Official Game Day Thread: Week 11 2009 Chargers vs Broncos

[megirb444]

I'm calling an Orton Comeback!!

Our D has to stop Rivers first..which isn't likely at this point.

[Peerless]

"sigh"

Another third down conversion.

[bucking bronco]

Funny how broncos seldom blitz any more..even on obvious passing downs.

[COBronc78]

My god, never seen Goodman run so fast, but still never made the play.

Man Orton seriously does throw like a girl rofl.


Have you seen Rivers throwing motion? Its ten times worse.

[Andyy_47]

Goodman? Bly? Goodman? Bly? Help?

I know lol, it not like Bailey has helped out so far, could bully him too if they felt like it the way we're playing.

[Pruke]

Thank you DJ for making a freakin' play.

[RodSmithRules]

Big stop here guys! Come on!

[Snk16]

Defense is stuffing the run, but cannot stop the pass for crap...:ugh:

[odiesback]

Good tackle

[DBroncos 4 Life]

3rd and long!! COME ON

[Elway]

come on D 3rd and 16

[Spartan82]

Let's hope it isn't too late to help for him to come in, and not too soon after his injury.

I wonder if Orton could have started but McD was hoping all the first team reps would help Simms, and Orton could rest a game…and planned for Orton to come in all along if Simms struggled.?? Hmmm..

[I_Shon]

hopefully the defense and hold them to three and orton can give the whole team a boost.

[HarlemHeat]

Goodman has been horrible for weeks now..he had a huge missed tackle last week in the critical 3rd down vs. Washington..

[Alcaeus15]

Our D has to stop Rivers first..which isn't likely at this point.

Clone Orton and put him in every position and we would WIN


haha

[SPLITTINGBUNS]

Where is Tony Dolt Slayer Scheffler

next to bobbey bolt slayer bushay

[Andyy_47]

Have you seen Rivers throwing motion? Its ten times worse.

Oh crap I meant Rivers, I've got orton in the brain! Gooo Orton!

[IbarHarry]

Tom can come in at the start of the 4th qtr with no penalty to the team. Any QB can return to the game in the 4th qtr if the 3rd qb is used in the 4th qtr. If Tom came in before the start of the 4th qtr no qb could return. You may see Tom in the 4th qtr.

[Incomplete84]

orton is going to go three and out too. Clady is only one man that line needs to step up.

I wager that he drives us for points.

[odiesback]

Good job D...

Hope misses FG

[DBroncos 4 Life]

13-0...........

[Tremendous45th]

so in 1 word how would you describe our 6-0 start to the season?

[SuperCaliBronco]

Now we're in a 13-point hole. :sad:

[Elway]

13 -0 zip - 2 score (td) game still.

[Pruke]

Well - we're only down 2 TD's.

Royal could wipe 1 of those away in a heartbeat.

[bucking bronco]

Would they blitz already.

[RodSmithRules]

Still only a two possession game. We can do this....but only if Simms doesn't go anywhere near the field.

[Elway]

so in 1 word how would you describe our 6-0 start to the season?

fleeting......

[DBroncos 4 Life]

We need SOME points. I hope putting in KO isn't a mistake...

Now to pray to the football gods

[Peerless]

Maybe we can do something exciting on offense.

[Master Supreme]

man we need to score now, or we are in done:go::logo:

[Pruke]

If Orton comes in here and completes a few passes, my level of respect for him will have gone up exponentially.

[assassin216]

we need to score on this drive

[RodSmithRules]

Eddie Royal rules.

[AtwaterHITS27]

Good return Eddie. Gotta get a score here.

[Elway]

Come on KYLE!!!

[odiesback]

Simms is having a ball... but not the game ball

[Roddoliver]

It's now or never

[urKCBroncofan]

come:go: on Orton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Andyy_47]

Good return, but I wish they'd stop saying "EXPLOSIVE EDDIE ROYAL!!!" and stuff.

Orton. Oh mah Gawd.

[Pruke]

Fans are cheering Orton. Love it.

Royal with a good return. Love it.

Let's go Broncos.

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Pray people pray!

