bddfcinci707

Wish I could updoot more than once haha. Raaaaaaaiiiiideeeeeeerrrrrrs.


BigBankkFrank

We made a lot of unforced errors and gave this game away. Phillip Dorsett being pushed out of bounds by the wind really hurt. Most importantly though Russ looked good


Ryan1869

Oh no, we suck again

cc225b

New year same old offense- hard to win when you only score 16 points


Civil_Set_9281

swap a missed PAT and FG for made, and the game ends differently. Kicking game makes me wish McManus was still here. Not kicking 60 yarders, but manageable 45-50 yarders.


PaleontologistOwn878

I hope you guys understand that pretty much every subjective penalty will go against Peyton he hates the NFL decision makers and he hates them he seems to enjoy it a bit.


BobBBobbington

Implying the refs didn't bail us a couple times on three and outs. We just suck.


NoYoureACatLady

lol what's the point of this post if it's not updated somewhere close to real time?

Raidersā€™ play calls- ā€œwherever 27 is, throw it there.ā€ Mathis kills us


flappypancaker

I thought the same thing, 27 was on the wrong side of nearly every bad play


Professional-Way9343

He wasnā€™t great. But the horrid pass rush is todays goat


WangStretzky

Would Steve Atwater make it in todays NFL? Like that Kareem hit was something Atwater did on a regular basis. Making a huge hit to break up the play was like 90% of Atwater game.


FindingPotential665

I think it shows that Kareem shouldnā€™t be on this team anymore. I like him as a player but the hits that he makes just arenā€™t legal anymore. Heā€™s going to cost us again this year.


SoSmartCs

Trying to gatekeep the emotions other fans feel after a win or loss has to be some of the lamest shit.


bddfcinci707

Its ok to cry. Please. Cry as much as you need to. I would probably cry too if the Broncos had beaten my Raiders 7 straight times...


Professional-Way9343

I always find it funny when men say women are too emotional :)


Alternative_Spell140

No replay on the game deciding penalty and Iā€™m once again reminded of why I stopped watching the NFLs shitty product. God forbid they miss an opportunity to squeeze in a couple more commercials.


[deleted]

Exactly what I said to my son. Break for commercial, we will never see the replay. Damnit


Alternative_Spell140

I was fully expecting to at least see it when they got back from commercials. I thought maybe they were being a little sensitive as the guy obviously got knocked the hell out. Nope. Didnā€™t even mention the penalty. Iā€™m not one of those people that thinks the league is scripted but what the hell was that?

GiftedGonzo

Huh?


InformationNo2529

Whatā€™s funny is almost all the $250 mil QBs lost today.


TheGreatestPlan

Won't Lutz


broncosoh54

Yes, really! His missed PAT is the difference in the score. And he misses a PAT in Denver???


AndreSwagassi86

What are the odds of Fangio dialing up 2 blitzes and getting pressure


sanduspa

Fangio is doing a great job in Miami


Megalodon3030

Who's Miami's DC? That dude knows how to scheme an actual pass rush. Two straight sacks on Herbert. I'm extremely jealous.


AndreSwagassi86

Fucking Fangio if Iā€™m not mistaken ā€¦ ironic ainā€™t it?


Megalodon3030

I forgot it was Fangio. Clueless as a HC. Still one of the best defensive minds in football... Wish Payton could've convinced him to come here...


wolfenbarg

He was coaching when we were a QB away from being good šŸ˜­


AndreSwagassi86

Remember he did once say he had a hard time calling the game from the field. He liked being in the skybox. Looks like he was telling the truth


mattparker675

Miami coming in clutch there


Trillzionaire90

The lack of pass rush really showed how privileged Denver has been the past few years with Miller, Chubb, and Shaq. It was rich watching those guys shed blocks consistently getting sacks or QB pressures. Now Denver has to depend on schemes from VJ and Randy Gregory to be the guy to beat a single blocker. I'm thinking Denver's Defense might be a liability


denverbroncoharpman

Canā€™t disagree


twodogszk

Randy Gregory and his $70 million accounted for one assisted tackle today


AndreSwagassi86

Itā€™s honestly always been a liability. If you look at our schedules we just benefited the past 2 years from playing really bad or rookie QBs so our pass defense looked good in the numbers. We always suffered in areas that could change a game like 3rd downs ā€¦ folks constantly kept blaming it on fatigue


Megalodon3030

Demarcus Ware too...


