1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Oh Man, the Broncos defense plays so good today, so

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: good pastser tam with that PBu. Right before that, Jaquon

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: McMillan had the TfL Talano Whufanga had some PBUs In

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: this game, a couple of TFLs defense played sensational. They

5
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: really were They really were special, no doubt about that.

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Broncos React. I'm Ryan Edwards. We still

7
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: have one more gift card to give away for Sam's

8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: number three diner and bar on until nine o'clock.

00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: Broncos React, presented by Exfinity. Imagine that.

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: And by the way, the Broncos did get five sacks today,

11
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 1: So for every sack made in today's game, the Dan

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: Caplis Law Firm will make a generous donation to Denver

Speaker 1: a serious firm for serious cases. Get on to nine o'clock.

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: A couple of texts here going up fourteen would have

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: forced them to play into our defense's strengths on the

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: road and most likely a snow game made one hundred

20
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: percent sense passibly clapped in the NFC in two weeks. Yeah,

21
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: Like I said, I if the Broncos were in the

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and we obviously had two weeks to talk

23
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: about it, I probably would have talked myself into the

24
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: Broncos winning by the end of it. Even though I've

25
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: said consistently all season long that I think the strength

26
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: is in the NFC this year.

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 2: So we'll see. We'll see what the Patriots see.

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: I'm sure the Patriots over the course of the next

29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks and out there radio row are all

30
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: going to find ways to talk themselves into beating either

31
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks, who currently lead the LA Rams seventeen

32
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: thirteen and a half. But once again, I just think

33
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: those teams are more complete. That's my takeh Let's see here,

34
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: I mentioned Breeshall to be a thumping running back. No,

35
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: I love Breeshall's game, don't get me wrong. To the texture,

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: I think my take on it is more of I

37
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: don't know if Sean Payton is in the position or

38
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: what wants to be in the position of paying premium

39
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: money for running back. Now, that doesn't mean he won't.

40
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: It's just you know the times that they've done that. Really,

41
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara is the only one that comes to mind.

42
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: I know that they brought back mark Ingram, but for

43
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: the most part, they never paid like free agents to

44
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: choose the Broncos.

45
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: Now you have some money here, or I choose the Saints,

46
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 2: but they have some money.

47
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll see a bit of a swing for it

48
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: here in the off season at some positions.

49
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see that. JK.

50
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: Dobbins, we had the caller earlier in a couple of texts.

51
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: Imagine he's going to be another Vetmin guy. It's unfortunate

52
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: for him that injuries have plagued his career, but that's

53
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: what it feels like to me that he might be

54
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: once again a Vetmin guy. Maybe you give him a

55
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: little bit of a bump because he looks so good

56
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: and he'll be healthy going into the season. But that

57
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: would be what I think most teams are going to do.

58
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: I wish the swing Colorado caller would call in throughout

59
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,959
Speaker 1: the year on the various KWA shows. It would be interesting, right,

60
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: LWA needed Terrell Davis Bone needs his TD. Yeah, today

61
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: would have been that day. No doubt about it. If

62
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: the Broncos, yeah, you lose bon Nicks, who is one

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: of your best runners also and if you would have

64
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: had that option, Like I said, ramondre Stevenson twenty five

65
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: carries today. It didn't feel like he had a massive

66
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: impact on the game, but they were able to lean

67
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: on him when they needed to. And Trevion only had

68
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: three carries for five yards. But Remandre being kind of

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: that hammerhead, twenty five carries for seventy one yards. It

70
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: made all the difference because you could lean on that

71
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: when you needed to. Ryan, you and the crew crew

72
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: are awesome. I have enjoyed listening all year. So to

73
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: all the haters out there there, shut up. The Broncos

74
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: had a great year. The defense kept them in most

75
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: games this year. But the reason City is a backup

76
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: is because he's a backup. We lost our starting quarterback

77
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: in the last game of the year. So it is

78
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: what it is. Well, thank you for the compliment, and yeah,

79
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: I think history will look on it like that. I

80
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: certainly feel like after we get past the frustration of

81
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: this loss, that's what we're going to be thinking about,

82
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: is what could have been with bon Nicks this year?

83
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: And you hate to do that, You hate to feel

84
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: that way, but that's just kind of what it is.

85
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 2: But here we are out of the playoffs and thinking

86
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 2: about next year.

87
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: But thinking about next year with a franchise quarterback in

88
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: tow and the ability to build around him, that is

89
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: pretty exciting stuff. We go back to the phones and

90
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: Broncos sixty is up next year on the show.

91
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 2: What's up Broncos sixty?

92
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 3: How are you doing that, buddy?

93
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: I'm good? Thanks for holding on.

94
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 3: Okay, I was just staying and talk too long, but

95
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 3: I was hoping that we'd win. But you know, we've

96
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 3: got a backup quarterback.

97
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 4: Has it played for two or three years?

98
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 3: You know, you just hoping that they keep the game

99
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 3: call what they did. So I'm happy about that part.

100
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 3: If we had bow knicks, we don't won. We don't

101
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: won today.

102
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree, And.

103
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 3: And I think, like, what do we lose three or

104
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: four games by three points this year?

105
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I asked that question again.

106
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 3: Do we lose three games or four games by three points?

107
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: Yes? They they lost.

108
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: They lost to Indianapolis by one, They lost to LA

109
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: the Chargers by three.

110
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: Now they did.

111
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: They did lose to Jacksonville by two scorers, by fourteen points.

112
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: That was the most significant loss. But yeah, you lose

113
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: two games by a combined four points, and then this, uh,

114
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: this game here by three. So three of your four

115
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: losses on the season were three points or less.

116
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 3: Well, you know, you got to consider that we had

117
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 3: a good season, and then so did your radio stations.

118
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 3: So I'm happy and wait until next year, I think.

119
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: As well, said Bronco sixty. Appreciate the call man, thanks

120
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: for listening. Back to the phones. And Frank in Texas

121
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: is up next?

122
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 2: What's up?

123
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: Frank?

124
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 6: Hey Ryan, this one's gonna stink for a while. Yeah,

125
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 6: no doubt anyway, but a couple points, one point in

126
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 6: one question, I would wonder like, I mean, this has

127
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 6: been talked about already, but I mean, to me, drank

128
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 6: May was kind of struggling during the game. Looked like

129
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 6: he was lacking some confidence. I just think, if you know,

130
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 6: they kicked the field goal there, I would like to

131
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 6: have seen what would happened.

132
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 7: In that situation.

133
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 6: But if they're gonna go for it, I would have

134
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 6: liked a better play call in that situation me too.

135
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 7: The other thing I was going to ask is what

136
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 7: do you think they'll do with that dead cat money

137
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 7: from coming off from Russ. You think that we need

138
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 7: a true wide receiver number one or do you think

139
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 7: we can get by with what we have.

