LMFAO. All i can do is laugh. That was the fourty-niners.

You know what happens when you lose to the 9ers? Big alert should go off telling you to rebuild the whole ****ing team. You think QB is hard to get together? Wait till people see how hard it is to put together a D-line and an O-line. Champ will be old and gray by the time we get the trenches fixed and all our skill position players will be retired.

The niners had nothing i mean NOTHING to play for. They were playing for their jobs? You mean like every losing team's player does every game of every week?

LMFAO they just went out there to work for the last time thinking about vacation in about a week and the Broncos playing their asses off to get in the playoffs lose. Hey no team walked up on us guys, this wasn't a trap game. This was a really really bad team playing their hearts out against a really really bad team that dominated us like we were highschool JV players.

No, there was no lack of heart. It was a lack of performance. This team sucks. That goes for the overated linebackers, the slow as sh*t safeties, the inexistent D-line, the clueless O-line, the Darius Watts clones at receiver.

We've got two bright spots on this team. Champ and Cutler and Cutler aint even there yet. And you know what? **** walker, where the hell was he today? Yeah no where like the last few games. He needs to get open in hurry.

Watch this ****ty team turn in a couple of below .500 performances before its all said and done.

Done Venting.

I can't believe it either bro. You lose to the Niners and that means you stink too. I can't believe we lost this game.

I think we have a pretty good team with a bright future.

Hopefully we won't get besieged by injuries on both lines next season. I already know the invaluable experience our young players gained this season will pay dividends next year.

The last week of the season proved very dangerous. The Lions beat the Cowboys; the Steelers beat the Bengals; the Niners beat us. In all cases, the first team was supposedly lousy and had nothing to play for. The latter had a chance to either win the division or make the playoffs. Even the Jaguars rallied, even after it was clear they had been knocked out. And now the Packers are smacking the Bears around. It's kind of nice that the teams who're out of it don't just mail it in.

If only the Broncos had shown up like these supposed "losers."

You're just pissed and frustrated about the loss, and rightfully so.

I wish Denver had a ****ty team, but they don't.

Any given Sunday etc, etc....

As a side note. The heart Frisco showed today was pretty remarkable. Scrappy little team they have there.

There is absolutely zero reason to be this negative about it. We played a team with nothing to lose, and those games are always dangerous. They played a good game, we did not. We've had bad breaks, injuries and a major QB controversy, all of which seemingly sucked the life out of our team.

Injuries heal, our team will be upgraded and we'll come back next year reloaded and rejuvenated.

from 13-3 to 9-7? we are either going sideways or downwards. every team gets to improve over the off season. i just hope our draft is as good as the last two years seems to have been. we have serious holes to fill if we are going to continue running shanny's left coast offense.

Eyesight is the difference between you and me. I have 20/20 and you're Stevie Wonder.

In case you missed it, we've got our butts kicked like this every year since Elway left. Same song, different verse...our small linemen on both sides of the ball wear down over the 2nd half of the year and we get pushed around by lesser talented teams.

Did anyone here actually think we stood a chance in the playoffs even if we got in? I didn't.
We have a relatively young team and with the right changes, we can get to the next level. Some changes involve coaching, some involve getting a DL that can get a pass rush. A run stuffing DT wouldn't hurt.

Coyer needs to retire, he's been coaching for 42 years, it's time for him to call it quits. He was set in his ways this season and it showed. He never adjusted and we paid for it. He needed to use our small fast linebacking crew to blitz not to stand around in zones and miss tackles. Our defensive philosophy needs an overhaul.

Keep telling yourself that.

We've also had alot less talent than we have now. We haven't had a franchise QB since Elway, we've lacked a truly elite back since Davis and Portis and we never had the type of talent we have at LB and secondary.

This team has been built up with 2 great drafts and offseasons in general. Whether you choose to believe it or not, this team is only a few pieces away from being complete.

Yeah, only nine more months of threads like these. Hell, we can do that standing on our heads.

Right...all we need is an offensive line, a defensive line, a couple more DB's, a stud runner, and about 10 guys who can play special teams...no problem.

Now if you wouldn't mind naming the "great moves" from the 2004 draft/off season that have built this team for the future...I'm really curious about that.

Blah, blah, blah. Thats all I am hear in this thread.

First of all Walker is a great WR and so is Marshall. I am very happy about the future at WR. Cutler he has it from what I have seen so far. We MUST address the RB position as Tater is not the answer and Mike Bell has to many questions. Foster has to go, heck I would cut him after the way he has played. We don't suck and we aren't going to be sub .500 that is just plain stupid to say. We sucked this year which was a matter of injuries, and lack of OLine and DLine. Thats all, now chin up and get excited for a full 16 game season with Cutler!!!!!

You know initially at the start of the season I believed that to be true, but Lang Ekuban and Dumervil are better than people are giving them credit for. Our linebackers have had chances and they just aren't making tackles. We definitely need help up front inside, but I think considering the money we have invested in both areas, the D-line actually out-played the linebackers this year and were more consistent.

Man. So far the list of big problems this team has is...

*our o-line
*our RBs
*our d-line
*our LBs
*our safeties
*our CBs besides CB
*our punter
*our offensive coordinator
*our defensive coordinator
*special teams
*run defense
*run offense
*3rd down defense

I'm not saying some of this isn't true, but reading this board right now, you'd think we went 3-13. But at least we got our QB problem solved.
