1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: He certainly has given the Broncos a belief that they 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: have what they need in their running game. But I 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,399 Speaker 1: will say that you kind of need a little bit 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: more from your one two Punch had a couple of 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: nice runs from Julia McLoughlin tonight. Seven carries for forty yards, 6 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 1: averaging five point seven. Not too bad, But the running 7 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 1: game is not quite as strong as it was when 8 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: you had JK. 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: Dobbins.

I'll read 19 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: some text here in a minute. But Scott in Denver, 20 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: what's up? 21 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 2: Scott? How are you man? 22 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 3: How am I? This is a Christmas postgame? Ever? It's 23 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 3: pretty incredible. Great show, Ryan, Hey, I appreciate it. 24 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 4: Hey. 25 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a longtime fan and I every year I 26 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: update a book called the NFL. Since nineteen seventy and 27 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 3: I've been around. I've watched the Broncos play on the 28 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 3: road twice, once in Seattle in two thousand and two 29 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 3: after we lost him as division mats, and once in 30 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 3: Buffalo in eighty seven. And there's a weird coincidence I 31 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 3: want to share with the fans out there. So Elway's 32 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 3: rookie year in eighty three. You know, the little deviation 33 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 3: here is Lwa didn't quite start every game in his 34 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 3: rookie year. You know that, right? 35 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: I You know, I probably didn't know that, but it's late, 36 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: so I'll roll with you on it. 37 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 3: Gotcha. So he ends up the season nine and seven. 38 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 3: They are on the road in a wildcard game and 39 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 3: they lose thirty one to seven. Fast forward to last year, 40 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 3: bo Nicks finishes ten and seven, one win more, and 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 3: he goes on the road and he loses the wildcard 42 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 3: game in Buffalo thirty one to seven. 43 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: The exact thing score interesting. 44 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 3: So when I give my talks, I say, what did 45 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: LA do? Win? Total Wise his second year in the league. 46 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 3: You know how many's the top of your head? 47 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 4: Do you want? 48 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, said the last party you broke up. 49 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 3: How many games did La win in year two of 50 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: his career, the first year he started all sixteen as 51 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: a Bronco. 52 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: Oh, okay, now I did. I don't know how many 53 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: did he win? 54 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: He won thirteen? You went thirteen and three? Wow? So 55 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 3: wow what Bo's doing this year? So it's incredible. They 56 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 3: both start rookie seasons ending up on the road in 57 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 3: the wildcard losing thirty one to seven, either in Seattle 58 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 3: or Buffalo, where I've seen him play weirdly. But now 59 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 3: Bose matched John's win total in year two, and now 60 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 3: he might even beat it by by winning, well he 61 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 3: will by winning at home. 62 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 2: I will. 63 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 4: I like it. 64 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 2: So remarkable. 65 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 3: But that's good stuff, Scott, that's pretty awesome. 66 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 2: Huh yeah, that's really cool. 67 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: So heany Scott, I'd like to I'd like to give 68 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: you a fifty dollars gift card to Sam's number three 69 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: and bar. 70 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 2: You live in Dever right, I agree?

And this is the first song we got 82 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 5: to call in, So Milehouse salute from North Alabama. How's 83 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 5: everything going? 84 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 2: It's going great, man, Thanks for calling in. I'm glad 85 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: you did good. 86 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate it. Yeah, the you know, moments of 87 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 5: definitely some frustration tonight, but two and Oga's Chiefs thirteen wins. 88 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: I mean, how can you how can you really be 89 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 5: really be upset? And then I also had this epiphany 90 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: too while I was watching it. I'm also an album 91 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 5: a football fan. It's like Ali going to Auburn. It 92 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 5: doesn't matter. 93 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 3: Most of the time. 94 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 5: When we got to Auburn, they're just trying to ruin 95 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 5: Alabama season. That's kind of what it was tonight. I mean, 96 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 5: you know what I mean, like it, Why would the 97 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 5: Chiefs not be really really excited. Not And you've got 98 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 5: to think too. You tell me you've watched You've watched 99 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 5: a ton of it. Two, how much of the defense 100 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 5: was I don't want to say holding back, but you 101 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 5: know what I mean, Does that make sense? It was 102 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 5: almost like it was a let's get out of here 103 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 5: with a wind. Did you feel that way? 104 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 6: I did? 105 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: And I'll say that, and I know it drives people crazy, 106 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: but I think they kind of do that on both 107 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: sides of the ball at times. 