The Broncos don't win easy, but they sure do "win exciting". It took 4 quarters plus 14 and a half minutes of overtime for the Broncos to put the final dagger into the heart of the San Diego Chargers. With so many ups and downs, this post-game report could get a bit lengthy.
The game started with what looked to be a miserable defensive drive for the Broncos. Ryan Mathews was running rampant through gaping holes in the defensive line, but as the Chargers entered Broncos territory, the defense stiffened. The Chargers settled for a field goal.
The Broncos offense, on the other hand, struggled to string a drive together. They had some decent gains on the ground thanks to Willis McGahee, but after some 3rd down failures (including a pass low and away to Demaryius Thomas, a drop on 3rd down by Eddie Royal and a missed personal foul when Tim Tebow was having his facemask ripped off) the Broncos struggled to sustain drives. The Chargers took over and Philip Rivers connected with Antonio Gates for a touchdown midway through the second quarter.
Both teams struggled to move the ball until Eddie Royal set up the Broncos with good field position after a 31 yard return into Chargers territory. Tim Tebow connected with Daniel Fells for 19 yards, who promptly fumbled the ball which was then corralled by Orlando Franklin. The drive continued. Tim Tebow capped off the drive with a beautiful 18 yard pass to Eric Decker up the left seam after a pump fake to the left.The momentum was clearly on the Broncos side going into halftime, but after the Broncos received the kickoff, they were forced into a 3 and out after Jeremiah Johnson dropped a quick slant that would have gone for a first down plus some. The Broncos punted and the Chargers rumbled down the field for yet another field goal. The Broncos still trailed by only 6 points, so the game was still well within reach.
After swapping punts, the Broncos took over and began to drive down the field. On 3rd and 5 from the Chargers 42 yard line, Tebow dropped back and waited for what seemed like an eternity and then threaded the needle to Matt Willis for a gain of 14. Despite the momentum, the Chargers defense stiffened and the Broncos settled for a field goal. The Broncos trailed 10-13 at the end of the 3rd quarter.
The Chargers started yet another long drive as Ryan Mathews broke a long run down the right sideline, with Vincent Jackson creating a seal with a huge block on Quinton Carter. The Hines Ward rule was unenforced and the Chargers kicked a 48 yard field goal that sailed wide right. The score remained 10-13.
The Broncos drove down the field again, but the drive stalled as Tebow ran for a 3rd down conversion and it was called back for a JD Walton holding penalty. The next play, Paul Oliver pushed off on Eric Decker, but the referree failed to call a pass interference penalty. The Broncos punted.
After a quick first down to Vincent Jackson, the Chargers took over around the 30 yard line. Von Miller came off the edge with a beautiful spin move that resulted in a timely sack for the Denver defense. The next play, Brian Dawkins came up the middle and hit Rivers as he threw, forcing the Chargers to punt on 4th down.
The Broncos took over at their own 26 yard line, still down 3 points, with 5:27 left in the game. After two quick runs for no gain, Tim Tebow laid it up for Eric Decker who came down with a brilliant diving catch at the Chargers 36 yard line. The Chargers challenged the completion, but there was no denying the greatness of this catch. Another Willis McGahee run for no gain forced a 2nd and 9. Tebow threw a beautiful pass down the right sideline over an outstretched Charger hand to Dante Rosario. With the Chargers stuffing yet another McGahee rush up the middle, the Broncos let the clock run to the 2 minute warning. The Chargers pass defense showed up on 2nd down and Tim Tebow threw the ball away as he rolled to the left, which brought up a critical 3rd down and 8. He spun and juked, but came up short, gaining only . The Broncos settled for a field goal to tie the game at 13.
With 1:34 on the game clock, Philip Rivers went back to work at the Charger 25 yard line after a 5 yard penalty was added to the touchback, thanks to a David Bruton offsides. The Chargers dinked and dunked at theirown 40 yard line with 1:08 on the clock and ran out of bounds to stop the clock. The next play, Elvis Dumervil came up with a huge 10 yard sack on 1st down. A draw and a short pass play indicated their willingness to run out the clock, but John Fox and company refused to take a timeout to give the offense time to function. Sudden death overtime.
The Broncos won the coin toss and elected to receive. The Broncos offense took over at their own 20 yard line. McGahee ran up the middle for 16 yards across the 36 yard line. After a short Tebow run to the left and a short McGahee run to the right, the Broncos faced a 3rd and 2 from their own 44 yard line. Tebow gained only one.
John Fox decides to punt the football and the Broncos pinned the Broncos at their own 8. Ryan Mathews matched McGahee's 16 yard OT run with a 16 yarder of his own. After a 1st down run for 1 yard and an incompletion as he was flushed to the right on second down, the Chargers faced a 3rd and 9 from their own 25. This became a 3rd and 14 from the 20 as Philip Rivers was called for a delay of game penalty. With a slot right, Rivers' arm was hit as he threw by a ferocious Von Miller off the right tackle. The ball fell harmlessly to the turf and the Chargers punted it right back to Eddie Royal at the Broncos 30 yard line.
After a run for no gain and an incompletion, Tim tebow threw a quick slant to Jeremiah Johnson (the same route that Johnson dropped earlier in the game) which was ruled as a first down. The placement on the ball was reviewed and ruled to be just short of the first down. 4th and a half a yard.
The Broncos punt again with 9 minutes left in overtime.
The Chargers throw a quick 11 yard pass to move the ball out over the 30 yard line. After a short pass and a short run, yet another critical 3rd down arose. 3rd and 4 from the Charger 37 yard line. The Broncos called the first of their two timeouts after getting an offensive look that they weren't particularly happy with. It didn't seem to help as Antonio Gates caught a 5 yard pass in front of Chris Harris. A few plays later Von Miller jumped offsides and gave the Chargers a 2nd and 2 at midfield. Ryan Matthews broke free and Brian Dawkins wrestled him down at the 35.
The Chargers reached the magical red line that CBS indicates to be field goal range and continued down to the 35, but Von Miller snuck through for a 4 yard loss on 3rd down to push the Chargers back for a 53 yard attempt on 4th down.
Marcus Thomas blocked the field goal, but a timeout was called by Denver and the Chargers got another shot at it. Nick Novak missed it.
Tebow Time.
The Broncos took over at their own 43 yard line. He ran for a first down to the right sideline, out of bounds at the Charger 45 yard line. The next play, Tebow called his own number again and rumbled down to the 41 yard line.
Then Willis McGahee took over and pounded his way through the line and deep into the Charger secondary, down at the 17 yard line. Tebow centered the ball for Matt Prater on 1st down and 10. On 2nd and 12, the field goal unit came onto the field with 33 seconds left in overtime.
Prater kicked a 37 yard field goal to win the game.
The Broncos are 6-5. Neither team gave up a turnover. The Chargers haven't won a game in November and the Broncos haven't lost a game in November.
Go Broncos!