140
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: I'd like to Yeah, Frank, I like, I appreciate the call.

141
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: I'd like I'd like to invest more in that room.

142
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: And it's not to say that I don't believe the

143
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: Broncos have the was a talent to compete there.

144
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 2: But you see what happens when you have a true

145
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: number one.

146
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 1: I mean, let's take this game tonight that we're watching

147
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: the Sea Seahawks and La Rams. Now they both have

148
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: good defenses, no doubt about that, but they had two

149
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: wide receivers. The Seattle Seahawks and the LA Rams each

150
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: have a wide receiver that went over seventeen hundred receiving

151
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: yards this year, JSN and Puka Nakua. Between those two guys,

152
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: each of them over seventeen hundred receiving yards.

153
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: What does that do for this team? Now, you think

154
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 2: about it.

155
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: In terms of the Broncos having all these close wins,

156
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: but then you drop that into the equation and what

157
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: does that do for some of those games that maybe

158
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: shouldn't have been that close. And if you have one

159
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: of those true wide receiver ones and you have him

160
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: opposite Corland Sudden and then you mix in rotation of

161
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: the rest of the guys, that seems like a big upgrade,

162
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: and it seems like an upgrade that's desperately needed in

163
00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: my opinion.

164
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: To the phones and Mark for cons what's up?

165
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: Mark?

166
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 4: How you doing?

167
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: I'm doing great? How are you good?

168
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 8: I'm good?

169
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: Hey?

170
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 5: First of all, what what? What?

171
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 8: How do you?

172
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 5: Bottom line? The the not going for it on that

173
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 5: field goal was horrible. It was it was you have

174
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 5: to manage we're in So my why wondering here is

175
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 5: did Sean Payton did you look at the weather force?

176
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 5: It has to come up? You you I'm sitting here

177
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 5: going kick the field goal? You have to know the

178
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 5: winner's coming up? Did he look at that? And then

179
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 5: why do they explain.

180
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 9: That to me?

181
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: Well, you know, we we played the sound bite of

182
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: him earlier where he felt as though the defensive played

183
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: at such a comisser a level that he felt like

184
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: he could be aggressive there, and he thought being up

185
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: fourteen to nothing, especially knowing the weather was coming, was

186
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: a more significant advantage than being up ten nothing.

187
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: I thought, that's that is.

188
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 5: That is a horrible reason why you say that he

189
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 5: should have kicked a field goal.

190
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 8: We know this.

191
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 5: I'm a coach. I've coached for twenty five years. And

192
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 5: you take the point, especially in a playoff game, you

193
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 5: take the points. Why would you not do that?

194
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: Well, again, that's his reasoning. He gets paid twenty million

195
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: a year to come up with that reason. So that's

196
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: that's his call.

197
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 5: Wrong. Should he be our coach?

198
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: Yes, he should definitely be our coach. The Broncos are

199
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 1: in this position without Sean Payton.

200
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 5: Oh, and explain to me why that the Broncos I

201
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 5: am not I don't understand why people think that it's

202
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 5: okay losing this game was not good.

203
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I don't know anybody that's going

204
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: to say it was good. Mark.

205
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 5: We should we should have never lost this game. We

206
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 5: Sean Payton's this opposite guru and he makes a mistake

207
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 5: like that in a game this critical. I think he

208
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 5: should be fired.

209
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: Don't you think it's a little hyperbolic? Mark?

210
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 5: Oh, I don't think so. I don't think so. I'm

211
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 5: a coach. Would you make in a position on this

212
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 5: time of this critical point of game, an AFC championhip

213
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 5: game against the NEWI of Pats who we know who

214
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 5: are a damna or you know, he should be fired.

215
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 5: I would fire. If I are the parents, I'd fire him.

216
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 5: It was a horrible mistake. Horrible mistake.

217
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: Okay, Mark, I can tell you frustrated. I don't think

218
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: he should be fired, but you certainly are are going

219
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: to be watching those kinds of decisions.

220
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 2: Once again, I understand the argument for it.

221
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: I didn't coach, or I'm not a coach, Mark, I

222
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: don't know what you coach, but I'm not a coach.

223
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: But I'd say that No, I would not fire Sean

224
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: Payton based on this game. And I do think his

225
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: offensive prowish his is a big reason why the Broncos

226
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: were in this position this year. I legitimately think that

227
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: and some of his designs, the things he was able

228
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: to give to bow Knicks as answers to the test

229
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,719
Speaker 1: at times when he wasn't playing in his highest capability,

230
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: it really matters. And I think they win this game

231
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: with bo Nicks. I think that last drive. You think

232
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: about it in terms of that last drive where the

233
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: Broncos offense got the ball back with three minutes in

234
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: five seconds to anybody out there, how many times have

235
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: the Broncos been in that situation this year?

236
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 2: Including this last week against the Buffalo Bills.

237
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: Nearly identical situation, maybe a little bit more time, and

238
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: bo Nicks executes a brilliant drive to either win them

239
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: the game or put them in his position to tie

240
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: the game. Now, unfortunately this case, on second down, Jared

241
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 1: Stenham had to be aggressive end up throwing the interception.

242
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: So Mark, in fairness to you and and people out

243
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: there that are frustrated by Sean Payton and the way

244
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: this this game played out, I'd say that if he

245
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: had his starting quarterback, we probably would have seen a

246
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: different result, and your frustrations and some of the other

247
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: one frustrations coming in about Sean Payton would have likely

248
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: been well just not there, because they would have found

249
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: a way to win this game the.

250
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 2: Fourth and one.

251
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: Like I said, we we can disagree with that, I said,

252
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: I tweeted out I think they should go for it.

253
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: But I'm not a coach, so maybe I'm wrong.

254
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: Is it da that that that the name here in

255
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,680
Speaker 1: Phoenix is that Shannon? I want to make sure I

256
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: got I'm not I see Okay, might be Dan.

257
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 2: Or this this Dad in Phoenix.

258
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 10: No, this is Dave.

259
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 7: Dave.

260
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: Oh we you know we were over two, Dave? Sorry

261
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: about that?

262
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 10: How are your mother.

263
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 11: Said there'd be days like this? Okay, here's my take.

264
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 11: I've seen every Bronco playoff game in the franchise history,

265
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 11: which started seventeen years end of the franchise, but this

266
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 11: was easily the most frustrating loss in the playoffs I've

267
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 11: ever experienced, and that includes the Super Bowl because the

268
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 11: ones I lost, they weren't that good, not good enough

269
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 11: to win. And I'm gonna take a thirty thousand foot

270
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 11: view after I say this. The game came down to

271
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 11: two plays. Terrible decision by Stidham, just take the sack

272
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 11: and fall down and put the ball away. And then secondly,

273
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 11: Sean should have taken the points on a bad weather day.