108 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 2: There's a certain amount. 109 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: Like when they played the Raiders at Las Vegas earlier, 110 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: the way they approached that game seemed to be like, 111 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: we don't really believe that you as a team are 112 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: going to be able to beat us. And remember they 113 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: put together really long drives against the Raiders. He's really 114 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: you know, long time consuming drives and people are like, 115 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: why are you not blowing out the Raiders. It's like, 116 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: because we don't have to. We're going to find a 117 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: way to win this game. And I'm not saying they'd 118 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: ever admit to that. It just feels that way right right. 119 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 5: And I do think and I agree with you. I 120 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 5: think you last caller of the call before r J. Harvey. 121 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 5: I've been excited about since draft, since draft day then. 122 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 5: I really thought that he was going to be this 123 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 5: kind of player he needs. We need a complimentary back. 124 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 5: And I don't know if obviously JK. Dobbins has he's 125 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 5: had many years in the league, and he's he's been hurt. 126 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 4: A good bit, yep. 127 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 5: But I really really think we need that, we need 128 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 5: that third down back because because what RJ does, he 129 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 5: puts so much pressure on the defense on first and 130 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 5: second down. But man, when you're when you know, when 131 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 5: it's third and three, you just really want that back. 132 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 5: It's going to be able to get in there, you know, 133 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 5: and and and in r J's he he could be 134 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 5: that guy. But I think the silver lining is right 135 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 5: now is that we're getting to see how good of 136 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 5: a player RJ really is a great to play, so 137 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 5: much more than we thought he was. 138 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, this man, I'm one hundred percent with you. 139 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: And the fact that we are getting this longer look 140 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: at him just to see kind of more of his 141 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: capabilities is a cool opportunity. I mean, certainly, when you're 142 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: playing for something and they are playing for a lot here, 143 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: you'd love to have the complimentary back and maybe you 144 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: get JK. Dobbins back earlier in the postseason than originally expected, right. 145 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: I mean Sean kind of intimated. 146 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: That a little while back that we were all saying 147 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: super Bowl and then he's like, it might be a 148 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: little earlier, but we'll see. But yeah, as you say 149 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: right now, that's certainly as we get to go into 150 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: next year, you're gonna want more in that room. 151 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 2: You have to have more. 152 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 5: One of the players that excited me the most with 153 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 5: RJ was when I think it was in the second 154 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 5: quarter when they when they put him in slot and 155 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 5: he caught that pass behind the line of scrimmage and 156 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 5: I think he ended up getting an eight or nine 157 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 5: our game. That kind of stuff with r J. Man, 158 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 5: the skisble, isn't it? With that guys, it's exciting to see. 159 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 5: And I totally agree with you with the exception of 160 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 5: a few drops from Courtland that's not even a game tonight. Yeah, 161 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 5: So you know, it's it's one of those things. Hey, 162 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 5: you know what thirteen and three. Who is really going 163 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 5: to sit here and complain about thirteen and three? 164 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: Well, there are people that will find a way, But yes, 165 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: you're right, Joe Well. 166 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 5: Of course, of course, of course, like I said, hey man, 167 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 5: this first time I've been able to call in this year. 168 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 5: I've been listening to you all year. Really really enjoy it. 169 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 5: And like I said, Milehouse, salute from North Alabama. 170 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: I appreciate Joe, and I like it and thanks for 171 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: the call man, Very Christmas. I like your cop by 172 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: the way with Auburn Alabama. And again, I've never had 173 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: the the ability to attend one of those games, but 174 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: I've watched them plenty of times, and there's just a 175 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: it's a rivalry. It's always going to be gritty, and 176 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna make it easy on anybody to pay it, 177 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: depending on how banged up or whatever their season looks like, 178 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent with you in this case. Yeah, 179 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs were not and potentially Travis Kelcey's final home 180 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: game as a Chief, they weren't going to just lay 181 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: down and not try to win that game, just weren't. 182 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: And then they had everything to not play for and 183 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: you knew they would still give it. 184 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: The Broncos fits got the dub though. 185 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: Today's game presented by Coloradin's for Responsible Energy Development, developing 186 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: Colorado's energy building Colrad's future.