Soothing win
All the hatred for the Chargers over the last few years (especially the constantly yapping Rivers) and knowing we might have just dealt the killing blow to their season makes this one sweeeeeeeeeeet.
A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.

I couldn’t agree more. There is something eminently dislikable about Mr Rivers. He strikes me as the kind that was the cowardly Jr. high school bully who made sure to only pick on the disabled kids. I find seeing him get smacked around by the likes of Doom and Miller quite enjoyable.
The Dawkins sack
was extremely enjoyable.

I can't post here much as I'm nearly always behind when I'm watching the games
But what can you say about Tebow? No matter how much dislike his religious beliefs and his strong pushing of them, I cannot deny that he is a football player. Tough and resolute with an amazing ability to produce when the game is on the line. In some ways I think he is playing in the wrong era as the days before the rules strongly protecting the quarterback would have suited him perfectly. Whatever. This kid is a winner pure and simple. Who would have dreamt we would be 6-5 after our 1-4 start?

I think so..
But that’s a huge division win if it comes to tiebreakers later on.
We may be the same seed, but we’re in better position than we were yesterday.
Go-Go Gadget Tebow!!!!
Actually, Denver is the 7th seed at the moment.
And think about this: we hold the tiebreak over the 6th seed — Cincinnati.

I'm still a little ticked at the no call on Tebows facemask AND Decker's should have gotten that pass interference call at the 1
we would have won the game before if that pass interference call was actually called.
It was a blatent push off 5 yards from the ref. I swear, ref’s always work against us when we play the chargers. Rivers must be sleeping with the right people or something.
When LT left the Chargers and joined the Jets, both teams had a net intelligence gain.

Maybe they still feel bad about that when they blew call when Cutler simply dropped the ball?
I don’t know. The past few years it seems we rarely get a call even when it’s blatant.

