Official Game Day Thread: 2020: Week 1 Titans vs Broncos

[the0rangecrush]

Quite simply we had too many mental errors all around. On the bright side Lock looked pretty good, and the young guys are promising. It's not too surprising with a new offensive system. You can't lose your two stars in the week leading up to the game and not see a big dip. As of right now, we are an average team.

Usually I got a good idea who the bad teams and good teams are after week one. The games were so ugly it I need another week.

What does that have to do with Denver refusing to eat clock on 2 possessions inside the 6 minute mark or use timeouts to give our offense a chance?

He was killing them all through the first half and you don’t throw to him the rest of the game? You stop what was working? You go to your playmakers in crunch time and Hamilton and Patrick aren’t it. It has nothing to do with the last two possessions. Opening the 2nd half with 3 and out sure didn’t help. Feed Fant!!

Absolutely, however, as bad as that drop was, there is a lot of criticism to go around for that game.

yes indeed fumbles over throws dumb penalties poor coaching again defense cant get a stop late to win sounds like last year

[BroncoRider89]

Sloppy game by our offense and our defense hung in there. A lot of mistakes to clean up on offense tho but once we clean them up I'd imagine we'd be a pretty good team.

The Titans are a very good team

[Rastic]

Reasons for the L

1. Zero pressure on Tannehill outside their first drive

2. Lock making some bad reads And bad throws

3. OC was not impressive in the least bit, how many shotgun runs for no gain

4. No goal line creativity ... 4 tries from the 1, 4 runs into the strength of the titan defense

5. Horrid clock managment by fangio
Give us a minute and we might have a chance

Throw in untimely drops and Johnson's horrible timing of a penalty that took away an interception.

Did they forget Fant was still on team?

Only saw him targeted once, maybe twice in the second half.

Interesting time out strategy, to say the least.

KCs D will eat us alive

Their D? your worry about KC's D? With how Dumb the "Defense Guru" looked, I'm more worry about their Offense. We might as well just tell out offense to stay home, because Kelce is going to run them open inside quick pass route on us all night long.

Terrible loss. The game was handed to you on a freaking platter!!!! 10 points off the board due to missed FG and an extra point. My god , in the last 6 minutes mount a freaking drive to eat some clock so that poor clock management is not even an issue for you.

I mean give yourself a chance to win . You leave your team with 17 seconds?? My god , how do you even rebound from this disaster. It’s just unexplainable

it was there lock over threw Hamilton wide open for a TD late

[BroncoDrej]

Both teams played hard. And had a great practice. Denver is 1-0 in MV(moral victories)...
🙄

[HDbroncos02]

Lots that one could easily dissect. The clock management at the end was curious, Ojemudia’s PI (which I question, Brown slipped when he changed direction), that penultimate botched drive in enemy territory, Alexander Johnson’s penalty, Jeudy’s drops, Gordon’s fumble, the failed 4th and goal... etc.

I don’t put too much stock into it. This was basically the first “preseason” game. If we’re still making these mistakes week after week, there won’t be an excuse. Hopefully we learn from this, settle down next week, and get the job done.

the second JJ drop was the killer would of had it inside the 40 and 1st down

Absolutely, however, as bad as that drop was, there is a lot of criticism to go around for that game.

[Chronoless]

I dont wanna hear a "well he did miss 3 FG, so I thought if he missed 1 more, we would rather not have the ball back with 1 min on the clock to kneel with the ball" from Vic dumba**

KCs D will eat us alive