We're on till midnight tonight. 188 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: Let's get one more call in here, Ellie and A 189 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: roars up next year on Broncos React. 190 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 2: What's up, Ellie. 191 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 7: I love the game and I've been a Broncos fan 192 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 7: since the days of Orange Crush. 193 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 3: John Elway and the Three Egos. 194 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 2: Fantastic didn't let them through. 195 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: The highs and the lows. 196 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 7: But I have a question that I've been curious about 197 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 7: for a long time, and that is I know that 198 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 7: there's always a report given on the condition of the players. 199 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 7: You know, we get nitty griddy about bones broken and 200 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 7: muscles pulled. But one question that I've always wondered about 201 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 7: is pain, because if you fall down that many times, 202 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 7: you're going to have to have a lot of pain problems. 203 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 7: And I never hear how that's dealt with by the 204 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 7: Bold Ghost. Do they get pain medicine before they go in, 205 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 7: after they go in, How do they deal with the pain, 206 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 7: because it seems like you get banged up in these 207 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 7: games from week to week and it would accumulate. 208 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, they do a lot of they do a lot 209 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: of rehabilitation during the week, they do cold tubs, hot tubs, 210 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: They do a lot of work on their muscles, and 211 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, as far as like pain meds go, it 212 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: depends on the injury, I guess. But yeah, I'd say 213 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: just in general, if they just have general soreness, that 214 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: they have trainers, They have people that really. 215 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: Work with these guys over the course of the week 216 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 2: to get them ready. 217 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 7: Well, I guess the reason I'm wondering about is that 218 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 7: I'm a chronic pain impatient and I've had medication and 219 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 7: given to me and it gets rid of the pain, 220 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 7: but it kind of turns me into a zombie. It 221 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 7: doesn't necessarily make me functional. And so when you get 222 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 7: into the world of which I must, they must get 223 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 7: into this world of you know, oxy codde. I don't 224 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 7: know how they function when they're on pain it. 225 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: I don't think they're taking oxy. But there are other 226 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: drugs that they can they can help them out. Ellie, 227 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: thank you so much for the call. And it's an 228 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: interesting question. Like I said, for most of their general 229 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: fatigue and soreness, there's other methods they don't have to 230 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: do the well, they don't have to do the heavy 231 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: drugs like oxy I don't think that they I mean 232 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: that I'm not saying that they don't for for serious injuries, 233 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: but yeah, for the typical stuff, I don't think that's 234 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 1: the case. Three three oh three seven, three eighty five, 235 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: eighty five five six six ninety zeros or ka Kammas 236 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: Spread Health text line. Today's game is presented by Children's 237 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: Hospital call Alado Official Children's Hospital, the Denver Broncos. We'll 238 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: be right back on the KWA Broncos Radio network. On 239 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: its surface, like just listen to that. They was like 240 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: gets the pressure, fobbles the ball, picks it back up, 241 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: completes it to Juju Smith Schuster for a first down. 242 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lot of presence. I gotta be on. 243 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. I think Chris Oliducin as a Olidkin. 244 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 4: Again. 245 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: I keep messing that up because I go for the 246 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 1: street fighter thing. But Chris Olidokin he has some athleticism 247 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: and he's got a pretty decent arm. And again, you're 248 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: behind Patrick Mahomes, You're probably not going to get many 249 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: opportunities unless there's injuries, right, that's why he's playing. But 250 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: tip of the cab man, he hung in there. He 251 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: only took one sack in a game where you're taking 252 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: on the number one defense in the league at getting sacks, 253 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: and maybe there's something to the way the vance Joseph 254 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: played him. I got quite asked a question earlier on 255 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: Twitter about why the Broncos don't seem to be getting 256 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: as many pressures, and I do think that there's something 257 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: to the way they were They've been playing some of 258 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: these teams, and specifically Chris Oladokin. Maybe the mindset was 259 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: more of we'll rush for and we'll drop into coverage 260 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 1: and then make him read the defense, which is actually 261 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: a pretty smart thing to do, except for when he's 262 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: standing back there moving around and finding open receivers, then that. 263 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: Could be a bit of a problem. 264 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: But wasn't a ton of that tonight as the Broncos, 265 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: really dominated by the numbers, dominated this game in more 266 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: than one way.

It was awesome, Like our 294 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 6: whole our whole section by us front, back sides, all Broncos, 295 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 6: all orange. So some of us wind it out, but yeah, 296 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 6: there was quite thirty percent for sure. 297 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 2: I'd say, Wow, that's incredible. I mean you could hear it. 298 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: And then by the end of the game, when the 299 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: Broncos won on the TV as well as the radio copy. 300 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: You could hear let's go Broncos in the background, which 301 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: I can't remember a time that we ever heard that 302 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 1: at Arrowhead. 303 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, yeah it was. It's pretty incredible. I say, 304 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 6: I think we started that. 305 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 2: But you know, whateverbody came in nice. 306 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 4: It was a good time. 307 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: So it was awesome, fantastic.

