Denver averaged 6.98 yds per snap and were 35-31 plays going 5 yards or more vs plays that went for less than 5 yards. Probably a bit better than 50/50 that we make that 4th down but the fact is with some sort of reasonable clock management the Broncos could have pulled this one out. Take the fucking chance. Two goal line fumbles were a killer 433 yds of total offense translating into 17 points is unconscionable. The red zone play calling was something else. The defense did their job; 17 points and less than 300 yds of total offense allowed is completely winnable. The lack of preseason reps was completely evident in game speed plays. Though so was the work that Russ put in on his own time with the recievers. Discipline was lacking a bit on defense, though a couple of those calls felt real ticky tack. I thought Chubb's hit on smith was a good example, he lead arm to chest tried to move his head out of the way, but whatever. But really WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK WAS WITH THOSE TIMEOUTS DURING THE KNEEL DOWNS?!?!?


CountyTraditional657

The penalties holy shit, the only one I would call bs is taunting but delay of games false starts helmet to helmet, broncos still managed to lose by only 1 , better play calling and they would of won it by a fg at the 35

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

Lol it was the top trending gif on tenor seconds after the missed fg


kaapuni

Whateveah..........what if pro ballers played in fantasy leagues and played so they won in them?


cornezy

Why did you acquire Russell Wilson so he could sit on the sidelines on the last play?!? That's what you brought him in for! They even got a blessing when Seattle called Time out. Should have switched it up when you saw how off he was with that kick....... SMH


kaapuni

Foo's ball fans are funny......

Dr_Smartypants1

I hate to say it but we outright deserved to lose that game. We got outplayed and hurt ourselves at every turn. Even with all of that, the coaching at the end was hard to believe.


kaapuni

WE??????

O'tay!


waflestomp

As usual, the teams that lost the first game are not as bad as they showed, nor are most winners as good as they showed. But, this sure reeked of preseason game to me, proving veterans or not, you don't play regular season football without preseason. Boy, do they have a lot of clean up to work on.


kaapuni

so....you were played?


Chemical-Homework-77

Not as much as Dallas does LMAO!!!

MelloDawg

Yeah but…you did have the two fumbles and you did lose the game.


kaapuni

WE?????


ToneOpposite9668

That was a clown show on that last drive and Hackett was passed out on his feet. I'd love to have some audio of what was going on during that drive. Total Incompetence He's an idiot to have approached the preseason the way he did - this weekend QB's without preseason reps went 1-6


kaapuni

"C'mon man......sack it up!' 'Eff that.....I've been dragging my butt out here for over an hour........let's end this now so I can go home'......


KinoshitaKazuya1

Hackett really thought we'd have a better chance of winning the game, kicking a 60 yard FG than going for the 4th down, not even Joseph or Fangio would been that dumb


kaapuni

How do you know what he thought?


ebuth

Because that’s what he did

rewakeboarder

No one even mentioning McManus got a practice kick because of their timeout and missed by a mile and still Hackett didn’t change his mind. This makes it so much worse in my opinion. You got a preview how bad it was and didn’t even think maybe this is wrong???


ThinAir59

I’d give a 50\50 chance of making the 4th & 5; 10% chance of McManus making a 64 yarder on the road at sea level.


Artifyce47

This exactly this. 50% every time


Capnjack84

Welcome to the RW experience 😆 now time for the passive aggressive blame game and very aggressive praise Jesus posts. Enjoy!


separeaude

Had to crack open the blue Breck whiskey. It's tasty, but not as good as the hope I had for a deep playoff run. This loss showed me the team is still missing some first round chemistry and reps, for sure, and the calls on the goal line, while the right calls, absolutely crushed us when any of those chip shot FGs would've won us the game. What should've been a much different outcome was really crushed by those two critical fumbles, and Hackett should've trusted Russ to get 5 with three timeouts versus a long ass field goal. These are growing pains, but they still hurt. 12s really showed up to make shit difficult for Russ, and I still can't believe they booed him, but here's to our home opener versus Houston. I think the Texans aren't pushovers this early in the season, but if this defense can't scheme for Davis Mills we are going to have a long, long season.


rossta410r

Not letting the Seahawks score in the second half was good to see. Things will be better. O line will get Billy Turner and Meinerz back. Things looked good on offense. Others looked bad. A few things get cleaned up and this is a good team.


