in 10 games, Denver only allowed 11 points off TOs, yesterday, we scored 14 points off their 2 TOs

that's a huge change from last year, we're finally forcing TOs that lead to points for us! and against a team that usually makes up for their mistakes...

c'mon guys, offer up some other positives taken from yesterday's game

Great point and nice stat. It hurts but there were lots of positives from that game. That's why it hurts so much. We found a way to loose. Two dropped ints and a missed FG in a game where we couldn't run well and didn't really pass as well as I'd of liked.

We have a good team. I'm still hopeful.

From what I have heard on this board and others, there are a lot of positives from the game. I can't wait to see it.

yep, it 'sho does hurt, but I think there are better ways to go about talking about losses than what's the norm on here, which is choosing to focus on the same things we hear after every loss, either a real problem, or imagined ;)

As easy as it is to get down about our four losses thus far, fact of the matter is that we're contenders.

-- We're 7-4, complaining that we should be 11-0. --

Think about that statement for a sec. Wow. There are many positives.

I'm feeling downtrodden and frustrated now, but this thread is simply to state the positives.

I don't care about our OL troubles, FG problems, etc...bottom line is that we're 7-4. That's the main positive and indisputable positive that exists for us.

The biggest positive of all: We have real potential to go 12-4 this season, and we've only been better than that once in our storied history, and we have an extremely young team to boot.

There is absolutely no reason to mope about a loss to a very good team... except for maybe like two days... that's it.

here's another positive, well, a few tied into one, but all but 2 problems, K and Oline, that plagued us last year, have been solved, minus injuries, can never really prepare for them: we improved the QB play, pass-rush, D-backfield, although FS is a minor hole, and record...

I'm very much satisfied with the way the season has played out, and so far, it's gone above my 8-8 expectations, and that's all I can ask for...

The second turnover was on the 10 yard line or so right.

Most of the Broncos turnovers have been on the opponents half of the field.

On a positive note, the Cowboys Defense played very well for a majority of the game. There were offensive scoring drives of 9 and 10 plays.

This is the second time the Cowboys have lost in overtime on Thanksgiving.