[Snk16]

I think this is the first time Orton's been cheered by the Denver fans all year. :laugh:

[DenBroFan22]

Yes! Orton! Let's go!

[Alcaeus15]

Or-ton! Or-ton!

[MFJ]

let's go KO!

[I_Shon]

Lets go orton!

[odiesback]

I have never been so happy to see Orton coming IN

[ChargerFann]

sick catch

[megirb444]

"Are they this desperate to put in Orton?"... Yeh, basically. We have lost 3 in a row and need to win this game to have the slightest chance in this division...

[pitnlala]

This is bs in my opinion. If Orton can play now, he could have started.

[Pruke]

Was it me - or was that a ridiculous catch by Marshall????

[Hoserman117]

Okay, 2 possession game, 13-7 at halftime and we have a shot.

COME ON KYLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tremendous45th]

short pass so a penalty can make said short pass mean nothing.....

thats another of our problems

[Elway]

LOL - more pass yards than Simms!

[mojo0730]

Does this really make any sense to anyone?

Why is it taking 11 weeks to realize Simms can't play? And why on Earth would you put Simms in if you were only going to pull him - FOR THE INJURED GUY HE WAS REPLACING - before halftime?

[Andyy_47]

Ohhhhh lawdy, I can see Marshall have a game of last year's proportions.

[RodSmithRules]

Kyle Orton Army #80 reporting for duty!

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Excellent! I love it!

[megirb444]

Go Marshall!! Haha.. Of course, Orton is our savior..who would have thought? :orton:

[odiesback]

:go::go:

First down... let's go boys

[Martinbronco]

Great throw Orton! Keep it going

[Roddoliver]

OK, why Simms had to start then?

[Snk16]

The protection looks so much better with a righty in. :beer:

[ChargerFann]

looks like we got a game on our hands now

[I_Shon]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MFJ]

Woot! Let's go fellas!

[RodSmithRules]

Yes!! Yes ! Yes!!!

[Andyy_47]

GOOOOO ORTON!!

Ruh roh!! We have a game on our hands!

[Fatfro]

Hell Yes :salute!:

[Hoserman117]

KYYYLLLEEE!!!!!!!

ORTON > SIMMMMMSSSSS

Baaahahahaha

[urKCBroncofan]

Orton looks pissed... he has a look in his eye!!

[Elway]

Gaffney with some great grabs and moves.

[SuperCaliBronco]

Orton is looking really good so far!

[Alcaeus15]

I told you! Orton comeback!

[COBronc78]

I have so much respect for Orton. Hes sparking our offense.

[DenBroFan22]

Orton = Willis Reed!!!

[rbk_bronco]

Now thats a real QB

[Starbroncs]

yea ortons pissed, seriously cut simms.

[Martinbronco]

Let's finish this drive off!

[Pruke]

Orton haters can eat it at this point.

Go cheer for the Bears.

[getlynched47]

I love Kyle Orton.






Screw you Chris Simms, you put this team in a 13-0 hole.

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Ko bee-otch!

[DrunkPanda]

yaaaaaa. welcom back orton

[BroncsSB#3]

Great job by Orton!


Let's get this TD!

[assassin216]

GO ORTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


:orton:

[Incomplete84]

Orton is sling the rock like an ounce on the block lol

[Snk16]

:laugh:

This is awesome. YEAH KYLE!

[odiesback]

Yeaaaahhhhh


Great

[bucking bronco]

Orton!!!! Get it done!!!

[Andyy_47]

He broke the plain! He broke it!!!

[Elway]

FUMBLE - by Moreno?????

[I_Shon]

You gotta be kidding me!!!

[Bellthebest]

o my gosh freakin Moreno

[JimmyJm]

Noooooooooooooooo

[JohnShaft]

so in 1 word how would you describe our 6-0 start to the season?
LUCKY

Or

MIRAGE

Orton in. Great. What a Warrior. C'mon Kyle!

[Alcaeus15]

I hate moreno

[DBroncos 4 Life]

I'm going to cry...

[odiesback]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Spartan82]

Orton orton orton orton orton!!!!!!!
Orton orton orton orton orton!!!!!!!
Orton orton orton orton orton!!!!!!!

