Denver Broncos Get Great News In a SURPRISE Collapse...

Your Denver Broncos just get phenomenal news across the entire NFL and on this stress-free Sunday. A ton of things that we wanted as Broncos fans so that we can get that one seed in the AFC happened and it is great news that we have to talk about. If you're new here to this channel, I'm Ben. I'm a diehard Broncos fan and it helps me in the algorithm out a ton. If you love the Denver Broncos, please smash that like and subscribe button. We know Sean Payton and Jay Glazer are really good friends. It was Jay Glazer who confirmed that Sean Payton was in love with Bo Nix before the draft that Sean Payton wanted to fly out and be knocking on Bo Nix's door when Roger Goodell called the Broncos up and they ultimately picked Bo Nix. Well, Jay Glazer also comes out and kind of affirms something we wondered here in Denver for a long time, and that is that the play calling and the offensive ineptitude we've seen over these past two weeks are a lot due to the fact that Sean Payton, when play calling was handed over to Davis Webb, a bunch of terminology and things changed about it and then Sean Payton took back play calling on the Wednesday of a game week the Broncos go out to LA to play the Chargers on a Sunday so a really short turnaround and Sean Payton tried to flip the terminology back so it reminds you a lot of Michael Scott's vasectomy where it's on and it's off and it's on and it's off and it does get messy when you have situations like that that is ultimately why I didn't want Sean Payton to give up play calling in the very first place because one of the huge advantages the Broncos had going into this season was that 90% of our roster from last season was there. And so lean into that advantage, have everyone on the same page. Don't teach old people, new terminology, like roll with what you got, roll with what you all to the way to the AFC championship game. But I think the glass half full I take on here is that it'll be a lot easier to get guys remembering that old terminology. Uh, and that is something that is very doable on, uh, especially now with this mini bye-week. And so the Broncos survived two weeks of kind of new terminology under the gun. And I'm excited to see what this Broncos team does now after this mini bye and after Sean kind of reflecting as to what has worked against this Denver Broncos team. Other piece of really good news we get here is one of the more plugged insiders in the NFL is Tom Pelissero. It's really him and Adam Schefter. And Pelissero came out and basically shot down exactly what we heard from Ryan Fitzpatrick about Bo Nix not being competitive, not being respectful of the quarterback position, not wanting to win, and basically came out and said inside that Broncos locker room, there is zero question about Bo Nix's competitiveness, his drive, or his ability to get things rolling again. And so really, it's just like the Broncos are not going to bench Bo Nix. You can just take that, like that should go in one ear and out the other ear. And really like this toxic nature that's taken over Broncos country, we got to just ignore that because as we saw with Will Lutz kicking that field goal and shushing the home crowd. The players really do hear our energy and let's not manufacture controversy when there's no controversy there. Nobody is getting rid of Bo Nix. And the craziest part of that entire thing was how much better Bo Nix played in that game than Sam Darnold. And yet it's Bo Nix who's getting lambasted on national TV by Ryan Fitzpatrick when he's making a fraction of what Sam Darnold did and didn't make any of the massive mistakes Sam Darnold's making $33 million per year, and Bo Nix is making a measly $4 million a year and outplayed the Super Bowl champion from last season and did not just cough the ball over all the time. So there's absolutely no questions in Denver in that locker room that Bo Nix is him and he is that guy. And nationally, there's also no question that the Broncos are going to bounce back. So one of the big rumors right now is that the NFL is actually going to be betting on the Denver Broncos and flexing them back into a Sunday night football. We know the Broncos were tied for third place when it comes to the most national TV games, which is really a great sign that the NFL believes we're going to be a great football team and really fun to watch. And I think that LA Rams game proved them right, that the Broncos are going to be competitive. I think even just playing on Thursday night football proved like the Broncos aren't going to be walked over and they came out of that. They're two and three here in primetime games. And it seems as if the Broncos game here against the Carolina Panthers actually might be flexed in over the Chicago Bears. So we saw the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, another team that a lot of folks thought would just walk through and win that division. They're now sitting at one and five and they're scheduled to play the Chicago Bears and nobody wants to watch a, like a one in seven team on Sunday night football. And so there's a real good chance that the Broncos get an additional primetime game. And I like the fact that like that's an 11 a.m. start game going to the East coast for the Broncos, which we've struggled with. I think that's just a huge advantage. Put the spotlight on it. Make this a game the Broncos players themselves can't just look past. So really good news there that the NFL thinks like, hey, we're going to be a pretty stinking good team. other great news we got across the NFL here is the the Baltimore Ravens have been a team I've been scared of that's one of the teams I want nothing to do with in the playoffs and that's a team that I think had a real shot at getting the one seed in the entire AFC because they were cruising getting Lamar Jackson back and this was just phenomenal to see them lose to the the Browns for the first time since 2014 and that just really is going to make them winning out getting that one seed much more difficult and on top of that you're just seeing that this is one of those teams who's kind of the opposite of the broncos the broncos start slow and end strong Broncos like leading the NFL when it comes to fourth quarter comebacks and now you're seeing here uh that that is the seventh double digit comeback that the the um the baltimore ravens have let up the most in the nfl since 2018 so really good news there for the broncos other fantastic news we got is that i was rooting for the tennessee titans because i desperately want Jonathan Taylor to be on the trade block. And so now you're seeing this team that we know has this hovercraft owner who's on the sidelines taking notes. And we know that's just a mess there with the Indianapolis Colts. And had they been winning, had they thought they had a shot at that division, there's no way they move on from Jonathan Taylor. But if you look at their upcoming schedule, they have games against a really good defense