That'd be a lot of fun. 312 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: It'll be a fan of opposing team, like the Broncos 313 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: in this case, and go to the stadium and just 314 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: see how many of the fans show up. Very cool stuff. 315 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: Five six six nine zero. On the text line from 316 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: Sean in Denver, I think the loss of the Jags 317 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: provided a certain necessary relief. Nick seems so at ease 318 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: with whatever comes his way. We may look back at 319 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: that loss is a necessary pain point to help the 320 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: Broncos win the division hopefully and maybe even more beyond that, 321 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: no matter what, they're a year ahead of schedule. 322 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: Merry Christmas, Shawn and Denver. 323 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: I think it's a great point you bring out there 324 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: Sean and we we kind of said that. 325 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: Last week, just four days ago. It all blends together. 326 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: But last week when they lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 327 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: a lot of Broncos fans called him with a similar 328 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: sentiment and belief that while I still believe in what 329 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: the team is and what they've built, and this is 330 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: a tough loss, but maybe it's a bit of a 331 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: wake up call. 332 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 2: Now. 333 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: When Bo was asked about that the postgame press conference 334 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: last week, he's like, I don't know about wake up call, 335 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: but a refocus maybe. And you know, we're splitting hairs, 336 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: but it's an understanding that you can't just show up 337 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: and expect to win. 338 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: And I do think that that matters. 339 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: And Nick Benito even said the same thing, like he 340 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: said he said he played terrible, and I mean that 341 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: wasn't the word he used, but he said we played terrible, 342 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: and he said he didn't put everything into it that 343 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: he should have. 344 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 2: And that's a good refocus. 345 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: It takes everything you've got, even in a game like 346 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: this tonight, when the Chiefs are playing for nothing and 347 00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: their team is banged up beyond repair. These guys are 348 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: paid professionals and they're gonna go out there and they 349 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: gonna put everything they have into it. And you got 350 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: some guys out there that are playing for great film, 351 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: trying to catch on with other teams or make the 352 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: Chiefs next year, So you're gonna get a good shot now. 353 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: Talent wise, the Broncos should be able to hang in 354 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: there and win this game. And that's what they ultimately did, 355 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: because the Broncos aren't as injured and they are playing 356 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: for more. 357 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: So that's what ultimately bear out. 358 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: But it isn't to suggest, ever that a game is 359 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: given and the Broncos needed to approach this I think 360 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: they ultimately did. I know that people were saying that 361 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: they were flat, and they came out and they didn't 362 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: look like they were as interested. I do think that 363 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: there's some urgency that you wanted to see at times, 364 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: but otherwise they dominated in every single metric of the game. 365 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: They knew they needed this game. There wasn't a sense 366 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: when I was in the locker room earlier this week, 367 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: or even the players I've talked to that they didn't 368 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: understand what was in front of them. They had to 369 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: have this game, and they got it. That's what's important, 370 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: all right. We come back, we will get a scoreboard check. 371 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: We'll tell you what happened earlier today in the other 372 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: two games.

I'll tell you about the 382 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 1: games coming up here this weekend and which ones matter 383 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: to the Broncos Bowls. 384 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 2: Start with earlier. 385 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: Today, the Dallas. 386 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 2: Cowboys all over the Washington Commanders. 387 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 3: Shot got snap Prescott steps up into the pot, fires 388 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 3: down the middle of the field. Let's talking it straight 389 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 3: at the forty, running away. 390 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,959 Speaker 2: From the defense up into the twenty. 391 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 8: The ten touchdown Dallas, come on. 392 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 9: Dake Torpin an eighty six yard touchdown grab. 393 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: That was Jason Horowitz with Westwood one, So Dallas wins. 394 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 2: This won thirty to twenty three. 395 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott nice stat line, three hundred and seven passing yards, 396 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: two touchdowns, took six sacks in the game. This was 397 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: kind of an interesting game in a multiwo ways because, 398 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: first of all, Dallas, Washington and either were. 399 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 2: Playing for anything. 400 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: I liked Dak Prescott's comments though this week because he 401 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,439 Speaker 1: was asked about this game and the fact that they 402 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: weren't they were already eliminated, and he said, hey, I'm 403 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: excited to play on Christmas. I consider it an honor 404 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 1: that we get to play on Christmas. So cool deal. 405 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: They showed up. Dallas also rushed for two hundred and 406 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 1: eleven yards to day Malik Davis, who was taken over 407 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: for Jamonte who got hurt early in the game. 408 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 2: He hit one hundred and three rushing yards. 409 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 1: Like both teams, I mean combining, we're talking about like 410 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: almost four hundred rushing yards. There's a lot of running 411 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: in this one. Jacorey Krossky Merrit had one hundred and 412 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: five rushing yards. 413 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 2: So it was a good game. 414 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,360 Speaker 1: I thought it was more entertaining than I think sort 415 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: of expected. I'm gonna be fascinated to see how the 416 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: NFL numbers relate to the NBA numbers, because historically the 417 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: NBA is kind of the Christmas experience from a sports standpoint, 418 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: But the NFL, they now, they now do a lot 419 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: on Christmas Day. Meanwhile, the Lions and a must win 420 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: game did not. 421 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 10: They motion Addison to the slot and left snap handoff 422 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 10: Addison off the motion thirty. 