[Snk16]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? :(

:ugh:

WHAT THE HELL!

[COBronc78]

Your kidding me....you have to be kidding me

[SuperCaliBronco]

You have got to be kidding!

[Tremendous45th]

it dont matter its a touchdown

[Pruke]

Wow - talk about momentum killers / heartbreak / name your cliche.

They need to challenge this.

[getlynched47]

Momentum killer.

[DenBroFan22]

Oh my God, Moreno.....

[Incomplete84]

You got to be effing kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MFJ]

got to challenge that call

[bucking bronco]

Where's Hillis?

[RodSmithRules]

They have to challenge this.

[Spartan82]

Thats a td!!!!!

[Hoserman117]

I LOVE YOU ORTON OMGOMGOIMFKASLDKFdAKSDGJOGMGOGGMGMGMGOKSDKFHASLKDF JOASIDGMOKASLDF

Simms = Ubar FAILZ

[ScrubNation]

That looked in.

[Peerless]

Of course that would happen...

Why wouldn't it.

[Andyy_47]

Need this call to go our way, our season pretty much depends on it, come on refs, be homers! lol

[thatkidhunt]

that a baby orton!!!!!!!!!!

[Bellthebest]

freakin moreno!!!!


gosh!

they better overule this!

[AccidenT79]

That was across the plane! /crosses fingers

[Roddoliver]

Unbelieveable

[Tremendous45th]

touchdown baby we on the board good thats what we needed we needed to score

[Master Supreme]

What the HELL, Orton comes in and owns these guys and you friggin peasants cant hold on to the ball ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR :sad:

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Why football gods? Why do you torture me!!

[ChargerFann]

Close but no cigar

[Alcaeus15]

You'd have to think Hillis wouldn't fumble once every ten attempts, GOD!! Thanks Moreno for killing all of our momentum

[Spartan82]

BALL WAS ACROSS BEFORE IT CAME OUT. Its on DVR!!

[broooks77]

Woooooow.

I can't believe that just happened.

[mojo0730]

My God! Does it feel like that 6-0 start never happened to anyone else right now?

[megirb444]

Let's hope his knee was down.. how depressing would that be? I was starting to tear up to see Orton throw those two strikes and I was just waiting for the TD celebration... Moreno, keep the ball buddy..

[Snk16]

Knowshon, you gotta be kidding me.

[Martinbronco]

They have to over rule it

[Tremendous45th]

im sorely lacking in cp im tellin you now its a touchdown....keep me in ur thoughts if it is lolll

[Elway]

hate when it is in the hands of the Stripes!

[Incomplete84]

If there was ever a rookie mistake, that was the one you would not want to have.

[RunYouOver]

I can't believe that just happened :laugh:

There's no way this gets overturned either.

[L.I. BroncosFan]

At least i can keep watchin this game with orton in there theres hope they were destroying simms blind side.

[odiesback]

I will surprised if they rule a TD...


man this sucks big time.

[JimmyJm]

MY GOD MAN...........:cheeky:

[bucking bronco]

It looked like a TD to me but the refs hate Denver so......

[AtwaterHITS27]

Man, Orton looked soo determined on that drive. It's awesome to see him out there. :salute:

Hopefully they call Knowshon's run a TD. It looked like he had it over the goal line.

[Starbroncs]

moreno has serious fumble issues. :sad:

[Andyy_47]

Studio in the UK thinks it's a TD. Hope they're right.

[glenwillett]

He looked down to me

[redbirdy80]

I'm close to tears.

[Bellthebest]

momentum is SO huge in this league..... hopefully we get it :(

[DBroncos 4 Life]

great this is crazy

[Snk16]

Hochstein is a traitor.

[mojo0730]

It's a fumble.

Even if it was close - and it was PRETTY close - it has to be DEFINITIVE to overturn. I see nothing DEFINITIVE to overturn that call.

The Broncos are spiraling FAST.

[HarlemHeat]

That drive sums up how we're currently playing..Orton comes in and gets us serious momentum, but we fumble it in the end zone..great..

[Roddoliver]

Looks like a TD

[Pruke]

UGH - tastes like crap to say the least.