in the Vikings, games against the Jaguars where you're going to Jacksonville, not good game against the Cowboys who are still in it so you could look at a world here where the Indianapolis Colts are sitting at two and seven and so the idea of a Jonathan Taylor trade much much bigger on the table here and you're even seeing their own creators come out and say hey all of these players right here are on the table for the Indianapolis Colts to walk away from and so yeah I would be thrilled to death if somehow the Broncos end up with Jonathan Taylor and again it's just a great sign here when you're seeing their own creators are the ones manufacturing this now it's not us kind of wish casting that upon them they're saying like hey you need to fire our GM how that he's built this team is laughable uh and you're seeing their own players kind of just saying i'm tired of this same song and dance time and time again and if the the colts do end up moving on from Ballard that's a great sign that they would maybe do a fire sale and you could go out and get Jonathan Taylor because they don't they need to rebuild this thing from the studs up they got to knock everything down uh the fact that they paid Daniel Jones all that money traded a bunch of picks for Sauce Gardner uh and that that's just great news here for the Broncos fans. Now, Jonathan Taylor or not, the other option truly might just be the fact that this week the Broncos are going to get the guy I'm probably most excited about in the backfield outside RJ Harvey. And that is our boy Jonah Coleman. As we broke down on this channel, he never actually was hurt enough to have to go on the injured reserve. But because of how Sean Payton plays this practice squad roulette game, it works most of the time. But the Broncos were in a position where we were not going to have a long snapper active for a game and if you unless you plan on not punting you need your long snapper and so they had to put Jonah Coleman on the IR even though the initial injury he actually had that injury on the first snap of that game played the rest of the game looks phenomenal in the game so the great news here is that he is going to be active back on the roster this week against the Cardinals and he would have been good to go like a week after that injury we're now four weeks out so I do not expect any lingering problems for him and then an interesting thing here I'd love to hear your comments in the comments down here below. I read them all. Try to respond whenever I have a second with four crazy kids who keep me really, really busy, but I do read them all. So Cam Scarbrough had a fumble in that end of the last game here and it cost the New York Giants a game. And you see a punishment from John Harbaugh as he does not give the rock again to Scarbrough the entire game. And he kind of came out and just said like, hey, I need somebody to step up and I'm trying to find the hot hand in this running back room and nobody is stepping up and wowing me. And I think that is maybe what we saw last week from how Sean Payton gave the ball to JK Dobbins. And that was his chance to wow coach Payton. And I speak for myself here only, but I was not wowed by that performance. And so might we now see, uh, given the rock a bunch to Jonah Coleman this week. And if we don't have anything there, then I really think that's when you start to, uh, pick up the phone and make calls on Tony Pollard, pick up the phone, make calls on Jonathan Taylor. But it's just an interesting thing here. And just seeing Cam Scadaboo come out and be like, yeah, I got punished for how I played last week. Now, I don't like that leadership style. I think ultimately, as we saw with his tenure with the Ravens, that wears thin on players. So I like that Sean Payton does not do this. He does not put dudes in a doghouse. But I do think Sean Payton can borrow this style. Like, hey, feed the dogs and see who eats and see who seems the hungriest. And if not, let's fail fast like you always do. Other good news we got here is while this game didn't go exactly how we wanted to, I did not think the Kansas City Chiefs looked that impressive. We know they're coming off of a bye week here and Andy Reid's supposed to be amazing off of a bye week. And truly, I was not that impressed whatsoever with Patrick Mahomes in this offense. It felt as if the Chargers were constantly giving them phenomenal field position and they just don't look like an unbeatable team. And I just could not believe the double standard here in this game as Bo Nix looked way better against the chargers in the, I watched three quarters of this game. Bo Nix looked way better in those three quarters than Patrick Mahomes looked. And that is a team in the chargers who are actually even more defeated and more like out of this here than they were when they played us. They've given up even more since then. And I thought Bo Nix played better than Patrick Mahomes in this game. And even the Broncos defense, like as, as we look here, Herbert connect a really nice deep pass here. we didn't see any of this kind of stuff happen up against us and uh Lad McConkey did play in this game and um and i our Lad McConkey did not he suited up for this game but he only played one or two snaps and then had a concussion so it's not like the the chiefs had this um you know a tougher chargers team than we did uh so all that's really really great news i think uh and then other the last piece of great news we get is that i watched a bunch of that patriots game because that's another team that folks think uh might win the afc instead of us but i'm telling you it's not going to happen as we see A.J. Brown back into action. And I just think like he's got a toxic nature to him and just like he's that diva mentality who wants to be fed the ball. And he looks like Howie Roseman was correct in moving on from him from the Philadelphia Eagles as he set a record today for number of drops by a New England Patriot receiver in one game. You just see multiple really nicely thrown balls here and and just does not come down with them. So I think all that is really, really good news. The only bad piece of news that we got this entire weekend truly was the seeing this picture of Jonah Ellis on the sideline here of the Utah Colorado game. And he is clearly in, uh, not only a walking boot, but also in crutches, which is what you hear that he left the Broncos locker room in crutches after the Thursday night game. Uh, good news here is that like bye-weeks come in. I think the best news in all of it is that we know that Jonathan Cooper is, is coming back and Q Robinson has really come on with a vengeance. And so of all the positions that you can handle that type of loss. It's this week here, as you know, that Jonathan Cooper is going to be back in action. And I think it's setting us up perfectly here for the Broncos making major moves as we continue to push for the one seed in the AFC. And what's going to happen is y'all get a ton to believe in. And the ball don't lie.
