I can live with that score prediction, so I'll just give it a ...

+1

[Shazam!]

If Denver loses this game, they should just start getting ready for 2018. For both teams this is a must win.

I am honestly anxious to see how Joseph has them respond to a must win after a loss.

[VonDoom]

This is as close to a must win as you'll find in week four. Both teams need it, but considering it's a home game, it's bigger for us.

Crabtree got downgraded to doubtful, so no chain snatching by Talib.

Let's go get 'em. Go Broncos!

[Northman]

A loss wont be the end of the world but i think this game will give us a better gauge of how the season will unfold one way or the other.

[NightTrainLayne]

I gotta believe the Broncos can win this one. Buffalo exposed a couple weaknesses, but this coaching staff should know how to make corrections.

Go Broncos!

[wayninja]

Statement game time!

[MOtorboat]

Happy Gameday Broncos fans.

[MasterShake]

Great chance to go 2-0 in the Division. Take care of business at home! Go Broncos!

The Broncos will have an in-game recognition of late coach Red Miller today. Message from his wife, Nan: "Gotta beat the Raiders for Red."

Just win the game, BRONCOS! :defense:

[spikerman]

A little OT, but I wonder if Elway is interested and/or could afford it.

Red was the first Bronco to give the Raiders a middle finger in a meaningful way.

RIP, Red.

I hope the warm and fuzzy feelings I'm getting from watching the Pats' D get shredded continue over the next few hours.

GO BRONCOS!

GO BRONCOS!

Brady is all teeth today?

[Magnificent Seven]

Raiders' WR Michael Crabtree is definitely out for today's game. Broncos got an advantage!

[Nomad]

Alright, alright, alright....let's get this game going, and kick some Raider ass.

[Nomad]

Dammit.....They just switched to Jets/Jags game.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Dammit.....They just switched to Jets/Jags game.

Same here, AND I live HERE!!!!!!!!!

[wayninja]

Aren't you getting the banners saying that "due to nfl contracts, we are about to switch to Broncos..."

[BroncoWave]

Get these worthless Jags and Jets off my TV.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

The Jets and Jags in OT instead of the Denver game=awesome!

[wayninja]

Just saw my son's commercial! Awesome!

[BORDERLINE]

Let’s goooooo. Ready for Denver to put it to them

[Denver Native (Carol)]

:salute:GO BRONCOS:salute:

[BroncoWave]

Man I love missing the Broncos start so I can watch the ****ing Jets and Jags tie. :tsk:

[Az Snake]

Go Broncos !!!

[wayninja]

Well, not a great start.

[Nomad]

Good lawd...already a sack on Siemian.

[wayninja]

3rd and long draw. I didn't see that coming.

[Nomad]

I got to see a little bit of the game on the red zone channel.

[Nomad]

:defense: forcing a Raiders punt.

[wayninja]

Nice throw by Siemian!

[wayninja]

WTF???

No flag???

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Romo is such a breath of fresh air compared to Simms.

[BORDERLINE]

PI !!!! Refs!!!

[wayninja]

I think I've finally succeeded in driving everyone out of the gameday thread.

MY POWER IS LIMITLESS....

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Guess it is ok now to tackle the receiver before the ball gets there??????

[wayninja]

Wow, we came down with a lucky grab ball!

[Freyaka]

It is a bummer we didn't get a PI call there, that was one of the best passes I've seen from Trevor, 45 yards on a dime.

[Nomad]

You'll have to be our play by play guy until we get this crap game off with the Jets/Jags.

[AgentOrange]

Bennie's playing like a hero today!

[Freyaka]

Risky pass there Trev...

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Still trying to slow down my racing heart.

[sneakers]

broncs looking good on offense so far

[Nomad]

Thank you, Jets.

[Freyaka]

T-money with a few good passes so far.

[wayninja]

Touchdown Derby!!!!

[AgentOrange]

Holy crap Derby! What a one-handed catch for a TD!!!

[Denver Native (Carol)]

[sneakers]

holy poop!

[wayninja]

Wow, that was a sick catch. Odell Beckham Derby shit right there.

[Freyaka]

Why the hell has Debry not played like this before HOLY COW!

[BORDERLINE]

Beautiful catch and play calling plus execution on this drive!!!!

