Broncos Gameday Thread: Broncos vs Colts 10/27/19

[sneakers]

Ok. Real talk time. Finishing with an 11-5 record is not a bad season.

This is a game that the Broncos can and will win! That turf field will make Phil Lindsay even quicker and faster!

Go Broncos!!

[sneakers]

Why that image so large? lol

[Davii]

Go Broncos!

[UnderArmour]

Why that image so large? lol
Because the ghost of Brock Osweiler looms large over the Broncos quarterback room.

[underrated29]

I'd like to see the defense actually play well

[Hawgdriver]

I'd like to see Courtland go off. That's all.

[Nomad]

I'd like to see Flacco give a damn, and the offensive line do their jobs.

[BroncoWave]

Can we call Brock out of retirement? I'd take him over Flacco today.

[Davii]

Can we call Brock out of retirement? I'd take him over Flacco today.

Maybe we can call Flacco out of retirement?

[MasterShake]

Just because I’m mad doesn’t mean I don’t care. Go Broncos.

[spikerman]

Man, I miss the old logo.

[Northman]

Ill just treat the rest of the season as preseason. Not expecting anymore wins this year. Well, maybe the Chargers game. Lol

[Northman]

Man, I miss the old logo.

I wish those helmets were our fulltime helmets.

that means james is up. . . could this be the day bolles gets benched?


let's get a win, donkeys. . .

It's about that time. Go Broncos!

:salute:GO BRONCOS:salute:

[Nomad]

Not good when your kicker has to make the tackle.

[Northman]

I would have gone for it.

[spikerman]

I obviously don’t know what his responsibilities are, but Miller made almost no effort to get to Brissett on that 3rd down.

[Northman]

I obviously don’t know what his responsibilities are, but Miller made almost no effort to get to Brissett on that 3rd down.

I think it was just a 3 man rush and he had at least 2 guys on him. At least what i saw.

[MOtorboat]

I obviously don’t know what his responsibilities are, but Miller made almost no effort to get to Brissett on that 3rd down.

Just passive aggressive scheme we’ve seen most of the season.

[spikerman]

Ahhh, there’s the patented 3 yard pass on 3rd and 6.

[MOtorboat]

Ahhh, there’s the patented 3 yard pass on 3rd and 6.

At least they threw a pass to Janovich?

[chazoe60]

Our team is low IQ. On that punt a DL jumped all the way into the NZ and our OL just watched him do it. All they had to do was jump and we get a 1st down. It's little shit like that that bothers me.

[VonDoom]

Ahhh, there’s the patented 3 yard pass on 3rd and 6.

I think three yards is a generous estimate there

[GEM]

Ice crap has property mgmt calls coming in. Unable to pay attention first few minutes. Bolles starting?

[MOtorboat]

Ice crap has property mgmt calls coming in. Unable to pay attention first few minutes. Bolles starting?

Yes.

[GEM]

Nice hesitation, Davis. Twit.

[MOtorboat]

I hope everyone started Marlon Mack in their fantasy teams!

[Nomad]

Sounds like the Broncos doing Bronco things. LoL.

[Northman]

Brissett is so strong that Davis gets hurt tackling him. LMAO

[GEM]

Isn't Davis the one with broken screws in his foot?

[Northman]

Isn't Davis the one with broken screws in his foot?

Denver likes broken down players, they are in their prime.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Good for Von

[Northman]

3 sacks on the year.

[wayninja]

I forgot it was the early game... how we look?

[Nomad]

Redzone isn't giving the Bronco game any love. LoL.

[GEM]

Spence is boring. Fair catch or no gain. Every time.

[MOtorboat]

Wow. It only took eight games for them to move Miller around to find the best matchup...

[GEM]

I forgot it was the early game... how we look?

How you think? :lol:

[MOtorboat]

Redzone isn't giving the Bronco game any love. LoL.

A missed field goal and three punts. Not much to get excited about.

[spikerman]

A missed field goal and three punts. Not much to get excited about.

At least it was the other team missing.

[wayninja]

Ah, I see we are looking to come back from a 0-0 tie.

[Northman]

Flacco a bit off on his passes so far.

[MOtorboat]

This team just can’t click all at the same time. Good play call, line blocks well, Flacco makes a good throw to an open receiver ... Sutton drops it.

[spikerman]

Denver actually threw two passes in a row. Both incomplete, but.... baby steps.

