Given the way we played this half, current result is fantastic.
 
Their punter is playing much better.

Overall, McDaniels needs to step up.
 
I think this half all comes down to who makes a critical turnover first.
 
Rough outing so far for Drake Maye:

Total: 7/14 (50%) 41yds

By Down:
1st: 3/4 (75%) 10yds
2nd: 1/5 (20%) 5yds
3rd: *3/5 (60%) 26yds
*1 passing first down

Throw-by-throw:

I really like our fight back. We tied the game up and we will have the ball first out of half time.

It's a game of adjustments. Crucial halftime adjustments needed. In particular We need our offense to get into gear and start scoring.

It looks like our defense is already finding ways to shut down Stidham. We are so in this game.

Just 30 minutes to go and we need to see more of that killer instinct going forward. Let's get it!
 
I give Denver all the credit in the world but I definitely need to stop overrating our offense. In my defense I only said they would get 16......like damn.
 
Need to score on that 1st drive in the 2nd half and force Denver to play from behind and become 1 dimensional.

Need to out Stidham under pressure
 
Maye has been bad with his decision making but Will Campbell has been a traffic cone. He needs more help.
Most of us have been saying that for the past three weeks… And they still aren’t giving him help…
 
Maye needs to take the intermediate short passes. That's an area he needs to improve..


We can't always aim to get the long deep passes.
 
Our offense is making no sense to me. Outside of Surtain, they don't seem to be doing anything over the top. What is clear to me is that Maye is NOT a cold weather qb.
 
Wind maybe carried it? Denver’s kicker is pretty reliable and couldn’t get his going straight from 54.
Borreagales was off to his left iirc and Denver’s kicker hooked to the right. So both went to same side of the stadium.
 
I thought the thin atmosphere would make punting travel longer, yet our punts are so bad today
Thin air is affecting his drop and throwing his timing off?...
 
I just got off from work and saw the fumble by Stidham, which should’ve been a return TD (not surprising by the refs bailing out Denver).

Who gets the ball to start the 2nd half?
 
Hard to say which team should be happy/sad with how the first half went
Denver should be up by like two TD's right now. But they will win if the offense can't get it together. Defense is going to be gassed.
 
Ugly game so far.LT needs to be moved to G position. RT sucks as well.
Offense is atrocious.

2nd: 1/5 (20%) 5yds
3rd: *3/5 (60%) 26yds

Throw-by-throw:
The 2nd down number is killing them. Have to start getting some success going there.
 
We need to pull away somehow. Denver has one 11 games this year in games decided by 8 points of fewer..