[DenBronx]

What an amazing catch by Derby!

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

That is one of the most impressive catches I've seen. Magnificent from Derby!

[Freyaka]

That's what we've been missing is good TE play. Keep it up Derby!

[BroncoWave]

Holy crap just saw the replay of the catch. Awesome.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Jim Nanzt giving Derby “style points” :lol:

:salute::defense::defense::defense::salute:

[wayninja]

Broncos D playing ANGRY. You won't like them when they are angry...

[Jaws]

Wow!

[wayninja]

Wow... If that stands, great return!

[Nomad]

That was exciting. Of course, the refs got to get involved.

[Tned]

Lame ass CBS and DirecTV. CBS showing the end of the OT game which wasn't even the game planned for two of the three channels on DirecTV. Not only that, but normally if that happens, they will lift the blackout so we can watch on NFLST until the first commercial after CBS switches to the game. Not this time.

I've never had a situation where I couldn't watch it either on the local channel or NFLST.

Pissed.

[AgentOrange]

Ugh. Great run back coming back.

[wayninja]

Aaaaaand, it doesn't stand. Shocked at 3 flags in 3 plays.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

I hate big returns that come back because of stupid illegal blocks before the returner even fields the ball.

Whoever blew up that Raider with that block though...

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Great run back sucks it didn’t count but nice to see. Time to impose our will on these raiders. The run game needs to get going!!!

They declined the illegal block and took holding.

At least no one had to see Lynchs fat butt kneeling during the anthem.

[Freyaka]

Holy crap just saw the replay of the catch. Awesome.

It was honestly a poor throw on Trevor's part but Derby was all over it.

Yeap. That happened to me too. It is pure crap. They go to the damn Jets Jags game and have to cover the entire damn OT. Missed half of the 1st quarter.

[wayninja]

So far, TS is just picking them apart.

[wayninja]

It was honestly a poor throw on Trevor's part but Derby was all over it.

To be honest, feels like he was showing off a bit. Still, it was awesome.

[BroncoWave]

Man, JC almost broke that one.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Great run Jamaal

[AgentOrange]

Carter got both penalties. Trying to play like a Raider

[MOtorboat]

I don't ever remember that type of speed in a Broncos uniform. That's cool.

[ShaneFalco]

https://twitter.com/byesline/status/914590949233135623

[BroncoWave]

Easy PI call there.

[AgentOrange]

Trev's scaring me a bit with these throws. Interception forthcoming if he's not careful

[wayninja]

Easy PI call there.

It was easy the last time too, but they didn't call it. Already consistently inconsistent.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

This offense is so much better than last year.

[BroncoWave]

It was easy the last time too, but they didn't call it. Already consistently inconsistent.

I didn't see that one so as far as I'm concerned it didn't happen!

[wayninja]

False start, at home, in redzone, on 3rd down.

Embarrassing.

[Freyaka]

ugly finish to that drive...

[wayninja]

10-0 good guys.

I'll take it.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

False start, at home, in redzone, on 3rd down.

Embarrassing.

“Embarrassing “ is what Raiders fans are thinking right now.

[AgentOrange]

I'll take 10-0 against the Raiders in the first quarter, TYVM :D

[ShaneFalco]

Trigga Trev

HE DA GUNSLINGER ROUND HERE PARTS

[wayninja]

This offense is so much better than last year.

That's not a very high bar. But it's not only better, it's actually pretty decent.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Would've been nice to get 6 there but another promising offensive drive. Gotta start finishing in the RZ though.

[BORDERLINE]

Can’t be too upset there. 10-0 points are points. I smell a pick coming for The No Fly

[wayninja]

Kicker makes a good wall...

[AgentOrange]

What the heck ST. Don't make McManus tackle

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

That's not a very high bar. But it's not only better, it's actually pretty decent.

Agreed

[wayninja]

What the heck ST. Don't make McManus tackle

They didn't... he just kinda stood there and the Raider sorta didn't know what to do and just kinda half-heartedly tried to run through him.

It was like an awkward meeting of exes on the street...

[Nomad]

good job :defense:

[wayninja]

Orange crush in full effect!

[DenBronx]

Can’t be too upset there. 10-0 points are points. I smell a pick coming for The No Fly

That almost just happened.