[wayninja]

How you think? :lol:

Like... champ...ions?

[Northman]

Good play.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Nice play

[wayninja]

That play to spencer looked nice!

[Elevation inc]

Best movement from Flacco in awhile....

[MOtorboat]

I’m celebrating first downs. Don’t judge me.

[Northman]

Now we are clicking, but can we get it into the endzone.

[Elevation inc]

It’s amazing how the run game opens up when you give a threat of pass....

[wayninja]

Is Lindsay hurt?

[Northman]

Then we get cute and lose yardage. lol

[Northman]

Is Lindsay hurt?

Nah, he's just not as powerful a runner as Freeman.

[MOtorboat]

Now we are clicking, but can we get it into the endzone.

Hold on. Let’s just see if they can get on the Colts’ side of the field, first.

[spikerman]

Fant caught it!!!

[Northman]

Holy shit, Fant caught a pass!!!!

[wayninja]

Nah, he's just not as powerful a runner as Freeman.

Or Spencer?

[Nomad]

:laugh:

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Makes a major difference when the OL is doing what they SHOULD do

[Cugel]

Jet sweep: "Well, what we were doing was working, so let's do something else."

[MOtorboat]

Hold on. Let’s just see if they can get on the Colts’ side of the field, first.

Ok. Now the Red Zone.

[Hawgdriver]

Look at this team! Makes you want to believe!

[Bronco4ever]

Really surprised by this. Hopefully we can keep this play up.

[MOtorboat]

Look at this team! Makes you want to believe!

They do this about once a game.

#Broncos Fant with 17-yard reception. He was determined to bounce back. Told me Monday that last Thursday's game was the worst of his life. Again, for his confidence, good start to find soft spot in zone and deliver catch. #Denver7

[Nomad]

I thought the Broncos were in the redzone?

[GEM]

Yawn.

[Northman]

There we go, sack o rama about to start.

[MOtorboat]

Ok. Now the Red Zone.

There’s always next time! :whoknows:

[dogfish]

bolles, again. . . shocking development, i tell ya. . .

[MOtorboat]

I thought the Broncos were in the redzone?

We’re gonna need a bigger boat.

[chazoe60]

:laugh::laugh: Garrett Bolles trucked like a rag doll. He is so terrible.

[spikerman]

Did you see the look on Flacco’s face? He was furious! Either that or he was thinking about an article he read in the Wall Street Journal.

[Nomad]

On the bright side of things, Broncos aren't as bad as the Bengals. :D

[spikerman]

On the bright side of things, Broncos aren't as bad as the Bengals. :D

Pick 11 random board members and we aren’t as bad as the Bengals.

[Northman]

Did you see the look on Flacco’s face? He was furious! Either that or he was thinking about an article he read in the Wall Street Journal.

How could you tell? His face is the same for everything. :laugh:

[spikerman]

How could you tell? His face is the same for everything. :laugh:

That’s my point.

[MOtorboat]

We’re in the red zone!

[wayninja]

Did the announcers suggest that the Colts were pushed into the Center? By whom?

[Northman]

Did we go for it on 4th?

[Elevation inc]

Lol our offense looks so slow constantly....we have to capitalize here

[MOtorboat]

Did we go for it on 4th?

They hit the center on the field goal, personal foul, first down.

[wayninja]

Did we go for it on 4th?

No, we kicked a FG, but there was a personal foul against our Center... I don't think I've seen that rule before. You aren't allowed to hit the center when he's snapping the ball or something on a FG attempt?

[Northman]

Penalties bailing us out.

[spikerman]

The statue of David is more mobile.

[Elevation inc]

Lol lucky day so far for us

[Nomad]

Oh my goodness. :tsk:

[wayninja]

Flacco completed one!

[AgentOrange]

Lol our offense looks so slow constantly....we have to capitalize here
If by "capitalize" you mean bailed out by the refs, you are correct

[Northman]

Flacco panicking so easily... lmao

[GEM]

Oh boy, he connects with more fans than players. :lol:

[Nomad]

Dan Fouts. His personality is about like cardboard.

[Elevation inc]

God I hate our offense....

[spikerman]

Terrible red zone offense.

[wayninja]

They could give us 20 downs and we wouldn't convert.

[chazoe60]

Flacco was either saying "repeat that" or "this offense is crazy".

[AgentOrange]

lol at the NFL not letting fans keep the balls. As if they can't afford it.

[Bronco4ever]

Should’ve just ran it 3 straight times.

