Apparently in the NFL, they must make sure Denver is at least ok...I really do think that's why they almost always get 3 out of 4 to open the year, a 3-1 start basically at worst keeps them in the race until December even if they suck balls.

And you know damn well that DT did NOT get BOTH feet down. It was NOT as close as you're making it out to be. His foot was clearly on the line. And because you know it, they should have known too. Furthermore, all the talking heads were saying it was clearly out too last night after the fact. Gift # 2. Dang - that's just so impressive! |

Yep. That is exactly the case.

It was 17-10 Denver at the half. Denver controlled the flow of the first half by every measure, the INT that led to the first TD for SEA was such a short field. Overall, SEA had 11 drives that ended in a punt, turnover, missed FG or end of half. Leaving the 4 scoring drives. DEN had 9 drives that ended in a punt, turnover. And, they had 5 scoring drives. Fairly equal from a "what they did with their drives" perspective. Denver killed them with 1st downs - I think SEA converted once, a TD. And, Denver won the sack battle, 6-1. That TD to DT that is in question was on 1st and goal at the 4... I'm pretty confident that had they called that a non-TD, Denver would have found the endzone on the next 2-3 plays with the way they were moving the ball. So, I wouldn't lose too much sleep screaming foul there. It wasn't a glorious display overall by any means, but it's what you might expect from two teams looking to find their way as they redefine themselves at a few spots. |

And, I addressed 'gift 2' and said at the time I didn't think he got both in. |

Just remember something even by your own admission you are saying you are similar to Seattle a team that is probably going to draft in the top 5...at best top 10.
Yet the Broncos are a team that the vast majority of that fan base seems to think is a good team, how does that make any sense? |

SEA was a 9 win team last year, DEN was a 5 win team. Both are rebuilding.. and who says SEA is a top 5 drafting team? Consensus of fans? There's 15 weeks left in the season. Right now, I don't think it says too much negatively about either team to say going into week 1, they were similar. |

How is Denver rebuilding exactly? What holes does Denver have on their roster? I understand questioning Vance Joseph and Case Keenum, but there is no way you can definitively say either is terrible at this moment.

2018 NFL predictions: USA Today has Seahawks finishing with worst record in NFC
Seattle Seahawks (4-12): Ex-LOBer Richard Sherman nailed it when he said, “They’ve lost their way.” Russell Wilson could generate 100% of the offense this year, and it won’t be enough for a roster that’s crumbling around him. https://www.fieldgulls.com/2018/7/20...rst-record-nfc |

Point is with replay - both were obvious. The NFL has replay for such occasions. Gift #1 was just dumb because Caroll didn't challenge in time. That's on him... But Gift # 2 was reviewed, and in typical Denver- getting -a -gift -at -home- fashion, was ignored. In fact, it was first ruled CORRECTLY as OUT, but changed! I believe the exact words uttered were,"After conference, the ruling on the field is a Touchdown." ![]() ![]() And so, we all should be impressed because , Denver gets their "7th Home Opening "win" in a row" (Just happens they have opened at home for 7 straight years). Business as usual... ![]() |

Old man Brandon Marshall, Tyler Lockett and some Dissly guy I’ve never heard of. And you’re lucky it wasn’t 4 TD’s bc that Marshall pass interference in the end zone was a BS call. Pac-Man got smoked |

Can’t wait to see what Keenum does against the Chargers.
Derwin James impressed the hell out of me yesterday. He looks damn good. I’d definitely be worried about your INT-prone QB against a player like James if I were you, Donk fans |
