Practice / press conference notes - week 9 (Texans week)

[VonDoom]

It’s simultaneously Case Keenum and DT’s revenge game. TV maps up:

You can stream Sunday Ticket for only $100/year if you are a "student." Not sure it balances out the tuition I pay for my kids, but still.

I might look into it next year. I “cut the cord” this year and just use the Directv Now app and Netflix. I’ll have to see how much it is next year to add it. I figured I wouldn’t get to see many games live this year so I didn’t look into it. Turns out, I have a lot more Sundays off than I thought.

Hmm, Turner vs Watt and Bolles vs Clowney... Hogan might get to play this week. This is the toughest pass rush we’ve faced. I predict 10 sacks on Keenum. Also, the Honey Badger will be roaming in Center field. I also predict at least 2 picks for Keenum.

This will be our worst loss of the season to date. It will be worse than the Jets, whether or not DT plays.

Chris Harris Jr. said getting Su’a Cravens back is going to be “huge.”

"He’s a playmaker"

[LawDog]

So is Su'a being activated to take DT's spot on the roster? What did radio mean that a roster move was needed for Sunshine?

[BroncoWave]

So is Su'a being activated to take DT's spot on the roster? What did radio mean that a roster move was needed for Sunshine?

He was saying that to move sunshine up, a corresponding roster move would have to be made, so we'll see. Basically he's saying they want to bring him up, but they would have to get rid of someone's else to do it. Assuming that sua takes DT's spot that is.

[underrated29]

1. You guys need to get gearstv. Its $10 a month. All games all access. No wasting 100 a month on NFL sunday ticket or whatever.

2. Likely Isiah Mckenzie is going back down.

3. I am not sure we lose this game. I have this feeling we win for some weird reason. This is a game that we have no business winning, but we may just come out and win. If we lose, I doubt we get curb stomped.

I’ll be redzoning. I tried cutting cord, but my internet provider sucks as far as connection speed, so I got cable again. I may tune into Rams/Saints game.

I honestly didn't find any of the major cord cutting options (sling, YouTube tv, etc), worth the price compared to what is lose getting rid of cable. I would be saving maybe 10-20 bucks a month but for way fewer channels.

That sounds a little sketchy/too good to be true. Is the quality always great? Do you need super fast internet for it? Can you record things? Is it legal?

Well, hell. I have to travel to Vegas Sunday morning and it isn't playing there. Hopefully I can find a bar or restaurant showing the game.

I'm not staying on the strip... It's for a corporate meeting.

Yes, 1080p. Yes, fast internet is a must. ( I pay $75 mo w comcast for 250 speed internet but I also work from home and have a son who games). No recording. I have no clue. Probably not. I have a VPN for my internet. Does that help?

If you are so passionate that we need to run more that you are dropping F-bombs, why the hell aren't we running more? It's not some mystery, just call more freaking run plays.

It’s hard to run the ball a lot when you’re always behind

[Freyaka]

It’s hard to run the ball a lot when you’re always behind

It doesn't matter if you're behind...Run the ball. If we're talking 4th quarter and you're trying to work your way back into the game sure, but most weeks we have started dialing back our run game by halftime...We have to stay committed to the run, that's the most important thing right now. It keeps our defense off the field and more importantly their offense. We move the ball better when we run.

This notion that once you're trailing you just abandon the run is part of the problem...

The real question is can Garett Bolles spell? I have my doubts. Great to hear that Bolles won't be out there the entire game.


Good ole Garett "Mongo" Bolles.

Watch. We move Bolles to RT and Turner to LT and Bolles just dominates and all of those idiots who keep comparing Ramczyk to bolles (playing different positions) can shut up.

I don't think many (aside from those that are stubborn and dig their heels in) will complain.

Bolles sucks as an LT, because he basically just gets beat and decides to hold instead of letting his QB get killed (and I get that, but it sucks because it costs us a ton) If he can hold his own against lesser competition on the right side then he'll get no complaints from me.

Mongo only a pawn in the offensive line.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Broncos bolstered their secondary by activating safety Su’a Cravens from injured reserve on Friday, the team announced.

The Broncos also promoted wide receiver River Cracraft from the practice squad to the active roster and waived wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie.

Cravens is expected to play in his first regular-season game as a Bronco on Sunday against the Texans.

He should be a welcome addition, as safety Darian Stewart will miss the game with a neck injury.

They might, and Watson does take a lot of sacks, but he also can run and escape the pass rush. Hell, Mahomes isn’t even fast and he ran away from our pass rush.

The big thing is, all Houston has to do is get a lead. Any lead. When that happens, Musgrave will take he ball out of Lindsay’s hands and put it in Keenum’s and we will lose. The end. The only way we have any chance is to get some lucky turnovers early and an early lead like we did vs AZ. Then our dogs can hunt.
