I remember the broncos of the 60′s. What division were they in?
I dont think they were even a blip on the playoff map until 1977 let alone posting winning seasons. I’m surprised you even bring that dark past up at all. It took years to build a functional team….even with Elway in there it wasn’t functional for him right out of the gate either. Lots of ghosts to deal with for Elway until he got warmed up. What you folks need is another 5 or 10 years to build a functional team again while we go ahead and keep on winning the division and hopefully a SB or 2.

Who knows what can happen….with injuries on the Bolts? Coop, you just did your team a “jinkser” right there

Coop it sounds like you have been with the broncos as long as I have, but do you remember the team in the 60′s? it took time to build a functional team. Remember no one man makes a team. and your right others must step up and be heard. We have to make changes in the offence but the defence wins games by keeping the other team out of the end zone. here is a big tash for the coachs and front office to work on.

In Sundays loss, not only did the QB pass the line of scrimige by inches there were to false starts that could have been called on the Raider.

Yes, John E. (7) had a rough time for a few years, why… Dan R didn’t put a team around him. Until M. Shanahan came along was there the team put togather. We have the hourse power, there hurt but they will be back. As for Brandon Marshall I see great things for this young man he is dangerous when the ball is in his hand. It’s like a hot buttom when he catches the ball he become ” the hulk” he has run all over the feal to get on yard or to get a touch down. Now that is HEART. He has an attatude…A good one.

Let’s not stray from our team yes we are dissatisfied but back the O & B. We will prevail.
A new bee here but an oldie for the team… like 47 years.

Coop,

Not a grand performance thats for sure, definitely not worthy of a victory.
Was I the only one who saw McCown cross the line of scrimage on his TD pass to Porter that made it 24 – 7 ???!!!! When it happened my first thought was ..good he crossed the line of scrimage.

Just booked my plane ticket to Denver (from ATL) for the KC game. Got nothing but love and support for my Cuz and the rest of the Broncos family. I also BELIEVE that our loss to Oakland was not in vain — it was a day of resolve. The best is yet to come.

We can win the final games down the stretch — one game at a time…

San Diego will lose to Tennesse, the ORANGE AND BLUE, and to Oakland; we will win our last four games and claim the AFC West Division title. No worries.

After all, I AM A BRONCOS FAN and do BELIEVE.

2007 to 2011 with Shanahan and Cutler is just mediocrity. Remind me
Griese, the same story, in the end he is going to switch to another team.

Cooper,
That was brilliantly said… thank you for giving all nay-sayers positive words. I couldn’t agree more with you.

These guys may be real young but they are so full of talent and potential… the least we could do is show them we love them and we support them. This team will get better especially for next year… we should give the Patriots a run for their money next season. I know we can be better, this is not the Broncos team I know – the team I know is a winning team not one that gives up plays and games.

And Cutler has every right in the world to be frustrated with his receivers… they need to pull through for him and catch the passes he throws and hold on to that dang ball!!!!!!! Every QB goes through this tough spot, just like Cooper said, Elway wasn’t perfect when he began, there’s no way Brady was as good as he is now when he first began and the same for Peyton Manning. Cutler is young and so are the majority of his receivers and the majority of this team. But we should be able to bring it all together by next season… we have to, its a must that we change to be better for next year. No excuses!

GO BRONCOS!!!!

after the Hou game, we will have 11 days to prepare for SD…Shanny should be able to come up with a winning game plan against the idiot of a coach in Norv Turner….
Go Broncos!!

hey rattilsnkae,
You have to believe!!!

don’t give up faith….
i’ve done some calcualtions taking into account all NFL tiebreakers…
if SD loses to Tenn and Denver….we still need them to lose another because they would own tiebreaker over us….now if SD loses to Den and Oak, then we would win division as long as we run the table….i spent hours looking at all the different tie breaking possibilities…SD could lose to TENN, and then Det and then us..then we would win division….
but more likely is that SD lose to DEN and Oak…then we win division….

Wild card…we need Tenn and Cleveland to lose 2 times….
we need to cheer on the jets this week…..Tenn has a tough schedule with SD, Indy, and at KC…….
i have tons of other scenarios worked out but I don’t want to bore you guys….
i won’t lose faith until we really are out….
Go Broncos