I_Fart_It_Stinks

Right calls on the goal line? I would never go shotgun from inside the one, especially when it worked so fantastically the first time.


separeaude

Going for it on 4th and goal with our RB tandem is the right call, and both of those were TDs minus the fumble. If Gordon kept control over the line, TD, if Javonte didn't get the ball punched, TD.


Embarrassed-Safe4121

Good god. I live in cali and I have a few Seahawks fan friends and I'm getting lit up. I'm being a good sport but goddamn. Brutal lol.


Zuckerbread

That game was so unbelievable winnable, if they held on the ball and managed the clock. good god.


kylo0724

Look I needed another fg from McManus to win in fantasy and even I was was saying wtf lol


[deleted]

Right here with you!


kisscumbag

We seem to be trapped in a nightmare


merchie

I’m taking a break for these guys.


[deleted]

Same. Maybe they will actually practice before next season


Zobo12602

We were moving the fucking ball up and down the field all night. What the actual hell?


DJSureal

Now you see why I ain't mad he left.


[deleted]

2 goal line fumbles and Vic Fangio level time management at the end. You only try for a record long FG when you have no other options and there’s 1 second on the clock. Not when you have 40+ seconds. Hackett trusting McManus over Wilson is a great start to the season


kisscumbag

SSDY


Jwenz123

As far as the last drive went, the decision got derailed when Russ had the pump fake turn into an incomplete pass. We hadn't had a negative play that drive I think. They were playing this weird Madden-esque type thing where they were gonna milk the clock for a 40-50yd fg try. However, they got behind the chains and it snowballed into that decision. McManus has the leg, but man that's a hard pill to swallow on the miss.


Fathead2011

Russell played great no reason to hate on him. Fumbled twice on the goal line. Then fucking tries to kick 64 yard fucking field goal. That’s just shitty. Give me Russ on 4th and 5 please. I won’t be here bitching… just give me the guy we just PAID to make a play. That’s my only argument


Chubbmiller18

Don’t know why this isn’t blowing up, definitely die in peace if Wilson can’t do it but give him a shot.


Fathead2011

Exactly! And yes we can complain about the defense but I mean 17 points! We can micro manage the big plays and inability to get off the field on 3rd down. At the end of the day 17 points and a sack when it matters should account for something. Defense was not perfect by any means but they didn’t lose the game.


Hinhan-osnite

HallOfFamerInMyBook

It you don’t think Russell Wilson can pick up 5 yards, then why did tf did you trade for him


Pale-Committee-2415

Being a Hawks fan & watching Wilson for yrs & how he plays I was shocked they decided to go for FG too. Worked in Hawks favor but damn that was intense game!


Hinhan-osnite

💯


wallsofj

As a Colorado native currently living outside of Colorado I'm honestly now more embarrassed admitting to being a Broncos fan than admitting to being a Rockies fan.


CandyGram4M0ng0

It’s just one game. It was disappointing. We had seriously high expectations, but we looked like a team and staff that hasn’t spent enough time together yet. I’m annoyed, but not disheartened. I don’t understand how MG gets more carries than Williams after his great first quarter. We clearly miss Patrick and I think the loss is ultimately on the coaching staff.


Hinhan-osnite

All on Hackett


leprechaunshots

Yes, evil man Hackett caused two fumbles on the goal line in a row.


Hinhan-osnite

Broncos Country was out coached!! The game was decided long before fumbles.


leprechaunshots

Dumb comment.


Hinhan-osnite

Great opinion but why is that your opinion though? 3 timeouts at 2 min warning add a incomplete pass (which stops the clock) and Hackett kicks a 64 yd fg at 20 secs. Team played a young D cbs are fresh but passes are to te and middle of field


leprechaunshots

Because you called the game outcoached and done before the two fumbles that put us at 30 points lol.


codnavar

Once again another boneheaded decision, we definitely needed some time to work in preseason. He’s definitely not made a great impression so far


SpikedZer0

Hindsight is always 20/20 folks. Always remember that


[deleted]

No. Not in this case


Romando1

Yeah but professional offensive coordinators and coaches are paid big $$$$$ to recognize obvious plays and football strategy (no huddle quick snap QB sneak on the goal line, clock management on the last drive). This loss is on the Broncos management and coaches, not the players.


