We had NO book on Denver without Elway at the helm lol.

Yeah they emptied their bag of tricks that day (rotating QBs, flea-flickers, WR passes) and almost pulled off the upset.

We have not beat the Broncos since 95,since 92 at home and Dak has never beaten the Broncos

I don’t see any of that changing today!

33-38 Broncos

 

[English Cowboy]

We have the better offense. They have the better defense. We are 1-3 on the road. They're unbeaten at home. However, if we can somehow fluke a takeaway or two I fancy us to edge it...

By the way, what do we think Aubrey's range is in the thin Denver air? Got to be 70+ surely.

Yep, been thinking the same thing. He says he thinks he can hit from 70 at AT&T, so he could def do it there in Denver.

If we lose I am holding you responsible. I might sentence you to a week of listening to Zoners or something.

You'll learn your lesson then.

They beat the Jets by 2pts and the Giants by 1 the last two weeks. They had to score 18 pts in the 4th qtr v Philly to win, they had to score 33 in the 4th qtr last week to win.

They can definitely be beaten.

Looks like the IR decision had nothing to do with the concussion issue.

Hurt before he even gets on the field...

We'll be in field goal range with a touchback...

They skipped Rush for a third stringer

Always thought that signing Rush was an odd move by the Ravens. Completely different style of QB to LJ that requires a complete overhaul of their whole offensive philosophy and playbook.

This spoke to Jimmy during the Soup Bow when Jim Kelly went out. They had to change their entire thought process without Jim in there and with Frank Reich, who had shredded Jimmy's Hurricane team when he was at Maryland. Jim was more of a gambler and gunslinger, Frank much more controlled and surgical. Had recently done the same thing to Houston too so at least there was film. Small adjustments started coming immediately, big ones later. The crossing route was killing us with Reich at the controls, among other things.

When you have a Unicorn at QB it sort of limits your options at backup. It used to be chronically this way when your QB1 was left handed.

They have the better defense

But... They haven't faced an offense even approaching ours. Might be misleading stat.
