#Broncos 470 yards are the most since Peyton Manning retired. Minimize turnovers and the potential is promising. As Case Keenum said "we got'er done". #Denver7

9. Case Keenum threw three picks, so his Broncos debut certainly wasn’t perfect. But you have to like the way Keenum kept swinging. His teammates certainly did. “We’re not going to get down, that’s Case, that’s some of us other players as leaders on this team,” receiver Demaryius Thomas told the Denver media. “Forget those things and play on. That’s going to be our personality. We’re not going to carry all that negative stuff around with us.” On the game-winning drive against Seattle, Keenum was nails: 4-for-4 for 39 yards and the clinching touchdown.

Was that the one that featured the BLOWN call that gave Denver a TD?

Donks needed help as usual...

Von Miller on pace for 48 sacks and 32 forced fumbles this year.

Pretty good, imo.

Well, Mahomes is on pace for 64 TD Passes!

And KeesINT is on pace for 36 PICKS!

Apparently I should be impressed that Denver gets to open at home against a team that will probably win 4 games and they struggle to a 3 point win...but yep they kick ass.

What are you gonna do when you have to play road games or against teams that don't have none of their good players anymore?

That's exactly the case. Denver was NEVER in control of the game. Took everything they had, and help from the refs, just to barely squeak by a rebuilding team, in their home opener. That's IMPRESSIVE DAMMIT!!!!!

Quesadilla Joe · 09-10-2018, 07:27 AM

Was your _efense really that bad? I only caught the first 20 minutes of the Tyreek Hill show yesterday.

Rivers can be proud of his garbage time numbers if he wants, he had 165 yards passing with 40 seconds to go in the 3rd quarter.

The only reason Seattle was in the game was because of the INT's. Keenum only had 7 INT's all of last year and threw 0 in the preseason. I'm not concerned that the turnovers are going to become a trend, yet.

Mile High Mania · 09-10-2018, 07:30 AM

I don't expect you guys to be impressed... I was marginally happy with it. The defense broke too often on big plays, similar to last year. Offensively though, love what the rookie RBs did - Sutton played a decent role and it was good to see Jake Butt playing. Janovich is back, so that definitely helps things out.

Offensively, yeah they struggled and the INTs were bad (at least 2 of them, one was an excellent play by the DB). I think they have a lot to work on and the upside looks good.

It's about how I figured they would play, but they have to address that coverage issue and what happened to let the SEA TE do the damage. One week at a time.

KC is in the driver's seat and they should be... Broncos are going to lose games like that on Sunday more often than not. Carrol should have challenged the fumble play, but he didn't get it done in time - refs had nothing to do with that one. And, I admitted when it happened that I didn't think DT got his feet in bounds on the TD. Incredibly borderline, the refs made the call and the review didn't reverse it - on the broadcasts, they weren't 100% sure and when that happens - you maintain the call on the field.

Both teams were pretty sloppy. Loved what the Broncos did with pressure on SEA, that was nice, but overall they gave up too many big plays.

Offensively, they moved the ball well and that's a positive - will be interesting to see how they continue to work Freeman and Lindsay.

Your team is not the Minnesota Vikings they are better in every single way, that is why he didn't turn the ball over there.

Keenum was a total piece of shit until literally last year.

Good job on beating the rebuilding Seahawks at home by the skin of your teeth with the assistance of 2 blown game changing calls.

Mecca · 09-10-2018, 07:35 AM

And that Thomas play, how is that a TD? It wasn't even ****ing close.

It's funny how some teams always receive the benefit of the doubt.