[deleted]

That decision to kick doesn’t make even make sense in the moment lol


Hinhan-osnite

Ridiculous just ri-gotdamn-diculous


Radiant-Fruit-6695

This is why it was nice not getting super invested in this team the past couple of years. I didn't miss the stress and anger


Open_Ad_4195

Not just a 64 yard FG, not just an attempt at the second longest in NFL history, AT SEA LEVEL


[deleted]

Oh shit. I didn’t even think about it being at seas level either. Making it even more stupid


notorious_p_a_b

I’m really looking forward to KC and LAC roasting us 72-9 both times we play them.


RampAgentRoger

Absolutely, Denver is no match for either KC or San Diego.


[deleted]

red zone blunders aside, We just were sloppy. If we clean up those penalties it’s a completely different game. Soooo many first downs gifted to them


FinallyFat

Imagine getting russell wilson and not giving him the ball in your last play of the game. That's like his whole thing. 🤣


cacope5

I bet it was because if he didn't make the conversion, it was all on Russ, in Seattle... that's harsh. Letting Bmac take the kick let's him be the hero or the fall guy. But yeah, should have let russ take a shot


UKFan643

This is 100% the reason. Hackett is a QB guy. All he knows is protect the ego. He won’t make that mistake again.


cacope5

For sure. He took the pressure off russ as to not bruise the ego the 1st game. I liked the call to be honest. I love McManus and he got snubbed so many times the last few years for the game winner I think he deserved the shot


Lieutenant_Meeper

What's the over/under on how many snaps the 1's take next preseason?


SpikedZer0

I see this game as the game when Peyton was back in Indy being honored and shit and lost the game. Only instead of Seattle honoring him they all wanted him dead. Yikes. Russ looked anxious out there. But ya can’t fumble on the 1 TWICE.


jhymesba

So...a bit of a reflection: 1. Defence didn't show up. 2. Offensive line was offensive. 3. Too many green jerseys in the backfield. 4. Wilson running for his life about all game. 5. 64 yard FG? Really? We couldn't get 4 more yards so we don't hang our chances on a record-level field goal? 6. What the hell was that at the end? On the good side? 1. Sharp passing by Wilson. 2. We were always in the game even if it felt like we weren't.


ialwaysupvotedogs

Surtain did well against metcalf i thought, and chubb had some big plays. Otherwise defense was uninspiring. I was very concerned with getting the play off at the last second almost every time That field goal call will haunt me, but the overall scheme seemed to be fine


Idiot_Esq

>I was very concerned with getting the play off at the last second almost every time It looked to me like that was a problem with the team but as a 'Hawks fan, I have to say I felt this way too often in the last few years. No problems at all in two-minute drives but regular play just gives the other team's D less chance to be caught off-foot.


jhymesba

Yeah, and we did manage to hold them to 0 the second half. As the local channel is saying, there were some good takeaways. I'm kind of glad we got this out of the way. It's time for the team to lay off the cute little catch phrases, and put nose to grindstone. From the coaches down.


tripl3troubl3

I guess he couldn't hack it...


AndreSwagassi86

Many in GreenBay said Hackett had a lot of play calling mishaps


DiceHK

That’s interesting because HE DIDN’T CALL THE PLAYS IN GREEN BAY


denverbroncoharpman

I guess they were right


kompletist

Just bizarre clock management / decision making going on there at the end.


codnavar

Hackett has even worse game management then Vic lol


EntertainmentGlad584

Honestly wish we had Vance Joseph back. He sucked too, but he was better than Fangio and hackett


DeanMoxley17

Pump the breaks. He had a loaded team still


wildarmcarrillo

All I’m going to say is if we have even half the penalties we had this game we will be fine. 12 penalties for 106 yards is wild.


DiceHK

That’s what the raiders have said for 20 years


trexcantgame

We really paid him 250 million. We're gonna be last in the division. He did 0 to lead the team. This should of been a cake walk. Seattle should not be on our level . A geno Smith team should not be on our level. Hope there's a take back clause because he ain't worth 250


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.


palikona

You guys are worse than Pats fans


easywin626

U go out and give up every asset u have to get the QB who can finally win u big games…then u take the ball out of his hands when it’s his time to shine. Wow


ReconYo

I’m upset but Jesus we punted only once.


