View Full Version : One and done?

Every game from here on out is a playoff game.
I can hardly believe we still have a shot...
thanks to the weakness of the AFC west.
Chances are the winner of the West will have a worse record
than some teams who do not even get a wild card.

One and done.

I think we have to win most every game to have a shot.

How exciting.

It would be incredible to fight our way back into it...
as opposed to last year...
when we felt smugly sure of ourselves and slowly crapped out and missed out.

Sorry, but one and done would mean that they wouldnt be able to go 3-13. Something along those lines is still in play.

Umm... not sure what your deal is... but one and done points out that we pretty
much need to win every game left on the schedule to make the playoffs.
Of course we will play out the string, but not with playoff hopes once we lose.

No room for mistakes. Pretty exciting position to be in.

I can hardly believe it, myself. Very fortunate fall of the cards.

Can we do it? Maybe. How many more wins can we earn?

I am personally excited about this second half. Go Broncos! :defense:

I get what you're saying. But, again, one and done implies you lose once and your season is over. It would prevent amassing 10+ losses.

In my eyes the only way this can be a successful season is if they can go 6-1 and somehow get a winning record. I dont see it happening.

One and done with our PLAYOFF HOPES.

Does that satisfy your driving need to dwell on the possiblity
of us having a losing season?

The thread is a positive post about going forward...
something to hope for and dream of...
for our team to achieve.

Instead you come back... again...
and this time you bring up a 10 loss season.
You want to argue about semantics...
and dwell in negativity.

If that was true you'd move on and go about your business.

Instead you are cruising the bronco board on a tuesday night...
spreading your negativity among those of us who have not "had it."

Even once they are "done"... I will not have "had it."

I will be a suportive fan no matter what.
I'll look forward to seeing Tebow developed...
and I'll be here finding something positive
about our rebuilding in a down season.
I will watch every game with a positive outlook...
But you...

You'll find something negative to post then as well, I'm sure.

Didn't Dawk say the same thing this past week? Haven't others on the team said the same in previous weeks? I guess McD hasn't lost the locker room as reported by some on these very boards.

The Broncos feel the excitement and it's catching. I'm with Painter on this one. The Broncos have always been exciting to watch as long as I've been a fan. Then again I'm a hopeless homer. :beer:

I think that last season... going 6 and 0 ...
bred a false sense of security....
a sense of entitlement and contentment.


This season is anything but that.

By all rights it should be over.
Heck... I honestly thought it was...
and I was looking for Tebow to be developed in the upcoming,
meaningless games.


Deal is... it is pretty exciting...
the teams fire and desire.

If they treat EVERY GAME as a playoff game...
which it kind of is...

they might just get on a major roll.
A confidence building, hard hitting, smash mouth team
who wants it bad. I mean a team who REALLY wants it.

This is quite an interesting place in Broncos history.

Who knows...
we could look back at that first half as a turning point in this teams history.

And YOU were there!

Why did you pick 400?

Why not just bet $100,000?

Your challenge is nonsense.

I never said I expect them to win out.

In fact... I said I pretty much thought before last week that they had already cashed it in...
and I was looking forward to seeing Tebow developed in these throwaway games.

The fortunes of chance have breathed a last ray of hope across bronco nation.

I am excited. If we can beat San Diego...
if the Raiders lose... If the cheifs slide...
then we are a step closer.

All it will take to falter is one loss... one bad game...
our opponents going on a streak...
and we would be in the tank.

The cards are stacked against us...
and I love it.

Two losses... we are probably out of it for real. One will probably do it.

But to throw away 400 dollars betting with you that they will win 7?

Your challenge is hollow... because you did not even allow an edge...
had you been even the slightest bit serious...
you would have given me at least one loss.
But no... the only bet you are condfidant in is the one where they are not allowed to lose even one game.

Earlier you were talking about them going 3 and 13... then you brought up 10 losses...

now, with attitude, you challenge me to risk 400 hard earned dollars against them winning them all.

Again... I ask....
who crapped in your Wheaties?

Because if I could afford $100,000, I would have. And for all your talk, it needs to be worthwhile.

Being an optimist is not the same thing as being a gambler.

Believing in the power of positive thinking does not mean one must
gamble hard earned money on long shot odds with negative opportunists...
and by declining to do so...
it does not reflect on either my charactor, integrity or optimism.

Quite the contrary.