Funny enough
Rivers stat line today is almost identical to Tebow’s from the Detroit game. Curious to see if any “experts” freak out about Rivers and his season-killing atrocious play or if it’s still going to be all “TEBOW CAN’T THROW THE BALL BOKBOKBOK”
A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day.

Tebow actually had a nice day throwing the ball. However too many drives for the broncos were stopped with mental errors—drops and penalties. Good job by the defense, Von Miller is the best defensivie player in the NFL right now.

Only 1 bad pass in my opinion....
I just wish they would pass more…..like…some short patterns. :)

W-L record doesn't matter to me.... I just want to see a team on the rise at the end of the year!
McCoy can't pass on first down....his play-calls are hurting this team!
I think it is coming.
Fox and therefore McCoy will always be run heavy….but the passing today is what kept us in the game, and I think that they will wee that and move forward with that aspect of the game.
I agree
I think the film will show that Tim is ready. The Vikings are the perfect defense for him to throw against.

In Tebow's presser
He mentioned that he deliberately threw out there out of being conservative… so, still a bad pass, but at least it was more out of being conservative (which should open up over time), and not physical inaccuracy.
love seeing tebow and decker starting to connect a bit more...
and what about rosario? 2 crucial catches for a first down in the past 2 games? The little things that just might make a good thing down the road….Love to see a few throws at the TE’s ..
But we are looking better and better every week…
Never give up! Never Surrender!
We gotta win sooner, this is too hard on my nerves. I love this team. Go Broncos!

Great win and when is the last time a division had a divisional on the road sweep..besides the Pack ?

all on the road ?
I also noticed Tim has broken the all time rushing record for an NFL QB in a season..and it ain’t over yet by a long shot.

???? last year Oakland was 6-0 against the AFC West
Meaning they swept the away games. They swept the home games. They swept the division.
I was replying to DLMyers
that each division team, including the Raiders, plays not two games away and two at home but three and three — because there are three other teams in the division. Sorry if I was unclear.

Lets get some consistent open recievers that catch the ball
Tim is not going to throw to a threatened player, and he’s not going to throw an interception if he
can help it..
There were more dropped and missed passes in this game than any that could be considered over or under thrown.
He will put it almost on the ground and away if there is close coverage..every time.

JJ dropped one, and I'm thinking there were two others but I don't know where they were right now.

Tebow did miss some open receivers. I remember on the 3rd down play we converted to Willis D. Thomas was wide open in the slot for a 1st. The completion to Willis went for more yards but he still had him open.

Probably several missed receivers
Another crucial one was when Willis was WIDE OPEN in the middle of the field late in the game. I suspect if we were to roll tape, he missed a few. Still, no interceptions, eh?
And how about that O-line—played phenomenally again today.
Guys, ALL QB's miss open WR's...its not only Tebow...keep the playing field fair......

Now that's what I like to see.
Solid play in all three phases. Still some undisciplined play but this is what we needed to see.
Tebow threw well and contributed with his feet. Took good care of the ball and made good decisions. Few more games like this and I will feel good about our QB situation.
Consistency. Its the key to long term success. We saw a lot of that today.
Tim Tebow, Tim Tebow Tim Tebow. Tim Tebow, Tim Tebow. Furthermore, Tim Tebow. Also, Tim Tebow. In conclusion, Tim Tebow. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go Tim Tebow my Tim Tebow. Everybody have a Tim Tebow Tebow, Tebow!

Seriously
McCoy needs to adjust. Clearly Tebow isn’t as bad a passer as he was a couple weeks ago. He was throwing nice passes and showed some of the best (no exaggeration) pocket presence I’ve ever seen, he’s ready to throw on 3rd down and sometimes on 1st
Still doubt Tebow?
His pocket presence is awesome
but it’s easy to be cool when you have 11 seconds to throw lolol

I think that was also
because they had some spies and would rather have Tebow in the pocket then let him escape. Still, there were times where even Aaron Rodgers would’ve been sacked and Tebow escaped to make a play
Still doubt Tebow?
Definitely
Some of those rushes you see on the box score were pass plays but Tebow just scrambled around like the maniac he is. Kid just finds a way to get it done. I’d guess we probably called 24 pass plays in this game but protection breakdowns caused Tebow to run. I’m fine with that.

