 4. Our RB's can't break glass let alone a tackle.

[Rulon Velvet Jones]

Yep, Jay is off today.

Might be time to go play some Call of Duty and look forward to next week.

[illbroncsfn]

I will be glad when T.Bell is once again no longer a Broncos

[tsiguy96]

without hillis, they are dropping everyone into coverage, and look what happens.

[Goobzilla]

That was some inspiring football.

[Bronx33]

When there is zero threat at the running game it makes it real easy to call from a DC perspective.

[BlaK-Argentina]

We look hooooorrible.

[snowspot66]

Lots of time. All day. Nobody open. They don't have to stop our run game.

[BroncoMan4ever]

It would be tied or we would be in the lead. I've seen several runs where if it was Hillis he would have taken it for 10 to 20. Instead we get 3 or 4. Our RB's can't break glass let alone a tackle.

there have been a lot of shoe string or the LB breathed on our RB tackles that Hillis would have run through easily

[Orange_Beard]

Guy was the only one doing **** with the ball on the ground for 5 or 6 games. He only started for two games at RB but if you remember he was the only one doing anything before those starts. He came through with multiple big plays in crunch time. He was a stud and we're ****ed without him. We have nobody who can come in and do what he did.

He did have a couple of good games, I agree.

I just think it is a huge over reaction to call the season over w/o him.

[alchemize]

Pitiful. Outcoached, outplayed.

[Denver724]

The Panther D is stout. They have three great CB's and a pass rush. I am not even mentioning their LB's (Beason is a beast). They have much, much more talent on D then we do. It is starting to show.

[illbroncsfn]

When there is zero threat at the running game it makes it real easy to call from a DC perspective.

Bingo:thumbsup:

[troya900]

This D needs to get a turnover in the worst way.

[ScottXray]

another 3 and out....why isn't Pope in there.

D needs an Oskie to get us going!

[BroncoMan4ever]

Yep, Jay is off today.

Might be time to go play some Call of Duty and look forward to next week.

you can't really blame Jay. they know we have no one capable of running the ball. our RB's go down when they are breathed on, so the Panthers DC is just dropping everyone into coverage and covering everything downfield

[Black96WS6]

The Panther D is stout. They have three great CB's and a pass rush. I am not even mentioning their LB's (Beason is a beast). They have much, much more talent on D then we do. It is starting to show.

I agree. I wouldn't feel too bad about losing to them (we did). They gave us all we could handle in our place and they could even be the # 1 Seed if they win out...

[Rulon Velvet Jones]

When there is zero threat at the running game it makes it real easy to call from a DC perspective.

Slowik could manage to F it up.

[Jekyll15Hyde]

So now people want to blame D.J.? Holly ****... This team has been up and down all season. It's not about one player, one injury, one game.

Not blaming DJ at all. Just as a package, this group isnt doing as well we have in previous weeks. I think its more to show what WW was bringing to the position. Yes, WW started at FS but I havent seen him much.

[Bronx33]

This D needs to get a turnover in the worst way.



Slowik has zero clue how to scheme to generate one.

[rastaman]

It would be tied or we would be in the lead. I've seen several runs where if it was Hillis he would have taken it for 10 to 20. Instead we get 3 or 4. Our RB's can't break glass let alone a tackle.

Selvin and Tatum should not be in a Bronco uniform next season. Selvin has tried and worked hard to become an NFL RB.....but btwn injuries and gaining weight and additional power to run btwn the tackles, it just isn't working out for him----time to seek employment else where. Same goes for Tatum Bell.

[Orange_Beard]

Why would anyone really be by surprised how we are playing today? This is the classic pattern.

[Bronx33]

Slowik could manage to F it up.

lol! i agree...

[BroncoMan4ever]

are our Corners just sitting down on the field and letting these receivers go wherever the **** they want uncovered?