274
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 11: Now take the thirty thousand foot view. They're in this

275
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 11: position because of Sean Payton. And if anybody would have said,

276
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 11: anybody in Denver, any Bronco fan, would you take the

277
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 11: final four in football this year at the start of

278
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 11: the season, there ain't a Bronco fan out there that

279
00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 11: wouldn't have said, yes, this team overachieved and that's Sean Listen.

280
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 2: I think that's a great take. I really do.

281
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 11: And by the way, I'm a retired coach.

282
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: There you go. Okay, did you agree with you degree

283
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 2: with Mark?

284
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 11: He should be fired? The people saying he should be fired,

285
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 11: do you want to go back to what you just

286
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 11: went through for ten years? I can't believe that crap.

287
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 9: Anyway.

288
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 11: I watch every game from my home in Phoenix. I've

289
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 11: been living here now for forty years, and I got

290
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 11: to tell you I'll never, ever, ever, ever be a

291
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 11: Cardinal fan because it's an incompetent organization and the people

292
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 11: should be thrilled to have the Waltons in charge because

293
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 11: they're doing a fantastic.

294
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 2: Job, perfectly said, thank you man, appreciate it. Yeah.

295
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: No, Sean Page should not be fired. He he's a

296
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: great head coach. Now you know, some of his temperament stuff,

297
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: like some of the trash talking and all that.

298
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that's whatever.

299
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 12: I know.

300
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 2: Fans don't even care about that part.

301
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: By the way, the Seahawks going to touchdown, the Rams

302
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: went right back down the field with DeVante Adams a

303
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: couple of huge catches and now just caught a touchdown.

304
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: We're going back and forth here with the Rams and

305
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. This game's really really good.

306
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 2: Seahawks though, are.

307
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: Going to be leading twenty four to twenty with ninety

308
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: one remaining in the third quarter. But really fun game

309
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: so far here in the NFC Championship game. Like I said,

310
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: two very high quality teams. I picked the Rams, but

311
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: this one feels like it go either way. I like

312
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: the texts reacting to Mark Mark coaches public speaking. Is

313
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: Mark from Fort Collins throwing his name and they had

314
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: for Broncos head coach. Kind of felt like it kind

315
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: of felt like Mark was there was a plea there

316
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: from Mark to the Walton Penners.

317
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: Hopefully they're listening right now. Text I am a coach.

318
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: That was pretty great. Ryan's so good dealing with callers

319
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: who are ignorant or have had too much alcohol. Both well, listen,

320
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: he's frustrated, So okay, yeah, man, I again loud to

321
00:15:59,160 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: be frustrated.

322
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 2: I think there's a little bit of a I don't know.

323
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: We have to we have to kind of keep our

324
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: feet in reality. Sometimes it's a little difficult, though, Mark

325
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: and Westminster, You're up next year on Broncos react three

326
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: on three seven, three, eighty five, eighty five.

327
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 2: What's up, Mark?

328
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 5: How you doing?

329
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 2: I'm doing great, man, Thanks for hanging on good.

330
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 11: I'm not like anything of the other Mark.

331
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 13: So just putting that out there.

332
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: That's all right. I'm not gonna judge. I'm not gonna

333
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: judge you based on other marks.

334
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: Go ahead.

335
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, I did coach, but outside of that anyway, just

336
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 13: a couple of things. One of the things I got

337
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 13: on was the running backs not hitting these holes fast

338
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 13: enough to standing back there waiting.

339
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 10: That got me.

340
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 13: And you had talked about the having that number one

341
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 13: wide receiver. It seems like we week to week we

342
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 13: have that one receiver and then we go away from

343
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 13: him the next week. There's no continuity in it, you know.

344
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 13: We don't have two or three games where we have

345
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 13: one receiver that sticks out. It goes back to somebody

346
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 13: else or and then the tight ends. We every year

347
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 13: we go through tight ends like their candy and we

348
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 13: can't find one. But we always emphasize on needing a

349
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 13: tight end, but we don't use them. So I think

350
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 13: it tight ends in this league. You gotta have a

351
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 13: tight end.

352
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some truth to that, and some frustration with

353
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: like you bringing Evan Ingram in the off season, and

354
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll see what he ended up with as

355
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: far as overall you know, stats, but it wasn't the

356
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: stat line that I thought.

357
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: I thought he was going to have an opportunity.

358
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 1: He was healthy all season, right, he played every single week,

359
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: and Evan Ingram ended up with Oh hold on, I

360
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: got a I had the postseason scores, but it wasn't

361
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: a great stat line in the end for Evan Ingram.

362
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: He had fifty receptions for four hundred and sixty one yards.

363
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: It felt like he could easily add it into our

364
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen to twenty receptions and at least another few

365
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: hundred yards. But you know, again, you just en ended

366
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: up utilizing him. Meanwhile, Corla Sudden seventy four catches for

367
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: a thousand yards.

368
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: That's great.

369
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a very good season from Courtland Sudden.

370
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 1: Your next closet receiver was seven hundred and nine yards,

371
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: So you know, you drop another one thousand yard receiver

372
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: in there, and what does that do for the offense.

373
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: What does that do for the way that you can

374
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: attack teams? And again, I'm not saying it's the only thing.

375
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 1: It just is one thing. It's just something that I

376
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: feel that matters, that's all.

377
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

378
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 13: I think they got to get the running backs figured out.

379
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 9: Yep.

380
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 11: So that's all I got for you all.

381
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Yeah, JK. Dobbins.

382
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: You know, we go down what week eleven, he's still

383
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,880
Speaker 1: finished with more rushing yards than any other running back

384
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: and buy like two hundred and thirty. It's seven hundred

385
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: and seventy two rushing yards to R. J. Harvey's five

386
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: point forty nearly identical carries. By the way, Yeah, the

387
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: running back has got to be got to be a focus,

388
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it'll be a big discussion point for

389
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: a lot of Broncos fans. Three oh three seven one, three,

390
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: eighty five eighty five five six six nine zero Ka

391
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: way Commaspred'll text, So let's get one.

392
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 2: We're calling.

393
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 8: Now?

394
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: Is this Kippy?

395
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 8: Is that? Is that right?

396
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: Okay?

397
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:58,320

Speaker 9: It'sipy. I'm not a coach. What's shake? And Ryan?

402
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 2: Much?

403
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 15: Man?

404
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. Listen.

405
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: We had a streak there. We had a streak of

406
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 1: like three or four callers in a row that we're

407
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: all coaches.

408
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 2: So you broke the street. But I'm happy to have

409
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 2: you on.

410
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 9: Thanks for having me. I agree with a few callers earlier,

411
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 9: not that one, Mark, but you know, gosh, if somebody

412
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 9: said to me at the beginning of season, we're going

413
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 9: to have home field advantage for the AFC Championship game,

414
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 9: I would have taken out without thinking twice. I mean,

415
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 9: everybody is so excited, you know, the future of the

416
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 9: Broncos is really I mean, the trajectory is so positive

417
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 9: and we're just going to get better. I'm excited about

418
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 9: this team. I will say, though, like you know, we

419
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 9: were right there still, he had us right there today.