423 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 9: Five forty outside the numbers forty five to fifty on 424 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 9: the gas pedal down the sideline fifteen to ten. 425 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: Pushed toward the pielte. 426 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 6: Daniel Thomas pushed him in. 427 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: That was Jason Bennetti with Westwood One. This is such 428 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: a weird game. Jared Goff had two interceptions, three fumbles, 429 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: Jamier Gibbs had a fumble. 430 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 2: Five was that? 431 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: Six turnovers from Detroit and a must win game on 432 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: the road versus Minnesota and Max Brosmer. 433 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 2: Check this out. 434 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: Max Brosmer was sacked seven times for minus forty eight 435 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: yards and he only had fifty one passing yards, so 436 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: he had a net of three passing yards, a net 437 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: of three passing yards on offense and you win twenty 438 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: three to ten. It's just but see this is what 439 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: I get into sometimes, Like, first of all, Thursday games 440 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: are weird, but separate that for a second. 441 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 2: The NFL can be weird. 442 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: Okay, Like We've sat here watching this game tonight, and 443 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: I know that if the Broncos would have lost it, 444 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: the frustration would have been palpable. We would have had 445 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: full lines all the way until midnight of people wanting 446 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: to fire this person. 447 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: And cut this person. 448 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: I get it, I get it, But can you imagine 449 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: being a Lions fan after that? I mean Max Brosmer, 450 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: and I I mean this with all due respectcause I 451 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: can't do a fraction of what he can do as 452 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: a professional athlete. 453 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 2: Might be the worst quarterback in the NFL. 454 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: Did you all see Max Brosmer versus the Seattle Seahawks, 455 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: the pick six where he tried. 456 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: To throw it underhanded. Me, come on, and you're the 457 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: Detroit Lions. 458 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: He sacked him seven times and you'll lose by two 459 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 1: touchdowns because Jared Goff just torpedoed himself two picks, took 460 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: five sacks, fumbled the ball three times. 461 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 2: It's bad all around. 462 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: And then he got on I'm gonna rob Saint Brown 463 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: heard at the very I mean, just bad bad, bad bad. 464 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: So Detroit's done. 465 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: Green Bay locked up a playoff spot as a result 466 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: of it. So Saturday, our next two games, big one 467 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: here for the Broncos, Texans, Chargers. That's that's the game 468 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: everybody circling. I mean a lot of these AFC games matter, 469 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: but that one's the one that really matters, because the 470 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: Broncos would lock up the AC west of the Texans 471 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: can go on the road and beat the Chargers. Chargers 472 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: are favored by one and a half. Just get that 473 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: out of the way. The Ravens and the Packers looks 474 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: like Lamar Jackson doubtful for that game. So I think 475 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna see Snoop Huntley in a must win game 476 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: for the Ravens, which is probably not good news. 477 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: No offense. 478 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: Ravens green Bay favorite by four and a half. I 479 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: tip that one to the Packers. Now, the Packers already 480 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: locked up their playoffs. They're they're they're in the playoffs. 481 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: They're seating, though, I think it's gonna be tough for 482 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: them to climb because they're two games back. I think 483 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: actually green Bay is locked into seven. I'm pretty sure 484 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: here because they're nine and five. 485 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 2: Well, I guess. 486 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: They're nine to five and one, So I guess ostensibly 487 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 1: because the Eagles are the three, but the league Eagles 488 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: are gonna win their division, So yeah, I think I 489 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 1: think more or less. Green Bays they're where they're at. Oh, 490 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna try win this game. 491 00:22:58,560 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 2: See what happens. 492 00:22:59,760 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 4: Uh. 493 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 2: Bengals Cardinals, what could have been? I still ruin for 494 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: the Bengals because my guy Grant. 495 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: Brown, Steelers, Titan Saints, Colts, Jags. That one's interesting for 496 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: obvious reasons. That the Colts at home can beat the 497 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. That could help the Broncos with some spacing 498 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: there with that one seed. Jacksonville has the head to head. 499 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: They're eleven and four. They're gonna need to win out, 500 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: Plus they need the Broncos to stub their toe. So 501 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: it's still a lopill climb for them to get to 502 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: the one seed, but they're gonna play for it because 503 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: they have the head to head. 504 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 2: The other one. 505 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: Couple ones here, Jets Patriots. Patriots are thirteen and a 506 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: half point favorites up in New York. 507 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 2: As expected. Panthers Seahawks is a good game. 508 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: Panthers are eight and seven They're atop the NFC South 509 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: right now hosting the Seattle Seahawks, are the number one 510 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: seed in the NFC. 511 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: That could be a really good game. 512 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: Bill's Eagles in the afternoon of Sunday, Bill's favorite by. 513 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: One and a half. 514 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: Not a conference game, but still important in the Sunday 515 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: Night football forty nine Ers Bears eleven and four versus 516 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: eleven and four. That's not something I thought would happen, 517 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: especially with the forty nine Ers and injuries and the 518 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: Bears with a new coaching staff this year. Monday Night's 519 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 1: gonna be Falcons Rams again. Kind of ends consequential for 520 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: us here in Denver. But those are the games coming 521 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,479 Speaker 1: up this weekend. We'll take a very short break. We'll 522 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: be right back on the KA Broncos Radio Network. I'm 523 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Edwards. A congratulations to our winners tonight, Mark Scott 524 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: and Sean They each won a fifty dollars gift card 525 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 1: to Sam's Number three Diner and Bar, presenting sponsor at 526 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: Denver Defense three and Outs. Broncos React gives away three 527 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: fifty dollars gift cards every week to listeners in Denver 528 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: or Bowlders, So we'll have three more to. 529 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 2: Give away next weekend, whenever the Broncos play the Chargers. 