[TheChamp24]

Wow, this is laughable lol
Our offense has gone down the crapper since our 1st 2 drives. Offense needs to get something going. 1 more drive and this may be over. Heck, it just might be over already. I honestly don't see us coming back from 3 scores down at this point.
This team drives me crazy. Cutler makes idiotic throws way too often, whole team is way too inconsistent, its so frustrating watching this.

[CBF1]

Enough is enough...Fast forward to the Buffalo game next week, This game will be the make or break game for the season. NO WAY this team stops San Diego in San Diego. We could be a witness to the biggest collapse in NFL history.

[Denver724]

Pitch and catch. Just pitch and catch.

[24champ]

The fact the mods banned boob mojo obviously killed our chances today.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Well, a positive!

[ScottXray]

Barrett...pick....return to 47

[ScottXray]

Pope for 9

[BlaK-Argentina]

Ok get ready, comeback coming. :P

[BroncoMan4ever]

Selvin and Tatum should not be in a Bronco uniform next season. Selvin has tried and worked hard to become an NFL RB.....but btwn injuries and gaining weight and additional power to run btwn the tackles, it just isn't working out for him----time to seek employment else where. Same goes for Tatum Bell.

**** it, tater could get all our RB's with the exception of Hillis, Alridge(haven't seen enough of him to give up yet) and Pittman jobs at the cell phone place.

thank god at least 1 person in the secondary showed up to play. GO BARRETT!!!

[Orange_Beard]

There we go.

[ScottXray]

1st down...Pope.

[Denver724]

Enough is enough...Fast forward to the Buffalo game next week, This game will be the make or break game for the season. NO WAY this team stops San Diego in San Diego. We could be a witness to the biggest collapse in NFL history.

I don't think it would be that epic, but it would be disappointing. I do agree that we have to wrap this up next weekend. Going to SD for the title would worry me.

[HEAV]

Barrett...pick....return to 47

I'm really starting to like thsi kid. He plays fast.

[rastaman]

Jake Deloume isn't that good. Imagine if DeAngelo Williams and Stuart were both out/injured for the season....the Panthers would be in the same boat as the Broncos, except Cutler has a bigger upside.

[tsiguy96]

pope is the ONLY one looking ok at running the ball. keep selvin and tatum out for the year.

[ScottXray]

Bell in...stuffed for -2

[snowspot66]

Tatum for his patent -2.

[BroncoMan4ever]

why is shanahan trying to run the ball when we are down 17?

put the ball in Jay's hands and let him hit Scheff

[rastaman]

The fact the mods banned boob mojo obviously killed our chances today.

If boob mojo is are only hope to winning and making the playoff.....boy are we in trouble.

[Harvitz81]

Why are they still running the football???

[Bronx33]

blam! goes the gun!

[ScottXray]

Harris false start...damn it...comoe on

[Orange_Beard]

Nice!

[Denver724]

Young and Bell need to hit the pine. Next week Pope and Boyd need to carry the load.

[HEAV]

Moving well now.

[Orange_Beard]

Got to throw it Jay......

[rastaman]

Way to go Royal and Marshall. Let's get 7 guys.

[RunSilentRunDeep]

Harris sucking balls this series

[hades]

I don't think it would be that epic, but it would be disappointing. I do agree that we have to wrap this up next weekend. Going to SD for the title would worry me.


While I agree with that, I'm afraid of what we could look like in the first round of the playoffs, if we even make it (which looks further from happening each play).

[Bronx33]

Got to throw it Jay......


That's where he get's into trouble.

[razorwire77]

Can someone tell me why we're taking the play clock down this far when we're down 17 on the road?

[Orange_Beard]

Go for it, no ****ing field goal!

[HEAV]

why is shanahan trying to run the ball when we are down 17?

put the ball in Jay's hands and let him hit Scheff

It's about balance dude. You just can't whip it around all day. Keep the defense honest and maybe you will catch them in a bad scheme.

[ScottXray]

Prater out to try annother 45 yarder

[tsiguy96]

yay another field goal just waht we need.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Prater sucks ass.

