And how about that, you are the biggest troll in this thread right now.

:confused:

I'm just saying the Broncos are winning all sorts of games that no one expects them to win. I want to see if they're really that good or if they start to fall apart later in the season. I hope they do well; I like Colorado even though I'm not from there.

At the same time, I want to see how well my home team Vikings do against some good opponents. We've got Baltimore and Pittsburgh coming up so we'll see if they can live up to the hype.

I hope your Vikings do good too, plus I want to see the Bears fall :D

My bad I thought you were hammering the Bronco's cause you didn't like em ;)

I am headed to a meeting with my boss in a about an hour. He is a huge Steelers fan. We already have a lunch bet on best record for the season. Now I need to remind him that the Broncos play the Steelers in about 3 weeks.

He was....then he got called out and tried to save face. Vikings are bigger trolls, they havent beat anybody yet and are one old man injury away from Tavaris Jackson and we all know how that works out.

We took the circuits outta those Bolts, now didn't we? :)

I thought our defense was worked more than the other teams, but it's good that we got challenged. Besides, we owned the second half. 3 points allowed. Sacks galore. Too many hurries to count. What a flurry we were! Blitzes, stunts, everything was on fire in the second half.

Gotta admit, these Broncos are looking goooooooooooood. 1 of 4 left. But it ain't about the records, it's about who ends up with 3 playoff wins.

Doubters are welcome. :)

The only thing I'd doubt about the Broncos right now is their ability to win games when they absolutely NEED Orton to do it for them. Maybe it's just me thinking "wow, that's Kyle Orton out there," but it would be hard to put faith in him in big moments.

That being said, the Broncos have proven their legit. McDaniels really has done a heck of a job out there.

It was nice to win but I agree, Orton didn't look great. It was the special teams that won the game.

We beat them last year, the first game of the series. 39-38. Cutler's obvious fumble that was ruled an incomplete pass. The Ed Hochuli Rule.

:confused:

That's right I forgot about that 2 point conversion. Other then that though Rivers seems to have pounded us the last few years.

5-1 against the Broncos until this game.

Man, do I love seeing Cry Me A Rivers lose. :D

he threw the pass he needed to at the end. The mark of a good team is the ability to win even when the QB is not perfect.

WTF?

Yeah, this makes no sense. The whole Denver Broncos team makes no sense. They have no defense for like 5 years, they get rid of their star QB (who i never liked btw) for Kyle Orton and now they're an elite team on both ends of the ball. WTF INDEED. McDaniels ftw? I guess they got like a whole new defense, too. Does Elvis Dumervil seriously have 10 sacks already this season?

Yeah, i'll be the first to admit that I thought the Denver organization was retarded for firing Shanahan. Then I thought that McDaniels was even dumber for driving his star QB away. Then with the Marshall fiasco at the beginning of the season, I thought for sure they were going to be near the bottom of the pack with Detroit and St. Louis.

Color me surprised...
