Not gonna use the ref's as an excuse

Good game guys. Hard fought. Hope you do well against Washiington next week.
BUT…if you want to AT ALL whine about calls, be fair, and whine about Harrison and other Steelers D-linemen & LB’s getting undressed on the line. Holding is being perfected tonight…again…on harrison and Woodley. Just saying…You mentioned not wanting to be a homer & all. ;)

Someday I'll see you make a realistic comment, I'm sure of it.
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted and then used against you.
I'm watching a game in which the offense scored 3 points on the very first drive, hasn't come close since and has given away 7 points.
Did I miss something?

I meant the one that put up almost 200 yards and sustained drives despite terrible field position.
When your average starting field position is inside your own 20, scoring any points is a miracle.

Out of curiosity, is it actually bothering ANYONE that the offense has scored 10 points in the last 7+ quarters?

yes, but we are going against very good defenses, too.

I don’t care if it’s the f’ing steelers or what the won last season…our offense has been atrocious. From the playcalling to the players….just plain awful.
"C" is for Championship...that's good enough for meeeee!!!
Why shouldn't you care if it's the Steelers?
The Broncos have just played the two best defenses in the AFC back to back (other than ours). Not saying excuses and nothing’s wrong, but get a perspective check willya?

Only difference between last year and this:
Last year – defense constantly hanging the offense out to dry and forcing them to keep up
This year – offense hanging the defense out to dry and forcing them to hold opponents to almost nothing.

Sepulveda was injured, that's why Berger came in...so they already HAD a good one :)
Of course…with the Broncos…uhhh…
We always had a punter. He was injured and we signed Berger off the garbage heap & gave him a ring. We were VERY unimpressed.

Against the Ravens, their only TD drive was mostly a PI call…
Boydy,I stand by my analysis of Berger vs. Kern
But it was based on historical performance.
So right now it does look bad. Over the course of a season, I’m hoping the long term trends continue.
However, your argument about just not jinxing an undefeated team, it’s a good point.!

Keys to losing this game:
1 – KO’s turnovers.
2 – Inability to run the ball. At all. They couldn’t even get back to the line of scrimmage. Losses on almost every run.

Amen, we shouldn't have started out 6-0 I guess now everyone expects us to win it all.
Had you been asked 6 months ago and whether you would take 6-2 and standing toe to toe with the Steelers in the 8th game any of us would have taken that. Hell I’m glad we are where we are, it’s a hellof a lot better than most of us, even the most optimistic of us ever thought we would be. Oh and the O, it has been repeated over and over that it is complicated and takes 2 seasons to master.

seriously, the interceptions are all on Orton but the playcalling on offense has not been great this 2nd half.

because there are too many other reasons but the officiating in this game has been AWFUL. They have literally missed about 10 calls on the Steelers that I’ve seen alone. They just missed an obvious forward pass deflection. They have not flagged the Steelers for anything. It’s been awful.

Spot on assessment.
Why does McD only go for the cute dink & dunks, and let your awesome vertical threats at WR die on the vine?
Because he’s a Belicheck/Patriots disciple. The Kings of Dink/Dunk. He’d rather have Orton over Cutler. Cutler would have been DYING to get out of Denver after 5 games under McD.
Trust me…you have a strange set up that’s worked for some reason. Mainly, because Orton has been good with the ball. But the power running + zone blocking – vertical passing threat = breakdown waiting to happen.

Read through my posting again
I never said the season was lost. I was being Critical of this team. If you think they played good tonight you are blind. If you can not take people being critical about this team then leave. People do not need to be positive all the time. Yes some people are being negative but they have every right to be after the way this team played tonight and you have no right to question them and tell them not to come back and say positive things if we are winning in 2 weeks against SD. We as fans have every right to get emotional, be upset when the team is bad and be ecstatic when the team plays great.
The Truth is the Offense played terrible tonight and only scored 3 points. I do not care if it is the best D in the league the Offense the the right players and should be better then that. The D played good most of the game but gave up a ton of yards in the second half. Our punter was awful and its time to bring in someone new. Orton looked really bad tonight. Yes the interior Oline is not so good but orton made some bad decisions
by gnarlybroncodude on Nov 9, 2009 9:49 PM MST up reply actions

With the fact that the offense was bad tonight. Completely agree. But, telling me to leave because I get tired of people cutting down OUR TEAM is ridiculous. Yeah, offense looked bad. They’ll work on getting it together. I don’t like to sit here and read people bashing our team and saying how bad we are and then they’re going to follow that up when we make the playoffs and say how great we are.