[Black96WS6]

He missed it!!!

[hades]

WTF! We suck bad today.

[Dagmar]

yay another field goal just waht we need.

Happy?

[Bronx33]

salt in the wound prater....

[BroncoMan4ever]

one good defensive play for not a ****ing thing.

[ScottXray]

Damn it....PPrater is FAIL!

[HEAV]

Wide right from 47

[RunSilentRunDeep]

BTW, Garrett Hartley hasn't missed a kick for the Saints yet.

[Orange_Beard]

That's where he get's into trouble.

Can't blame Harris.

[Harvitz81]

Prater seriously sucks!!!

[troya900]

****ing cut Prater at the end of the year what a ****ing joke

[tsiguy96]

yay!!!! go prater!!

[alchemize]

Well there you go.

[Goobzilla]

Jebus. What's the point? Doesn't Shanny realizer Prater is ****?

[snowspot66]

Way to go Prater...

[lex]

OK, Shanahan's judgment is rivaling the 07 Jax game.

[rastaman]

Praeter.....needs to catch a taxi home!!!! Boy does that piss off Shanahan.

[Denver724]

I am really disappointed in Prater. I wish he could get the job done. His KO's are outstanding. Add a kicker to our draft wish list.

[Orange_Beard]

Stop sucking Peppers d, he had nothing to do with that miss.

[gyldenlove]

Why are we playing so many tight formations? when you want to throw over the middle don't bunch everybody up, spread it out.

[BioCore]

Prater is ****ing dog****

[ElwayMD]

Love the fact that we can't count on our fg kicker to make anything in the 40+ range...needs to get his head screwed on straight.

[24champ]

He missed it!!!

**** you. Going to be much sweeter to see your team sitting at home for the playoffs.

[go_broncos]

prater sucks...

[Sassy]

God this team sucks.

[ScottXray]

Hold em here...still got time.!

[hades]

Good thing we didn't keep Elam, boy that guy would never make a kick like that, or even win a game in OT.

/sacarsm

[BroncoMan4ever]

It's about balance dude. You just can't whip it around all day. Keep the defense honest and maybe you will catch them in a bad scheme.

yeah, Tatum and Selvin's pattened runs for a loss of 2 are really helping us out.
i understand balance, but our RB's couldn't run on a high school JV team, this team lives and dies on Cutler's arm, **** the runners.

[theAPAOps5]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

[razorwire77]

I think it might be time to buy both Selvin and Prater bus tickets to Saskatchewan.

[tsiguy96]

3rd and 9. here comes first down.

[TheChamp24]

Yup, we need to win next week. This game is over.

[HEAV]

It's all in his head (Prater) he needs to fix that mental part.

[ScottXray]

3rd aND 9....

[rastaman]

Prater sucks ass.

Hey! Whats the name of that FG kicker starting for the Falcons....who use to be Bronco!!

[24champ]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

We will win next week and the same crowd will singing praises.

[Bronx33]

**** you. Going to be much sweeter to see your team sitting at home for the playoffs.

Let her slide 24 it's all she has after her team pissed away a super bowl and it's chance to ever have another shot at one.

[baja]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

Watch the game.

We are not anywhere near being a good team.

[BlaK-Argentina]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

Looks like injuries finally caught up with us. With a healthy Champ and Hillis, this is a whole different game IMO.

Carolina is very good though, so I'm not feeling too down... but heck, I wanted to take this division today. (and by virtue of us winning, not SD sucking major ass)

[Orange_Beard]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

Could not agree more......The mane has entered melt down mode. Cut everyone.

[Popps]

We don't suck, we just came out flat today. But, it's also that we can't run the ball now, and Carolina knew it. They watched the game last week. So, they're forcing Jay to beat them by himself. Some weeks Jay can, some he can't.

[snowspot66]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

It does suck now. We have talent on D but none of it is in the pass rush or safeties. Everybody in the middle is ****ed.

We have nobody to run the ball. Cutler can shred any defense in the league with a run game. Without one we can only beat up on bad defenses.

