Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I think it says a lot about how well our defense has played lately that we can allow 23 points against a QB with two Super Bowl rings, and people are a bit disappointed.
The defense got screwed. That fumble was the game. If we recover, we go up 3 scores with one quarter left to play. McGahee's fumble didn't help, either.
At the end of the day, one of the TDs they allowed never should have happened. Another came on an incredible catch, one play after Champ dropped an interception.
Today was frustrating. We came so close on three different would-be turnovers. That awesome pick by Goodman was called back on an unrelated penalty; the fumble was blown dead; and Champ dropped the INT. We were right there on those. Gotta come up with those plays moving forward.
On the whole, I'd say all three phases played very well. Ironically, the weakest aspect of our team today was our rushing attack.
Look at it this way guys, if that was Miller, Williams, Mays etc we would have a different feeling about it.
These guys play a vicious violet contact sport and hits like that happen. It was a pretty clean hit. Now do I wish it hadn't happened? of course I would have rather him get the catch and keep on playing but hits like that happen.
On the flip side, it was after that play the Broncos started playing with some fire like they wanted revenge.
One of the biggest differences is, is that Harrison has instances like this a LOT.
It wasn't just something that happened out of the blue. This guy has taken a LOT of shots at guys just like this one.
With him, it isn't unusual at all.
It is expected. Because he pulls garbage like that consistently
There is a HUGE difference there.
Sometimes bad things happen during a football game. 99.9% of the time, they are accidents. The results of a violent, physical sport.
Watching that after hearing Thomas during a post game interview, it really makes it easier to see how the play worked. He said he saw Troy P. sneaking up (up to that point, the Bronc's only had 1 pass play on first down) and he said he knew it was going to be a TD.
I don't think the Steelers O is "sub par". I would have liked to seen our D close it out too but you don't get to 3 superbowls and win 2 of them without making plays and fighting til the end. Bottom line is we won the game and beat a great team in doing so.
The D played awesome! I hope next week we can get pressure on Brady!:thumb:
I think it was a record..
fastest score/win in overtime in the Playoffs.
It was a record for the first ever non sudden death ot in NFL history, the longest TD pass in NFL playoff history and the fastest OT win in NFL history.
i kinda like the idea of T.O just cause i think that he could teach dT to be more dominate, i mean they are pretty much the same athelete, Dt is Just a bit bigger.
we could bring back cosby, not sure how good he would be, he was dropped after the NE game.