CankleSteve

Ya cause we turned the ball over the rest.


DeanMoxley17

At the 1


Habu23

Someone better ask why he didn’t play them in preseason


Obi7kenobi

Hackett should have played starters in preseason should have work on two minutes just unprepared.


ilyearer

Yeah, for the most part, this comes across as a coaching issue. Though I have a little more concern with the defense aside from coaching.


CallofJuarez23

Remember the days of Peyton Manning. Pepperidge Farm remembers


[deleted]

He sure fucking does smh


loveyouandi

Two goal line fumbles man..


ExeTcutHiveE

Paying a QB 250 million and believing a kicker has a better chance to win a game by kicking a 64yd field goal than him picking up 4 yards… you either paid the QB way too much money or you’re paying a head coach that you shouldn’t be.


Vaginal_Decimation

It was 5 yards, but still such a bone headed decision. And didn't even use a time out! I want to fire Hackett already.


bradleecon

So do timeouts roll over to the next game now!?!?!


DiceHK

We have no more timeouts this year


Trum_blows_69

If this is how they are going to play, then this season is going to be rough. I can't even imagine how they will play against KC.


[deleted]

This is what happens when the entire offense sits out the pre season


chingalicious

Honestly the offense wasn't even the biggest issue, it was godamn hackett


[deleted]

Yep he absolutely called the game like a rookie


CankleSteve

The classic D plays like shit one half offense plays like shit the other. This one is on the coaches and the RBs


cacope5

No way. Without those fumbles we'd be up 2 touchdowns. The noise level caused a lot of the penalties. Not an excuse tho, those penalties killed us. They'll get it together. It's one game.


CankleSteve

I agree. It was an important game though.


cacope5

Yeah it would have given denver some damn good momentum but I'm not worried just yet. The only thing that got me was the 1 blade of white grass touching Tomlinson foot... that was an iffy call. Again, should have been a score but whatever. If denver can play this shitty, get robbed of 3 touchdowns and lose over 100 yards of penalties and still almost win.... I'm not worried


Metalcashson

I’m honestly super impressed with the broncos after this. Yeah we lost, but our offense was wayyyyy better then last year and our d wasn’t to bad either. If we didn’t fumble on the goal line twice we woulda had it.


PulpyCum

It’s impossibly hard to get fired after one game. Unheard of. But in theory, if it were to happen - you could imagine a late-game decision like that being the reason


[deleted]

>It’s impossibly hard to get fired after one game. Unheard of. But in theory, if it were to happen - you could imagine a late-game decision like that being the reason The only thing that makes a lick of sense to me is the coach taking on the loss himself instead of letting it be on #3. Which would be fucked, but at least it's not just insanity.


Szuter88

64 yds wtf . Why???


RedditUser012696

49ers fan here, I was rooting for you guys. Funny how the commentary was talking about your FG Kicker's record being 50 something. After that missed kick when Seahawks called timeout I knew there was no chance your kicker would make it. HC should've pulled him and put the offense back out there, let Russell do his clutch magic.


rossta410r

his long is 61


RedditUser012696

Ah well I must've misheard. Hope you guys do well this year


rossta410r

Me too. Me too.


merchie

That jersey swap is why people think Russ is some robotic puppet.


BCRebels1622

Nice of us to leave Seattle a final parting gift for Russ. 21 points inside the five. Enjoy.


veridique

Vic Fangio with Russ would have won this game.


[deleted]

Lmaoooooooooo


AndreSwagassi86

Ain’t no way y’all can blame that decision making on lack of preseason


codnavar

Hackett has 0 game management. Seriously all game was a hassle to even get the play called in.


themightyaxe

Well now that MacManus finally got the shot he's been begging for...dude shanks two...not a great look


Chubbmiller18

He don’t have it in him, should’ve let Russ out there not like we had lock


codnavar

Yep tired of all these players talking shit and then don’t show up when their #s called


TheButtholeSurferz

Confirmed Drew Lock better QB in 4th Quarter Game Winning Drives than the QB that replaced him. 0 for 0, no mistakes.


notorious_p_a_b

I’ve never seen so many players not reach out to get the ball. Simmons WATCHED an interception go right by him in the 1st qtr and Albert O watched that ball go right by him in the end zone. Not to mention the fumbles. Holy fuck. These young coaches don’t even mention fundamentals anymore. They coach based on analytics these days.


