0:00 - A win is a win is a win, but man...The Broncos looked UGLY yesterday in London. They almost lost to a New York Jets team that had -10 passing yards. NEGATIVE. NET. PASSING. YARDS. And yet, the Jets could've won it with a walkoff FG. This is the angriest we've been about a win in a long time. 16:59 - Bo Nix was wheelin' and dealin' in the first half yesterday, then Sean Payton completely abandoned the passing game in the 2nd half. What was that, Sean? Now, I know we've been clamoring for the Broncos to run the ball more...but it ultimately comes down to the flow. Go with the flow. If the pass game is working, call pass plays! If the pass isn't working, call run plays! Don't overthink this, Sean. 36:32 - Death, taxes, and the Colorado Avalanche losing to the Dallas Stars. Saturday was no exception. And of COURSE Mikko looked good in the game, as well. Jared Bednar had a great zinger about the Stars in his postgame presser, and MacKinnon wasn't happy with the home fans booing.