[Bronx33]

Hey! Whats the name of that FG kicker starting for the Falcons....who use to be Bronco!!


We would be looking for a kicker anyways jason was good but he wasn't going to play forever.

[ScottXray]

Offense has left 6 on the filed and given up 10 easy .

Our defense is better than we think.

[hades]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

Do you think this team could have done what Sandy Eggo did today? I don't, and KC is banged up as much as we are.

[Orange_Beard]

Looks like injuries finally caught up with us. With a healthy Champ and Hillis, this is a whole different game IMO.

Carolina is very good though, so I'm not feeling too down... but heck, I wanted to take this division today. (and by virtue of us winning, not SD sucking major ass)

Have you been watching this year? This is nothing new.

[theAPAOps5]

Watch the game.

We are not anywhere near being a good team.

Carolina is good and Denver is on its 6th RB and missing its best Defensive player. Must suck being a bandwagon fan.........

[rastaman]

Good thing we didn't keep Elam, boy that guy would never make a kick like that, or even win a game in OT.

/sacarsm

Speaking of Elam....how many games did he win for Denver last season? I believe it was 3 or 4 games.

[HEAV]

yeah, Tatum and Selvin's pattened runs for a loss of 2 are really helping us out.
i understand balance, but our RB's couldn't run on a high school JV team, this team lives and dies on Cutler's arm, **** the runners.

This team needs the run to setup that arm.

This team was about the run, won with the run and were champions with the run.

Being one dimensional wouldn't help.

[BlaK-Argentina]

God this is so frustrating, I want to punch my TV.

[24champ]

KC is banged up as much as we are.

No they aren't. Sorry.

[tsiguy96]

called it :)

3rd and long is gauranteed first down against denver. we gotta stop those 30 yard receptions at all costs.

[alchemize]

Have we blizted all night?

[Orange_Beard]

Do you think this team could have done what Sandy Eggo did today? I don't, and KC is banged up as much as we are.

We did what San Diego did today last week. We were out played and came back on won.

[baja]

Could not agree more......The mane has entered melt down mode. Cut everyone.


No melt down just reality. We, for whatever reasons, are not a very good team right now. Face it!

[Dagmar]

Watch the game.

We are not anywhere near being a good team.

Thought you were ****ing off to the beach? All talk as usual?

[Harvitz81]

Earth to Slowik!!! You might want to cover Steve ****ing Smith. Seriously!!! No one was even on him on that last play. WTF Slowik!!!!

[alchemize]

LOL did I just see TWO linebackers whiff that?

[tsiguy96]

Earth to Slowik!!! You might want to cover Steve ****ing Smith. Seriously!!! No one was even on him on that last play. WTF Slowik!!!!

our defense doesnt use common sense. gotta stop the long pass at all costs. 20 yard cushions hopefully for the rest of the game.

[RunSilentRunDeep]

We do they bother to even feign like they're going to blitz. Everyone knows it's not going to happen.

[BroncoMan4ever]

We don't suck, we just came out flat today. But, it's also that we can't run the ball now, and Carolina knew it. They watched the game last week. So, they're forcing Jay to beat them by himself. Some weeks Jay can, some he can't.

not just them trying to make Jay beat them. it's not like they took away the run, the RB's we have couldn't run on a high school team. they decided to just drop everyone in coverage, and occasionally bring a lot of pressure

[theAPAOps5]

No melt down just reality. We,for whatever reasons, are not a very good team right now. Face it!

8-5 even 8-6 says otherwise. Are you going to revive the Shanny is the worst Coach ever after a loss to a good team?

[Bronx33]

Earth to Slowik!!! You might want to cover Steve ****ing Smith. Seriously!!! No one was even on him on that last play. WTF Slowik!!!!


Slowik says: Apearently hes too good to cover ( so why bother)

[baja]

Thought you were ****ing off to the beach? All talk as usual?