[Elevation inc]

What a crappy offense we have

[GEM]

Fant had to be 10 ft tall to catch that overthrown pos pass.

[dogfish]

the refs are our best offensive weapon. . . we should hire spiker as our OC. . .

[VonDoom]

Sprinkle in a few defensive penalties and we can get three points

[MOtorboat]

Not overly inspiring, is it?

[AgentOrange]

Not overly inspiring, is it?

I'm in awe....as in awe shit.

[Northman]

I dont know why i keep torturing myself by switching back to the game. Its not on that much here but we have it today and im still more interested in watching the RZ than watching our own game.

[LawDog]

Just wanted to check in and confirm that I am still so very over the Flacco experiment. He’s just awful.

Have a great day Broncos fans!!!

[spikerman]

the refs are our best offensive weapon. . . we should hire spiker as our OC. . .

I firmly believe I could call a better game.

[spikerman]

What a crappy offense we have

You, sir, insult crap.

[spikerman]

That was not DPI. You can have your hand on him. There was no restriction.

[Northman]

Seeing how Tannehill has played for Tenn i wonder what that means for Mariota.

[Bronco4ever]

Just wanted to check in and confirm that I am still so very over the Flacco experiment. He’s just awful.

But he’s entering his prime! :confused:

[Elevation inc]

Down goes are injury prone RT

[AgentOrange]

Oh jeez, James down again. Hello snakebite.

[Nomad]

But he’s entering his prime! :confused:

Where'd you hear that?

[GEM]

He's so ******* soft. Big money for a dude who is made of glass.

[spikerman]

Down goes are injury prone RT

You wanna take another shot at this?

[LawDog]

But he’s entering his prime! :confused:

Hell of a low bar for “prime”.

[MOtorboat]

Welp, the hope that Bolles ever get benched just went up in smoke. James and Callahan signings are going to end up being bad.

[dogfish]

james and callahan. . . pfft! not sure who's the director of pro scouting-- but whoever it is, his ass needs to be fired tomorrow. . .

[Northman]

Where'd you hear that?

Elway.

[UnderArmour]

Signing high-price free agents is stupid. Maybe we needed a RT, but man this has been brutal.

[dogfish]

You wanna take another shot at this?

:laugh:

[VonDoom]

That’s probably the last we see of James for a while. Good FA investment

[Nomad]

Elway.

He may want to reevaluate that comment. :laugh:

[GEM]

james and callahan. . . pfft! not sure who's the director of pro scouting-- but whoever it is, his ass needs to be fired tomorrow. . .

Callahan is the dude with broken screws in his foot. He'll never be right. But they ain't takin bout that in dove valley.

Huh?

Huh?

Autocorrect was not your friend.

[MOtorboat]

Huh?

*our

[spikerman]

Originally it also said “joes” instead of “goes.”

[Northman]

How sad is it that even the Bills are better than we are. Lol

[GEM]

Nice Sutton!

[MOtorboat]

Explosive play alert!

[AgentOrange]

Great grab and run Sutton!

[Elevation inc]

Who f’in cares about the use of are or our on a f’in message board lol

[GEM]

Of course he's out, if the guy needs a bandaid, he ain't playing.

[UnderArmour]

Who f’in cares about the use of are or our on a f’in message board lol

Me.

[Hawgdriver]

That stiffarm! Shane, we need a gif!

[Elevation inc]

Smart FA decisions not a thing denver knows.....

[chazoe60]

Who f’in cares about the use of are or our on a f’in message board lol

It's all of are responsibility to make sure are standards our upheld.

[spikerman]

Even the cameramen are struggling, but I think they’re as surprised as we are when Denver throws it down the field.

[wayninja]

That stiffarm by Sutton was boss

[Elevation inc]

Me.


Waaaahhhh

[AgentOrange]

Wait...did Flacco just run for a 1st down?

[spikerman]

Even the cameramen are struggling, but I think they’re as surprised as we are when Denver throws it down the field.

[dogfish]

flacco says, "watch this, elevation!"

:lol::lol:

[Mike]

Of course he's out, if the guy needs a bandaid, he ain't playing.

If you want to make yourself sick, look at the guaranteed money in his contract and how much we are paying an injury prone player to not play.

[GEM]

Torn acl for $500, Alex.

[Mike]

IRman

[Elevation inc]

flacco says, "watch this, elevation!"

