The Broncos are right where I expected them to be after the toughest first six game schedule in the league! They are a work in progress with a ton of talent and just need to bring it all together. Its really frustrated me to watch the media go back and forth between praising and bashing the team from week to week. Anyone who pays attention to this game knew that it would take a little time to get everyone on the same page and working as a team. They will win at least seven of the next ten games and win the division. The team is right on track and building momentum just as expected. Even if they fizzle out in the playoffs this season should be considered a success and we will see the Lombardi trophy back in Denver within the next 3-4 yrs!
Go Broncos!!!!

The key to the rest of the season… whenever the Broncos have the chance, defer!!!! Kick off to start the game, so the Broncos get the ball to start the second half.

Coincidentally, Frank Reich served as Peyton Mannings QB coach for several year in Indy….lol.

Just looked it up, Staubach’s comeback in 1972 playoffs was only a deficit of 12 pts they overcame as Dallas had trailed by 28–16 with less than 2 minutes to play. Cowboys won 30-28.

Put Bay on the payroll….LOL!

We’ll get you on payroll bay..lol

Speaking of which, thanks AB for looking up the leading tacklers, I had a feeling Gruden wasn’t right about that..

I hate to work.

Anyhow found out the top two, Houston was leading Buffalo 28-3 at the half and went on to lose 41-38, NO was leading SF 35-7 at the half and lost 38-35, third game seems to be other than Staubach, rather it was another Buffalo game against Indy, the Colts were up 26-10 at the half and went on to lose 37-35.

So my point stands.

No team has ever comeback 24 points down at the half scoring zero and won by such a big margin. Two teams came back from 24 points down scoring zero in the first half, one won 28-24 in the end (Eagles beat Redskins), the other won 30-27 (Raiders beat Broncos).

Did I say I hate doing all that work, LOL.

I think your right on that bay as the others had didn’t have a goose egg on the scoreboard. I see what you’re saying though. I’ll have to look up the scores, but don’t have the time right now.

Since I no longer do work on this blog, LOL, maybe you can tell me what the halftime score was of those three bigger comebacks and their final score, just to fairly compare…