I don't get to see very many games so as bad as it it I can't drag myself away yet. ;D

[Orange_Beard]

No melt down just reality. We, for whatever reasons, are not a very good team right now. Face it!

I agree. We have played this way all year. Win a couple of games get the confidence up them come out a lay a turd.

What is this like the 4th turd of the year?

[HEAV]

I didn't expect to win this game anyway. These guy's are good at home and playing well.

Next week will be the Broncos week.

[BroncoMan4ever]

This team needs the run to setup that arm.

This team was about the run, won with the run and were champions with the run.

Being one dimensional wouldn't help.

we have passes 65% of the time this year, Jay has accounted for 75% of our offensive output. our Passing game is doing it alone.

It reminds me of the early elway days.

[colonelbeef]

Looks like injuries finally caught up with us. With a healthy Champ and Hillis, this is a whole different game IMO.

Carolina is very good though, so I'm not feeling too down... but heck, I wanted to take this division today. (and by virtue of us winning, not SD sucking major ass)

Exactly what I am taking from this game. Carolina is a quality team with vets up and down the roster in key spots. Losing to them on the road is no surprise- the Young fumble, lack of Hillis, and constant shuffling on D hurt the Broncos today.

[rastaman]

I love how this team with all the injuries is 8-5 and retards are saying this team sucks. Give me a break.

Good point. If this team can escape the injury bug next season and Cutler gets into the film room and learns not to lock on to receivers and get a dependable running attack; Denver is going to make some consistent noise next year.

[ScottXray]

Woodyard and Barrett at safety has been an improvement..

announcers are in end of game mode....I hate it.

[BroncoMan4ever]

We do they bother to even feign like they're going to blitz. Everyone knows it's not going to happen.

Slowik thinks offensive coordinators and QB's on the field are as stupid as he is and he thinks showing blitz and not blitz will scare them into mistakes.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Come on, at least give the offense the ball so I can try and win my FF game!

[tsiguy96]

this game is not on shanahan, its on the defense. the offense cannot be expected to score 30 pts a game just in order to win.

[go_broncos]

I am worried about next weeks game.

I remember SF game where we screwed up.

If we don't go to playoffs , it will be a long off season.

[HEAV]

Hmmmmm D.J. makes a play....

[rastaman]

Exactly what I am taking from this game. Carolina is a quality team with vets up and down the roster in key spots. Losing to them on the road is no surprise- the Young fumble, lack of Hillis, and constant shuffling on D hurt the Broncos today.

Also, Carolina has managed to keep all their impact starters HEALTHY!! It makes a difference.

[HEAV]

Just a bit off on that pass. Punt it!

[snowspot66]

we have passes 65% of the time this year, Jay has accounted for 75% of our offensive output. our Passing game is doing it alone.

Even early in the year we had the threat of somebody who could get the hard yards. We don't even have the idea of a threat now.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Now, watch and learn Prater.

[ScottXray]

30-10 after kasay FG. a kicker who doesn't miss!

[Sassy]

Could not agree more......The mane has entered melt down mode. Cut everyone.

They do suck at the moment! ;)

[theAPAOps5]

This website will go into full on meltdown mode. People will start fire Shanahan threads. Fighting will ensue, then next week Denver will win, SD will lose, and all will be right.

Denver will get valuable playoff experience, probably won't do much but either way this year is a good year with what happened with the injuries.

[baja]

Injuries we have no doubt none the less we are a one demintional team right now and will go 1 and out IF we even make the playoffs which I doubt.

[Bronx33]

I am worried about next weeks game.

If we don't go to playoffs , it will be a long off season.


Lighten up francis ( we play good everyother game) so it's all good! also if we don't make the playoffs ( it will be a short season) :clown:

With all the injuries and inconsistencies we've had.......not making the playoffs won't be the end of the world.

Also, making the playoffs and getting blown out will make for even a longer season.

[24champ]

this game is not on shanahan, its on the defense. the offense cannot be expected to score 30 pts a game just in order to win.

