Broncos visit the San Diego Chargers Game Day Thread and Poll

[Faded blues]

You know, even though we pulled off this win, it's more like a blind squirrel than anything else. Extremely shitty, conservative play calling during the whole fourth quarter, not just the final offensive series tells me that this team will never be able to win the close ones. Poorly coached STs, prevent defense, they all add up to a loser mentality that runs from the coaching staff down to the players who are doing their best to overcome the piss-poor coaching decisions that we continue to make. McCoy simply has to go. This was not a McCoy win, this was a Chargers players win in spite of the coach.

We have got to fix the 4th quarter prevent D and safe offense. It does nothing but kill us. You just have to play like you are losing. Dont let up.

Yeah. Denver's D is good, but they could try something other than run up the middle.

Big diff, no issues in the kicking game. But bad on the receiving end.

And it would be real nice if we had a legit power-running RB that could finish games for us. I don't think Gordon is the guy.

McTurtle still needs to go... we won because the donkeys didnt accept the gift that was handed to them.

[Formula 21]

Marshall Faulk has narrow shoulders.

The defense finally made key plays to finish the game.

The 2016 draft printed all over this game. Henry get us the comfortable lead. Bosa disrupted their offense to maintain the lead. When Bosa was gassed in the 4th because he spent so much energy, Brown stepped up and delivered 2 game saving plays in a roll, a sack to get them out of FG range and the forced fumble.

Even Kaser made beautiful punts to pin them.

Good team win. Now on to ATL.

Honestly I think this win is strictly due to homefield ref advantage. Twelve penalties called on Denver and only three on us. And so many of them have been difference makers.

Sorry I'm late to the party, but from what I saw, the ones that were called were pretty obviously fouls - but even if they were all B.S., it would take like 287 games of us playing the Broncos with all the fouls called on them to even the score on penalties between us & them.

McCoy sounds like he was crying before his presser.

Be cool if Deano took off his disguise in the press pool and yelled "yer fired!"

Hell Bronco Nagurski, Larry Csonka, and Jim Brown, all reincarnated into one super RB couldn't have gotten yards with those play calls. The dline was more stacked than Dolly Parton. I thought Gordon did great getting what he did out of that mess. A simple play action pass would have killed them, but no, don't trust your all-world QB, run it straight into the line and depend on your D. Let them dictate the game. As far as I'm concerned McCoy was totally outcoached by the Denver's substitute HC.

Brown. 14 tackles. Teo who?