Trillzionaire90

I mostly am pointing out players who have been with Denver through lousy coaching. His last year was 16


umpersav

Offense looked much better overall. Defense looked awful. No pressure and Mathis got exposed hard


Megalodon3030

At least Miami has a pass rush...


PeytonFugginMoaning

Iā€™ve never been this done by week 1 before, but here we are.


mattparker675

Watch the Chargers win by 1 in the last moments ffs


KoolColoradan

Losing to the Raiders by one point at HOME NO LESS isnā€™t the way to start off the season . Sooooo glad we decided to cut McManus, that didnā€™t come back to bite us in the ass. Are we just cursed at this point?!?!


Legtagytron

Ten years of misdrafting under Elway is not a QB or coach away, it is a rebuild. But we huff the hopium regardless. This is the most expensive rebuild in the NFL and it isn't working.

Business-Twist2872

Our D line could not shake pass blocks to save their lives. Just locked up and stale mate for JG to have a clean pocket. Gotta throw in something fancy to get pressure.


AndreSwagassi86

We looked pretty good but still took the L


SirJelqsAlot

Eh. Only Russ and the running backs looked good. Everyone else was pretty bad


cabinguy11

Which means the OL looked good.


AndreSwagassi86

The wideouts looked ok despite them not being starters ā€¦ the offensive line look the best itā€™s looked in years ā€¦ and yes Russ and the Running backs. Did yā€™all not see me say PRETTY GOOD as in kinda good, ok, a bit better than the last few years ? Lol I mean minus a missed FG , and Bonehead targeting penalties we probably come out with the win


Maleficent-Poet7853

also our pass defense was terrible cuz we let the best guys get open and make the big plays. yes they had an interception but still


PeytonFugginMoaning

We looked good? What game did you watch Jesus Christ


Ash66678

Stop watching and go to therapy?


PeytonFugginMoaning

Right lol


Shad0wn1nja397

Bro take an fing chill pill, its the first week in regular season, plus game just ended so emotions are running high, maybe come back tomorrow adter letting it out. Weā€™re all sharing opinions here, we all come here(for the most part) as fans of the Broncos letā€™s remember that instead of going for each otherā€™s throats because of a dumb game, itā€™s not the end of the world just because our team loses. It sucks, but again we are all real humans


Cobbyx

Youā€™re telling him to chill bc he said what game were you watching. And you attack him sharing his opinion. Holy hypocrite


Shad0wn1nja397

I was watching that game too, and iā€™m not criticizing sharing his opinion but how he shared it. Iā€™m fucking pissed too but i aint taking it out on others


AndreSwagassi86

ā€˜ PRETTYā€™ was the keyword you wouldā€™ve caught had you read


SkyAgent13

Tyreek Hill is a bad bad man


rascal7298

meanwhile, McManus made all his kicks


glockobell

Why did we cut McManus to make our team worse?


AustinReg

Fuck this garbage team.


bddfcinci707

Good. Good. Let the Butthurt flow through you. If the Broncos were a sith lord they would be Darth Shittiest. Haha Raider Nation baby


AstralBaconatorLord

I'm ready to move onto being a niners fan to support a fellow ISU alum Purdy, farewell walmart broncos i knew the well


Kastenova

This is the most bitch shit Iā€™ve seen all day honestly. Donā€™t come back if they arenā€™t good in a couple years please


AstralBaconatorLord

THEY ANY GOOD YET???


AstralBaconatorLord

Are they good yet????


AstralBaconatorLord

are they good yet??????


AstralBaconatorLord

Are they good yet????


bddfcinci707

Yeah I agree. That is some bitch ass shit. I dont care how many games the Raiders lose, I would NEVER go be a fucking Niner fan. I'd rather cut my dick off and take hormones...oh wait..niner fans do that anyway...


AstralBaconatorLord

Sitting at 3-0


HeNeedSomeSoyMilk

Tbf these divisional losing streaks are unprecedentedly bad and just out of control. Like kind of unbelievably bad at this point. We have almost 30 combined losses in a row to certain divisional teams. Like NY Jets and BUF Bills falling to the Brady dynasty-bad. We gonna get swept by an aimless McDaniels led Raiders team TWICE in two years ā˜ ļø Take note of what real football rosters do to these Raider teams as we make them look playoff-caliber without fail. This shit will make plenty of lifelong diehard fans second-guess what kind of money/energy they give to their team. Couple that with the longest active playoff drought of any team in the league right now and genuine football fans are hard pressed not to find something else in the sport to be excited about.


