BroncoBruin Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Amazing job by our defense and special teams to keep us in it. Offense continues to derail after finding success. Going to be a great second half. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler06 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 (edited) Only down by 4pts and we get the ball first in the 2nd half, could be a lot worse IMO. Realistically, their TD shouldn't have happened either, blind refs ! Edited September 26, 2022 by Cutler06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizmo78 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I know all are feeling doom and gloom right now, but that was incredibly encouraging to me. Game management is infinitely better and our run game has shown signs of being a legit threat against a great defense. Now, there is still a ways to go, but those are the growing pains I expected from the get go of an offense with a new HC/OC and QB with no preseason. It's definitely not great but there is definitely observable progress imo. Hopefully we can make some plays in the second half and come away with this W while working through our issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontanaBronco Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 We are playing against a defense where it at least seems like our offensive struggles are more acceptable, but it would be nice to be able to be excited about our offense for a change. I don't know many more wasted defensive performances I can stand to watch lol A lot of offensive struggles around the league so far this year to be honest.

Broncofan Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 A few halftime thoughts as I'm at the Main Forum GDT (posted there as well): 1. DEN's vulnerability on 1st down and 2nd/short is so stark. SF stays there, they'll be better. It's 2nd/3rd and long, DEN's pass rush and coverage giving SF problems. And yes, PS2 is a monster - an island onto himself. 2. On the flip side, DEN is wasting plays with MG3 running up the middle. So what do we do? We call it 4x in the first 3 drives...and 1st down after that massive momentum swinging improv with Russell Wilson. It's so frustrating. The 3 pts Shanny gave us by declining we gave right back with that play call, followed by the Sutton drop, and the Wilson sack. That 1Q play calling plan was UNBELIEVABLY UGLY (as much as SF's was genius on the 2nd/3rd drive) 3. The SF pass rush is giving our OL fits; Garrett Bolles is not having a good night. 4. Both ST's have played really well. Which is honestly surprising for us. Same as the lack of penalties. Hope it continues for us in the 2H. 5. The DEN O could stand to go tempo (and that doesn't mean just pass) - with Javonte Williams in the backfield for 70+ percent of the snaps. STOP with Mike Boone/MG3 unless he's gassed (then OK). Ride or die with your best guys. Still, we're lucky to be down 7-3. SF was threatening to blow the doors off us in the 1Q. The opening possession will be huge - it was a big letdown to not get points (and a TD would let the O and crowd exhale given our RZ futility so far).

Cutler06 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Well, not turnovers, strong defense, much better clock management, only TWO penalties.....I'd call those aspects all positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1234567 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 What the hell is with these refs tonight? First they swallow the whistle on a blatant pick play for the only TD of the game. Then they pick the flag back up on a blatant tripping call. Def not doing us any favors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
