It says "Denver Broncos Football". Sorta ambiguous, I agree.

I don't see it at all. I'll stare harder.

Ride the contours, my friend.

Wow, after watching portions of last night's game, I have a much better understanding of the issues and players you have been ranting and fuming about. Based on the portions of the game I watched, I discovered the following:
1. your LT Bolles (sp?) sucks;
2. Joe Flacco looks like an emotionless, automaton just going through the motions. I didn't see any fire, emotion or leadership in his play. I saw a few plays where it appeared he could make a positive play (e.g. scramble through a hole that opened in the line for a 1st, slide in pocket to avoid raised hand), but instead he just perfunctorily threw the ball. It looked like he had thrown in the towel and was merely going through the motions.
3. The Broncos got screwed on at least one phantom DPI call.
4. The Defense appeared much too passive and vanilla and provided almost no pressure on Matt Moore.
Although I am a Patriots fan and not a true Broncos fan, I was rooting for the Broncos last night and was extremely annoyed and frustrated at the play of the Broncos, especially the above identified matters. If I was a true Broncos fan or if the Patriots were in this exact situation, I would be besides myself with anger, frustration, annoyance. I realize that it doesn't mean or matter much, but you have my moral and verbal support during this excruciating and trying time.

And now we are getting critiqued by Pats fans. If this isn't rock bottom, then I just can't identify the jagged bits that have disemboweled my soul.

I'm not trying to critique the Broncos. For the past 6 weeks, I have been reading the Game Day Threads and your/Broncos fans anger and frustration with Bolles and the OLine, Flacco, the issues with the D and how long it took the D to get a sack and TO, etc. Until last night, however, I had not seen much of the Broncos games. After last night, I now see and understand what Broncos fans had written and vented about in the Game Day Threads. As a long-time Patriots fan, I suffered and stressed through a lot of similar situations and seasons from the mid 1970s up until 1993.

Twist the knife, MN. Twist it.

Sorry, not what I am trying to do, but fear that is what I am doing nonetheless.

Sharpe saved his most salty commentary for underperforming rookie tight end Noah Fant. Fant had one catch for seven yards on five targets, with two drops on vertical routes that could have been big plays.

“Fant, you’ve got to do better than this,” Sharpe wrote. “Speed and bad hands aren’t a good combo.”

he quit on the team in the 3rd quarter. ive never seen anything like it.

He should be cut today and never suit up again. the fact he isnt benched or traded and is coming back next week to start another game after quitting on the entire team is disgusting.


Chad Kelly sits on a couch, gets cut. Joe Flacco quits on the team on national tv, gets another chance.

He quit in the 2nd Q i thought.

Kellys is a head case get over it bro

LOCK gotta hand him the keys and hope he isn't atrocious

In Flacco’s defense, I’d take emotionless over modern day Liberace in Ugs.

Admit it, you were a Broncos fan before 2001?

I think MN is good people ... with terrible taste in football teams.
