    Default The Good and the Bad: Week 12

    I am numb right now. What a horrible loss.

    Good:

    Sanders - He was our entire offense tonight. Player of the game IMO.

    Miller - Co-player of the game. What a monster. It's a joke if he doesn't win DPOY.

    No Fly Zone - The whole secondary was beast tonight,minus Roby at the end.

    Siemian - He was a stylegod in the second half. What a performance.

    Bad:

    Special teams - What a total failure by that unit. Probably cost us the game.

    Norwood - Seriously cut that guy. He is trash. Yash level trash.

    Right tackles - My God they were bad. So bad.

    Kubiak - Kicking the fg was the worst possible decision. Basically guaranteed a loss. So horrible.

    I'm on my phone so didn't want to type too much tonight. Feel free to add.

    I thought Stephenson actually did a hell of a job handling Houston in the 2nd half.

    Maybe throw Derby in the 'good' category as well.
    Go Broncos!

    I loved the call to go for FG, was the only chance to win.

    And if he didn't take the big divot, but instead kicked as clean as he normally does, he would have had plenty of leg. I have no problem going for the win. The way the defense was playing they might not have even stopped the Chiefs if Broncos had punted.

    I think Kubes should have just went for it. Punting basically concedes a tie, hich puts Denver basically 2 games back to Oakland in the division.

    Bad: How many defensive penalties did we commit in KC's last drive in regulation and in overtime? There was quite a few offsides, a 12 men on the field, ect. We helped them move down the field tremendously on stupid penalties.

    Yeah, defense hadn't stopped much since Fowler's TD, I think they stopped them once. Which was in OT.

    No, it would've put us 1½ games back, so we'd only need to win one more game than Oakland, then beat them in Denver to end the year. If we do that now we'll STILL be tied, and split the head-to-head, so the next tiebreak is division record: Where tonight makes us 1-3.
    Oh, valid point. I thought you meant all starters, you should take the time to be more descriptive, don't be shy. Jaded

    Kubiak played to win the game. I will not fault a man for trying to win the game. C'est la vie.

    P.S. John Fox sucks

    They only had 55 seconds, there was absolutely no chance they score if we punt.

    I know we're supposed to "have faith" or whatever in every player on the team, but McMannus and almost every other kicker can't make a 62 yard FG in a game.

    They went 40 yards in three plays and didn't break a sweat.

    Besides, the point is they wanted to win the game, not tie it.

    If us punting the ball was ensuring a tie, I would have preferred a loss anyway. What a gutless way to go out.

    But time was about to run out on them, and even if the punt was a touchback that would leave them short of FG range.

    If we were ok with a long field goal, we should have just ran the ball, get the clock down to 5 seconds or so, and then kick it. We gave them an opportunity by not converting the passes.
