Why call that time out when the Colts were rushing out there to set up for the kick?

Wait until right before... That was so dumb

To give us a final chance if he made it. Of course it wasn’t going to work but that’s what Fangio was thinking.

We had 20 seconds at the end instead of 0.

I still think when they were rushing out there like the Colts were you wait. You feel rushed, bad things happen

If he doesn't call the timeout the offense doesn't have any time. If you are going to call the timeout you call it early like he did or you let them run the clock down so the kick is the last play. I don't know that it matters either way.

The coaches lost this game. You have already lost games to team who needed only a FG to win. 3rd and 5 and you give up not even attempting to close the game out. hoping again for the defense which is tired and played a hell of a game to win.

Flcaco called out the coach (scang?) who decided to run a draw play . Just sad.

I was just watching Flacco. He looks like an idiot! Hopefully that will get him to the bench for Lock. Flacco hasn't thrown a td in 3 games.

I have no issues with the time out. You gotta give yourself a chance to win the game if he makes that FG like he did. Even if it is slim.

Do you think Flacco wants out? I don't think he has any trade value, and his cap this would be too much to actually cut him this year probably.

The offensive play calling for part of the game was much less predicable. It did seem that a lot of the 4th quarter the offense was playing to not lose instead of trying to win.

All teams go through times like this it will pass. We are close enough to not give up on this team just yet .

But it starting to feel like groundhog day.

Scangarello has certainly been taking his lumps as a first time OC .. on that 3rd down play for the game - a first down wins the game - that is all you can muster ??

Total shit call

And failing to generate anything after Wolfe's forced fumble was pathetic

And if there is any truth to the saying "bad teams fins ways to lose games", there is also truth in "big time players make plays in big time situations" -- Miller should have had Brissett

Maybe we're still living in 2014-15 with Miller

I think overall, the Broncos looked like the better team out there today, with the exception of the two big-time positions on either side of the ball failing to make plays ...

Miller had a great game - despite Brissett getting loose on the play of the game.

I was frustrated with the 2nd half play calling - especially. It's like the team and the OC freeze up in the Red Zone and on 3rd down. I think the run game got abandoned in the 2nd half.

That's three heartbreaking losses - that could have gone the other way. It reminds me of McManus in his rookie year - kept hitting the crossbar - he had the distance and was just inches away - was obviously good, but kept failing.

Drew Lock - may not be the answer, but he is really getting teed up an opportunity to make the Broncos his team.

I really dont understand why you are upset about such an obvious decision.

Not so upset, just don't agree with calling time out when he did is all