[glenwillett]

It's Hochstein's fault

[SuperCaliBronco]

We lose the challenge and a timeout. :ugh:

[DBroncos 4 Life]

I am now crying

[Andyy_47]

That's bullcrap, we saw the pictures, it was a TD!

[ChargerFann]

hah i thought it was a touchdown

[Bellthebest]

I cant believe this!!!


Why?!?!?!?!?

Why moreno!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!!??!?!


Why!??!?!

[RodSmithRules]

Terrible call....

[Neleus]

Not enough to reverse the call.

[Elway]

Kneed by our own guy? Wow that totally sucks.

2 fumbles deep in SD territory.

[bucking bronco]

It looked like a TD to me but the refs hate Denver so......

There you go...it's a fumble.

[Snk16]

He was definetly over the line...

[DrunkPanda]

It's called a touchdown.

You're just pissed because Simms actually does suck, Orton is actually good, and you've been wrong all along.

what the hell are you talking about? what am i wrong about? and why are you talking about orton and simms?

[Martinbronco]

That's a joke, that's a TD. Looks like the refs want to change things from last year.

[BroncsSB#3]

2 redzone drives, 2 lost fumbles.

[Roddoliver]

That was a TD 100%

[Incomplete84]

Orton comes out slinging it and then our dumb ass running back kills us.

[Tremendous45th]

i cant believe it the one time we make some headway we go right back to bullspit

[Bellthebest]

that would have been great momentum going into the half

[Hoserman117]

Wow screw you refs.

:brick: :brick:

[Alcaeus15]

Come on Orton you can lead us back in the 2nd half!

[mojo0730]

Terrible call....

It wasn't terrible.

It was close - almost a microsecond.

There's no way you can tell definitively if he cross the line before the ball came out.

It was a difficult call, the refs rules in San Diego's favor, and there wasn't anything conclusive to overturn it.

[bucking bronco]

I don't even care bout that fumble. Orton looks good and the offense will score with him in the game.

[Starbroncs]

I really want to punch someone right now. Simms where are you?

[megirb444]

Well, all we can hope is for the D to make them punt and Orton comes back out.. Maybe give it to Buck instead for the next drive

[HarlemHeat]

That reminded me of our offensive lineman knocking the ball out of Cutler's hands at Green Bay's 1-yard line..

[MasterTick]

Might as well call him Knowhands....

[odd_thomas]

Christ Allmighty..another turnover in the red zone

[RodSmithRules]

Where else could the ball be if he loses it IN the endzone? He has possession of it when it crosses the plane.

Terrible, terrible call.....all because there isn't a camera angle from the other side of the field.....

[Incomplete84]

I think it is officially to late for us now.

[Bellthebest]

its alright at least we know that Kyle Orton can get us back into it!

[Tremendous45th]

im bout sick of moreno he aint did nothin special....make him sit if hillis can sit so can he

[DenBroFan22]

Regardless of the call, Moreno needs to hold on to the damn ball!

[JohnElwayFan]

Thanks a lot, refs. :mad:

Gosh, the refs are so annoying.

[Roddoliver]

Our momentum sank like the Titanic and what a cold cold shower

[COBronc78]

I think it is officially to late for us now.

You realize the scores of the Dallas and NE game going into half right? It's never too late

[odiesback]

Knocking on the door and coming back with ZERO ... twice... oh man

[LASERLIPS]

Apparently we aren't supposed to win this game today, bcs that crap was sovereignly orchestrated.

[Pruke]

Well - I guess that makes the Ed Hoculli call all even. That was pretty close - in fact, you could make the case he was in.

Not going to fault Moreno for trying for the TD.

GREAT STOP by DJ!

[Spartan82]

It’s the football gods. They hated our 6-0 start.

[The_Roses_Thorn]

It wasn't terrible.

It was close - almost a microsecond.

There's no way you can tell definitively if he cross the line before the ball came out.

It was a difficult call, the refs rules in San Diego's favor, and there wasn't anything conclusive to overturn it.
I disagree with this. They said the ruling on the field was confirmed. This means the officials thought there was indisputable video evidence that their call was correct.

