Thread: Broncos Gameday Thread: Broncos vs Giants 10/15/17

This BRONCOS offense is easy to figure out and gameplan for.....Dallas game was a fluke, fun to watch, but a fluke. The defense is what was the shocker. I'm not sure what's up with McManus, then again, offense needs to figure out how to score touchdowns.

If that was another team, we'd all be saying the refs got that no touchdown call correct. As much as I would have liked the touchdown, there wasn't clear video evidence that the ball crossed the goal line to overturn the call.

LG and C are not quite as bad, but they are not good either. They got their shit pushed in quite a bit last night. Watson sucks so bad that it isn't as apparent that LG and C are also a problem. So is QB. So is WR and not getting separation when DBs get physical.

The team was doing well when Siemian was getting the ball out in 2 seconds. I think DCs know this and are jamming the WRs. But missing wide open receivers like the TE and RBs in the flat is unacceptable. Siemian has peaked and is not the answer.

Watson is a turnstyle, so Siemian doesn't have more than 2.5 seconds before a defensive player is getting near him. He sucks at making decisions under pressure so that makes things worse. The offense gets into this mode that almost seems frantic and everything is going too fast for them. It's not good. McCoy has to find a way to make something work.

None of us should expect things to get better under Lynch. He will be just as bad, if not worse. Denver's problem is at QB, but it is also much more than QB. They will be fortunate to win 1 of the next handful of games. Buckle up.

And for god's sake, get the kicker something to loosen him up. We just made that guy the fourth highest paid kicker in the game....

Mitch Trubisky is good proof that just because you tear up the preseason doesn't mean you'll look good in the regular season. If anyone thinks Sloter would have come in here and played great this season, you're kidding yourself.

Right now, it looks like Siemian is not good, and that's putting it kindly. I'm not saying Sloter would come in and play great - I'm saying that the nightmare scenario is real, and that we have two awful giraffes sitting here as part of Elway's grand QB plan. If you think we're winning anything with Osweiler or Lynch at the helm, you're kidding yourself. You at least have the chance to develop Sloter for next year if he's here. Now we're dreaming of Chad Kelly ...

It was a TD, and would be hotly and angrily debated today if we weren't all so numb by the time we got to that point.

This team still thought they were on a bye week.
Peko and DT were the only bright spots I could see.
We have a couple of these shitshow games every year.
I wasted 2-3 of prime sleep time on this game.
Gonna be a long day.
That is all.

Ok. Keep telling yourself that, if it makes you feel better.

Nope, I'm done sticking up for TS, he had time today...He's seeing defenders that aren't actually there and rushing passes to escape the ghosts in his vision. It's possible with a better line he could have been what some of us were hoping for, but he's ruined at this point. He's never going to be anything more than he is now.

Hopefully Chad Kelly works out, but I've been told QB draft is deep this year. Regardless, other than Kelly, we have no potential QB of the future on our roster.

It is the damn line MO... But it's TS too. It can be both and it is. Yes, TS had time tonight on a lot of occasions and he flubbed it up, that's him for sure, he's playing like hot nasty sick... But lets not act like our line is fixed, it's both.

I still can't believe it. The sun actually rose this morning.

It's still dark here, and getting darker by the day, cold too.....damn winter.

If it makes any of you feel any better, the Raiders lost to the chargers yesterday...

Well, that was an unpleasant three+ hours. I don't think we're as bad as we looked last night, but we also aren't as good as I'd hoped after the Dallas game. That's all I've got to say on the subject. Next up the Chargers

This might be moved or deleted, but did anyone else think Al Michaels' comment about Weinstein last night was funny? I did, but he's getting blasted for it, and later (during the broadcast) apologized.

I thought it was funny, I also thought pandering "Sorry, I shouldn't have said that" was humorous too... Our entire offense is more disgusting than Weinstein on singles night...