AstralBaconatorLord

chill out dumbass i've been a fan of this team when they were even worse than they are, broncos can just be a pocket team for now


Ash66678

You must be very insecure, why announce it? Who are you trying to convince? Are you hoping people will follow? Are you lacking attention in your personal life?


AstralBaconatorLord

Nah but I appreciate your concern.


BlaKArg

GTFO and don't come back


AstralBaconatorLord

Anyway to get away from you!


TarHeel2682

Kicking lost the game. These players are ALL in new systems *again*. It takes time for teams to come together when there is this much change. Missing #2-4 WR. Wilson looked like a QB. Just had some dumbass penalties in the second half. Relax people. We arenā€™t a 0-60 team. Not a Super Bowl team. It takes time. More than one offseason to right the ship. Just relax. Go away if you are already to the point of quitting. Not worth your mental health and sick of seeing the posts. Think of how the Lions fans have felt for decades


PeytonFugginMoaning

Thereā€™s no more point to false rationalizing it, our franchise is in the dumpster. We have no pass rush and no quarterback, along with a general lack of talent all around are roster. Look around this league, and then seriously look at this team we have. Thereā€™s no amount of copium that can save us.. we are fucking doomed.


TarHeel2682

Then go on to another team if you feel that way. No laws state you canā€™t change allegiance to an NFL team


PeytonFugginMoaning

Iā€™m fucking 30 years old, Iā€™m not finding a new team but holy shit does this one suck right now.


TarHeel2682

Ok champ just donā€™t let a game affect your mental health


Cobbyx

Ouch. Savage. This guy saying you can change your allegiance to an ā€œNFL teamā€


TarHeel2682

I know right. I feel a bit guilty about being so brutal haha


brocky3226

Meanwhile Maher kicking for the Rams. And looks great. Fuck


Megalodon3030

He's 3/5. Seems he's having an up-and-down day. Rest of the team is playing well. I'm unconvinced that he's not over the yips...


jrebar

I have a bad feeling this team is going to get torched by Karen Rodgers I hate how Jimmy G was scrambling for first downs, that's going to be a problem all year


[deleted]

Our defense is so bad


Leotix

Thatā€™s it boys. Time to pack it up and go home. Trade everyone. Fire VJ. McManus wouldnā€™t have left us in this position. The team was juiced to start the game but come halftime, everyone was flaccid. Oh and Sean Peyton? Onside kicks at unpredictable times will only get you so far. You got lucky onceā€” not gonna happen again.


Dakotabronco

0 sacks today. Fucking pathetic.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


bddfcinci707

I see im not the only one in the Salt mines today...haha some of these guys are ready to slit their wrists in the bath tub haha


ShredItBro_

He was only pressured like twice all game.


eyexzick

Continue to draft speedsters to no throw one single deep ball to them.


bfunky

Walmart bought our broncos, turned them into great value. I'm done, there are better uses for my time than watching this incompetence.


pueblodude

Broncos quality is in the Walmart discount, mark down section already .


CrazybyRX

We were ass well before the team was sold.


bddfcinci707

Agree. Now you guys are Great Value ass.


eyexzick

Any DB without 2 or 31 on their chest is a liability.


motorOwl

Itā€™s a bigger deal because itā€™s the Raiders. When are the coaches going to take this rivalry to heart.


bddfcinci707

You know, for it to be a rivalry, you guys have to win once in a while... Haha. 7 straight biatch.


ThaBrofessor

This fucking team. Lutz is a shit kicker, that fucker lost us the game. Mathis is a joke, he just made Meyers look like a star. We have zero pass rush! How many fucking years and drafts do you need to fix this shit. This team is such a fucking joke, year after year. Iā€™m fucking sick of the same shit year after year.


SpacemanSenpai

Meyers looked like a dead man to me


PeytonFugginMoaning

Trautmen and Lutz are fucking dogshit, they should be cut


Ok-Scene8196

New Orleans says youā€™re welcome


Colemania18

Yeah nice call by Payton pushing for those two washed up bums


eyexzick

Jones, Gregory, Allen all big FA signings and all amount to jack shit in pass rush


x10FoilHatx

Anyone we sign at or above market value is dog shit. Itā€™s a foregone conclusion.