Yah and can we all agree that
there is a difference, as Guru has pointed out here before, between just bashing the team incessantly without any reality or fairness behind it, and openly criticizing aspects that are worrisome, like punting or RB blocking and that sort of thing? i.e., I would like to see people be fair, be positive when the team deserves it, try to keep the faith, while we also should allow criticism when it comes from a place of reality and fairness.
Would that be a fair way to say it? People who keep making the same negative points over and over again, that really burns me up. But posters should also be allowed to criticize or worry, if DONE RATIONALLY. Just my 2 cents.

Our new DOOMesday Defense!!!! YOU LIKE??????????????
Lots of people are jumping ship right now. It's pretty sad to see. The Broncos went against the best defense in the league and got beat.
The sky isn’t falling. It’s just that we have been outmatched by a very physical football team. Going against the Ravens and steelers back to back is tough. They are two very physical football teams. We are 6-2, which is a great record. We still get to play the redskins and chiefs twice and the raiders once. We get the chargers again, as well. If we win those games, that’s 11. That gets us in the playoffs. That isn’t asking a lot.
The last two weeks are by far the two most physical weeks we will have to play all season.
So, chill out, everyone. This season is far from over.
If Taylor Swift were to try and tackle me, I'd let her.
Agreed. We aren't that far from the playoffs. We have gone through the meat of our schedule and have done better than anyone anticipated.
Not many would have given us 6 wins at this point in the season if you asked them 3 months ago.
If Taylor Swift were to try and tackle me, I'd let her.
until the playoffs that is ;)

I understand that but we only have
a 1 game lead on SD I believe now not 2. They are going to have to play better on Offense then they did tonight. What i have seen the past 2 games tonight scares me a little though because we will have to play these teams in the playoffs and we have not matched up well against them

He was terrific
for 6 straight games. He had two bad games against two terrific defenses. Do you ignore the other 6 games for convenience sake?
The blocking and the RBs have really let him down too. he had a very good first half other than that pick and all collapsed around him. You need a perspective check. How’s Cutler doing in Chicago btw?

I’m not an Orton hater and have been impressed with how he’s played so far. I’m just worried how much ‘adaptability’ he has when upcoming defenses see what the Ravens and Steelers are capable of

Not many defenses can mimic how physical the steelers and ravens can be.
We don’t face any more teams that can match that physicality. Maybe the eagles to a slight extent.

Bad loss today. McDaniels didn’t learn anything from last weeks loss. Pitt did pretty much the same thing on D as Baltimore and McDaniels had not counter moves.
Orton is not being asked to attack the defense. Those 3rd and 10 WR screens are tough to watch.
Really really disappointed in Moreno. He is a liability right now. Can’t run the ball and can’t pick up the blitz. There is a good reason why I think we should look at Larry Johnson because Moreno is playing poorly.
Berger is a joke. Nothing more needs to be said. No mas. Throw in the towel and sign a real punter McDaniels.
I’m not sure we can beat a team with a top 10 D because our O has scored 10 total points in 8 quarters of football vs a good D. We didn’t score much vs Cincy either.
Our O is not getting better with more playing experience. It looks a little worse.

Steelers have a tough and complicated def, especially since they have troy back and u saw his impact this game. This team has tons of potential and even if they may not go to the SB this year, they can only get better and go further. Plus two bad games doesn’t mean the end of the world. the broncos lost to two tough def, and i will say mcdaniels and the offense will make changes. Plus a few eeks ago orton was great ,now he has a rough stretch everyone wants him gone. What i’m saying is ur team is goddamn good, especially on def for the first half.

i agree with the fact that ur offense is playing way to conservatively right now
There’s nothing wrong with dinking and dunking, look at the pats offense most of the time it’s short underneath routes. The problem i see now is that unlike the pats bronco’s don;t try to stretch the field at times, like the pats do. but remember this is orton’s first year in the bronco’s offense, and going long to a reciever requires trust and precision. Yes i noe about orton’s noodle arm, but he still can make some decent throws down field. I’m sure after 2 games McDaniels will change it up. usually the first time an offense gets shut down they don’t move too much away form the original game plan since it has orked b4 so they might feel it’s aone time thing, but now since it happened it again expect them to change it up. McDaniels was good at this in NE and i doubt he’ll stop suddenly in devner.
Obviously we have some holes, you don't build a champoinship team overnight. We are lightyears ahead of where we thought we would be I am happy even though we have had a couple losses.

