Draft Crazy was in the area - he already found a way to swipe the Lombardi trophy - and he did that in Iowa. ;)

Slow start on offense again and Okung with big holding penalties in the first half. Okung has to play much better. Great to see the running game got going in this game but would still like to see a 3rd WR or a TE more involved in the offense. Booker was a stud. As for the defense great against the pass which I expected but giving up 5.6 yards per carry is not acceptable. Talib great game once again. Brock looked lost the whole game and in the second half it looked like he wanted to run off the field and cry. These slow starts will catch up to the Broncos if they don't turn it around because if they play a real team like the Patriots and are down 2 scores right away I still don't have enough faith in this offense to catch up with just the passing game. Great win, big game coming up with the Chargers. Peace.

Denver gave up Zero 1st qtr points last year through 6 games
This year 41 almost 7 points per game in the 1st
Good teams boat race Denver like Atl and SD

Odd play calling throwing so much early and coming out of the half plus
The end of the first half with a timeout left at the 40 and 44 seconds
Strong kicker and no attempt to give McManus a shot


Just some more odd play calling

Riley Dixon is becoming a problem. Not once in the 1st half did he flip field position in fact Houston kept gaining 5 yards with every time they stop the Denver offense.. In the 2nd half he had a 36 yard punt. Against a good offense this will spell trouble down the line.

Before this game he had actually been pretty efficient. Not great but not a huge liability either. He had actually been out punting Colquitt when you line up Colquitt's 2015 season to that of Dixon. You are right thought his past game he was problematic. Then you throw in the OL when we had to punt was doing a terrible job and almost had about 3 punts blocked and that punting unit needs to get some things figured out. Many actually think the reason the Broncos were not aggressive to end the 1st half was because Kubiak was worried about how the punt team would do and thought they might give up a big play.
