He got happy feet...poor base led to inaccurate passes. The real issue is the run game.....it was awful against an awful run defense. That is killing us and forcing Bo to carry the load. Lucky win to be sure, but payback for the KC debacle.

Well yeah. He's a rookie playing his first ball game that actually meant something. Of course the moment is going to get to him. All rookies struggle there, outside of a few odd balls.
I think there were definitely a couple of players who screwed up large on the INTs. LJH seemed to screw up on the first one, I didn't see him in the game after that... I think he got benched from that moment on but I'm not 100% sure.

Sutton seemed to screw up on #2 but that was still throwing into double coverage...so, not great. I think the 3rd one was all on Nix.

Awful? It was non-existent.

What's Latavius Murray up to? Lol

They haven't even given Estime a fair shot yet.

1st INT either a bad read or LJH ran the wrong route. Tough to say.

2nd INT is on Sutton ran the route 5 yards short. Nix was under high pressure and is throwing to a spot. That's why we saw Payton laying into Sutton.

3rd INT fully on Nix. Bad footwork, telegraphed it, and tried to guide it in.

It felt like Javonte was benched and they gave Estime his carries yesterday. I'm sure Payton will talk about the committee and going with the hot hand but if what they have done with other vets is any indication they might have Javonte down the depth chart to let the young guys get the reps. We will see how Jaleel is, he's really the #1 when healthy and looked ok out there despite the lack of run blocking.

They were only giving him some carries because mclaughlin got hurt.

Nugs and Avs both have a game at basically the same time tonight, then two days off, then on Thursday both squads are playing again AND the Broncos are playing.

Christian Braun will miss the first game of his career due to injury tonight with back spasms. He only played 76 games his rookie year, but he was active for all of them and Malone simply didn't put him in for the remaining 6. And he played in every regular season and playoff game last year.

Nugs have called up Spencer Jones from Grand Rapids to replace him, but Jones likely won't play.

Was Braun holding this team back?

I was about to say, the Nuggets have one of the easiest schedules rest of the way, but then remembered they lost to the Wizards.