[Freyaka]

No Fly Zone is playing a lot better this week.

[AgentOrange]

They didn't... he just kinda stood there and the Raider sorta didn't know what to do and just kinda half-heartedly tried to run through him.

It was like an awkward meeting of exes on the street...

That made me LOL

[Freyaka]

We've had garbage starting field position today, but we've done pretty good with it. Hope we can put together another good drive.

[LawDog]

Their punter, King, had some great backspin with that 8 iron...

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Jaded, did you see that block by Paradis?!

Jaded is speechless right now.

[AgentOrange]

Close call on 3rd & 1. Glad they got the first. Let's go Broncos!!

[Freyaka]

Jaded, did you see that block by Paradis?!

Jaded is speechless right now.

This won't get old anytime soon :D

[wayninja]

Janovich run on 2nd and 10... interesting.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Look the ball in!

[wayninja]

Derby makes a crazy catch, then drops a softball... oh well..

[AgentOrange]

Derby derped

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Janovich run on 2nd and 10... interesting.

That was Booker, Jano blocked

[Freyaka]

Alright, lets get that ball back D.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Derby makes a crazy catch, then drops a softball... oh well..



Derby derped


Law of averages...

[wayninja]

That was Booker, Jano blocked

Oh, I thought he had the ball, need to get my eyes checked.

[Freyaka]

1st 1st down of the game. :D

[Freyaka]

Simmons is playing better today.

[Nomad]

Damn fine job :defense:

[wayninja]

Damn... defense stuffs beastmode.

[AgentOrange]

Great stop D!! :defense:

[BroncoWave]

That hard D got my d hard!

[sneakers]

thank you defense,

nice to see both sides of the ball

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Derek Wolfe. The end.

[BORDERLINE]

#nobeastmode!!!! Hell yeah defense!!!! Now offense make them pay!!!!

[Freyaka]

So let me get this straight, you are going to gamble and go for it, and you are going to run the ball against this defense?

:D :D :D

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Man, that's a huge defensive stand. The interior of our line is a monster.

[sneakers]

That hard D got my d hard!

oh dear

[GEM]

At the game, that 4th down was friggen loud!

[wayninja]

oh dear

That's what she said! My wife I mean. Watching the game.

[AgentOrange]

That hard D got my d hard!

tmi tmi tmi tmi tmi...(ears covered) la la la la la la la

[Freyaka]

At the game, that 4th down was friggen loud!

Lucky! I'll be at the game in KC in a few weeks.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Charles is in pain. Let’s just hope it’s a minor ding.

[Broncoknight30]

Didn't like the way JC was limping there.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Yeah, I didn't like that hit to the leg Charles took.

[AgentOrange]

Leary getting chippy. Raiders being Raiders

[wayninja]

I didn't get a good view of the hit. Clean?

[wayninja]

Nice spin by CJ to turn 5 into 8.

[AgentOrange]

I didn't get a good view of the hit. Clean?

Yeah, just happened to hit him in the knee as he whiffed low

[BroncoWave]

Great play!

[AgentOrange]

Bennie working for the game ball today

[wayninja]

Nice ST play. I keep saying that. Hard to get used to.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Great job Bennie

[BORDERLINE]

Beautiful punt. Damn I rarely say that.

[Freyaka]

Von's getting ready to do the safety dance.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Nice job by Fowler. Good punt from Dixon too.

[wayninja]

Welp. That sucked.

[BroncoWave]

Are you ****ing kidding me? Dominating this game and that happens?

[Freyaka]

I don't like that our offense is losing steam while theirs is finally starting to gain some... Get this ball back and put a few more points on the board.

[Nomad]

Well damn.

[AgentOrange]

Well hell...that sucked

[MOtorboat]

Whoops.

[Freyaka]

CRAP! Great...fricken raiders are you kidding me??

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Well, that sure changes the complexion of this game. Brutal.

[DenBronx]

From the 1 yard line. Good job no fly zone. Guess saving 3 mill on TJ Ward was worth it.

[BORDERLINE]

Damn D Stew did not expect that. Carr just airballed it and the catch was legit. Von and Shaq need to put on the pressure!!!

[Freyaka]

From the 1 yard line. Good job no fly zone. Guess saving 3 mill on TJ Ward was worth it.