Only one really bad throw I can think of...
And it might’ve been a throw-away. He’s not incredibly accurate, but he’s definitely improving and should get more shots to throw the ball.
Go-Go Gadget Tebow!!!!
maybe, just maybe, they are concerned with the wr's ability to get open
we do have a very young bunch of Wr’s. they need some more time also to get their timing right with Tebow….It will happen, and we will be very dangerous when that happens…
we may also need to go get a number one wr also…. but we still have the rest of the year to see who shows up.
We did pass on first down late
We just didn’t mix it up real well.
I'm just glad people are moving away from specifics. It used to be, this week he will feel. Tebow wins. Well, it was a bad team, he will fail for sure this week because he sucks. He wins.
Now it’s turned to it’s not him, the Denver defense is AMAZING and Sanchize and Philip Rivers blow!. Now it’s, we aren’t sure when he will fail but MARK OUR WORDS HE WILL!.
It’s just so dang entertaining watching people who want the kid to fail only because they get annoyed by his fans. Like it’s his fault. He probably won’t win a Super Bowl or be the next Tom Brady but it’s sort of sad to see people wanting him to crash and burn for no other reason than to gloat about how they were right about him all along, instead of enjoying the kid for what he is.

Small movements in the pocket
Can double the amount of time he has. Not just the O-line goes into how much time a qb has, he can take good protection and ruin it by moving the wrong way. Saw that many times with Orton, have seen it very few times with Tebow.
It’s something Peyton Manning and Tom Bady are both amazing at. Small movements in the pocket make a huge difference.

True, I guess, about orton....re the small movements.
But you never saw the escape (much anyway), ie, not the big movements in or from the pocket. Also, I think the option attack slows the D rush. (see below). Different styles.
There is a direct relationship between the time he has and the option playbook.
The D wants to get aggressive and rush like mad, but they have been coached all week to read the play first. By the time they realize it is a pass, the Oline is all over them.
How strange is it
we’re probably going to be favored going into next week’s game 0_o

by AConn on Nov 27, 2011 6:29 PM MST reply actions 1 recs
considering how far we've come since last year
I’d be okay with 1 and done in the playoffs. Yeah, I hope for more, but man, that is one hell of a turn around!!!
When LT left the Chargers and joined the Jets, both teams had a net intelligence gain.
After going 4-12 last year and starting this season 1-4
1 and done in the playoffs would be a dream
TurfSharks.com
better to have a reflective GM
I think Elway is right on to simply continue evaluating through the end of the season. Why commit if you don’t have to? They’ve done everything they possibly can to revamp the offense for Tebow this season so why not see how much he grows and develops this year and then Elway makes a decision on whether or not Tebow can take us to a championship or not and goes from there.
by ddtraveller on Nov 27, 2011 6:32 PM MST up reply actions 1 recs
I don't expect a decision to made publically until the end of the season
but if Tebow is not the starting QB next year I’ll be shocked. They probably won’t commit to him long term this year but I fully expect for them to give Tebow at least one more year.
And now for something completely different
by AlbertaBronc on Nov 27, 2011 6:33 PM MST up reply actions
I agree here
And by the way, committing just means a slightly longer rope (maybe that they are not actively drafting your replacement in the first round every year). Lots of QBs that have bad stretches get the axe. It will always be about what you have done lately that counts.
Originally I thought 7-9...
…with Tebow going 6-5 in his starts would make Elway stick with Tebow. Elway is stubborn though. Saw that back in the day when him and Reeves would go at it. But when Tebow finally wins over Elway, I’m pretty sure Elway will be with him until the end.

It wasn't like we were sitting back in coverage the whole time
we were just missing tackles
Still doubt Tebow?
The Chargers attacked the edges where Dummervil and Von are probably the weakest in holding the edge
One play I remember seeing Von get sucked up inside and the lane was free for like 10 yards (although I think Tolbert ran that play), but Von and Doom both have a tendacies to crash inside and don’t maintain contain when they should, I think they will get better at it, just something they need to practice more of.

that was huge, Turner should’ve just kicked it there. We knew they were running it, and it wasn’t like they were gonna have a huge game. Still, your not gonna see me complain
Still doubt Tebow?
If it was the one I was thinking about
It was a cut back. Von actually beat his guy inside and was in great position, but there was another guy just standing there that engaged him just as Tolbert committed outside and he needed to pop back outside. I agree, but there should have been another backer flowing to that position. If Von was taking on two guys, someone should have been free for the cutback.
Props to Goodman!
He was fantastic all game. I know his assignment wasn’t the hardest but he did his job.