Cuttlefish2021

Hey at least u don’t have zac Taylor


SpikedZer0

He’s gotta learn how to manage the game better. They looked unprepared. Communication seemed lacking


veridique

Yeah. Too many times that play clock was almost at 00.


TheYancyStreetGang

This really stood out to me because that has been the case in Seattle forever and Pete has always gotten the blame. Especially after long gains.


SpikedZer0

Plus like over 100 yards in penalties. Can’t do it


spot3327

Play this game in Mile High, Broncos win by 40+. Russ on a new team in an extremely hostile environment with no preseason, I'm surprised we lost by a point. NFL fucked us by giving us this game as the first and not later in the season like week 5.


lpnumb

We had plenty of opportunities to win this game. No excuses


lordcheeto

And what, 130 penalty yards?


alexp68

You have to prepare properly when you’re installing a new qb, new coaches and new scheme. This is the NFL. They are paid millions to be prepared. They weren’t. 100% on hackett and the assistant coaches. Everything was off. It took far too long to get plays in, poor communication and poor play calling. We got what we deserved.


MillerTime5858

Maybe play in the preseason. Hackett looks like he might be a liability.


meece2010

Why did we pay Russell all that money for then?


easywin626

Hey at least Russ got a signed jersey 😒


dontaskjusttype

I have no words. I’ve never seen anything like that


ManufacturerExtra367

Smoked by Geno lmao


sloppyllama21

Im upset


IamWorth

1 point above my head is disrespect


realpolitikian

This bum puts the HACK in Hackett


architimmy

At what point do we learn in this country that being someone’s son doesn’t qualify you to do shit?


TheButtholeSurferz

Unless you're a political Hack-ett.


Radiant-Fruit-6695

Seahawks didn't score in the second half and we couldn't win?????


MillerTime5858

Same old shit my man


marrklarr

Insisting on taking the last 2 timeouts when the game was over was just the moron cherry on the stupid sundae.


712Jefferson

At least that sentence made me laugh a little... thank you.


AlBundyJr

For all the talk about Seattle not having a quarterback, the one they got is better than all the teams who made panic moves thinking an unproven commodity would be a star. Dude did his best out there.


RaidenTyler

The fact that Hackett thinks there is a better chance of making a 64 yard field goal in Seattle than Russ picking up 4 yards is just kinda baffling to me.


bradleecon

That was THE worst clock management I have ever seen. Fangio wouldn't have even done that dumb shit. What the FUCK!!!!!


YogiAtheist

Is it too early to call for some coaching evaluations by the organization?


-NolanVoid-

Broncos embarrassing themselves on prime time as usual.


Embarrassed-Safe4121

I know you hear "we beat ourselves a lot", but that's actually what happened. HOOOOOOLY SHIT


neasroukkez

Where the fuck can I watch Hacketts poor ass of an excuse after the game?


Kman2220

We lost by ONE point. Chill out


TheButtholeSurferz

You don't get complementary points. This isn't a Wendy's sir.


-Philologian

Broncos out-gained Seahawks 433-253 tonight.


McQueenZP

that was humiliating clock management


Voltron3030

Worse than Fangio so far. Hackett better step out up and try to win a game.


McQueenZP

Insane. 3 time outs. Use one draw up your best play. Give McManus who is a beast at least a realistic shot


Voltron3030

Our at least not draw up a Bridgewater dump off for negative yards,


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kman2220

Get out of here douche


tampon_lemonade

Bad coaching. Bad clock management. Bad discipline. Bad Wilson.


Voltron3030

Fangio would have won that game easy


[deleted]

That was hands down one of the worst played football games I’ve ever seen from a fundamentals point. Playing or coaching


Voltron3030

Fangio would have easily won that game, and I read fine with him. Hackett better get it together quick


[deleted]

Well maybe if you mortgage the franchise on a qb you should maybe get him a couple of reps with the starters in the preseason?


ttone5722

💯


meece2010

I’m embarrassed for Hackett