530 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: Of course we don't know that yet, still flex scheduling, 531 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: but I imagine, well, maybe we'll. 532 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 2: Have a sense of it after Saturday. 533 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: But that game is gonna matter again, assuming everything doesn't 534 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: break the Broncos way, that game is gonna map or 535 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: at least for the one seed. Maybe the Broncos get 536 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: a little bit fortunate and the Chargers lose to the 537 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 1: Texans on Saturday, that would be phenomenal, But I'd say otherwise, 538 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: the one seed is going to be on the line 539 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: for the Broncos and they're gonna have to play for it. 540 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: We go next on the phones and getting Ronto midnight 541 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 1: three O three seven one, three eighty five eighty five 542 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 1: to Josh and Montana. What's up, Josh, Hey Ryan, how 543 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: are you. 544 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 2: I'm doing great? Thanks for rolling on. 545 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, no problem, say, I'm kind of on the other 546 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 4: side of it all. I would have liked to have 547 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 4: seen the defense go after the young guy. They don't, 548 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 4: you know, we don't force turnovers as it is, which 549 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 4: is shocking with the number of sacks that they have. 550 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 4: It would have been nice to see him go after him, 551 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 4: and mainly because of that last play you just played 552 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,479 Speaker 4: their day's last call. You you mentioned earlier about how 553 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 4: they statistically completely dominated the game, time, possession, all this, 554 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 4: yet they were fifteen yards from possibly winning that game 555 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 4: with a two point conversion. They're that close. The playing 556 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 4: with fire a true every week, and you know eventually 557 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 4: it's gonna get you because we, like I said, we 558 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,959 Speaker 4: don't force turnovers. We don't. The offense isn't a juggernaut. 559 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 4: You know, as much as people want to talk about Harvey, 560 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 4: we only had thirty yards out of them on the ground. 561 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 4: We didn't run the ball well at all tonight. It 562 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 4: would have been nice to see them go after him, 563 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 4: force some turnovers, not put ourselves because we've seen a 564 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 4: game already this year where I think it's the Giants game, 565 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 4: we get the phantom p I call on. I think 566 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 4: it was Riley Moss right down near the five yard line, 567 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 4: the one yard line. Yep, Giants punch it in. Then 568 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 4: luckily we did. They did end up winning that game, obviously, 569 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 4: But those are the things that you can't you know, 570 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 4: a corner slips, guy gets wide, you know, those things 571 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 4: you put yourself in a position like that you set 572 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 4: yourself up to fail. And I don't know. I'm just 573 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 4: I would have liked to see him. I was one 574 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 4: of the ones to call him for urgency earlier in 575 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 4: the game. I would have liked to have seen him, 576 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 4: you know, go after him, you know, force the issue, 577 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 4: force some turnovers, do something. Yeah, I'm just afraid we're 578 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 4: playing with fire. 579 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 2: Okay, I don't completely disagree with Josh. 580 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: I mean in the sense that you're you know, you 581 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: ride that razor's edge and there's an opportunity there to 582 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: get burned. I mean, in this case, it was a 583 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: close game, and it was a close game all the 584 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: way there to the end, and maybe a more competent 585 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: quarterback could complete that touchdown pass, but of course it 586 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: was overthrown, and that's that's ultimately what happened. 587 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 2: I'd say that part of R. J. 588 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 1: Harvey, though, to that point you made, it's not just 589 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: about what he does in the ground. It's also in 590 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 1: the passing game. So it's like the combination of in 591 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: some of this offenses. I'm not trying to make excuses. 592 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,719 Speaker 1: I'm saying some of this offense is running game, is 593 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: the quick passing game, which is a supplement to their 594 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 1: running game, if that makes sense. So you know, we 595 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: can read that whatever you want to your point though, 596 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: in so many of the categories they dominated with the 597 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: exception of final score, and ultimately that's what matters. And 598 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: too many games this year have been that close. And 599 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: so if you play that close, and we, by argument, 600 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: are probably gonna say they're going to play all their 601 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: postseason games that close, well guess what you allow for variance, 602 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 1: which means variance means you can lose that game. 603 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 4: True, true, And I and I'm hey, I love all 604 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 4: the wins. I'll take them anyway you can get them. 605 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 4: I'm just saying I would like to see them. You know, 606 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 4: tonight was an opportunity to maybe maybe force the issue 607 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 4: at the defense that's the strong side of our team. 608 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 4: Maybe force the issue and not think you can, you know, 609 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 4: get out of there with a little easier win than 610 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 4: what we had. And that's that's just kind of what 611 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 4: I'm thinking. 