We had them where we wanted them when they had us by 10 or less
I think most of us figured it’s a win so long as we do what we do. Close games belong to us. They belong to Tebow and the defense. In fact, I’ll bet Prince Tebow is disappointed in himself right now, that he wasn’t the one to take the ball in for his team. Still happy for his team, though.
Can’t throw, bad footwork, never gonna make it in this league. This is a fluke, it’s unlasting, it can’t work for long. You’re a Fullback, not a quarterback. You can’t win.
Um, shut the front door.
The best thing about this game is that Timmy is probably mad at himself right now. He shouldn’t be. But he probably is. HE wasn’t the one to pull out the victory by himself. To him, he probably feels like a failure. He’s probably hungry.

As vanilla as the playcalling was at times Tebow came out smelling pretty darned good...

I heard him on ESPN post-game today
Him nor Tom Jackson had a bad word to say today. Dilfer spent an awful long time talking about how Tebow inspires the team and they want to play better for a guy like him and Tom Jackson pretty much echoed those sentiments. And Dilfer also said the only reason analysts say it can’t be done is that it hasn’t been done. But that he would like nothing more to be wrong and for Tim and this new-fangled offense to pan out and win Superbowls.

I love knowing that we’re no longer a “yo-yo” team. No more up and downs. We’ll win some, we’ll lose some. But we know what to expect every week. We have consistency. Finally. And that, my friends, is the sign of a playoff team.

Goodman was amazing today and Rosario has been critical the last 2 weeks
Fells has had his good moments but he doesn’t hold the ball securely and its clear he is susceptible to fumble. The Green Bay game we weren’t so lucky. Watch how he holds the ball compared to other players, its much less secure.

But our defense overall was stellar.
These were the worst refs we have had this season.
I liked the play calling but we should have handed it off more in overtime ( i know most of you hate that). I thought a QB sneak should have been called when we were that close. Generally, I liked the play calls until we got into overtime.

I am not sure I am on board
We were predictable a lot… whcih can be OK if you set up the killer later, but I did not see that. We ran on first down almost ever time until we finally decided to pass on first down… then we passed on first down every time for a long stretch. The creativity does not seem to be there.
One thing I will say, I think we saw how an NFL defense will defend the tripple option. Clearly the Dolts put a lot of time into that (and not so much on tackling…). If you give the correct assignments, it can be defended. We might see that begin to decline in our arsenal, but we will probably run it periodically to keep teams working against it in practice (because if they don’t…)
I thought most the "bad calls" were due to bad positoning. 3rd and long after a penalty or something stupid.
If we can cut down mistakes the playbook will open up. We are playing conservatively in those situations for a reason, look at our excellent turnover ratio. I’m probably one of the few who like McCoys play calling. Although I think you can say it was predictable that there would be a run, the beauty of it is that the defense is thinking the same thing. That is a great setup that has worked in our favor before. You have to take some (run it in obvious situations) to lull them.
I also like the run plays. Although you may think they are predictable, I saw some excellent misdirection today.
The Chargers Defended Tebow by leaving a spy, (usually Laboy, an above average DE). This worked fairly well because it forced Tebow to stay in the pocket or run for zero/minimal yards. Tebow needs to improve his reads, he misses open guys.
I think Tebow was defended pretty well today. The forced field goal in the redzone in the 4th showed us that. We ran basically the same thing we did against the Jets and they had it covered well. I didn’t like the play calling there.

Yes, but they still gave up 2 big plays in OT that put us into FG range for win....
They defended it well, but we still used it really well, and rushed for over 200 yards. I would say we still crushed it with the option.

my point was teams that are losing normally give up on the run
where as teams that are winning will run the ball a lot more. You’ll rarely see a team down by more than a touchdown run the ball constantly even if they were doing nothing but running the ball before they were down.
This stat shows that when you run the ball well you win not that when you run a lot you win. Imagine if the 2010 broncos ran the ball 30 times a game. Think we would’ve won a ton of games.

I was way more upset that we did not try to end it in the 4th.
Letting the clock run out in that position was foolish IMO. We did not need to take those TOs with us. We could have ended the game much earlier with a decent return and a couple first downs.
I was ok
with not giving SD the extra down. The defense was playing well, why give them another chance for a break out play?