420
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 9: I mean, gosh, if we just make a field goal

421
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 9: or two, we're just you know, we're talking about San Francisco,

422
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 9: aren't we very much?

423
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 2: Yes, very much. And that part is again, you know,

424
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: we had a couple of callers earlier.

425
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: You know, when you're that close, you're three points away,

426
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: there's going to be just a lot of like what

427
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: could have been or should have been kind of moments,

428
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: And yeah, you missed, you missed a couple of field goals.

429
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: The weather conditions weren't great. You had one blocked, you

430
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 1: had a backup quarterback. There's a multitude of reasons why

431
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 1: you find yourself here. None of it matters because you

432
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: didn't You didn't end up doing it, and you didn't

433
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: up getting in there.

434
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 2: But it feels like a missed opportunity, no doubt about that.

435
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: That being said, if we're being honest, Kippie, just for

436
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: a second, if we're being honest, yes, this team with

437
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: Jared Steadham, and again, I would have probably talked myself

438
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: into over the course of two weeks that they could

439
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: be better. But I just don't see them beating you

440
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: the Seahawks of the Rams. I'm sorry. Like, like I'm

441
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 1: sitting here watching this game. These two teams are moving

442
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: up and down the field and they look extremely dangerous.

443
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 9: It would have been a tall task. I completely agree

444
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 9: with you. But you know, I will say going into

445
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 9: this game, I felt relatively confident. I mean, still had

446
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 9: a great preseason. Sean pan Ham picked him. He's well

447
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 9: liked in the locker room. You know, he's got great

448
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 9: rapport with the players, and if Sean believes in them,

449
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 9: I believe in Sean, and I was totally fine with

450
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 9: how today went. It didn't bounce our way today, but

451
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 9: it's okay. They tried really hard and you can't blame anybody.

452
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 9: It was a team to feed and the better team

453
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 9: won today.

454
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 2: Well side, Kippi, thank you for the call. I appreciate it.

455
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 2: And it's tough thing sort of like to say right

456
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 2: to say that the better team won because I.

457
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: Actually think the Broncos are a better team and if

458
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: they had bo Nicks, I think they win this game.

459
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,159
Speaker 2: But Patriots were a good team this year, not a

460
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 2: great team, but a good team.

461
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 1: They're probably a little bit of ahead of schedule, but

462
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: some people thought the Broncos were a little head of schedule.

463
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 2: AFC was a weird year, and I'm sure there's.

464
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: Some Broncos fans out there that feel like missed opportunity

465
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: because there was no josh Alan mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Joe

466
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: Burrow in front of you anymore. Like to be at

467
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: this position with not having to face those quarterbacks felt

468
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: like a gift, felt like an opportunity that you didn't

469
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: want to pass up on. But once again, I feel

470
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: as though if you're gonna be one of the best,

471
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: and you want to be considered one of the best, teams.

472
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to play the best teams. I thought

473
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Personally me, I thought the Buffalo Bills

474
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: were the best team remaining in the AFC. When the

475
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: Broncos played them last week, I felt as though, with

476
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: the home field advantage, the Broncos were in a very

477
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: good position to beat the Patriots. And I'm not calling

478
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: them fro as. I'm just saying that I felt like

479
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: the Broncos were the better overall team. You got some

480
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: bad luck there with your quarterback, maybe some bad luck

481
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: today with the weather mixed with the quarterback thing, the

482
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: fourth and one aside, there was just some thing stacked

483
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: against you. And hopefully it'll teach you to appreciate those

484
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: moments as a team, not the fan base, as a

485
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 1: team when you get there next year. Five six six

486
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: nine zero our Kaikomas Spirit health text line. The most

487
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: frustrating Llen playoffs was against Jacksonville here at home. Anybody

488
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 1: old enough to remember that should feel that way. That's

489
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: how I feel still to this day. That was the

490
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: most frustrating loss. Uh Okay, you know, I tell you what.

491
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: We got to take a quick break. We'll get some

492
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: more of your calls eron, I see you hanging on.

493
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: I get another caller on.

494
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 8: Hold.

495
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 2: We'll it's to nine o'clock and.

496
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna continue to update you throughout the evening here

497
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: on the NFC Championship game. I'm Ryan Edwards. Broncos React

498
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: is presented by Exfinity. Imagine that we'll bright back.

499
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 2: Like I said, r J. Harvey had a good season.

500
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: I was very impressed with how he played, especially being,

501
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 1: you know, an option in some of those short passes.

502
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 2: Broke a lot of tackles.

503
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: I think that'll be interesting to see what he's broken

504
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: tackle and mistackle rate will be when everything is said

505
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: and done. Welcome back to Broncos React, presented by Exfinity.

506
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: Imagine that Kodiak Building Partners teamed up with Garrett Bowles

507
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: and his GB three Foundation for seventy two to charity

508
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: for every Denver offensive point. Kodiak Building Partners, through its

509
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: Kodiak Foundation, donates seventy two dollars to number seventy twos

510
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: GB three foundations supporting Colorado children, families, and veterans in need.

511
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: Today seven offensive points for a solo five hundred and

512
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: four dollars brought us to a grand total on the

513
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: season of thirty thousand, seven hundred and forty four dollars.

514
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: What a season.

515
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: Garrett was tremendous, by the way, just want to throw

516
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: that out there if you missed Garrett during the season

517
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: on KWI Sports on Tuesdays. He was sensational and I

518
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: really hope we get a chance to do that again

519
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: next year. I don't know if I'll have him on

520
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: this week. I don't know what kind of the deal

521
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 1: we have, but if we do, great, But he was

522
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: just unbelievable.

523
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 2: What a great season.

524
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Pro Bowl, All Pro and it was a

525
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,719
Speaker 1: must listen interview every Tuesday at three o'clock. A lot

526
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: of credit to him. Passer Tain was phenomenal too. He

527
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,919
Speaker 1: was another guy we consistently have. I got to give

528
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: you a shout out to the Broncos p are who

529
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: help us as well getting a spotlight player on Thursday.

530
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: They were all wonderful, I mean just consistently, consistently professional,

531
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: very good at their job.

532
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 2: We're very lucky here in Denver. And you know it

533
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: sounds like.

534
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: Just going over the top here, Well, we're very lucky

535
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: in Denver to have not only the wonderful ownership group

536
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: that we have, but also the incredible Broncos staff that

537
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: works so well with the Broncos media and really tries

538
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 1: to accommodate as much as they can. And it's a

539
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: tough job. It's definitely a tough job to find that balance,

540
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,479
Speaker 1: but they do a wonderful job at it. The Rams

541
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks. Seahawks are up thirty one to twenty

542
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: with four to forty five remaining in the third quarter.