So , though you would try to engage me in a nonsensical wager in an attempt to best me....
you have failed miserably.

I am still a happy go lucky guy who is excited about his team, his life, and his future.

All Denver is doing is playing themselves out of draft picks right now. Another 8-8 season is not going to do a bit of good. If this team was worth a crap they wouldn't have lost to the 49ers, that was a HORRIBLE loss. The J-E-T-S are at least a solid team, letting a team coached by Singletary and his baffoons beat you on a neutral field is a joke.

Denver isn't going to sweep the Chargers, probably won't even beat them once. It's going to be hard to win at Arrowhead. Of course there's always the return trip to the Black Hole... That will be fun.

10-6 would be a miracle, simply a miracle. 8-8 would be a damn strong finish. 6-10 would be a decent finish. Denver had 2 weeks to prepare for the Chiefs, they don't get that luxury when facing Phillip Rivers twice.

I think the Broncos go 7-9 and should easily be 9-7 or 10-6 if you pull out the Jacksonville game. Denver is literally a few plays away from being in the hunt for the division, that's the most frustrating part of it for me.

You have a point... but we are playing our division rivals on Monday night football.
This is not about the draft next year... it is about kicking some charger tail... and in so doing...
keeping our miracle hopes alive one more week.

That is the whole point... once we lose another game...
we are pretty much toast.
Right up until that point... and after the fine showing last week...
we all got a little dream in our hearts going down.

The Broncos are pro's. They aint throwin' in the towel...
until it is mathematicaly impossible.

Then... all that other stuff we talked about ad nausem over the bye...
then all that crap becomes reality.

Untill then... between now and Monday night...
We gonna dream us a little dream.

Yessir... it's a pure D miracle... but...

I would root for the Broncos even if we we're 1-15, but I'm not an optimistic fan like some, instead I'm a realist...and understand that optimism will in the end always lose to realism, it's twenty-five to one odds that this team at this juncture could run the table and win out the rest of the schedule.

We face San Diego not once but twice, they have the number one overall rated offense and the second overall rated defense. We have lost every game against we have played in which we have face a team with a top fifteen defense...and every team we face from this point on give Arizona and Houston have a top fifteen defenses. And let's not mention top rated offenses, with the defense we have!

I know some are looking at St. Louis, Houston and Arizona as easy wins, but St. Louis' defense is better then Tennessee's and San Francisco's, and Houston has a schedule from Hell...and they'll not be pushovers no matter the record. I don't see a way in hell that we can run the table, I wish I did...I just don't.

I like Painter's optimism even though I don't share it. I say more power to you and I definitely hope you're right and I'm wrong.

One of the beautiful things about sports is that sometimes all it takes is one win to, at least temporarily, wash the stink off an entire season. Unfortunately, as they said during the telecast several times it looked like the Broncos put all of their eggs in one basket to get that win. If that's the case, they probably won't be able to replicate that performance. Even with all of the effort and good feelings we have to remember that the defense for the most part was still less than stellar.

Again, props to you Painter for your optimism, and I truly hope you (and all of us) are rewarded for it, but until this team shows it can win in December I just can't help but have lesser expectations.

But you jacked my optimistic thread about the Broncos the other day, what makes you any better?

Anyway as for the thread. I think 9-7 would win the division and I don't think it's impossible. If we win this Chargers game, I would actually predict a 5-1 finish after that (but I don't have $400 to bet unfortunately). The good news is with a 9-7 record, it would mean we are at least 4-2 in the division and likely to win tiebreakers over Chiefs and the Chargers (I don't give the raiders any shot to go 4-3 with their remaining schedule).

Of course we will play out the string, but not with playoff hopes once we lose.

No room for mistakes. Pretty exciting position to be in.

I can hardly believe it, myself. Very fortunate fall of the cards.

Can we do it? Maybe. How many more wins can we earn?

I am personally excited about this second half. Go Broncos! :defense:

OK, in that case, lets see you put your money where your mouth is. If you really think the Broncos will win out, lets put some money on it. Ill bet you $400 the Broncos wont win out.

Stop the TROLLING!

In the original post he's talking about them winning out. And then later he talkes about being an optimist. $400 can reward his optimism. He just needs to accept the bet if he's really THAT much of an optimist.

isnt wagering against the CoC?

LOL

Being an optimist is not the same thing as being a gambler.

