OT: Other Sports: Broncos, Nuggets, Rockies etc…Part VII

[lionsDen]

Even the announcers know

 

[sethro109]

Watching Watt makes me miss prime Von Miller.

 

[CharlesPuck]

Payton has a lot of faith in a quick strike offense apparently.

 

[sethro109]

We need new f***ing safeties. PJ isn't it.

I wouldn't put him back in after that temper tantrum. Vance and Payton are too soft.

 

[famicommander]

Fields is almost as bad as Nix. Yikes.

Russ definitely gonna take his job when healthy. (Russ sucks too, but not this bad)

 

[BobRossColton]

Try no huddle the rest of the game .

Fields is way worse. Year 4 compared to 7 quarters and he isn't doing anything that Nix can't do.

 

[lionsDen]

Imagine that defenses have to account for passes and how things start to open up

 

[sethro109]

We need a TE so badly. Sign anyone off of FA and we'll be instantly better.

 

[famicommander]

The prevent defense coming in clutch again for the Broncos.

We should just always play against the prevent. I'm a genius.

 

[sethro109]

I know it wouldn't really help us here, but holy f*** I hate the new kickoff rules.

 

[lionsDen]

I hate playing homes games in white. Tradition freaking walmart

 

[famicommander]

Should've gone for the onside kick. Dumb to kick it deep having squandered two timeouts and the two minute warning.

 

[dahrougem2]

This offense is laughably bad.

 

[ANewHope]

Nix was still pretty rough. He showed improvement compared to last week which is a start. Needs to keep getting better. The offense does him no favors. Tough spot for a rookie.

Denver needs to draft weapons. When you watch other teams it's crazy the difference. Most teams have atleast 2 weapons than are better than anything we have. Looks like a good draft for WR's/RB's. Even if Nix isn't the guy we need to load up on offense.

 

[Bonzai12]

Nix had a rough outing but yeah - nobody is helping the poor dude out. No running game. Drops all over the place. We suckkkkkkk.

This entire year is 100% gonna be just assessing whether Nix is the QB of the future or if we can possibly draft any other position in the top 5 next year.

 

[BobRossColton]

So what are the positives this game?

 

[sethro109]

Not a great first two weeks. He did look better at times today than anything last week. The Steelers do have a great pass rush and our receivers (especially our f***ing TEs) did him no favors.

Next week is the buccaneers who won their first two games. Once again I'm just gonna ask for some improvement. No INTs... Or even just 1 would be nice.

 

[BobRossColton]

Draft this WR because of his size

CJ Stroud figured things out by game 5ish last season? Maybe Bo can to..

 

[Avs_19]

This offense is laughably bad.

Think there's any offensive genius available to hire as HC? Give up a couple of picks and $100M if someone like that is out there.

 

[JWK]

Only thing that would have made this game better was if it was Russell Wilson beating them.

Bo Nix drives this season

Game 1:
4 plays, 3 yards, FG
3 plays, 5 yards, PUNT
3 plays, 7 yards, PUNT
12 plays, 49 yards, INT
3 plays, 4 yards, PUNT
4 plays, -2 yards, FG
3 plays, 4 yards, PUNT
6 plays, 17 yards, PUNT
5 plays, 26 yards, FG
3 plays, -8 yards, PUNT
5 plays, 17 yards, FUMBLE
3 plays, 5 yards, PUNT
8 plays, 28 yards, INT
7 plays, 74 yards, TD (prevent defense)

Game 2:
3 plays, 7 yards, PUNT
3 plays, 1 yard, PUNT
6 plays, 18 yards, PUNT
8 plays, 41 yards, TO on DOWNS
3 plays, 5 yards, PUNT
6 plays, 79 yards, INT
3 plays, 4 yards, PUNT
12 plays, 54 yards, FG
3 plays, 2 yards, PUNT
9 plays, 69 yards, FG (prevent defense)
2 plays, 15 yards, INT (hail mary/garbage time)

Offensively we've put 22 points on the board this season.
10 of them came against a prevent defense
6 of them came when we got the ball in the redzone and had to settle for field goals

So basically, our offense has managed 6 points on legitimate, sustained drives through two games this season.

Not sure how you lot can stand the NFL product: Three plays, commercial, kick, commercial, kick return, commercial, play, minor injury, and commercial. What a disaster.

I don't know about anyone else, but I like the slow pace. It's like a turn based RPG. It's more about strategy. Kinda like chess with ACL injuries.


Also, when I'm not watching the Broncos, Red Zone is amazing.

I'd say he was much better today, really it was 1 bad read that did him in.

What's frustrating is how insanely bad the supporting cast is. Just getting no help. It's one thing to be a rookie QB, it's a whole different thing to be a rookie QB that has nothing to work with.

The countless years of poor drafting is rearing it's ugly head. Our best offensive skill player is Sutton, who's an average 2. When your best offense weapon is mid level 2 WR things are going to be rough.