543
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 1: Both quarterbacks have looking They look phenomenal. Sam Darnold nineteen

544
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: twenty seven for two hundred and ninety one yards and

545
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: three touchdowns.

546
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: Sensational.

547
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 1: And meanwhile, Matthew Stafford, who is now got the Rams

548
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 1: to midfield or a forty eight yard line, He's got

549
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty one passing yards and two touchdowns.

550
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,880
Speaker 1: Neither quarterback has thrown an interception. It's a fun game.

551
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: Fun game, all right, we go. Let's go back to

552
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: the text line for a second.

553
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 2: Ryan.

554
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: Something under the radar in this game is how Minors

555
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: got owned in a couple of very critical plays. He's

556
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: a very good player, but it seems to have major lapses,

557
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: not the first time this season, despite being an All Pro. Yeah,

558
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: there was a couple of times I noticed that and

559
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 1: not used. We're not used to seeing that, So I

560
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 1: do wonder if there's something he's he's dealing with. But yeah,

561
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: Quinn Minors had a couple of times, not only in

562
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: this game but this season for sure. But I still

563
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: believe in his talent overall. I still believe in the

564
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: offensive line overall. But there's some things to clean up,

565
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: as there almost always will be Ryan awesome job all year.

566
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: So many players as well as Sean have talked about

567
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: this team being so close knit. Obviously the roster will

568
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: be different next season. What contributors do you see moving

569
00:26:56,320 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: on after today? Well, I think JFM is probably going

570
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: to be moving on, which is unfortunate because he's been really,

571
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: really good for this team. They gave Malcolm Roach, DJ Jones,

572
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: Zach Allen all contract extensions, so those guys are obviously

573
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: going to be back.

574
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 3: Uh.

575
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think off the top of my head.

576
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if Alex Singleton will be back. We'll see,

577
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: I lean know at the moment, especially because you brought

578
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: in dra Greenlaw and he's definitely going to be here

579
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: next year. Justin siRNA would like to see brought back.

580
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: I could see him being brought back in another one

581
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: year contract. You got to continue to develop talent there.

582
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: An inside linebacker Brandon Jones. I don't know for sure

583
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: on him. I believe he's got one more year lessons contract,

584
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: but we'll see. You got a restrict a free agent

585
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: there with j Kwan. I hope he comes back. I'd

586
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: certainly like to see him come back. But you did

587
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: to spend a first round pick on a defensive back.

588
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: Riley Moss is in the final year of his rookie contract.

589
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 1: Obviously he's her tands back and Hufanga is back offense.

590
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: I do think left guard is probably within powers. That

591
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: might be something where you say we'll look at other options. Yeah,

592
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: that come guys come to mind. I mean Adam Troutman maybe,

593
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if that if we're

594
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: you know, that level, but that those are those are

595
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: the main guys. But again, a lot of guys coming back,

596
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 1: A lot of guys coming back for this team.

597
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 2: A great show.

598
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: Ryan not easy on and I like tonight. I do

599
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: understand what Sean was thinking when he went for it

600
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 1: on fourth and one in the first quarter. He knows

601
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: that the weather is going to be really hard to

602
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: score in offensively in the second half, so he's trying

603
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: to furnload as many points as he can in the

604
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: first half. So I still don't necessarily fault him for

605
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: going for it there, but I do fault him for

606
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: the terrible play call. You don't take the ball away

607
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: from the line of scrimmage four or five yards on

608
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: fourth and one. In that situation, you have to just

609
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: quarterback sneak it and keep it close to the centers

610
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: button push forward.

611
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 2: This ja from Northwest Arkansas. Yeah, I didn't like to

612
00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: play call either.

613
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: When we get we don't get paid to make those calls,

614
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: but we get a chance to critique them after the fact.

615
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: You know, everybody's going to be upfield in a hurry

616
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: trying to stop the runs, so you're thinking maybe you

617
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: get them kind of diving into the middle of the

618
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: offensive line and then you can sneak out with your

619
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 1: quarterback on a boot. It's obviously what they were thinking.

620
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: It didn't work out, but that's again, you know, you

621
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: make those calls and it didn't work out. You got

622
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: your backup quarterback in there. Maybe you're I don't know,

623
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: maybe you're trying to show off a little bit. I

624
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: don't really know, but ultimately it was a missed opportunity.

625
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: There's no denying that fact. I said from the beginning.

626
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: I'll be consistent. I thought going for it made sense.

627
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 1: There will be a lot of hot take radio guys

628
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: and people on Twitter and otherwise that are going to

629
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: say that I don't know what I'm talking about, including

630
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: that guy Mark they called in earlier, who's a coach

631
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: by the way, in case he didn't tell you, this

632
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: is a good one. Kippy looking for his name in

633
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: a spinning racket, a souvenir named license plate on vacation

634
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: and coming up fifty hand, then that might be a

635
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: nickname for you know, I don't know if like it's

636
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: his official name, like I didn't gets just ask Kippy

637
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: if this is official name. But we've all been there, right,

638
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: We've all been there. We're on vacation. You look up

639
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: your own name and you go, oh, there are there.

640
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: I am right there, Ryan Shannon. You know those names

641
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: are relatively common. Kippy probably not the most common souvenir

642
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: licensed plate name.

643
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 2: But it might be a nickname. So I yours is

644
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 2: always pig Shannon.

645
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: But you like pink, You're you're okay with hey Man,

646
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: Pink is good color, sunrise sunsets, you know those kinds

647
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: of things. Ryan, Jeff and Maine here you've might go

648
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: to listen every week. I just want to say thank

649
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: you for your work, especially after losses. Not a hot take,

650
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: but the only one who's just a little happy to

651
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: not be in the super Bowl in the office. When

652
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: Bo went down, my heart broke. So I'm good with

653
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: our first rate effort. I felt like we lost last week.

654
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: Thanks again, Man, and to your team there at KWA two.

655
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 2: Thank you, Jeff. I appreciate It's very kind and yet

656
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 2: you know that's what I'm saying. Like And by the way,

657
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 2: the Rams just scored Poknako. Oh my goodness, this guy's

658
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 2: good four to nine. Wait did they go for it?

659
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 2: They went for it on fourth and twelve. No way,

660
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 2: I think they just went for it on fourth and

661
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 2: twelve and Midfield. That's incredible. Did he hang on to

662
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 2: that he might have.

663
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I know it's gonna be really close.

664
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: I think they went just went for it on fourth

665
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: and twelve. I'm not even kidding at midfield. That's incredible.

666
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: I think, God, it's gonna be really close. Anyways, Sorry,

667
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: just watching this, it's incredible. I mean, this what a

668
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: great time to watch football this time of year. And

669
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: these are two really really good teams, both well deserving.

