lomaxgrUK Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Struggling for time but thought I'd get the thread going. Early kick off out East - never easy, regardless of the opponent. A replicated Offensive performance with increased execution in key spots (Hamler drop, Albert O fumble) would be lovely. Defensively, the key against rookie QBs is always early downs. Get them in 3rd and long to throw in them exotic blitzes and coverages on the back end. But, if you let them get going on early downs in the run game, you then open yourself to play action with easy reads for the QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutler06 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 So, can we go 2-0 ? On the road ? In Sept ? Against the #1 overall draft pick ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncoBruin Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 The Jags are a dumpster fire. Unlike the Giants game where I just wanted a win by any means, I’d be disappointed if we don’t win with some style points here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broncosfan_101 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I don’t think JAX has the front 7 to take advantage of our OL. One thing I think I noticed though, is that while I’d say the OL wasn’t great vs NYG, I thought they got some pretty decent help from the backs and TE’s. I can’t think of a serious missed assignment by that group in pass pro (granted, I probably missed about one third of the game.) And while I think our front 7 should be able to beat their OL consistently, the Jags have a sneaky good set of offensive weapons that could cause a problem if we don’t get to Lawrence. Give me the good guys winning 26-10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcpbawler Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Early east coast game aside, I'm not worried about this one at all. Thought hiring Urban Meyer was a pretty big mistake, Lawrence has flashed but is gonna be prone to mistakes, their defense isn't very good either and I think Von/Chubb (if he's a go) will live in the backfield. They have some solid WR but that's our strength, even with Darby going to IR. I'll definitely be looking at PS2, he didn't look great in his only target last week (TD to Shepard) but that was a tough cover with no help over the top. Josh Allen is talented but that's why we paid Bolles. Healthy dose of the running game and hopefully Sutton gets back into the groove being the #1 WR now.

paul-mac Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I think we’ll take this one, but it’ll be closer than people think. Denver coming off a big east coast road win but going into another east coast road game, this time an early one. Jags coming off an embarrassing blowout loss to a team everyone thought were going to be terrible. Big bounce back game for them and down to earth game for us. I’ll say the Broncos take it 20-17 in OT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broncos67 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I'll be disappointed personally if we don't win this comfortably. Jacksonville's defense is a turnstile. Houston had a good day against them, so there's really no reason we can't do the same. That said, I've seen Denver lay an egg in this situation before so I'm being a little cautious with my expectations, but if we want to be a playoff contender, these are the kind of games we need to win. I'll say 28-17 Denver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to think that will stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutler06 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I see this as a 10pt+ win for us, especially with all the dishevel surrounding their HC. Two consecutive road wins, even against inferior competition can be a strong confidence builder, a loss here would really put Vic on thin ice IMO.

jsthomp2007 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I'd just follow the Houston blueprint on this one, which was a healthy dose of Mark Ingram, some Phillip Lindsay, and a little bit of David Johnson, and then Tyrod managing the rest of the game. What I was really unhappy with last week for the Broncos was that they allowed double digits to the Giants, albeit, a score from DJ during garbage time was the culprit. I want to see the Broncos either shutout the Jags, or to give up no more than 3 to 6 points. Broncos 30 Jags 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomaxgrUK Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 Man, some serious confidence here. We never play well out East at 1pm. I'd take a win no matter how we get it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncoBruin Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I don’t think any of our recent teams, even the VJ teams, would lose this game tbh. It would be one of the most embarrassing losses ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban Myer and Lawrence in their first NFL game on the road could flip the switch this week...you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