612 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 2: I did it. Yeah, I'm with you on that, Josh, 613 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 2: Thanks for the call, man. I appreciate. Merry Christmas. 614 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's I think that's fair. I think it's 615 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: fair to have that discussion about the way they won, 616 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: and I'm certainly never and you guys know this, if 617 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: you've been listening for any length of time. I'm not 618 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: of the opinion that there's a necessarily right or wrong 619 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: in these discussions. And I tend to allow for in 620 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: good faith discussions about all aspects of the game, good 621 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: and bad. I don't, you know, giant proclamations like we 622 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: had people earlier saying this team is destined to lose 623 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: in the plays in the first round, And I mean 624 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: that stuff can be a bit grinding to listen to 625 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: or read. 626 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: I you don't know, and you really don't know. You're 627 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 2: just projecting, but you. 628 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: Know, if you're gonna have an honest conversation about Hey, 629 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: like I as much as I appreciated the win, and 630 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: there were certain. 631 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 2: Factors that were very dominant about it. 632 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: You still won by one score and the Chiefs were 633 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: driving late in that game for a chance to tie. 634 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: It's all true. It's all true. The fact that it 635 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 1: was a thirteen doll game late in the fourth quarter. 636 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: That's not something that's probably gonna work against the post 637 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: in the postseason. But you know what, as we say 638 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: often on this show, and I've said this, consistently all year. 639 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: You didn't have to be the best team in the 640 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: league today. You had to be the best team in 641 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: the stadium today. And it sounds cliche, but it's true, 642 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: and it's a mindset that this team has adopted throughout 643 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: the course of the year. All right, let's hear from 644 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,479 Speaker 1: bow Nicks, who joined Voice of the Broncos Dave Logan. 645 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: After the game, we had down. 646 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 9: To the locker room talk with the starting quarterback of 647 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 9: the Broncos Bone Knicks Boats Dave Logan. Congratulations, you finished 648 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 9: the game twenty six to thirty eight for one eighty two, 649 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 9: a touchdown and an interception. But that last drive, talk 650 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 9: a little bit about that. You guys are tied at 651 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 9: thirteen and you put together an excellent drive to get 652 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 9: that touchdown in the last couple of minutes. 653 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, we did. We completed some key third downs and 654 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 8: that went over the middle to LJ. Short of the 655 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 8: biggest one. You know, that was a tough third down 656 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 8: and long, but we did a good job of hitting 657 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 8: a great protection, hit it over the middle, and then 658 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 8: we finished it with a good RJ touchdown. 659 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 9: You look like, well, you didn't look like you ran 660 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 9: the ball effectively tonight you pulled that thing down and 661 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 9: used your legs a lot. Was that just play by 662 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 9: play sort of the feel of the game, or did 663 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 9: you know going in you might do that? 664 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,959 Speaker 8: Well, this team has historically, you know, to move the football, 665 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 8: you you got to pull it down and run some 666 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 8: And I think it was just you know, play by play. 667 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 8: It was rhythm of the game, the flow of it. 668 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 8: And uh, there was a you know, the touchdown was 669 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 8: a design run and that one got in, but most 670 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 8: of them were just scramble drills. 671 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 9: Last thing you've You're gonna have a weekend now to 672 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 9: kind of sit back and see what others do. But 673 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 9: now it's back to work in the season. Basically, at 674 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 9: least the regular season comes down to one game, one 675 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 9: home game for you guys to decide kind of what 676 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 9: path you'll take. 677 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, no doubt, it's one last one. We gotta take 678 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 8: care of business. But you know it's gonna be against 679 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 8: a really good football team, so we gotta handle business 680 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 8: as best we can. And you know, it all comes 681 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 8: down to this. 682 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 9: Yep, appreciate it both. 683 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 4: Thank you. 684 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 9: You bet bo Nicks in the locker room. 685 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: And that conversation is presented by Dan Caplis Law, A 686 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: serious firm for serious cases. We'll be right back on 687 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: the kiae Broncos, are you network? 688 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 10: I think our players knew that we were going to 689 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 10: get their best shot. They also knew We're going to 690 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,479 Speaker 10: be alert for fake punts. We're going to be alert 691 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 10: for them running it out of the end zone. You know, 692 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 10: if you're kicking it deep, you know, how are they 693 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 10: going to create points? It wasn't quite like that game 694 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 10: where we came to Denver and you guys had Kendall. 695 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 10: That changed completely how we played our game. But we 696 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 10: saw a ton of zone covered soft zone. They were 697 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 10: going to force us to ropodope a little bit, if 698 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 10: you will, and we made enough plays. 699 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Broncos did tonight. Like I said, I knew that. 700 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: I felt like the Chiefs were going to be fighting, 701 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: even down as many players as they were, and knowing 702 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: that this was the final, potentially the final game of 703 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey's career at Arrowhead, they were not going to 704 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: be a team that was going to go quietly into 705 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: the night. The Broncos did get one sack on Chris 706 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: Oladokin tonight, and for every sack made in today's game, 707 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: the Dan cap Law Firm will make a general's donation 708 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: to Denver Catholic Charities, which services more than fifty thousand 709 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 1: homeless annually.