As a nearly-lifelong Broncos fan, I have to say that Steelers and Broncos fans have A LOT in common … they are die-hard, committed and both travel well. My wife is a Steelers fan, so she had fun watching the game tonight. I did not.
I’ve lived in Pittsburgh, and it’s a wonderful city. I lived in Western PA for about 25 years and now live in Columbus, Ohio. I was born a Browns fan, but became a Broncos fan to have something in common with my father, who started rooting for them in the early 60s when they were awful.

IDK,
the O kept the D on the field WAY too much…
Wrong.
The teams has two halves that need to work together. When one (the O) doesn’t deliver, the other fails (D).

McDaniels got his butt handed to him two weeks in a row. He didn’t learn one single thing from the Baltimore loss. That is disappointing. 6-2 is great and I think he can coach, but he has his hands full with our sorry offense.
This is my favorite website.
More like the sorry interior line play
Plus, the bad blitz pickups by the RB’s.

Nor do we even try. 10 total offesive points in two games. We have a real problem on O. We’re not a good offensive team. No running game and now we can’t score. Moreno looks like a 7th round pick out there.
This is my favorite website.
Damn right about problems
across the board….Can’t keep pressure off Orton, can’t run the ball, can’t spread the field, this isn’t looking good.
Nice signature, McG.

Our offense is just a HUGE concern

It is because we can't run
And we can’t run because we’re running a power scheme with a smallish line.
Where’s the ZB? Why are we running a one-dimensional short passing offense? Because of the matchups?
Berger?
One good punt, 4 bad punts.
Washington has a good defense. Time to worry, with a short week…
I's official...
Orton sucks. And Berger’s worse.
Orton sucks?!!?
Were you saying this to Cutler last year when he threw all those INTs?

i wouldnt say rtons sucks...
so much as he isnt the rottenburger type who will carry a team on his back.

Oh bullshit!!
What is a QB supposed to do against the Steelers defense when they can’t run and WON’T try SOMETHING deep??

Nah, for it to be official, he wasn't supposed to kick ass in the other games...

or

or any opinion that is final at all, just wait 16 games?

2 weeks of a really inept looking offense.
at some point you want to see them impose a little more.
that said, the first drive or 2 looked ok. and then… nothing.

Theres a reason Pitt is defending champs
we looked good to start…they adjusted and shut down what was working, we failed to adjust…we lose. That’s what great teams do. Take a hit, then dish it back and don’t get hit by the same punch. That’s what they did. We’re 6-2 and still in control. But there are disturbing signs that if not adressed, will be exploited and we will unravel quickly.
Lost turnover battle, thus, lost TOP, thus lost game.

"Practice doesn't make perfect. PERFECT practice makes perfect." - Vince Lombardi
Our offense is lacking a deep threat.....
without one our offense is very predictably….pass the ball 5 yards and hope for some missed tackles, THAT WILL NOT WORK ALL YEAR!
and without a run game to get those mid range throws,
tonight is the result.

so here is what i have to say
Orton is a good QB, but just didnt have his game today. he was asked to deal with no run game and bad pass protection, and bad blitz pick ups by knowshon. i dont see why we went away from the 6 lineman formation.
as for the defense. this D gave it all they got until they broke. they were just gassed because of the ineffiecient offense. need a pash rush though.
i dont care if orton doesnt have a super strong arm. OPEN UP THE PLAY BOOK. TAKE A SHOT DOWN FIELD!!! that also falls on the oline to block long enough tho…

yeah, it is a series of breakdowns.
for as stellar as our exterior olinemen are, the interior got shredded.
if the run could have gotten anything… if if if.

he had a bad game but the O-line has to do its job for anything else to work

The best thing right now is to go sleep or take a walk (but don’t get mugged), seriously. Just calm yourself and realise the bigger picture. It’s just one loss. Not the whole season crashing down.

Night guys/girls
Try to sleep this one off and be ready to come back next week for Washington. We’ll get to the 11 victories. Just remember, we lost to the 2 AFC Championship teams and one of the was the SB champs. We didn’t lose to chumps. We’ll get SD at home and all will be well in Broncos Country again.
different strategy, same result
i was impressed with orton getting rid of the ball quicker with some nice slants. at some point early in the game though, don’t you let orton throw it deep, just so the defense knows thats in our playbook. steelers def. just kept crowding closer to the line taking away a chance at running the ball.
How did an 8-8 team land such a brutal schedule?
Patriots, Colts, Steelers, Cowboys, Giants, Ravens, Eagles?
Wait 'til next millennium!
because all of those teams had a down year last year and we got two tough divisions to play with the afc north and the nfc east
bad luck
