Congrats RaidersGAF on the division and the pro bowl win.
Hopefully the Broncos learn from this.

HOpefully what they learned is that if you tempted fate once and won a Super Bowl w/o a QB, don't try and do it again.

Feel like it's Elway that will have to learn, rolling with what they got at QB1 is going to waste a very good defense this year.
Who would have known the Broncos would give up 103 yards in penalties?
No one wins games like that.

I think Siemian played a lot better than Lynch did last week.

They won a SB with Peyton Manning at QB last year.
I'm not a fan of Siemian but hes really not that much worse than what they had last year.
Romo for Von straight up, who says no?

I know people say this, but I don't agree with it. Peyton did exactly what they needed last year during that playoff run. He looked awful at times during the regular season, and his stats look awful. But that doesn't mean any QB with better stats is an upgrade.
Mah kicker?
The Defense is still good, tightened up when they really needed to.Held the Chargers to only one Offensive TD, with the rest of the scores coming on FGs.
That OL needs fixing and fast, FARRRR too many dumb holding penalties, one that negated a fucking TD (Then DT Fumbles the ball away...) and one leading to a safety. You cannot commit that many penalties on offense and expect to win a game.
Ugly game all around that the Chargers nearly pissed away but the Broncos couldn't capitalize on.
The goal is to win the Super Bowl, not choke in the playoffs, which is what you'll get with Tony Romo (What is it with Romos and choking?), so no to any trade talks involving him.

I can kind of agree with this but honestly the dropoff in their defense is why the formula won't work and everyone should have seen that coming. Its hard to maintain that kind of level of historical dominance. You can win a SB with a washed up Peyton or a Trent Dilfer but its not something you should actually want to do.
Feel like they should just find out what they have with Lynch. Maybe hes the answer, maybe hes not right now but Siemian just doesn't have the kind of arm that can get them back into games when they're down by 2+ scores.
They should just trade for Tony Romo.

Do you guys seriously think Siemian is worse than Manning last year? C'mon. Don't tell me Tony Romo is going to lead this team to the promised land either.
Nevermind. Read your posts above.

No, but I don't know that you can recreate what the Broncos did last year is what I'm saying. I'd be shocked if you could win back to back Super Bowls in the modern era with mediocre QB play.

I'm kinda nervous about Sunday Game, Jamal Charles is back, Andy Reid is like 14-2 after a bye week for his career....and I still think our Defense hasn't mesh well together ...hope JDR and Norton can scheme out some clever defensive plays to pressure Alex Smith...

I agree. There's just not much you can get out there. Maybe they're better off putting Lynch in the driver's seat and have him run with it.
Dallas would take an immediate $20m cap hit if they traded him, so he's not going anywhere

Also Jerry Jones would probably have to die first before he gets traded
NFC Playoff Picture:
1.) Vikings
2.) Cowboys
3.) Falcons
4.) Seahawks
5.) Packers
6.) Eagles
7.) Rams
8.) Redskins
9.) Cardinals
10.) Bucs
11.) Giants
12.) Lions
13.) Saints
14.) Bears
15.) Panthers
16.) 49ers

Still obviously very early in terms of playoffs but I can say with almost 100% certainty teams #7-11 are not better than the Lions even when factoring in our depleted defense and running game.
The Rams-Lions game will have an impact on the overall NFC playoff picture I'm just hoping the Jeff Fisher .500 record holds up another week. I think we should win at home but the Rams defensive line and running game can control the game like they did last season.

Broncos offensive lineman Russell Okung just left Qualcomm Stadium in an ambulance. He had an IV in his arm, but based on the pace of the paramedics it did not look to be an emergency.
Thanks brotha, kind of hoping Kaepernick works out for you guys for old time sake

Broncos T Russell Okung was taken to the hospital for further evaluation after experiencing concussion-like symptoms following the game.
They say that. But Romo gets touched by Mack or Hali once and he'll be on IR again.
Hypothetically speaking, with the way the Broncos OL has been the last two games, that would happen in the first series.

Former offensive lineman Darryl Ashmore just entered a lawsuit against the NFL for denying his disability benefits. He's an 11 year vet from 1992-2002, played for the Rams, Washington and Raiders, and now has dementia among a laundry list of other medical issues.
The NFL scheduled a medical exam farther away than someone with his condition can travel, wouldn't allow him to move or reschedule it, then denied his application for missing it.

He needs to go okay for the lions. what a wonderful night, so glad I got to see another nats playoff collapse.
Yea if it wasn't the Chiefs coming off a bye I'd be more confident. Plus we are garbage at home.
I can take the loss, we have an easy schedule this year. If we go into Oakland against the Broncos Sunday night at 6-2 that would be way better than expected. Just got to win 2 of the next 3

Siemian was rusty, basically a rookie and playing with a bum shoulder. OL has some issues, but I think it's solvable. Short week and Kubiak was in the hospital.
Had an unfortunate fumble at the end and yet the Chargers still almost gave the game away with 20 seconds left in the game.
Defense is still good.
It's fiiiine.