Put shortly, they're absolutely wrong. That was INDISPUTABLE video evidence of a TOUCHDOWN. Anyone who says otherwise is either blind or a Chargers homer.

[DBroncos 4 Life]

just go to halftime

Good Job D.J. Williams

[ERoyal248]

2 fumbles in the redzone.. if we got a td there, hold em, maybe come back in the 2nd half.

[mojo0730]

You realize the scores of the Dallas and NE game going into half right? It's never too late

The difference being that we were playing mistake-free football.

You're not playing mistake-free football turning it over twice in the redzone.

[odiesback]

maybe a last change at half??

[Andyy_47]

Where did one of our time outs go?....

[Roddoliver]

It’s the football gods. They hated our 6-0 start.

Yea but 6-10 is just overkill

[RodSmithRules]

Come on, Kyle!! Just pick up where you left off last week! Get it to Brandon!

[Pruke]

We have a chance for a FG. Let's get out of this mess down by 10, get some Nolan adjustments at the half and win this d*mn game!

[DBroncos 4 Life]

No I lied...Field Goal! Field Goal

[Incomplete84]

Well lets see if we can make some magic before the half, we need some points!!!! Dont mind me, I am losing my effing mind over this game.

[Bellthebest]

gosh kyle :( INT

[getlynched47]

Game over.

This is game over.

I hate my football team right now

[thequarterback]

Not an int =/

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Why do you throw when you are backpedaling Orton?

[odiesback]

Someone wake me up from this nightmare :((((

[Elway]

AN int? Really inbounds? Possesion

[odd_thomas]

God must have money riding on the Chargers.:sad:

[One_Eyed_Pony]

sadomasochists how to beat yourselves.

Mistakes Mistakes, Mistakes

[Bellthebest]

you have got to be kidding me kyle :(

[Peerless]

I'm done watching.

[Andyy_47]

That's bad, juggled OB and had to secure it.


LT just got destroyed there.

[mojo0730]

So much for Orton saving this team, eh?

[Alcaeus15]

Meh that int doesnt mean much

[I_Shon]

no review? I know its 19 seconds but...

[Fatfro]

Knowshon Momentum-stopping Moreno.

[bucking bronco]

Who cares. They weren't going to score with 20 seconds on the clock anyway. Moreno scored a TD that was nullified by the refs.

[Tremendous45th]

we dont have any killer mentality on this team....we got dawkins but what is dawkins???

the loudest person in the room.....

tell me who is afraid of the loudest person in the room?

[Broncos724]

Wow gotta give props to Cromartie on that one - good play

[REALBroncFan]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

[DBroncos 4 Life]

Well what do you all think?

It could be worse right?:go:

[Incomplete84]

I would like to be a fly in that locker room, you know there is going to be a lot of yelling going on in there.

[Pruke]

Well - time to lick the wounds in the locker room and come back out fighting.

I hope it's emphasized that this may be THE biggest game of the year for us.

We are at home.

We are tied.

A win is a 2 game lead in the division.

We have a chance against a SD team that is not as good defensively as it was last year.

We have a chance and after that horrible start, that's all I can ask for.

[RodSmithRules]

We have played like garbage in the first half, but we are NOT out of it.

Two TDs and some staunch defense and we WIN this game. COME ON!!

[BroncsSB#3]

3 turnovers in the first half and 2 of them in the redzone and we're only down by 13. That's not actually bad, but this game has sucked so far...big time.

[ms620]

Orton blows. The Broncos o-line and the WRs make him look good.

[Elway]

OKay down by 2 TDs, Kyle back in the game. If the D makes a few stands and the refs don't get involved we may have a chance.

[ERoyal248]

Game over.

This is game over.

I hate my football team right now

Yeah, agree. Cant have 2 turnovers in the redzone. If it was 13-7 going into halftime, we could come back. SHIIIIIIT

[Bellthebest]

GUYS

its fine.... we get a fresh start to the half with Kyle Orton.... ya he threw that pick but cmon ! lets get our faith back up...


We can do this! There is still a WHOLE half of football to be played!

[Alcaeus15]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

He's WAY better.

[Martinbronco]

What a disaster of a first half.

The only positive thing about is that we are just about still in it. The D has to make a stop at the start of the second half though.