Get to 712 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: a couple of texts here before we take our final break. 713 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: I love the idea that Denver will be actually playing 714 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: for the one seed, win the game and go into 715 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: the buy sharp. I don't like that much time off 716 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: for the starters. Merry Christmas, Ryan, that's from Matt. Yeah, 717 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: I tend to agree. I mean maybe if you to 718 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: beat Jacksonville and then won this game, I mean you 719 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: would have put it away at that point I think 720 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: more than likely, mean at least the AFC West. But 721 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: I don't want the one seed. Maybe you still have 722 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: to keep playing. But I agree with you in the 723 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: sense that you are going to play your starters next week. 724 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: You're playing them at home, it's a win, and you 725 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: have the one seed game and gosh, Broncos fans. I 726 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: think when we got the scheduled back at May, you 727 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: probably would have taken that You've been pretty thrilled about 728 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: the Broncos not only playing for potentially the AFC West, 729 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: but also the conference in the final game of the season. 730 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: Pretty exciting stuff. Andy from Kansas, I'm singing the Broncos 731 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: taking care of business every day. Broncos taking care of 732 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: business every way and winning in overtime. 733 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 2: That's funny. I like that. Chiefs wanted to win tonight 734 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: big time, but it wasn't gonna happen. Defensively, Denver held 735 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 2: up and the offense with the methodical drives all business, 736 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 2: my friend, All business. One more. 737 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: Winning home next week gets it done. Thank you, Ryan. 738 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: Happy victory Friday. Yep, we're gonna have fun on a 739 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: victory Friday Tomorrow. We'll be right back on the KAW 740 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: Broncos Radio network. The Chiefs had their first ten or 741 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 1: I guess double digit loss season since twenty twelve. 742 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 2: That's how long this run has been. 743 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: For the Kansas City Chiefs, and it came to an end, 744 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: like a lot of things. But yeah, we had caller 745 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: earlier saying that the Chiefs are done and this is 746 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: the Broncos era we'll see and because they have so 747 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: much talent and they're coached by what I believe is 748 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: one of the best coaches in the league. They've got 749 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: the makings of a team that can bounce back pretty 750 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: quick in my opinion, especially if Patrick Mahomes can rEFInd 751 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: his form. 752 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 2: But in the interim, this says where the Broncos are at. 753 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: They beat them at home, they beat them on the road, 754 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: and now the Broncos need to get one more win 755 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: and then they're into the postseason, and then the road 756 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl goes through Denver, which is again 757 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: coming back to a point we made many many times 758 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: of the course of the last couple hours something I 759 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: think a lot of Broncos fans, including myself, did not 760 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: expect us to be saying. 761 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: This year. 762 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: I know the Broncos would contend for the AFC West, 763 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: but never my wildest imagination that I think that the 764 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: Broncos would be vying for fourteen wins. I thought, and 765 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: I said at the beginning of the season, if things 766 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: don't go well, they're a ten wins, ten win team. 767 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: If they do go well, they're more of like eleven 768 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,280 Speaker 2: to twelve. And I was wrong. 769 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: They are They are right there thirteen to three, a 770 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: chance to go fourteen to three. 771 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: And then we'll see what happens. 772 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: Some people out there will continue to say the Broncos 773 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: have no chance to be successful in the postseason. I'd say, 774 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: at this point, what gives you belief that they won't 775 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 1: find a way to put themselves in a position to 776 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: win a fourth quarter game at Mile High because they 777 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: have all season long. But to the point that was 778 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: made moments ago, you don't want to put yourself too 779 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: close to that razor's edge because you certainly invite variants. 780 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: You invite opportunities for teams to do something that will 781 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: put you on the wrong side of the ledger when 782 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: it comes to wins and losses. Want to thank Dave Logan, 783 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: Rick Lewis, Suzie Wargen, Alan Jackson, Jesse Trujillo, Rick Weiner, 784 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: our statistician, Scott Miller or spotter, Nick Ferguson, Jojo Turnbo, 785 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: Benjamin all Bright, Zach Segers, Dave Tepper, Brenda Eger, Mike Irby, 786 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: Dominic Bond, and throw rod Rigae schan Scott and Grant 787 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 1: Smith for hanging out with me. 788 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: On a Christmas night. 789 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow three o'clock to break it all 790 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: down on a victory Friday. 791 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 2: Have a great evening everybody, and go Broncos. 792 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 8: They adn't a head the sardines and Louisiana Hawt Sauce tonight, 793 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 8: So maybe she's gonna have to stay outside. 794 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 6: But how about Dan Broncos.