:lol::lol:

Good for him cause he almost took a sack holding the ball for 4 seconds lol

[GEM]

If you want to make yourself sick, look at the guaranteed money in his contract and how much we are paying an injury prone player to not play.

I know. It's disgusting. He could have come back 2 weeks ago and wouldn't. He's a bitch on top of being injury prone.

[Cugel]

OH, CRAP! That didn't take long. Juwann James lasts 1/4 and he's gone for the rest of the season with a recurrence of his lingering knee issue. His knee flared up, and he couldn't play, then they rehabbed him desperately to get back on the field. And he collapsed in the first quarter of his first game back.

Now they're back to Wilkinson at RT which means Garrett Bolles will finish the entire season as your starting LT. :tsk:

[underrated29]

Poor irman. That's dumb luck and looks like it hurts so bad!

[spikerman]

Sigh.

[Nomad]

Alright. Broncos in the redzone.

[AgentOrange]

Who the hell was he throwing to??

[GEM]

Flunko thinks his wr's are 10 ft tall.

[Elevation inc]

Lol wtf Flacco. Hey dog Flacco said sike watch this instead

[Bronco4ever]

Death by field goals.

[wayninja]

And with that kick, we are now beating the Colorado Avalanche in points for October!

[spikerman]

Every time Denver gets into the red zone they should intentionally commit a penalty because there is no way they’re scoring from there.

[Nomad]

Broncos are winning. :D

[Hawgdriver]

This McManus offense will not be denied!

[GEM]

Funny thinking about the colts shitting on Manning for the shiny new guy. New guy gets them nothing while broken down manning went to 2 more sb's and won one. :laugh: Suck for luck worked out well for them. The best part of that... my brother in law is a colt fan. :D

[UnderArmour]

I'm starting to fall in love with this defense.

[Hawgdriver]

Shelby Harris with supermassive black hole impression.

[Elevation inc]

These announcers are horrible lol

[wayninja]

I'm starting to fall in love with this defense.

Be careful, they will cheat on you.

I've never liked Iron Eagle.

Fouts is way worse than Eagle is IMO.

[Hawgdriver]

I've never liked Iron Eagle.

Even the walkman scene?

[chazoe60]

That punt reminded me of the Rifle football game Friday night. Basalt punted the ball out of bounds and a guy standing about 3 yards out of bounds caught the ball and the ref spotted the ball about 2 yards past where the guy still stand with the ball caught it. :laugh: yeah I'd say that spotting an OOB punt is an inexact science.

It was still the right decision. Luck wasn't their problem, it was the team they put around him. Manning wouldn't have led those teams to titles either.

[AgentOrange]

Fainting goat

[spikerman]

Flacco wasn’t even looking downfield on that.

[Mike]

Sutton was wide open

[VonDoom]

We’re not even pretending we want to score a TD on this drive, huh?

[Elevation inc]

Flacco sucks so bad....

[BroncoWave]

Flacco is such a worthless piece of shit. He should apologize to the trees in Denver for wasting the oxygen they produce.

[wayninja]

let's see how we **** this up.

[Nomad]

let's see how we **** this up.

Back in the rdzone?

No, keeping the colts off the board with 20 seconds left, in their own territory and no timeouts.

Spoiler: We ****** it up.

[MOtorboat]

Back in the rdzone?

Not exactly.

[Elevation inc]

Thank god we deferred to come back out on offense to beast in the 2nd half :lol:

The difference between us and the Colts in terms of urgency in the last two minutes was striking

His time has passed. You get an atta boy for trying to tell us.

[BroncoWave]

You're a good family man too, I don't want you playing QB for the broncos. Although you probably couldn't be much worse than Sacko.

[wayninja]

What a catch!

[AgentOrange]

Sneaked that one in to Sutton

[chazoe60]

Fant is showing up a little today. How about that?

[Elevation inc]

His time has passed. You get an atta boy for trying to tell us.

I don’t want an atta boy I want a new QB lol

Horrible play design but bailed out by penalty

[Nomad]

He got hurt, and is still on IR. When does he come off?

[wayninja]

Refs are destroying the colts!

[AgentOrange]

Penalties still our best offence

Good draw of dpi by Sutton, horrible throw by flacco

[wayninja]

And... Boom goes the dynamite.

Ermagerd! A touchdown!

That one was pretty bad. That might have been a TD without that hold.

Not soon enough

[Elevation inc]

A TD holy crap go figure....