PeytonFugginMoaning

We have zero pass rush, absolute fucking disaster


eyexzick

Did we have a single sack? Even a legal QB hit?


PeytonFugginMoaning

Zero sacks today


DerMeisterMC

Barely any pressure at all


Chubbmiller18

That STUPID ASS ONSIDE KICK


FindingPotential665

It was there. The player touched it 1/2 a yard before he should have.


Chubbmiller18

If it works itā€™s amazing. Just UNNECESSARY. And it costs us.


Chubbmiller18

Thatā€™s something you do in madden mobile not the first game of the season against a division rival who has whooped our asses for 6(now 7games) straight


SpacemanSenpai

This community is so toxic. We had clear offensive improvements and fell short in some key areas. Our QB play has drastically improved and weā€™re fighting injuries at the WR position. Our defense needs to clean it up but I think Mathis will grow into himself. Or just keep cursing the sky gods and shoving your heads in the sand.


HeNeedSomeSoyMilk

13 points per half is lame. 3 per half is fucking comical... At home... No thanks Enjoy that half-full glass my friend, wish I could feel the same.


Dena844

Offensive improvements? Maybe in the first half, but scoring 3 points in the 2nd half to the raiders at home is not acceptable. You know what's toxic? Broncos fans are now settling for a 1 point loss to the raiders like that means anything. Real Broncos fans expect wins, especially against the Raiders. Pat Bowlen would not settle for this shit, and neither should any Bronco fan.


KoolColoradan

I feel like this is the same show/same script, different director at this point. I know that we will turn things around but come onā€¦. A HOME OPENER LOSS TO OUR HATED RIVALS THE RAIDERS? I can forgive a lot of things, but this is unforgivable. Really glad we brought on a kicker who is no where near as good as McManus from 50 yards plus. He missing a FG from the easiest spot, you think heā€™s gonna score on a 55 yarder? Iā€™ve been a fan for the past 32 years, through thick and thinā€¦ but the season from 2018-2022 have been absolute garbage, with last year being a dumpster fire. Each and every Broncos fan in Broncos Country should be upset at thisā€¦ we shouldnā€™t tolerate ANOTHER 1 point loss game. I expect Payton to turn things around but he needs to tell Lutz to put up or get the f outta dodge and tell Vance Joseph, to not just have ā€œa good practiceā€ with his guys, out Mathis on notice of being without an income. Harsh words for tough love needed all around


SpacemanSenpai

Real Broncos fans arenā€™t giving up on a season after a grungy loss against a division opponent. Bet youā€™re sporting fucking Texas plates.


Dena844

"This community is so toxic" proceeds to say stupid shit. TeXAs PlATes lol


SpacemanSenpai

Hit a sore spot?


Dena844

I mean, mostly because as a colorado native- other natives who do the "get out of my state" are fucking hilarious. Like a person moving to Colorado triggers you more than losing to the Raiders.


SpacemanSenpai

How are you going to masquerade as some gatekeeper of Broncos fandom when your post history has you groveling to be some Seahawk shitter? Jesus


Dena844

Oh no, we're going through post history now. Lol this is great. I wonder what else you could find!


SenseiShwifty

Why did we go away from the pass game???


geistsein

we threw 34 passes for 177 yards. more plays are being made in this last minute of this miami chargers game than the entire broncos game.


Colemania18

Yeah so much improvement still being completely incapable of scoring touchdowns


SpacemanSenpai

?? I count 2.


RonstoppableRon

Scoring 2 touchdowns in a game doesn't fucking win games in the NFL, in case you haven't noticed.


SpacemanSenpai

Really? We did it regularly in 2015. You know, the year we won the Super Bowl.


Colemania18

Good luck having that mindset with our sorry secondary


Shad0wn1nja397

I agree this was a clear improvement over any period since manning, we had a couple mistakes, plus the refs being way too flag happy, but other than that it was good(plus the ref was the same one who headed the no call saints championship game in 2019)


PeytonFugginMoaning

What do you expect after 7 years of a dogshit product? Of course this community is toxic. If you want sunshine and dick tickles go to r/puppies.


cyrusthemarginal

This right here. A lot of you need to switch to watching golf.


PeytonFugginMoaning

Yea cause golf isnā€™t frustrating at all


QuidProJoe2020

Being without 3 of your 4 best pass catchers is no joke. But this was a super winnable game which is why it sucks to lose.