670
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean to your point, it it felt

671
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: like after losing bone Nicks. And I'll put myself into this.

672
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: I certainly talked myself in over the course of the

673
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: week that Sean Payton and Jared Stidham could work for

674
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: a game or two because he's shown that. He's shown

675
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: that with backup quarterbacks. Now, this is a high I mean,

676
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: this is a high intensity situation with AFC Championship game,

677
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: but he's shown the ability in the past in one

678
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: off moments or maybe even the series of a handful

679
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: of games, like with Teddy Bridgewater James Winston, with backup quarterbacks,

680
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: he can get the most out of them. And I

681
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: do wonder, under relatively normal circumstances, like is in not

682
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: a blizzard in the second half, what this game could

683
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: have looked like, especially as well as that defense was playing.

684
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: We'll never know.

685
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 1: And it did feel like if Bonix was in this game,

686
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: the Broncos absolutely win it. But again, we'll never know.

687
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: All right, back to the phones. Three h three seven one,

707
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,840

708
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, but I'm glad your snowflower works

709

Speaker 1: so well. Oh man, you know, it's like one of

710
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: those things you're like, I ask one more question and

711
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 1: then that happens. Anyways, the Texters got gotta treat there.

712
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 2: Back to the phones. Actually, maybe we'll way to beat.

713
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 2: Do we need a way to beat? Probably?

714
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,800
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Howie, if I go to you, you

715
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: got to keep it clean, man. How Saint Louis? What's up?

716
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:27,480

00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 8: Hey Ryan, how are you?

00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 7: I'm doing going to.

719
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 8: Keep it very clean, Okay. I have nothing to cuss about.

720
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 2: Thank you nothing, thank you.

721
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 8: Nonetheless, I just want to shout out to iHeartRadio and

722
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 8: eighty five K A way. I get to listen to

723
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 8: you guys in Saint Louis before, during, and after the game,

724
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 8: So keeps me way in tune with you guys.

725
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 10: I love you guys, very kind.

726
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 2: Appreciate that.

727
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 8: M so. Being a Broncos fan since eighty six, I

728
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 8: love everything that's been going on. I've been a diehard fan.

729
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 8: This has been one of the greatest years I've had

730
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 8: the longest time ever. Since Bo came into the league

731
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 8: with us, it's been wonderful. He's been exciting, as hell

732
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 8: to watch.

733
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 2: I can say, hell right, yes again, We're good on that.

734
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 8: Okay, It's just been a wonderful season. It really was

735
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 8: heartbreaking to see him go down like he did. I

736
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 8: pretty much felt when we lost him after that that

737
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 8: was kind of the end of our run. I had

738
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 8: hopes and went into this game open minded, but I

739
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 8: didn't think we were gonna go far. And you know what,

740
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 8: the fact that we didn't win without Bow that would

741
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 8: have been kind of different feeling. I know that sounds

742
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 8: kind of weird. I know we wanted to win, but

743
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 8: it'd be weird if we didn't win it without Bo

744
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 8: winning it, you know what I mean.

745
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I heard that. I hear that.

746
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 8: So I just you know, I felt bad, but I'm

747
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 8: very hopeful for the you know, we got a great

748
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 8: future ahead of us. I'm very excited. So even though

749
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 8: we lost, and we lost because we didn't kick that

750
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 8: field goal instead of going for it on fourth down,

751
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 8: which was a weird play by the way, I don't

752
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 8: know why they didn't just run up the middle. They

753
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 8: did that weird play, but I think if they went

754
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 8: for it and got the field goal, I think the

755
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 8: game would have been totally different. But still I don't

756
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 8: think we don't have won the Super Bowl anyway, because

757
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 8: like you said, these other teams I think are well

758
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 8: way better. But nonetheless, it's been a great season and

759
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 8: I'm just happy. So even though we lost, we have

760
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 8: such a bright future. I'm super stoked.

761
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 2: Let's go Broncos, all right, both said man, and thank

762
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 2: you for keeping it clean. Yeah, I'm listening.

763
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,439
Speaker 1: I'm optimist about it too. Today today's stings. There's there's

764
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: no way that we can deny that fact to the

765
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: missed opportunity. And by the way, so it looked like

766
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: with the Puka Nakua touchdown there was a taunting penalty

767
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: by Tarik Woollen on fourth down. They ended up giving

768
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: the Rams a first down and then they scored a

769
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: touchdown on the very next play, so that that's kind

770
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: of what happened. So it is thirty one to twenty

771
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 1: seven Seahawks lead with two minutes left in the third quarter.

772
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: We've got twenty eight points scores so far in this

773
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: third quarter. This is again both really good defenses, but

774
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: the offenses are clearly the story in this one so far.

775
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 1: But again, you see what happens when you have one

776
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 1: of those guys you know I was talking about, you know,

777
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: wide receiver one. Pooka Nakoupa has five catches for one

778
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: hundred and nine yards in a touchdown. Davonte has four

779
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: for eighty nine and he's been a one, So you

780
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 1: have two ones there.

781
00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 2: But what Niakua does for this team is immeasurable.

782
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: And the Jackson Smith and Jubba has nine catches for

783
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty nine yards in a touchdown. They

784
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: had Rashid Shahed who has one catch for fifty one

785
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 1: yards in this game as a compliment too. But they

786
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: also added Cooper Cup in the off season. Not by

787
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: point is that you just need to continue to add there.

788
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 1: And the Broncos absolutely need to be in the mindset

789
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: of buyers when it comes to receiving talent in this offseason.

790
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: There's gonna be very few people, I think disagree with that.

791
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: Back to the phones and Steve Minnesota's up next year

792
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: on Broncos React.

793
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 2: What's up?

794
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 12: Steve?

795
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 15: Yes, Ryan, I'm glad your caller out there in Delaware's

796
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 15: got a snow blower up here. It's too cold to snow.

797
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.

798
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, listen, I visited Minnesota. I was there for

799
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl a few years ago. Uh, we don't

800
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,399
Speaker 1: know nobody in the country, I think, knows what cold

801
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: is compared to Minnesota. That is, that's a new level

802
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 1: that that hurt my lungs to stand outside kind of cold.

803
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 15: Yeah, we have not been above the zero since Thursday

804
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 15: after and it's not going to get any better this week.

805
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 15: But anyways, sorely disappointed in the Broncos today. I was

806
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 15: really hoping, in spite of Bowl going down, our defense

807
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,839
Speaker 15: could pull it out. And I just want to thank

808
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 15: you Rick and Susie and Dave for the great season.

809
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 15: I enjoy listening to you guys every game on my

810
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 15: Alexa and I wish Sean would have went for the

811
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 15: field goal and it's too bad. And the other thing,

812
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 15: I think we need to absolutely bring Alex Singleton back.

813
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 15: That guy is just seems to me like he's a

814
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 15: he's a character and and kind of just rides everybody

815
00:39:56,080 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 15: on that defense really up their game without that where

816
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 15: you're going. Thank you for a great.

