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
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.
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.

I think I said it already but it would be crazy if both Michael Malone and Jared Bednar get fired in the same season they both secure pretty much every coaching record in their respective franchises’ histories. And if things continue to trend they way they’re going, it very well could happen.
Malone doesn't have 50 guys on IR. I'd fire him ten times over before I considered firing Bednar.
Well, I’m definitely nowhere near the Fire Bednar bandwagon yet, but I’ll admit some things Malone did last year and didn’t appear to learn from this year are really grating on me.
Terrible schedule but given the stakes and how they’ve all played, feels like the Broncos made this an easy decision who to watch Thursday
Also happy to see PS2 and Bonitto are in the top 3 favourites for DPOY. If TJ Watt is injured, we might finally see a Bronco win after feeling like Miller came so close so many times
This is the reason laptops were invented. I'm watching all three games.
If they all lose I'll have to get three times as drunk to compensate.
