Game Thread: Week 10- Denver Broncos @ Kansas City Chiefs

[MileHigh64]

We're definitely making good progress with this young team. I'm happy about that. However, this one is going to stick with me all week. No fan should have to see their team lose in that fashion. Just a kick in the groin.

The games aren’t usually that close so it says something that we were able to compete with the 2 time defending Champs.

NFL wasn’t gonna let Queen Mahomes lose at home.

Good teams find ways to overcome setbacks and ref-provided assists to opponents. Developing teams still are learning how to do this. Were getting closer.

Color me disappointed but upbeat.

On the plus side, it’s three straight games against KC holding them under 20 points.

Vance Joseph is killing it so far.

At least our future is looking better, last year’s game I went to Denver didn’t score until late in the 4th quarter and Russ threw 2 picks. Despite some struggles here and there Nix looks real promising as our guy moving forward.

KC averaging 14.67 PPG against VJ’s defense.

I’m still sick about this. And in no mood to talk about it.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Broncos were a blocked kick away from beathing both the Chiefs and the refs today. So disappointing, but we are definitely trending in the right direction.

This season is a win regardless how it ends.

Unless, they lose out the rest of the way.

 

[DJ Fieri]

For me, this is the most painful loss in many years.

I’m completely in agreement with the statement. Stings like hell.

What a victory today would have meant for this team. We haven’t been in this position for 8-9 years. So yea, it hurts.

First time in Broncos history they sacked Mahomes 4 times as well.

We are really coming along. No moral victories but we are seeing progress. We are in year 2 of SP, but this is year 1 of the full rebuild. We’re 5-5 and have some winnable games down the stretch.

I think 9 or 10 wins is still very much a possibility with this team, especially with the way VJ has this defense playing.

54 lost the game for us but in reality the ST coach lost the game playing with fire
54 has been knocked to the ground 5 times on kick attempts during the last 3 games.

As much as I hate to admit it (because the Donks are... well...the Donks), I have to admit that what I've seen of you guys so far is impressive work. You're definitely better than I thought, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Nicely done...

Thanks, man. That defense is legit. Even after that debacle against the Ravens the Broncos defense ranks #4 in scoring. Offense is a work in progress, but coming along nicely. This is a roster that many graded as the worst in the NFL before the season started. And while it's year 2 of SP, it's year 1 of the rebuild. So to be where they are this early in the process bodes well.