817
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 2: Season, Ryan, No, I appreciate that. Thank you very much.

818
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: Steve, and stay warm wherever possible. I mean, it's seven

819
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: degrees here at least that's my watch is telling me.

820
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: So it's pretty cold. But again, Minnesota, that is a

821
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: that is another level of cold that I've never experienced. Yeah,

822
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,880
Speaker 1: you know, Alex, I'm a big fan of Alex Singleton,

823
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: and I absolutely would be into a conversation about that.

824
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 1: But I also see the other side of it, especially

825
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: in coverage at times. I think his leadership is immeasurable.

826
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: But I want to say, he's thirty three years old,

827
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 1: So there's arguments really on both both ends of that.

828
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: I'd say that it's something to talk about, but I

829
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 1: would want to continue to invest there if that makes sense,

830
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 1: especially considering Drake Greenlaw's inability to stay on the field

831
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: for starting reps right He's a rotational guy right now,

832
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: so you need you need more there.

833
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 2: That's it.

834
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: So if Drake green Law, if you feel like Drake

835
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 1: green Law can start and stay on the field, and

836
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,879
Speaker 1: you compare him with say Justin Sternad or somebody else,

837
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: then I'm in for that argument or the conversation. I

838
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,399
Speaker 1: just don't know if that's that's realistic at this point

839
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 1: five six six nine zero. Our Kai Comma spirital text line,

840
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: Riot's really cold, said different word there. It sucks out here.

841
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,399
Speaker 1: To be careful, be careful driving home. Very excited about

842
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: the Broncos moving forward. Sean, the Penners will bring us

843
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: back to the championships. I'm convinced of that. I am

844
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 1: as well. I'm in Delaware. Enjoy listening to your post game.

845
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: That's from Craig. Thank you, Craig. I appreciate that. Ryan,

846
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: there was taunting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so I saw that.

847
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah with it with three Q one Yeah, fourth and

848
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,280
Speaker 1: twelve became first down because of the taunting.

849
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 2: Thank you.

850
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 11: Yeah.

851
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 1: Sorry, guys, you know, doing the show and glancing up

852
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: as we do it, but thank you. I appreciate that.

853
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: We need City not to make the big mistake.

854
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 2: He made it.

855
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: The fumble was horrific. He looked panicked under pressure all game.

856
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 1: Great season though.

857
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:55,359
Speaker 2: I love this team.

858
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: I love the progress over the last three years. Can't

859
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: wait till next year. I mean, yeah, that's what you want,

860
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 1: but I mean again, it's your backup quarterback. So I

861
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: think as we tend to say, multiple things can be true.

862
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: You'd like to see those kinds of things. But the

863
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: speed of the game, this is when it shows up

864
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: and it's the AFC Championship game. I did see some

865
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 1: stuff about the Patriots talking trash about our Broncos offensive line. Okay,

866
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: easy there. You guys had one of the easiest paths

867
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl in history. I'm sorry, I'm I'm

868
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 1: not gonna all of a sudden if you're gonna pound

869
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: your chest on that you, I don't know whatever. Back

870
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: to the phones. Let's get one more calling before we

871
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,439
Speaker 1: take quick break. John in North Carolina, what's up, John?

872
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 2: How are you?

873
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 9: Man? Man?

874
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 12: I'm doing pretty good. Ryan, I don't know. Me and

875
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 12: Shan Scott we're talking. Maybe it's Benjamin Albright's fault. You

876
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 12: know he picked the Broncos today he did.

877
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he messed everything up.

878
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 8: I agree, he messed everything up today.

879
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:53,919
Speaker 4: Man.

880
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 12: Man, I've been listening to the show all year, as

881
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 12: you know I do. I love to show my high

882
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 12: salute the KOWA Radio. Shannon Scott, you, Benjamin Alright, Logan everybody,

883
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 12: you guys do an incredible job and have all year.

884
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 12: I'm not gonna say anything that somebody else that and

885
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 12: already said.

886
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:18,400
Speaker 11: I kind of agree.

887
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 12: You know, the field goal was not taking the field

888
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 12: goal there was kind of suspect, but then the play call,

889
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 12: I mean the throwing the pass. I mean, like the

890
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 12: other callers said, just run it. You know, we had

891
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,760
Speaker 12: some drop passes by some guys that normally catch them today.

892
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:38,319
Speaker 12: But the weather I think affected the second half, as

893
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 12: everybody knows.

894
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 13: But I mean what a ride.

895
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 12: I mean, if you'd have told a lot of Bronco

896
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,959
Speaker 12: fans back in August and September that, hey, you're gonna

897
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 12: host the AFC Championship game. What a quarterback you've had

898
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 12: for two years and you're gonna be you know, fifteen

899
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 12: and three.

900
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 4: When you do that.

901
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 12: And just have incredible game comeback on the road against

902
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 12: Philly and I flew out to the Giants game. What

903
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 12: an emotional Broncos react postgame show you had.

904
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 14: When I was in Denver for that game, I mean, what.

905
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 12: An emotional post game show that was. What a great

906
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 12: comeback When that was I was at the Washington game,

907
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 12: Benito knocked it down at.

908
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 13: The last second.

909
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:32,240
Speaker 12: Just Kansas City. We just whipped their ass twice in Dallas.

910
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:37,479
Speaker 12: I mean, we're relevant again, Ryan, and I'm glad we're back.

911
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 12: I hate that we didn't grab a hold of the

912
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 12: opportunity we had, but I'm also proud we got some

913
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 12: great pieces and we got we definitely have a quarterback,

914
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 12: and I'm like you, I hope as a North Carolina guy,

915
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 12: we can keep that ja Kui McMillon with us, and somehow,

916
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 12: some I'd love to keep our defensive coordinator if there's

917
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:03,720
Speaker 12: any way possible.

918
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,240
Speaker 8: But anybody, love you and what a great season.

919
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 2: Love you too, man. I appreciate the call, Thank you

920
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 2: very much.

921
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: And you know again, I like this community that we

922
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,640
Speaker 1: have for a multitude of reasons, but I should love

923
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,440
Speaker 1: talking to you guys after every single game. Three h

924
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 1: three s one, three, eighty five, eighty five, five six, six,

925
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: ninety zero. And again Jaquon, I man, it'd be tough

926
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: for me to say good bye to him. I'll be

927
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 1: interested to see what kind of tender they put on

928
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: him as a restrictive free agent, or maybe you just

929
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: pay him. It's an interesting discussion, right because you draft

930
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: the first round corner defensive back and John Ay Barron

931
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,439
Speaker 1: and you want to get him on the field. Same time,

932
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: Ja Kwon became just one of your like rock solid

933
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 1: bricks this year in my opinion, so I'm all for

934
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 1: having the extra talent and depth.