I dont know, the Offense was putrid today. This team isn't built defensively to win us games. We all know that. The O are the ones fumbling and throwing picks, as well as going three and out the first two series in the second half. This rink and dink Bullshiat was crap playcalling from Bates.

[theAPAOps5]

They do suck at the moment! ;)

Ok thats much better! That I can agree with they are sucking an egg today! :clown:

[MplsBronco]

Having a great kicker is such a luxury. There is no doubt Kasey will nail every kick. Prater kissed his career goodbye with this game. what a clown.

[ScottXray]

I didn't expect to win this game....was hopeful, but not warrated.

Have to win next week! don't count on TB to handle the chargeless!

[HEAV]

Ok Down three scores and 11+ minutes left... no problem.

[Orange_Beard]

Injuries we have no doubt none the less we are a one demintional team right now and will go 1 and out IF we even make the playoffs which I doubt.

Go to the beach dude.

nah we are just a bad team right now can't have 32 good teams.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Yay, he didn't fumble.

[tsiguy96]

id like to see some production. havent scored since the first quarter right?

[go_broncos]

I hope somehow we reach playoffs.

otherwise..it will be ugly.

[Bronx33]

Hes young and he will be here next season do you think elam was perfect early in his career?

[cabronco]

this game is not on shanahan, its on the defense. the offense cannot be expected to score 30 pts a game just in order to win.

Its no secret how bad the Broncos defense is. Knowing that you must score alot of points without a resemblance of a running game sucks just as much.

[BroncoMan4ever]

this game is not on shanahan, its on the defense. the offense cannot be expected to score 30 pts a game just in order to win.

true. Jay is having to perform at a franchise record pace to even keep us in games.

on the plus side, Woodyard has looked ok as a SS and Barrett has been the lone bright spot at Safety all season

also if this game and season has shown anything, we need a RB.

and with the starting defense i think we need to tear it completely down except for Robertson, Thomas, DJ, Woodyard, Doom, Barrett, and Champ.

in games like this it is hard to say exactly what denver needs on defense, or do we just need a coordinator who isn't a complete ****ing retard? it gets all jumbled up into on big pile of **** on defense.

[ScottXray]

Young Returns kick?

WTF?

Is royal hurt ?

[theAPAOps5]

If we even make the playoffs God you people crack me up. Denver will make the playoffs before they even start their game next week.

[baja]

Go to the beach dude.

I don't know there are a lot of half naked women down there...

[razorwire77]

this game is not on shanahan, its on the defense. the offense cannot be expected to score 30 pts a game just in order to win.

That's laughable, the offense is just as culpable.

We've seen highly questionable play calling and clock management.

Selvin Young spotted them a field goal, and our running game is non-existent.

Jay has been throwing into coverage all day, and spotted them a field goal.

Marshall has disappeared.

Where's Scheff?

Where's Eddie Royal?

[rastaman]

Lighten up francis ( we play good everyother game) so it's all good! also if we don't make the playoffs ( it will be a short season) :clown:

Well thats a start as far as consistency is concerned. Denver has played two good games in a row all season and then follows up with a let down.

Watch Denver play really well against Buffalo, and then lay an egg when they play SD.

[MplsBronco]

If this team misses the playoffs after being 3 up with 3 to play then Shanny needs to go. I didn't expect to win today and I have serious fears for next week. If we go into SD needing to win, then we are ****ed. TB has to beat SD.

[Rulon Velvet Jones]

It's not on the defense. If anything, I take solace in the fact that they're consistent week-to-week.

[Orange_Beard]

I don't know there are a lot of half naked women down there...

It is a little cold for the half naked chicks up here right now. Not quite the same in the wetsuit.

[baja]

If we even make the playoffs God you people crack me up. Denver will make the playoffs before they even start their game next week.

Do you honestly think we are a playoff team?

[BroncoMan4ever]

can the offense just get one more score. do something in the second half. that will at least be easier to take than a 20 point loss
