**Official New England @ Denver Broncos Post-Game Thread**

DT was non existent besides a TD catch and that lucky tipped ball. Much credit to Gilmore.

Gilmore made the TD catch competitive.
If Gilmore and Butler make coverage competitive, while good WRs like DT will still make some plays, the defense should ultimately be stingy.

Feels good to smash the donkeys in front of their fans (though admittedly, my dislike for the Broncos decreased when TJ Ward was released).

Early on it felt as if the Patriots were playing the Browns, not the Broncos.

There was a semi-resemblance in uniform color as well.

As the game progressed Denver did nothing other than a few completions to a former-Steeler/almost-Patriot WR to dispel that thought.

After so many losses in Colorado over the years, it felt really good to see the Pats not only win there - but to win easily.

Can you show me where?

Ive watched every game between the pats and donkeys since 1974. Most of the time the pats lost, and if they did win it was a hard faught game. Tonight was the first time i ever saw the pats whip the donkeys like a rented mule. It was nice to see after 40+plus years.

Your right, my bad.

Purely an attempt at reverse jinx!

Lol. It worked.

Btw: Thanks for taking that as a joke.

I mean, our aircraft didn’t really do a ton in the game, but our jeeps and tanks kind of rolled right over them most of the game.

Don't overlook the job of the infantry out in the trenches.

No surprise that there is a lot of finger pointing after Sunday night's game.

Love it.

Haha:

Paid $200 to eat shyt? I'd pay twice that to watch her walk into rush hour traffic with her cell phone glued to her ear...vapid, vacuous, no hope dope looking for a rope.

 

[Froob]

A+++++ work

 

[AtomicDawg]

Yep.

 

[Ring 6]

so...does anyone else think we went back to the offensive passing game that we've employed over last couple of years instead of the long 7 step drop of 1st half of this season?

meaning, we played the "quick throws" 3 step drops quick pass game, rather than the long developing routes game

it explains also why Oline seemed so much better

I think they've finally figured out our reg quick passing attack, w/o Edelman...in essence the TEs and RBs play the role of catchers in middle of field, and WRs are just outside the numbers

Same offense

Meanwhile: This OP must of been on drugs

Broncos will upset Pats 21-14

A beauty. So seamless @Mile High. A gift.


Now for a mile higher!

Not meaning to nitpick your post, but I’ve seen this idea that Mexico City is 2x as high in several different threads lately. It’s simply not true.

Denver is approx 5,300 feet.
Mexico City is approx. 7,300 feet.

Good that they’re staying out West in order to acclimate themselves, of course.

 

[reflexblue]

Your right, my bad.

He altered the post, i DID say in denver.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Have one question...where was Von Miller? Oh I know.....



Nice job LaAdrian Waddle!

In case anybody forgot, yes, the Pats have had issues when they play in Denver.

People need to stop worrying about Pitt. This will be put to rest on week 15. Not much we can do about it till then. I think they will trip along the way sooner or later but even if they keep pace that game will sort everything out.