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Great Broncos drive

[Elevation inc]

Can we break 20 points today?

[Northman]

Yea yea, we have seen this story before. We will give up the ghost in the end....

[Bronco4ever]

Sutton has been awesome today. He didn’t get the TD but he did all the heavy lifting.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Sutton has been awesome today. He didn’t get the TD but he did all the heavy lifting.

Don't forget Phillip

Flacco managed a drive for 7. He does enough to keep his job. If Lock does come back, I don't see Lock starting unless Flacco gets hurt.

[wayninja]

4 safeties seems like a tall order

[Elevation inc]

Flacco managed a drive for 7. He does enough to keep his job. If Lock does come back, I don't see Lock starting unless Flacco gets hurt.

QB’s make there money in the RZ and third down....Flacco don’t cut it. Glad he got us 7 points but if the last 6 games showed anything he is about to disappear again....

[UnderArmour]

Flacco managed a drive for 7. He does enough to keep his job. If Lock does come back, I don't see Lock starting unless Flacco gets hurt.

After what went down with Paxton Lynch, I don't want Lock out there until he earns enough respect from the team to be worthy of playing in a game.

[Elevation inc]

Finally a hold called for us?

[wayninja]

Flacco managed a drive for 7. He does enough to keep his job. If Lock does come back, I don't see Lock starting unless Flacco gets hurt.

Which puts most of us non-POS human beings in a very uncomfortable position....

[Nomad]

QB’s make there money in the RZ and third down....Flacco don’t cut it. Glad he got us 7 points but if the last 6 games showed anything he is about to disappear again....

I'm not disagreeing, but I don't see Flacco sitting unless he gets hurt. If every game was like he did against the Chiefs, then perhaps Fangio would entertain the idea.

[Elevation inc]

After what went down with Paxton Lynch, I don't want Lock out there until he earns enough respect from the team to be worthy of playing in a game.

I’m not so sure lock has showed the ignorance towards studying his craft Paxton did right off the bat.

But... the refs are on our team...?

[Elevation inc]

I'm not disagreeing, but I don't see Flacco sitting unless he gets hurt. If every game was like he did against the Chiefs, then perhaps Fangio would entertain the idea.


Your not fully wrong I doubt we see anyone other then Flacco...even if it’s warranted

[AgentOrange]

Refs sure getting screen time today

[chazoe60]

What just happened

[AgentOrange]

What just happened
Exactly

[spikerman]

Refs sure getting screen time today

You’re welcome, America. Refs tend to be the best looking people on the field.

[Elevation inc]

Would be nice to have that mobility at the QB position....

[Nomad]

After what went down with Paxton Lynch, I don't want Lock out there until he earns enough respect from the team to be worthy of playing in a game.

I'm not sure I want Lock playing behind that offensive line.

[Northman]

I'm not sure I want Lock playing behind that offensive line.

Never know, he might have a quicker release and more mobility. Flacco just compounds the line issues.

[MOtorboat]

They paid you plenty of money, Baker, you don’t have to squat at the stadium bro.

[AgentOrange]

Broncos have been doing better since I took of my Broncos shirt. Wonder what would happen if I got naked? :marchmellow:

[MOtorboat]

Who is Brown?

[chazoe60]

Fouts can not hide his disdain for the Broncos.

[MOtorboat]

They lined Freeman up at wide receiver. Freeman.

Denver got what it deserved there.

Depends where you're at. At home? Nothing. At a sports bar? Exciting shit.

[wayninja]

Lol, one of the funniest flops I've seen in a while.

[Elevation inc]

Lol what a flop....

[BroncoWave]

Who is Brown?

Fred Brown, former star WR at Mississippi State. He was really good there. Nice deep threat.

[AgentOrange]

Heads up for that Bronco to touch him after the flop.

[wayninja]

Fouts can not hide his disdain for the Broncos.

Other than suggesting that the colts got "pushed" into the center on that personal foul call, I haven't heard anything super egregious from him today.

[BroncoWave]

They lined Freeman up at wide receiver. Freeman.

Denver got what it deserved there.

As a Lindsay fantasy owner this year I understand your frustration with how we use him. Seems like every time he makes a nice play he comes off the field for the next 2-3 plays.

[MOtorboat]

Not as a Broncos fan?

His usage is baffling. They lined up the non-pass catching running back at receiver and lo and behold he drops the ball. This isn’t this hard, FFS.
