Thoughts on Game?

[Draft Crazy]

My first thought is HOLY SHIT! (excuse my language)

what a game.

Let's start with Trevor Siemian... Call my impressed. Made a few mistakes like any QB in his situation. He was very calm, played within his game... Overall very happy with Trevor tonight (don't get a big head Randy and Mingo)

Our run game.

Our D started off slow, but really picked it up.

This team is so calm under pressure.

Ill type more later. Im too pumped right now.

We knocked Cam around good in the 2nd half.

Siemian played about as well as I think we could have hoped for. He rebounded well from the two picks. On a big stage, his first start, vs a good D. I think one of the things I liked the most besides seeing a QB who could elude pressure was his checkoffs to CJ Anderson tonight. He didn't force stuff.

The INT to Manny was a bad decision, but he had him open had he not had the pressure.

Grats Bronc fans. Nice start and against Cam! Priceless.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Nice to see Talib have a good game after the sketchy offseason.
Have seen Roby have better games.
Barrett had great pressure
Huge pressure towards end of game, the Von sack, Todd Davis, etc.
Chris Harris's INT was play of game, real turn of momentum for us.
I thought Schofield played well.
TJ Ward isn't the best at covering top tier TE's but he sure can hit.
BMarsh is still a tackle machine.
Run game was on
Janovich made a huge difference.

Defense needs to play a full 60 minutes and Offense needs to limit their mistakes.

But I think the biggest plus is that O-Line looked great against one of the best Front-7's in the league, Okung and Stephenson looked really good at tackle and perhaps Guard was Michael Schofield's calling all along.

Trevor played an excellent overall game - he throws a beautiful looking ball, and his calm demeanor really was a benefit tonight .. Carolina is a very tough D

CJ was awesome ..

Our pass rush up the middle was a little bit of a concern at times, but as the game progressed, we were better ..

Shane Ray looked good

The Panthers had 7 months to prepare since the last meeting and we were up to the task ..

Kelvin Benjamin is excellent

Rivera's decision to call that time out was really idiotic ( on the Sanders 1 yards line catch ) ... You call a time out to give your guys upstairs a chance to look, and then risk losing another TO by throwing the red flag ...Just throw the red flag - that would have saved him one with the call going in Carolina's favor ...

 

[Draft Crazy]

Rivera actually didn't call the TO. Thomas Davis did.

 

[SpiritOf77]

I love Talib, and I agree with the notion that this is his last year here, but Roby isn't nearly what Talib is at CB .....

Love having a FB back

 

[SpiritOf77]

Rivera actually didn't call the TO. Thomas Davis did.

In that case, Rivera should have thrown the red flag sooner, as it was obvious that Sanders was short

 

[SpiritOf77]

BRONCOS WIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually even if you lose the challenge you aren't charged another timeout if you've already called one. You still lose the TO because you called one so it's best to just throw the flag because then you don't lose a TO if you win.

 

[SpiritOf77]

Virg is great .. but we need some more at TE from the other guys

Once this OL and run game hits the midseason mark, it was be a force

Give him a little more time. I think Roby needs a little more seasoning.

I was glad the defense locked in during the 2nd half. They looked a big flat in the first half, and toward the end some bone headed plays toward the end there and nearly gave it away. In the end, that missed FG is entirely on the Panthers, so got one there. The Broncos beat a very good team tonight and they did it with a defense that only played it's style for half the game, behind a recently made over O-line, and a QB who made his first start after being drafted in the 7th last year. All told, I'm entirely satisfied with the game.

Yes, that's what I meant ..

By calling a TO before throwing the flag, that makes no sense ... just throw the flag - worst case scenario, you lose the challenge

 

[SpiritOf77]

man, I do not like Cam Newton

 

[iknowftbll]

Oh, DT had a good game. Those 4 catches for 48 yards aren't going to turn any heads, but he threw a few blocks that were lethal. Plus his head seemed in it. That's a good sign.

That is correct.

I have been up and down with Cam.

Liked him at Florida obviously being a Florida fan.

Quickly grew tired of him at Auburn.

Didn't really care for him much early in his career.

Last two years found myself rooting for him until late in the year last year he started to annoy me with his antics, then after the SB really started to dislike him again and really he hasn't done anything to make me turn back around the other way on him since.

What the hell is with all the Panthers yanking on our player legs after the play?!? Is that not a personal foul ?