Oh come on...Because Ward was going to stop that... Quit with the hyperbole...

[Nomad]

I don't like that our offense is losing steam while theirs is finally starting to gain some... Get this ball back and put a few more points on the board.

Yeah, the offense is stalling. Definitely need points on this drive, and kill the clock. Raiders get the ball first after in second half.

[BORDERLINE]

Let’s get 7 here fellas!!!

[wayninja]

Lack of pass rush is becoming an issue. Carr had all day on that one.

[Freyaka]

Lack of pass rush is becoming an issue. Carr had all day on that one.

That's the biggest concern and losing Ward isn't the reason we can't get to QB's...

[BroncoWave]

That's one of those throws you see QBs overthrow 9 times out of 10. Carr just dropped it in perfectly. Gotta give him credit.

[wayninja]

That's one of those throws you see QBs overthrow 9 times out of 10. Carr just dropped it in perfectly. Gotta give him credit.

That's true, but it didn't help that he literally didn't have to move at all the entire time.

[AgentOrange]

Booker looking good making some tough runs.

[Freyaka]

Booker looking decent.

[BroncoWave]

How TF do you hold on such a short freaking play?

[wayninja]

Wow... that ******* sucks.... from 3rd and 1 to 3rd and 11?

[Freyaka]

Well that will stall the drive... Good job Leary.

[AgentOrange]

That's a hinky penalty call on super short yardage

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

Refs threw that flag well after the play ended. What a ******* joke.

[MOtorboat]

How TF do you hold on such a short freaking play?

And a scrum.

:whoknows:

[tomjonesrocks]

Drive killing hold call on 3rd and 1. Awesome.

[BORDERLINE]

Penalty on a. Inside run. Holding ??!!! Gtfoh

[Freyaka]

Drive killing hold call on 3rd and 1. Awesome.

I expect a pick 6 here...

[wayninja]

God wants us to win.

[AgentOrange]

Charles in charge

[Freyaka]

Yay, the reverse jinx worked.... at least that's my story.

[wayninja]

Charles in charge

Yep, and allysa milano throwing to him.

:D

[Freyaka]

Yep, and allysa milano throwing to him.

:D

I'd watch it. She's hot!

[AgentOrange]

Stahp with the penalties for all that's good in the world!

[tomjonesrocks]

I don’t understand where Siemian is going with the ball...

[wayninja]

that was ******* awful

[BroncoWave]

Throw the damn ball you idiot.

[Nomad]

Not good

[Freyaka]

Yay! Our o-line is just the bestest ever...

[DenBronx]

I am really getting tired of the play calling.

[BroncoWave]

Yay! Our o-line is just the bestest ever...

Siemian had all day on that play. You can't expect them to hold off the pass rush all day.

[Freyaka]

Siemian had all day on that play. You can't expect them to hold off the pass rush all day.

I'll take your word for it...

[wayninja]

A good 1st quarter followed by a bad 2nd. So... we should have a good 3rd, right?

[BORDERLINE]

Time for Von Miller to get his name called. Carr feels like he will force it this defense needs to play them tight and be opportunistic

[DenBronx]

Siemian had all day on that play. You can't expect them to hold off the pass rush all day.

I'll take your word for it...

He did have all day so quit with the hyperbole.

[AgentOrange]

Siemian had all day on that play. You can't expect them to hold off the pass rush all day.

Methinks you've been spoiled by crappy O-line play for too long.

[Freyaka]

A good 1st quarter followed by a bad 2nd. So... we should have a good 3rd, right?

I hope so. I started getting a really bad feeling about this game...Their offense has the momentum now.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

A good 1st quarter followed by a bad 2nd. So... we should have a good 3rd, right?

Which means we'll continue the trend of having our usual 4th quarters. Exciting.

[BroncoWave]

Methinks you've been spoiled by crappy O-line play for too long.

He had plenty of time to make a throw.

[Freyaka]

Nice play there Broby!

[wayninja]

I hope so. I started getting a really bad feeling about this game...Their offense has the momentum now.

Wave, do you think they have the momentum?

[Nomad]

BRONCOS will regroup, and dominate the second half.

[AgentOrange]

He had plenty of time to make a throw.

True, he should have gotten rid of it in that amount of time. But that's not great O-line play when he has to scramble around to keep from getting sacked.