Believing in the power of positive thinking does not mean one must
gamble hard earned money on long shot odds with negative opportunists...
and by declining to do so...
it does not reflect on either my charactor, integrity or optimism.

Quite the contrary.

So , though you would try to engage me in a nonsensical wager in an attempt to best me....
you have failed miserably.

I am still a happy go lucky guy who is excited about his team, his life, and his future.

You... I do not know much about you but for your negativity that permeates every post you make on this board.

I sincerely wish you the best... and I will decline your wager, sir. :salute:
You DO knowhim, Dave....as Lex.

I would root for the Broncos even if we we're 1-15, but I'm not an optimistic fan like some, instead I'm a realist...and understand that optimism will in the end always lose to realism, it's twenty-five to one odds that this team at this juncture could run the table and win out the rest of the schedule.

We face San Diego not once but twice, they have the number one overall rated offense and the second overall rated defense. We have lost every game against we have played in which we have face a team with a top fifteen defense...and every team we face from this point on give Arizona and Houston have a top fifteen defenses. And let's not mention top rated offenses, with the defense we have!

I know some are looking at St. Louis, Houston and Arizona as easy wins, but St. Louis' defense is better then Tennessee's and San Francisco's, and Houston has a schedule from Hell...and they'll not be pushovers no matter the record. I don't see a way in hell that we can run the table, I wish I did...I just don't.

Here's the difference cane....you can do so in a very respectful manner, while Mr. Klug just has to be a "look at me" disrespectful ass.

You back up your opinion while doing so respectfully with those you come in contact with. It's ok to not be an optimist, it's ok to have a differing opinion, but you do it in a respectful manner in which people want to read your posts.

Mr. Klug, read up on Cane's posts and learn some lessons.

I like Painter's optimism even though I don't share it. I say more power to you and I definitely hope you're right and I'm wrong.

One of the beautiful things about sports is that sometimes all it takes is one win to, at least temporarily, wash the stink off an entire season. Unfortunately, as they said during the telecast several times it looked like the Broncos put all of their eggs in one basket to get that win. If that's the case, they probably won't be able to replicate that performance. Even with all of the effort and good feelings we have to remember that the defense for the most part was still less than stellar.

Again, props to you Painter for your optimism, and I truly hope you (and all of us) are rewarded for it, but until this team shows it can win in December I just can't help but have lesser expectations.
The D was less than stellar? Huh? Holding the #1 rushing team to 50yds? So they gave up 400+yds of MEANINGLESS YARDS. Whooptydoo. :rolleyes:

Yes...the defense held the number one rushing offense to fifty-yards. But they allowed 450 yards in the air and allowed the Chiefs to score 29 points! I know it doesn't seem like much when your winning by twenty points...but, when you take into consideration that our offense on average only scores 19 - 20 points, that is more then enough to win. We also did to them what Oakland did to us, we scored three scores in succession completely demoralizing their team, enough so for us to continue piling up points. And Cassell got 450 yards and he's not that great of a quarterback, what about Schaub or Rivers? Bradford could have a record setting game against us...look how other quarterbacks have looked against our team.

RC, the point I'm getting at is that if a better top-tier quarterback has that kind of freedom in the passing game, then the score could be far worse the next time around.

All Denver is doing is playing themselves out of draft picks right now. Another 8-8 season is not going to do a bit of good. If this team was worth a crap they wouldn't have lost to the 49ers, that was a HORRIBLE loss. The J-E-T-S are at least a solid team, letting a team coached by Singletary and his baffoons beat you on a neutral field is a joke.

Denver isn't going to sweep the Chargers, probably won't even beat them once. It's going to be hard to win at Arrowhead. Of course there's always the return trip to the Black Hole... That will be fun.

10-6 would be a miracle, simply a miracle. 8-8 would be a damn strong finish. 6-10 would be a decent finish. Denver had 2 weeks to prepare for the Chiefs, they don't get that luxury when facing Phillip Rivers twice.

I think the Broncos go 7-9 and should easily be 9-7 or 10-6 if you pull out the Jacksonville game. Denver is literally a few plays away from being in the hunt for the division, that's the most frustrating part of it for me.

Yeah.. I get it.
But right now...
at this point in time...
especially if we do end up crapping out (again)
then the season is toast and we should go into rebuilding mode.
I get it.

However, by the same token...
we are NOT mathemnaticly out of it..
we got our backs against the wall...
and the last game showed that we CAN play lights out and
BURN OUR ENEMIES HUTS TO THE GROUND!

