Back to Reality Bronco Country

Yes, that loss to the Baltimore Ravens was disappointing, but much like previous colds or cases of the flu and (for most of us) collegiate exams, all that nonsense is in the past.

Every loss in the NFL should be tempered with perspective. First of all, if losses in the NFL aren't consistent, they're not a problem and should only be remembered for the lessons that can be gleaned therefrom in order to help a team play better.

With our 30-7 beatdown at the hands of the Ravens, I'm sure that already Josh McDaniels, Mike Nolan and the other coaches are done looking at the film and have expunged the loss from their minds, while remembering what can be done better.

I think it's a fair assessment that the Broncos know they are much better than those impostors wearing the orange and blue last week and with the outstanding orange jerseys being broken out, the real team will return.

That means Ben Roethlisberger should expect plenty of pressure, while the Steelers' defense will become well acquainted with Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, Tony Scheffler and for good measure, Jabar Gaffney and Brandon Stokley in a really frustrating way for the black and gold.

Of course, while some have said Darren Sharper should be considered as league MVP, a better version of him resides in Denver named Brian Dawkins. With Dawkins' motivation serving as an impetus of success for the Broncos in the early portion of the season, his peerless leadership will be essential in leading the Broncos to victory.

While the MSM continues to hate and my "friends" being more willing to talk football with me after a Broncos loss, I'm sure there will be no one to talk to save fellow Broncos fans Tuesday morning as all the haters will have climbed under their shells again.

The way is set before us, the circumstances are propitious and Kyle Orton will overcome his slight ankle injury to lead the Broncos to a big win.

Keep the faith Bronco Country and of course, GO BRONCOS!!!

I feel so refreshed now.

I just want our Broncos to beat the nasty Steelers. This is the game I want the most for this team because I live around so many Steelers’ fans. It’s overwhelming at times and could be worse if we lose.

Nice post!!

How 'bout some throwback unis mojo?

Hey, you never know. I say why not wear the throwback unis until Broncos have another loss? Maybe it was those psychedelic socks that hypnotized the defense & kept them from tackling Broncos receivers.

I think they didn't wanna tackle them because some of that ugly might rub off..........

If Taylor Swift were to try and tackle me, I'd let her.

I cant wait

This is gonna be a good weekend, Denver will win. The chargers will go across country and lose to the Giants. This team has been working on what they did wrong since Monday.I have complete faith in the coaching staff to correct what went wrong on last Sunday and have a good gameplan for Monday night.
Invesco will be rocking and our team will do very well and win. All I know is the “experts” (i use that term very loosely) expect Denver to lose, and just as all season has gone, I expect a great effort from our boys and a win!

Not for me

however I don’t mind it one bit because they are annoying.

While the MSM continues to hate and my “friends” being more willing to talk football with me after a Broncos loss,

The only ones that will really talk to me aren’t Charger fans, well except for just one.

Wrong title ...

This is not “back to reality” … it is simply “reality” … you are going to lose some games. Sometimes you will be outplayed. Sometimes things will click for the other team better than they click for you. The trite phrase “on any given Sunday” really is true. We are not “back to reality” … we are in the midst of it. The trick is having the "L"s in the right spot during the season and a good string of "W"s at the end …. especially the end of the playoffs.

Part time fans are scared

pointing to last ear melt down. Different team different year. Agree, everyone loses and this was not a bad time to get a loss. I had no expectations for this team because of all the changes that had been made. I am more than satisfied with the direction of the organization as a whole. Let the MSM beat there chest along with Chad, Btown, and the Dolts over our one loss. There just wish they could sniff 6-1. I am enjoying this year and am very excited about the next 10 as we become a dominant force to be reckoned with year in and year out.
And for all the Steeler trolls visiting MHR…. Broncos 27 PItt 10. Have a great day!
Go Broncos!!!!

I've made my statements regarding how I feel aboout the Broncos.

As long as they play hard and play smart it really doesn’t matter too much if they lose to a great team. Thier play last Sunday didn’t display that kind of football. Going into the locker room at halftime down 6-0 had me thinking this team could beat anybody in the league. The run back for a TD to start the second half still had me believing they had a chance to win this game. Kyle started to get better protection and made a nice drive for a score shortly after making it a 13-7 game. That’s the kind of game that defines the character of a great team and great defenses. 13-7 up until the end of the 3rd qtr. What happened? The 4th qtr found them not making the plays that stretch the greatness and they failed. 3 and out! Oh wait, an off sides penalty, 3 and out, oh wait, another off sides penalty. The result, a continued drive that was stopped at midfield now becomes a bewildered score. Field goal, 16-7 and from that point on they got stomp on. Great teams make the little plays that make a difference in the end, Sunday wasn’t a day to shine for our team. They played tough, somewhat smart and couragious for 3 qtrs. Hmm, it’s a 4 qtr game folks.