[megirb444]

I really hope we come out like we did the first 6 games and make our 2nd half adjustments that brings us back in it. I have a feeling we could get back in it now that Orton is in and he made those throws.. Our turnovers are killing us, once again!!

[Roddoliver]

I can't help but think about Orakpo and Wells right now... I know the hindsight thing and the "they are just rookies" thing, but oh damn...

[chazoe60]

Why the hell if Orton is well enough to play was he not playing from the begining. That was stupid

[Pruke]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

REALBRoncFan? Are you serious with your tag? Isn't time to go to bed?

[Neleus]

Well - time to lick the wounds in the locker room and come back out fighting.

I hope it's emphasized that this may be THE biggest game of the year for us.

We are at home.

We are tied.

A win is a 2 game lead in the division.

We have a chance against a SD team that is not as good defensively as it was last year.

We have a chance and after that horrible start, that's all I can ask for.

Huh what?

10

[One_Eyed_Pony]

Let's see if things will change in the second half, but stats prove it worst.

Simms waivers Monday morning

[Incomplete84]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

Your right, Orton didnt just drive us down for sure points and have our running back cough it up. He threw a pick before the half that didnt matter, nice try. Orton over simms any day of teh week, any one with an iq over 10 can see that.

[Hoserman117]

With Kyle back in we have a chance.

I BELIEEEVE!!!!

I just wish it was 13-7 :sad:

[getlynched47]

Congratulations Denver Broncos!!!

You convinced me to turn off this pathetic game and actually do homework.

Kudos to you guys. You should be very proud of what you accomplished.


Thanks and I'm happy I won't have to see you guys continue to suck it up. Thank goodness I will be doing something productive instead of wasting my time watching you a**hats throw the game away.

I'm still a Denver Broncos fan and will always be one, but I will not waste my time watching this debacle. I can do something important now.

I'll catch the low-lights on Sportscenter tonight :td::td::td:

[Tremendous45th]

I would like to be a fly in that locker room, you know there is going to be a lot of yelling going on in there.

nah mcdaniels is an over analytical football nerd...he doesnt yell n stuff he just reasons and fidgets....

kind of like our team we analyze and paralyze ourselves by doing it too much....

[The_Roses_Thorn]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol
Get the hell off of these boards. Now.

I'm sick and tired of ignorant people claiming to be fans laughing about Bronco struggles.

1. In no way is Orton nearly as bad as Simms.
2. In no way is Orton throwing an interception something to LAUGH about.

If you think that it's funny to watch the Broncos struggle because it lends some credence to your misguided opinions, then you aren't a fan of this team.

[Bellthebest]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

dude.... you MUST have missed Orton's first drive.. You MUST have....

[cooperkayd]

There ya go ORTON fans..... not much better than simms! lol

Dude, Orton has been great this year. That was just an amazing play by A.C. Give me a break...

[REALBroncFan]

He's WAY better.

yeah, well zero plus zero equals zero....

[Incomplete84]

Why the hell if Orton is well enough to play was he not playing from the begining. That was stupid

I assume he isnt 100 percent, it is the only thing that makes sense.

[thatkidhunt]

Im so sick of the same crap out of the refs every week, and im not just referring to denver games, this happens in the nfl every week. They rule something one way on the field, and if it isnt BLATENLY obvious that they missed the call they just simply come back and say "nope we got it right" too bad, that was a touchdown, all the ball has to do is break the front plain of the goaline and its a touchdown and it was OBVIOUS that it did before the ball came loose, im so fed up with this crap from the officials, if you missed the call then get it right, you just took 7 points off the board for us Zebras, thank you very friggen much, good grief, what a load of CRAP!!!!!!!!!!

[speardog]

It's obvious to me Denver's QB for next year is not Kyle Orton or Chris Simms. I have been pretty much saying that same thing all year.

Maybe, it's Brandstater.

[AtwaterHITS27]

I don't understand not reviewing the INT but it really doesn't matter. We had a chance to seize the momentum in the red zone. The Moreno fumble really hurt.

[gobroncos313]

Is Brandstater officially our backup qb now? Simms looks awful.