Just got back from the game. My boys first NFL game, I bet they remember this one. Watching VonDoom in person was simply amazing. I can only wonder how much more destructive they will be when Mcoy fully unleashes Tebow and we actually play a game ahead.
That's awesome man!
Hope you and your son had a great time and glad it was a game to remember. It seemed like the Dolts fans were pretty subdued once we got the ball with 5 minutes to go. Was that the case.

To tell you the truth, where I was sitting there was alot of Broncos fans but the overall feeling was nervousness from both us and chargers fans alike.
Finally overthrew the yoke...
of Dolts beating us in the last part of our season to send us reeling from the playoffs. Great play by the Defense…Would love to know if Dennis Allen is interested in the head coach position down the road. The Defensive adjustments are superb. Von Doom makes it easy too! And Tebow…wnat an arm today….that long pass to Eric Decker was sublime! Raiders will crash soon vs Lions and Green Bay (probably not Miami next week, but we can hope). When we hand a loss to the Vikings next week, we will be 7-5, and that even looks like a winning record! We are heading to the playoffs and we are gonna shock some people with our total team efforts! More Orange Kool-Aid for everyone! Wahoooo!
And Elway, stay off the frickin sideline…you had your time…this is Tebow time, and he doesn’t need your kryptonite presence down there….every QB since you retired has lived in your shadow haunted by expectations, and you go down there and stand next to the guy…uh uh…no way…get your arse back to the booth…I know Tebow is prooving you wrong, and if we win a playoff game you are going to be hard-pressed with tons of fans in #15 jerseys to try and rid this team of our beloved option QB…he showed today that he can throw…I hope to hear you claim that he has improved…peace out…Go Broncos!

Another fun win. Tebow played better, but he is proving our WRs (other than Decker) are not starting material on most NFL rosters. Royal’s drops have to stop. Dude, ball hit you in the belly today. J Johnson also had a terrible drop on 3rd down that hit him between the 3 and 7. It’s disappointing none of our WRs are making the shoe string catches, but when the ball hits you in the numbers? Come the hell on guys.
We are going to need to spend a pretty high draft pick at WR. Someone that has great hands and is willing to block. Royal and DT are only the latter.

I only saw 2 bad passes
the first one to Thomas and the second one was over decks head when he had Willis WIDE open. But those drops were absolutely terrible. I can see the JJ drop, as he was on PS a couple weeks ago, but enough is enough from Royal. Every game it seems he has one drop

Willis wasn’t open. He had Weddle lurking nearby. Tebow did the right thing and airmail that one out of bounds. Our less than stellar WRs didn’t get open on that play.
Tim Tebow's career record is 5-3. He is the worst 1st round pick EVER! He is an embarrassment to the NFL! Did I say that with enough conviction to get a job with ESPN?
Depends.
If he had seen him as he made his break, there was plenty of field to lead him away from Weddle and back over the middle. He did not seem to be looking there and that might not be part of his read progression on that play, so we have no idea if he “missed” him.
agreed my post wasnt trying to nitpick
my point is that Tebow only had 2 bad throws and looks a lot better. Every QB has some bad throws, unless your name is Rodgers, of course

I love our D
But I would have tried to stop the clock in the 4th quarter and I would have gone for it on 4th and a half yard just to make a statement as much as anything else.
I was skeptical that Allen could continue to hide the weakness at DT and in the run game, but we have been able to cover that very well. Bunkley has been playing incredible and Miller is creating havok while Dawk is blowing guys up. I saw Mays make some killer hits this game too and Elvis looks like he is back again. Carter is the weak link, but that is not surprising. We are playing great!
geez, man...
i can’t remember having A defense. even in the lombardi years our defense was more a product of our offense dominating and hogging the ball. this is different. this is actually a defense that can win games. holy cow, fox and allen have at the very least already bought themselves more tenure than McD just based on that alone. i can’t… i mean… wow.

Denver has beaten some teams with some flaws but it’s that they know how to choke the life out of the other team at the end that I love. This was San Diego’s season and they were desperate. At the end of the game and all these games we’ve won recently the opposing QB is looking really uncomfortable and even down points it just seems like the momentum inexorably grows for the Broncos as these games go on. Really interesting to watch.
that Oline held us well for 3.5 quarters but when it really mattered... wow!

and the pass blocking...
was absolutely phenomenal…was Tebow even sacked on a pass attempt (besides when he decided to run and got tackled)? The team is getting batter each week and still playing as a team…I love it! I was on Pearl Street in Boulder at the Lazy Dog Sports tavern….and they had 20 tvs on the game and there was one SD lady cheering for the Dolts…and when we did something great the place just went up in a marvelous mile high uproar! Such great camaraderie…even Steelers fans were high fiving me! LOL And my 72 year old dad was jumping up and high fiving me with a bad arm! LOL
we had Raiders fans caught up in it!
awesome

