Thread: Broncos Gameday Thread *Super Bowl XLVIII Edition*: Broncos vs Seahawks 02/02/14

Ah...

...Denver certainly had a bad game, but needs to get more physical overall (starting in the trenches) to compete with the Seattle's & San Fran's of the league...

Also need to let Decker and Moreno go. Focus on that defense.

As bad as we look on defense I think thats the only logical thing to do.

Baileys gone...sad to say but he sucks now. Losing Miller and Harris hurt the defense more than anything.

Draft all defense...any free agents all defense and maybe a vet RB late into FA period.


This was just embarrassing all around.

This feels MUCH WORSE.

Denver supposedly had the most potent offense ever, which couldn't even come close to Elway's 80's units.

To lose like this is unspeakable.

I know it is crazy to say, but you have to look at coaching.

No. Keep the offense since it is good and focus on defense. Why take key cogs out of offense when it is not broken. Defense is broken.

You have to hand it to the Seattle Seahawks. That is about as dominating a game you are going to see. Sure, Denver played like absolute shit. But Seattle never let Denver recover. Contratulations, Seattle. You deserve to be World Champions.

As for the Broncos, we had a great year. This team has the tools to win a World Championship. They've got to really take this game as an example and become a mentally tougher football team. As great a year as Denver had, they were still horrible at turning the ball over. That has to be the focus in the off-season. Become a mentally tougher team.

Because we can't pay them.

Offense is going to cost $$. $$ that didn't deliver when it counted tonight. We need young, hungry, fast, and physical players and coaches that know how to get the best from them.

I was about the boys age when Denver was getting their ass handed to them in the 80's, it's weird but it kinda takes the sting out to watch my boys go thru what we went through in the 80's from another perspective.

I hve always been lukewarm about Fox. I think he's a great 'good ole boy' that does a great job managing everything, lets people do their jobs and holds them accountable, and keeps a great system in place for the team. I do wish we had something a little different running the team, like someone who was intimately involved on the offense or defensive side of the ball. Much like Carroll with the defense, of Sean Peyton with the offense, etc. I'm just not realy sure and how well Fox does with the X's and O's and the teaching of the game to the players. I could be wrong, but Seattle and SF have a plug and play system. It doesn't matter who plays the system works. That isn't the case with Fox.

Yes you can. If manning retires it is easy. Bailey retire you can afford them it is not hard. Go look at the salaries and cap hits for next season. It is not too hard. Just means a lot of one year cheap vet contracts

The offense scored 8 points today. That's it. That isn't good enough to win a SuperBowl. If all that money is only going to get us 8 points, you need to reallocate the money.

We lost today because of the offense.

Seattle's defense scored more points than Denver's offense.

To me, it started with the kickoff, and Holliday bringing the ball out for almost no yardage, rather than downing it, and the Broncos starting from the 20. He immediately put the Broncos in a hole.

Manning isn't retiring, and Champ probably isn't either.