935
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,880
Speaker 2: In the secondary. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

936
00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: The Seahawks got into Rams tear itt and they're facing

937
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:03,879
Speaker 1: a fourth and tent at the Rams forty four. See

938
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,279
Speaker 1: what they end are doing? Your nice PBu there by

939
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: durrant for the Rams, and we're in the fourth quarter, now,

940
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: twelve twenty four left in the fourth quarter.

941
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 2: We go back to the phones and Chris in clovis,

942
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 2: what's up, Chris? How are you?

943
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 10: How you doing?

944
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: I'm doing great?

945
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 13: How are you okay?

946
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 5: How about yourself?

947
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 2: I'm great, I'm great, Thank you?

948
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 9: Okay?

949
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 10: Great bone? Next in the defensive line and our offensive

950
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:28,720
Speaker 10: line done.

951
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 9: A super great job all year long.

952
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 10: Okay, yep, and Ryan and uh Sean Payton, super good

953
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 10: job of being a coach.

954
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 9: There.

955
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 10: There's a bone I got to pick with you, though,

956
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 10: and it's gonna eat at you the rest of the

957
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 10: season until you start off again next year, okay. And

958
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 10: it's I told him that any time you have a

959
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 10: chance to put up three points, you put up three points,

960
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 10: especially on a playoff game, And that's exactly what's gonna

961
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 10: eat him for the rest of the season until they

962
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,279
Speaker 10: start up next year. Maybe next year he'll listen and

963
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,320
Speaker 10: put up three points. Whenever you've got a chance to

964
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 10: put them up eight and fourth and two at the

965
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 10: eight yard line, kick the damn failed. Go Come on, coach,

966
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 10: you're good, but uh, power, power, power, whatever you want

967
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 10: to call it, you need to do it. You need

968
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 10: to put three points on the board that would have

969
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 10: tied it, and me, who knows what would happen.

970
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:20,359
Speaker 9: In over ten?

971
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,840
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Chris, appreciate that. You know, remarkably, the

972
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 1: Patriots were saddled with a similar situation. They had a

973
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 1: fourth and one inside the ten yard line, and they

974
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: went forward as well. I thought they were short. They

975
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 1: ended up giving them the forward progress on the quarterback sneak.

976
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,240
Speaker 1: If Botix is in this game, I bet they quarterback

977
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: sneak that. Chris, for what it's worth, I didn't love

978
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: to play call, but you also have a backup quarterback

979
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 1: in there, So maybe you're thinking, I'm not gonna QB

980
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,240
Speaker 1: sneak jar stid him under these circumstances.

981
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

982
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,359
Speaker 1: I don't know why I went into that exact play,

983
00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: but a similar situation for the Patriot it's their first

984
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: drive of the third quarter. They marched all the way

985
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 1: down the field and they went four on fourth and

986
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 1: one inside the ten because they had the same mindset, like,

987
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 1: we get to fourteen to seven, this game might be

988
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 1: over and that suffs really in the third quarter, but

989
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,319
Speaker 1: you cauld of see the field conditions and how things

990
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: were headed. That was their mindset. They got super aggressive.

991
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: Now they got bailed out, in my opinion a little bit,

992
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 1: and they still ended up selling for three like all

993
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: things considered, but it would have been fascinating after the fact.

994
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,359
Speaker 1: I wonder if Patriots Radio would have had the same

995
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: kind of feeling, like a lot of people calling in

996
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 1: to their show saying, you should have just kicked the

997
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,120
Speaker 1: field goal, because you ended up getting the fieldal anyways,

998
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 1: a couple of lays later, you had a teller know

999
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 1: whufonga TfL and then a sack by Jonathan Cooper.

1000
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 2: They ended up making them sell for a field goal anyways,

1001
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:50,959
Speaker 2: but if.

1002
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 1: They wouldn't have gotten it there, it'd have been a

1003
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 1: tied seven all and the Broncos would have been driving

1004
00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,800
Speaker 1: right back to the field theoretically, but interesting.

1005
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 2: So Broncos didn't convert a fourth and one.

1006
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 1: Patriots did, and we can look at that as an

1007
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 1: example of why this game worked out the way it did.

1008
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 1: Goose and Littleton, you're up next year on Broncos react

1009
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: with up Goose.

1010
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 4: Yes, my opinion, the Broncos beat themselves. It was two

1011
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 4: guys that not the whole team. Defense was great. Hold

1012
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 4: the Patriots to three points, because that's seven points they had.

1013
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 4: Was the quarterback fault. He should have just take the

1014
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:41,279
Speaker 4: ball and then punded it. So, uh, two guys lost

1015
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 4: that game. Quarterback and the coach, the coach with the

1016
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 4: three pointer, they kicked the field goal and the quarterback

1017
00:49:56,200 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 4: in his head, defense done great, and and they out

1018
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:08,439
Speaker 4: beat the Patriots. They out played, in my opinion, held

1019
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,720
Speaker 4: in the three points that you didn't get that setting pointer.

1020
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 4: That's my opinion.

1021
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Goose, I appreciate that, man, And there's

1022
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 1: certainly an argument.

1023
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 2: To be made there.

1024
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't outplay them in several categories that

1025
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,200
Speaker 1: would have mattered, right. I Mean, if I told you

1026
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 1: that the Broncos lost the turnover margin by two, that's

1027
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 1: I told you that going into the game, you'd say,

1028
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: probably not a good sign. They were out rushed. They're

1029
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 1: out rushed by one seventy nine also not a great sign.

1030
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: And time possession was tilted in the favor of the

1031
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:44,879
Speaker 1: Patriots by.

1032
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 2: Over six minutes. Also not great.

1033
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: So there's many markers that would tell me that the

1034
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 1: Patriots were actually the better team on the field today.

1035
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: But I'd say at halftime it felt like if the

1036
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: Broncos can repeat some of the ways they played in

1037
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: the first half in the second half, they probably would

1038
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 1: have found a way to win.

1039
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 2: But they just couldn't.

1040
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,200
Speaker 1: I meanwhile, the Patriots, they did execute right. They were

1041
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: better in the run in the second half. They were

1042
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 1: They had that flea flicker play that went for thirty

1043
00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,520
Speaker 1: one yards. Drake May ripped off a couple of long runs.

1044
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: I mean, they did play really well today. And I

1045
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: actually I take that back. They didn't play really well

1046
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:24,920
Speaker 1: under the circumstances. They did enough here, and they played

1047
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: not to lose in parts of the second half. I

1048
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 1: don't want to give them that much credit. And sometimes

1049
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: you get rolling downhill and then you just realize that's

1050
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 1: not exactly what I want to say. The uh Seahawks

1051
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 1: still lead the Rams thirty one to twenty seven. We

1052
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 1: got full lines, so we'll get back to those when

1053
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 1: we come back. We'll get back to the text line