[Edmonton Bronco Fan]

That's so frustrating. Joseph needs to get his head screwed on straight and trust the D there.

[Freyaka]

Nostraromo.

[MOtorboat]

That was an ugly quarter all the way around.

[wayninja]

That was an ugly quarter all the way around.

Special teams played well...

So... there's that.

[Freyaka]

That was an ugly quarter all the way around.

The Rosie O'Donnell of quarters that one was...

[spikerman]

Joseph shows that he is a rookie when it comes to clock management.

[wayninja]

The Rosie O'Donnell of quarters that one was...

Yes. The quarter was indeed a washed up hack comic lesbian of a quarter.

[Freyaka]

Joseph shows that he is a rookie when it comes to clock management.

Still better at clock management than the Red Walrus in KC.

[spikerman]

Sorry Top and Tned, but I still don’t think I see enough from TS. He has to be better.

[Nomad]

Joseph shows that he is a rookie when it comes to clock management.

Learning curve.

[LawDog]

I think we can still win this.

[wayninja]

I think we can still win this.

Woah, woah, woah. Let's not go crazy.

[Freyaka]

I think we can still win this.

I mean obviously...I just hate letting the Raiders keep it close.

[Nomad]

I think we can still win this.

Oh yeah.

[tomjonesrocks]

The Tony Romo hype is warranted. He is so much better than Simms there’s no comparison.

[Nomad]

Sorry Top and Tned, but I still don’t think I see enough from TS. He has to be better.

Hopefully he didn't exhaust all his talent in the Dallas game.

[Freyaka]

Hopefully 1st Quarter Trevor shows up. Granted, not all of the 2nd quarter was on him...this worthless freaking penalties didn't do us any favors. If you have to make TS get 10 yards on third down, it's going to happen like 3 out of 10 times...

[wayninja]

Sorry Top and Tned, but I still don’t think I see enough from TS. He has to be better.

It's back to consistency issues for me. Flashes of good and bad. Too much mixed bag.

[Freyaka]

It's back to consistency issues for me. Flashes of good and bad. Too much mixed bag.

I agree, and that's why i'm starting to get frustrated with him, but you kind of expect consistency issues out of most second year starting QB's. That doesn't necessarily mean he can't grow past it. Also doesn't mean that he will ever grow past it.

[wayninja]

The Tony Romo hype is warranted. He is so much better than Simms there’s no comparison.

I never had a problem with Simms like some do. Having said that, Romo is doing great.

[Freyaka]

I never had a problem with Simms like some do. Having said that, Romo is doing great.

I hated simms personally, but Romo, he's good for now. We'll find a reason to turn on him eventually.

[BORDERLINE]

Von Miller I need to hear your name being called

[AgentOrange]

Hey fans get your butts back in those seats and make some NOISE!!

[wayninja]

Tornado's in the east and snow in the west?

[Nomad]

BRONCOS need to get at least one turnover this half.

[wayninja]

We are getting lucky that Carr is not throwing well.

[wayninja]

Lynch is getting absolutely smashed.

[AgentOrange]

Peko beasting on beastmode

[wayninja]

Uh, oh, Wolfe is DOWN!

[BORDERLINE]

We cannot lose Wolfe. He’s a major key

[MOtorboat]

Again.

[Tned]

Sorry Top and Tned, but I still don’t think I see enough from TS. He has to be better.

Romo seems to disagree with you. As he said, and is obvious to most of us, he simply needs some "average" NFL pass protection.

[Freyaka]

Uh, oh, Wolfe is DOWN!

Yup, and they are examining his knee, hope it's ok. Looks ok walking off.

[Nomad]

Good job :defense:

[Broncoknight30]

Shocked. Wolfe is injured.

[AgentOrange]

Parks has actually looked good today

[Freyaka]

Shocked. Wolfe is injured.

You've been waiting 4 games to say that I'm guessing?

[wayninja]

Yup, and they are examining his knee, hope it's ok. Looks ok walking off.

Troy Renck on twitter reported that it appeared to be ankle

My fault. I forgot that Siemian can’t be at fault. I’ll try to do better.

[AgentOrange]

Nice run CJ!!!

[Nomad]

Nice, CJ!

[wayninja]

CJ makes running look so painful
