I feel so absolutely awful.

[Kaylore]

I can't even begin to tell you how terrible I feel right now. It really feels like '96. We should lose on purpose anytime we're 12-3 with one game to play.

Honestly, if Holiday doesn't return two kicks back for a TD we lose by double digits.

The worst part is our best players sucked.

Champ got smoked OVER AND OVER.

Manning gave the game away.

Von and Elvis didn't show up.

And Refs gave the Ravens literally everything.

And Rahim Moore. I will hate him forever. Even if he becomes all world - will hate him forever. I will boo him any time he does anything.

[Jetmeck]

I understand & emphasize but we were overated and 96 and 05 should have conditioned you to handle this............?

[Goobzilla]

We choked it away, I'm devastated. Was DT that well covered or was Peyton pissed at him?

[Ratboy]

This loss is killing me.

So many **** ups in the entire game, it was a shock we were even in the game.

[DenverBroncosJM]

Running on 3rd and whatever the hell it was sealed it. A completion and the game is over

[oubronco]

I'm with you i'm so fuggin pissed

Peyton Manning needs to stop with those 3rd down runs he audibles into. They are awful and rarely work for us.

Conservative playcalling ****ed us over.

[Goobzilla]

Rahim Moore being in position on a Hail Mary seals the deal. So many chances wasted

[fontaine]

You know what, life goes on.

It's tough, hurts like hell, but I'm still proud of what this team did and where it's headed.

Our time will come.

[bronco militia]

Take your pick for the blame......I really hate that the refs were terrible because half the fan base will whine about the next 6 months.

I really don't like john fox..

[Punisher]

I want to kill myself

[SoCalBronco]

It is an empty feeling.....but if you,let a team hang around and have stupid blunders over and over this has a tendency to happen. Perhaps like the late 90s team this team needs a "final lesson" before achieving greatness. They threw away a lot today. They were the best team in the league just,like the 96 team was, but you have to bring it when it counts.

It will take awhile to recover from this.

I am starting to dislike what he is a about.

If he wants to win, he needs to go out and get an aggressive offensive coordinator.

[razorwire77]

To me, this is the worst loss in franchise history. I usually love the draft, love pre-season, training camp etc., but not sure if I can get up for it again.

It would be one thing if Ray Lewis just destroyed things. If Ed Reed played out of his mind and had 2 picks. But Baltimore kept trying to give us the game and Denver just didn't have the heart to finish it. John Fox didn't have the balls to coach to end it. That's probably the most timid, passive, garbage football I've seen at the end of any game. Once the shock wears off, I'll be taking a vacation from here too. This place will be unbearable for the foreseeable future.

[ElwayMD]

Rahim ****ing Moore is all that needs to be said. If he actually played safety he would have batted that ball down and we would all be enjoying a win.

[lostknight]

What a debacle. I thought Elway, Fox and Manning were to smart/good to fall into this trap. This team was not prepared. This team had no heart today.

Correction.....McCoy's gameplan absolutely sucked... we never stretched defense. Ravens sat on short routes all day. Way too conservative.....we needed to pass to set up run....and to run 5 consecutive times to try to close out game was way too obvious. Throw a quick slant, or a pass in the flat after you fake a handoff to Hillman. McCoy has got to go...I've always hated him and if it's possible I hate him more now

Elway does not prepare this team.

This was all Fox, McCoy, and Manning.

We need to be more aggressive on offense.

[bronco militia]

Someone please hire mccoy...peyton manning is the broncos best offensive coach

[broncobum6162]

The Refs(if you can call them that) absolutely sucked today and blew calls left and right but we had plenty of chances to put them away and didn't.....Why wasn't our safety playing deep center field? Field goal doesn't hurt us....but it shouldn't have got there. If had grown nads on our offensive play calling and just got one more 1st down....

[Schism]

I don't think I could have scripted a more painful loss.

Really sloppy football from us all day, so many dumb penalties.

Von Miller might as well have not been on the field. Champ was a liability. The ten point swing before half time on the horrible FG. Moore with one of the worst plays in NFL history. Manning's INT then pretty much seals the defeat.

Then to top it off there's loads of bad calls by the refs that will haunt me for weeks...

This might be the worst I've ever felt about sports.

I'm completely gutted.

[BMarsh615]

It sucks to be the team that collapses at the end... We have been blessed with breaks like that in our favor for the past 30 years, it happens.

Was a fun season nonetheless and it truly felt good to be contenders again. On to next year I guess.

[Punisher]

God Why Why

[LRtagger]

if its any consolation, new england would have obliterated our secondary next week anyways
