The Broncos compete as a member club of the National Football League (NFL)'s American Football Conference (AFC) West division. The team began play in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL) and joined the NFL as part of the merger in 1970... At which point the Mighty Green Bay Packers had already racked up 11 NFL Championships The Broncos were barely competitive during their 10-year run in the AFL and their first seven years in the NFL. They did not complete a winning season until 1973. In 1977, four years later, they qualified for the playoffs for the first time in franchise history and advanced to Super Bowl XII and got beaten soundly. They also lost to the SF 49ers 55 -10 in one of the most lopsided Title games in history and they share the NFL record for most Super Bowl losses (5) Below is the box score for the end-of-season game between Packers and broncos in 2003 where all the fans were watching the Jumbotron at Lambeau... as Nate Poole ended the vikes season in the desert.

MacReady Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I feel like the Packers are the only team in the NFL right now susceptible to an EDGE rush. Not a good matchup for us. If there’s ever a time for quick passes, Sunday is it. I’m still on Dom Capers time, so I feel like Flacco is going to tear us up. Gotta remember it’s Petrine and Savage, King, Alexander and Amos. Not Capers, Brice, Clinton-Dix, Gunter and Hawkins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOnlyThing Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Can't overlook the addition of the Smith brothers (and hopefully some impact coming from Gary). Gonna be a long day for the human hold penalty Bolles on Sunday. And no Clay no Perry no Gilbert no Biegel no Odom. How refreshing. Thanks Gute. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far this year with MIA he's played in two games and made one tackle. A sack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanedorf Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Since he entered the league in 2017, Broncos left tackle Garrett Bolles has been penalized for holding 16 times. Those are just the penalties that were accepted, though. Two of Bolles’ four holding penalties on Sunday were declined so he was only credited with two. He also held a fifth time but the penalty was incorrectly credited to guard Ron Leary. So, based on the numbers, it’s not surprising that Bolles has a reputation for holding. Speaking to media members Monday, Denver coach Vic Fangio indicated that Bolles may need to respond better to coaching. “He’s just got to be a little bit more technique sound,” Fangio said. “I think he suffers from — you know, he thinks he’s in good position sometimes and dumps the guy at the end and thinks it’s a legal block. “We have to do a better job of explaining that to him. He’s got to do a better job of listening to the explaining. But I think he can.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanedorf Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 It’s far from the start the Denver Broncos or Broncos Country was anticipating, but the team is 0-2 after two ugly losses to begin the season. It’s the team’s first 0-2 start since 1999, the year after John Elway retired. The Broncos have created quite the hole to dig out of with a trip to Lambeau Field looming and Vic Fangio and his group will have to turn things around quickly before this becomes a lost season. After two miserable seasons under Vance Joseph, it wasn’t supposed to be this way. This was supposed to be a year of redemption for Denver, but that is starting to look unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
