Pick 6 was a good thing

[Sydla]

I didn't expect our defense to be that bad against a mediocre Denver offense, or our offense, particularly the offensive line being that bad consistently in this game.

On the other hand our play calling did nothing to nullify the pass rush. No screen passes. No chipping. Piss poor use of Beasley and Switzer.

Forcing it to Dez put us behind repeatedly in down and distance and was a drive killer over and over. Dez had over 16 targets in this game. It's no wonder we were so inept on offense. Throwing low percentage passes to Dez vs high percentage passes to Beaz should be a no brainer.

People should expect that this defense has the capability of getting embarrassed every single week regardless of the comp. That's how inconsistent they are from a talent perspective and coaching perspective. They lack edge talent, talent in the secondary and have a coordinator who at the first sign of trouble falls back on conservative play calling and deep zones.

Don't be stunned when Arizona, who looks inept thus far on offense, drops some yards and points on us next week.

What an odd thread. Speaks to how shallow the average fan's thinking is I suppose.

Nobody who watched this game should have any difference of opinion based on the final score. Whether we made it a 7 point game or lost by 40, we got killed when it mattered.

You calling me average and shallow?

Dak plays better when he doesn't force to Dez.

Exactly. This offense is so much better without Dez. Last year proved that.

Dez is so overrated it's not even funny. Mainly by our own fans. The book is out on him now and every corner is now playing him the same way. Get ready for more of this.

Nothing could hide that turd of coaching, offensive line play, running game, and defensive play that was put on the field by the team today. At one point near the end of the second half I heard the commentators say the Broncos were averaging 11.5 yards per play. That's inexcusable.

The defense could not tackle. That was a problem all night. We would make contact then the Denver ball carrier would run through 2 or 3 tackles every play! 150+ rushing and probably 100 after contact! Bad!

At 35-10, Denver was basically playing out the string. Anybody spinning anything but a total *** whupping is a fool. This game was over at the half or the 1st drive of the 2nd half.

I lost my FF game because of that pick 6 so no it wasn't a good thing

 

[CowboyStar88]

We finally saw the team we expected to see last year... When things went bad they just quit. We have overrated some of the players on this team.

There are a lot of fools out there.

Me. I'm spinning that Dez is late career Keyshawn and the OL needs to refocus and get on track.
This D needs to get back to freaking basics and learn how to tackle... can't believe I'm looking at you, Sean Lee, as much as anyone else.
Jaylon is NOT what we need in the middle right now.

I get the decimation in the secondary. I don't even fault Lewis for being lost like Little Red Riding Hood right now, but this D was on their heels from play 1.

Edit: Oh, and Sean? It would be great if you could stop knocking out your own damn players out of games. I thought you were cerebral. You keep head hunting your own damn players.

Corso you know you're my boy but you're off your rocker with that Keyshawn and Dez narrative

No argument bro. Emotions are talking. Let my head meet my crotch and then I may be singing a different tune soon.

@Jstopper has always been the best at reigning me in and get back to thinking sense...

It's emotional when we get our *** kicked the way we just did. Some sleep will do us both some good

Unfortunately I have been an insomniac for the past 29 years.
It took my wife 4 years to get used to it. I'm always up. And up. And up. And up. And up...

It was a thing all right.

The game was decided. If you are going to lose what difference does it make the spread of score.

I hope this game gets Dak's mind right. I think he started to believe he was Rodgers or Brady and could dominate a defense without relying on the ground game which is this team's backbone.

This O-Line needs to be ashamed of itself and Zeke seemed checked out today when it was clear he wasn't going to get 10 carries- which by itself is absurd.
