broncosfan07 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Let’s just get this season over with please. Normally would be a good game to see what you have in young players or depth players but not sure can say we will learn much about any real positions of need.

broncos67 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Just end the season. Chargers by a TD so we set the record for most losses within 7pts. 27-20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnAngryAmerican Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Yeah I’m ready to put this season to bed and enjoy another HC search. You know Mike was here for 15 years and since 2010, including interims, we have 9 different HCs - Mac, Studesville, Fox, JDR, Kubiak, Vance, Vic, Hackett and Rosburg. Put another way, in 12 seasons we’ve had 3-times as many HCs as the Steelers have had in their entire existence. Anyway, the Chargers have their playoff spot locked up so I wouldn’t be surprised to see Staley play it safe and vanilla, giving us a chance. I think we just have too many injuries to overcome, however, and the Chargers want to go into the postseason on a positive note so they pull off a close one.

No need to play anyone except Joey Bosa on a pitch count to get into game shape - every other major starter likely to sit most or all of the game. I was going to take us a dog to win - but now we’re actually favored to win. Given it’s Chase Daniel & the backups as a very real possibility. I think even if the Chargers played their guys we’d be competitive in another 1-score game. But with their backups we should be favored at home. This game is a final audition for at least 1/3 of the guys on whether they return as starters or return at all (whole season obv matters but last chance to make a lasting impression). Should be very telling. Edited January 6, 2023 by Broncofan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbrog24 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Very hopeful we win for a minor moral victory in knowing the Seahawks would get the 6th pick instead of the 3rd pick (highest we've picked since Von Miller) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ-x Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Wilson is legitimately clueless in this system. Crazy to see from a 10 year vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncofan Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Well, it's 17-17 at halftime, and Chargers HC Staley decided to keep his starters in the entire 1H. Which has backfired as Mike Williams and Joey Bosa suffered injuries late in the 2Q (Bosa is somewhat more understandable, because he just returned last week after missing almost the entire season - needs to get into game shape). Our DL lack of depth, cover ILB, and the CB's against Allen with K'Waun Williams out (along with Mathis pre-game), no surprise. It shows how much DL depth and cover ILB are a priority this offseason. We'll get K'waun Williams and Mathis back, and adding a 4th CB depth wise is very do-able. So nothing I see in the 1H worries me there. It was nice to see Baron Browning flash again, too. With the Chargers playing their starters on D - not surprisingly, our pass game suffered until the very last 3 plays. Our OL just stinks (yes, no Anderson either today, I get it, but we still stink). And Russ missed a couple of clear reads early. But moving him outside the pocket, and naturally he looks a lot better. And again, while he only got the ball 2x, we see why Jeudy has become our biggest threat - his move on Khalil Mack to get the 1st down on the run, turned a 6 yard loss into a 13 yard run, and he toasted another CB getting open with Wilson finally making the connection. Sutton's become the big body possession guy, nothing wrong with that, but he's going to struggle with good pass D's like LAC has. Finally, my ONE real objection - there is just no way Chase Edmonds should be getting 5+ carries a half and Lat Murray sitting on the sideline. Edmonds is a real threat in space but has ZERO inside running ability. Those were wasted downs. Outten gets a F there. For the 2H, I would hope we see Lat Murray get 10+ carries, and Jeudy get 5+ targets. It's not rocket science, ppl. Other than that - just no serious injuries to our core guys, please. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1234567 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Is it me, or does it seem like a lot of players are having a hard time keeping their feet under them today? Bad field conditions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s our best WR That was lunacy the people saying trade him for a 2nd. He certainly has some character question marks, but you can't deny his talent and ability to maneuver the field like none of our other receivers can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizmo78 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Justin Simmons has been a monster this year. Shame he's overshadowed by how terrible our offense/record are. Missed 5 games and still tied the league in interceptions. He has been consistently been coming up clutch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-mac Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Call me crazy but I don’t think we are completely screwed. Disaster of a year for sure but I think an awful lot of it falls on Hackett. We could be a wildcard team next year if we hit on the HC hire and have a good off-season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