Maybe in a week we will be done and talking about draft picks..
but right NOW...

we are alive and vibrant and it is incumbant on our team to
kick the Chargers squarely in the tail.

If nothing else... this Monday night game becomes our Super Bowl.

A chance on national TV to embarress the bolts and advance our chances.
The flip side is not what I want to think about right now.

I have the whole offseasson to be rational and work through adversity.

Right now... for the next few days...

back to topic please. why seemingly intelligent folks let Lex/Jack Klug/or whoever sabatoge a thread is beyone me. it's fun for a while, I know, but dang, hasnt' it run it's course here?

I am pretty excited for the next few games at least. Like PD says, we are fortunate to be in the position that we are in with the Division being kinda crappy.. alot of injured players coming back. It might very well be quite interesting. I haven't crunched any numbers yet though.

I agree nut.

At least we have another week to look forward to. A win on Monday night = one more week to look forward to, and so on.

Also nut, I would add that they really control their own destiny, you know, until they have been mathematically eliminated. But there is still plenty of football left, so anything can happen. They just need to play their game. If they want it more than the other teams, they should come out on top.

Agreed. Winning out means we sweep SD & Chiefs and split the Raiders. If KC and Oakland win all their remaining games (except for Broncos) we wouldn't go, but I doubt the Raiders manage it but KC might. Haven't looked at their sched, so not sure about that likelihood.

Yeah, that is true Slim. no failure or success is final.

So true. Too bad SD is gettting players back as well, though Gates may not be one of them.

Your wish for us to go 3 and 13... well that negativity is not welcome. :tsk:
Negativity is sometimes in the eye of the beholder. Demolishing the Chiefs at Mile High didn't make us a SB team and neither will the return of Ayers. Can you imagine this offense in Pittsburgh or New England come January? They'd take our three rookie offensive linemen to school. We're rebuilding, whether or not we admit it. The coach and half the team are new, many new to the League. The road back to greatness is usually bumpy, but that's life; it can't be sunshine OR rain all the time. However, lessons learned when you're down can be as important as those of success, sometimes more.

This is still the NFL though. I remember a 1-15 League joke, but four years (and two Super Bowls) later they had the last laugh. Most of that dynasty was drafted, even most of the HoFers in the infamous Herschel Walker trade. That's the bad thing about Shannys winning ways: We haven't finished worse than 7-9 in a dozen years, worse than 6-10 for twenty. That means consistently poor draft picks, so we end up trading future draft picks for aging vets instead, which just makes it worse.

I take the long view, and I'm willing to take my lumps for a season or two in exchange for a chance at the kind of franchise players, under contracts that don't eat our whole cap, that we need to achieve and sustain true greatness. I'd rather be a 4-12 team for a few seasons than a .500 team forever. Since we've tried the latter, I hope by now most Broncos fans (and the FO) agree with me.

Take your lumps and then get the Best Available Player while you have that rare and brief opportunity, because a rebuilding team can almost certainly use him regardless of his position: There are too many holes to say one is the most important. Frankly, I wish we'd done it two years ago, because we could have had two first round picks both years, with one in the top five both times. When you're one or two players away from going all the way, THEN start making deals and waiting for the right guys at the right draft spots. That's what frustrates me most about the prospect of a strike: It looks like Denver might have a decent draft position for the first time since I was in HS--but there might not be a 2011 season.

Sure, we could still make the playoffs, but my glasses would need a pretty thick orange tint to think we'll go all the way. I watched the Oilers go One and Done for seven straight years, and I watched Dallas become the first team to win three titles in four years. Guess which was more satisfying. Ask yourself which is more important to you: Winning percentages, or championships...?

Nope...KC won't...it would surprise the hell out of me if they do.
Their remaining games are..

AZ-H
Seattle-R
Denver-H
SD-R
STL-R
TN-H
OAK-H
That doesn't look so rough to me, though winning out from the middle of the season is challenge enough in itself. Hosting the Titans and Cards, or maybe at SD, are probably the toughest games ya'll have left. I know we won at Arrowhead last year, but my memory's long enough I'm not going to get used to it.... ;)

Some of these comments remind me of what was said early last year, before the fall. Lol And then the anger followed because people had high expectations. I'm tempering mine. 1gm at a time. Win? Excitement! Lose? Bummer....who's next wk's opponent?