Winning in SD is always awesome
Loved it when Novak did a Kaeding impersonation. Freaked out when a timeout was called after we blocked a FG in OT. This win will make the next few days down here in SD so much fun….haha!
I was very pleased to see Tebow’s passes getting better. Several of those drops were not on him. He is improving every week, however the team has to get better at 3rd down.
McGahee is a stud and props to the front office for picking up this guy in the offseason.

A friend on Twitter
told me during the day, after I was complaining about scummy officiating, that this was Scott Green’s crew except for Scott Green. Triplette filled in for him, this is both dubious and disturbing. I’ll take the win though!

Runs up the middle - copied from minor thread
Everyone pans runs up the middle. But they worked for big gains for McGahee at least a couple of times. Most importantly, it was the run up the middle that got us the win – McGahee rumbled to SD 16 from which Pater kicked FG easily. Did you see Elway smiling and high-fiving after that run? It was up the middle. Sure it didn’t work all the time – it would be impossible. But if it wins games, stick with it.
It is all about balance and keeping the D guessing
We have to run up the middle sometimes, or Defenses will not respect it. It is also the fastest way to hit a hole, so if you can pop it, you can get big gains (as we did).
Aint it nice to have an offensive Captain that will elevate his game when it is all on the line
And happily I do not mean Tim Tebow (his days as Captain will come some day). McGahee is bringing it (when healthy). He was jumping through those arm tackles and gashing the not so super Chargers. YEEE HAW!
He always falls forward and that alone is huge.
At one point he was carrying a 10 man pile on him… unless my eyes fooled me.
LOVE McGahee.. Been preaching it from the moment we signed him.

I love our D
It has been so long since I have said that… I almost forgot how to form the words. Dennis Allen needs a raise!
Gotta give love to the Special Teams.
Colquitt and the coverage has been great.
The return game is averaging good numbers too.
Sucks that Vaughn went down so early… hope he’s okay.

OK has this been addressed yet? I saw Tebow straight up eying down WRs/faking to them only to turn to another for the pass....

Yup..he's looking more comfortable every week.
The most revealing pass to me however was the 18 yarder to Rosario. That was a perfect pass with a tight spiral and just the right trajectory. My takeaway from it is that Tim is starting to relax a little and just throw the ball instead of worrying about mechanics. also the TD pass to Decker he made a quick shoulder fake that brought the safety in and it created a wide open TD.
" I'm blessed to be part of a team with very unselfish players who don't care about statistics, they just care about winning" - Tebow owning Michael Irvin when Irvin asked him "what do you say to your receivers after you throw a ball in the dirt and miss them".
by asinsoin on Nov 27, 2011 11:06 PM MST up reply actions 1 recs
I totally agree
Ibsaw a few pump fakes and that shoulder move on the Decker TD moved the safety over. There was another one late in the game when Tebiw scrambled out of the pocket that got the LB to leave his feet. You can tell SD respected Tim’s legs today and that opened up the pass.

Winning.
I dont care how the broncos win. Whether its defense, offense, ST, it does not matter to me. Today was a complete effort. Von and Doom were awesome. Eddie had a great PR before halftime which set up our O for the TD. This is a special team folks. Tebow gets all the credit and all the blame but we faithful and dedicated bronco fans know that we have a TEAM. Our D is playing better than it has in a decade and our Offense is doing enough propelled by Tebow. Britton Colquitt is playing field position like he invented the idea and Prater is making FG all day. The analysts can say what they want but they haven’t been right about our team in a month. I love this team like all of you and I will ride this winner wagon all the way to the playoffs! GO BRONCOS! GO MHR!
In addition..
Last time I checked the formula for winning in the NFL was…1. Playing good Defense. 2. Be able to run the ball. 3. Be able to stop the run 4. Do not turn the ball over. Umm, Check, check, check, and check. Much love to all of you Bronco fans! Let the winner wagon roll!
Sorry I missed the game...
Sounds like it was another nailbiter.
Looking only at the recap and stats, I have to say this appears to be TT’s best game yet. If he can put up 95 QBRs and more than 7.5 NYPA every game, that is plenty enough to win.
GO BRONCOS!