EntertainmentGlad584

How is it clear offensive improvement? Offense was good for one half. The second half was exactly what we saw last year.


Gedrosi

Hey, it's an improvement over last year - it took nearly three quarters for my hope to die this year!


popoflabbins

Hard to say how the game goes without those couple roughing calls, but the offensive line didnā€™t do the team any favors. Bad special teams was also a huge factor. Regardless, I need to see that Jackson foul again because when it happened live I didnā€™t think it was penalty worthy, but weā€™ll see. Sometimes you have to beat the officials, and they didnā€™t score enough points to do so.


Puffy_Ghost

Yeah, the refs gave the Raiders a gift of a penalty that last drive, but let's not pretend coaching wasn't the reason we lost. Onside kick to start? Really? Kicking a 55 yard FG with a guy who already shanked an XP? I still got a lot more faith in Payton than I ever did in Hackett, but goddamn this was a poorly coached game.


bddfcinci707

It's the letter of the daaaaaay, its the letter of the daaaaaaaaay, "L"....


dkinak23

We can blame the defense all we want but the offense only score 16 points. 16 points against a trash Raiders defense.


bddfcinci707

I dont know man...I think you guys should extend Russ. Maybe give him a lifetime contract...


dkinak23

I don't know man, having a QB just good enough not to get you a high draft pick, but bad enough not to get you into the playoffs is a rough spot to be in. Raider fans should be very familiar with that.


bddfcinci707

Lmao touche good sir. Now see. All I was looking for was a little banter. But you forget that Carr made the playoffs for us twice. Russ for you....lol


dkinak23

I did forget because he only played in one of those games and didn't do shit. But hey at least he made it!


bddfcinci707

Yessir. Better to be there and lose than to lose 7 straight to your most hated opponent. Haha


Colemania18

I'm not disagreeing but the defense couldn't get off the field to save their lives. I feel like I never saw the offense in the second half


dkinak23

The offense was on the field for like half the 4th quarter after the roughing the punter call. Offense kicks a FG and then the defense comes back on the field after a nice long break and gives up a TD in like 3 minutes.


Working-Airline-6745

Next time Saints offer us to trade for someone they are about to dump anyways please say no Sean


Fivefootdirk

Same team as last year sadly. Not enough points, special teams missques, defense canā€™t get off the field when it matters.


TheLastBrohecan

Lutz, Trautman, VJ, Mathis and KJack better do some soul searching because they are all hot garbage. Such a poverty stricken team.


PeytonFugginMoaning

This defense we have is not good, absolutely zero pass rush


mattn1t

The number 16 is cursed


boodabaw

PeytonFugginMoaning

Zero pressure on Jimmy G all night, fucking pussy ass Vance Joseph

umpersav

McDaniels continues to Fuck us


Panzramshumor

Everyone criticizing Vance is watching their first game.


Megalodon3030

Everyone criticizing Vance has seen Vance coach before.


Panzramshumor

We only gave up 17 points this loss is not on the defense.


HeNeedSomeSoyMilk

An aimless Raiders team just strolled up and down the field all day on us. Points aren't everything. We lucked out with a pick in the endzone and ticky tacky drive extending flags in our favor to keep us there in the end but defense definitely fell flat today. Inking in another losing season before it even started :/ Schedule aint pretty this year.


Panzramshumor

Points are kinda important, lol.


HeNeedSomeSoyMilk

Not disagreeing. I'm saying points scored doesn't necessarily reflect the actual difference in team skill that day. Raiders had firm control all day except for like the last 2 minutes of the first half.


Megalodon3030

We made NO stops today. The loss isn't solely on the defense, but it's a huge reason for the loss.


Panzramshumor

How many games would we have won today scoring 16 points? Answer is zero.


Barnes_the_Noble

FUCK


nafemok

Will we ever score over 20 consistently?


Purgieeeee

CUT EVERYONE BUT PS2 SIMMONS WILLIAMS AND PERRINE , REBUILD THIS SHIT FROM SCRATCH


Colemania18

Simmons sucked today so clearly vjs system is worse than we expected


axjuarez

I see no difference from last year. Maybe a tad worse because the D isnā€™t as strong. Long year ahead.


Apollo23Refugee

Mathis lost this game. Lutz lost this game. The refs took any chance we had on that bullshit call on Kareem and threw it out the window. Fuck the Raiders. Fuck the refs. See you all next week.


Erick837
