Comcast Red Zone Report - Broncos Week 7

This post is sponsored by Comcast and their NFL RedZone channel.  Want to see every touchdown from every NFL game as it happens as well as live look-ins to all of Sunday's games in key situations?  Then you need Comcast's NFL RedZone.

If we are going to have a sponsorship deal, we might as well find a way to incorporate said sponsorship into something that is near and dear to Broncos fans - the team's performance in the Red Zone.  This has been a key point of contention for a long time with Denver - take last year into account - 2nd in Yards, 16th in points.

Each week we'll take a look at the Broncos' trips into the Red Zone and how they fared.  Good teams, playoffs teams, score in the Red Zone.  If the Broncos want to be a playoff team, they'll need to as well.

Star-divide

There are two sides to the Red Zone - the offensive side, of course, and the defensive side.  Few people look at how a defense performs when backed up in their own Red Zone but it is vital to the success of the team, no doubt.  We'll look at both.

I'm a bit late this week, but wanted to get you up to date on the Broncos-Chargers recap before looking at the Ravens game later this week.

Overall in 2009, the Broncos look like this -

'09 OFFENSE TOTALS

WEEK OPPONENT RZ EFFICIENCY
1 @ CIN 0/0
2 vs. CLE 2/4
3 @ OAK 2/6
4 vs. DAL 1/2
5 vs. NEP 2/3
6 @ SD 2/4
TOTALS 9/19 (47.3%)

 

DEFENSE

For the season, the Broncos' Defense is one of the best in football inside its own Red Zone -

'09 DEFENSE TOTALS

WEEK OPPONENT RZ EFFICIENCY
1 @ CIN 1/2
2 Vs. CLE 0/1
3 @ OAK 0/1
4 Vs. DAL 1/3
5 Vs. NEP 2/2
6 @ SD 1/2
TOTALS 5/11(45.4%

Ravens 30, Broncos FAIL

What a rough game.

Hopefully McD will make the players hope they will never lose again! Meaning…work ’em hard

Verbose in style, dispersion of thought, procrastination in life.

Conversation nonstarters: hoping McDaniels fails, comparing Bears to Broncos, Cutler to Orton, apples to oranges, and casual drinkers to Raiders fans.

2nd half looked like it was straight out of last year

desperation TD enabled only by penalties to give us hope, then widespread fail across the board…

Because Montana has no professional sports, I gotta support the land of my birth.

Socrates was once executed for 'trolling'.
^Needs explaining: don't call someone asking uncomfortable, slightly antagonistic questions trolls. In all odds they probably just want to learn. It's real easy to differentiate a 'Socratic' post from a trolling one (unless you're a resident of WCG).
^Needs further explaining: I have yet to post anything on WCG, don't worry, I'm not trying to rationalize anything I've done. I've just lurked over there and man, they are the model of post-peloponnesian war Athens.

too true

Even listening to McDaniels’ postgame comments, I was struck by how similar to a post-loss Shanahan he was sounding there for a few minutes! Eerie!
