Denver (- 4 1/2) @ Cleveland (10-18-15)

[corgi]

No such thing as a bad 6-0 team

They could be like 1-5, it's amazing how things keep working out for them.

[oldunclemark]

this is the worst 6-0 team ever

say what you want...6-0 is legit..

..too legit to quit!

[runthepost]

Well 5-0

[runthepost]

6-0*

[oldunclemark]

GB comes in to Denver in 2 weeks ... it will be ugly.

No..it will be great....rare stuff

[oldunclemark]

The offense is just bland and uninspired. They are the drying paint of NFL offenses right now.

and that's Kubiak's offense....its run oriented and ball control...but you need a very good line

[amfootball]

1 offensive TD now in 3 games, almost 30 possessions for Denver. They are on the bye. If they are going to make changes they need to do it this week. They have GB, Pats, Pitt, Cincy, SD twice. They will face offenses that will not let them off the hook like the Browns did today and some of their other opponents of the past 6 weeks ...

[oldunclemark]

Emmanuel Sanders and Shane Ray....both hurt....Denver needs a bye week

[shakedownstreet]

darn i wanted the clowns to win

I;ve heard that for 6 weeks now

yeah, I don't know how sustainable the currently formula Denver is using is going forward. At some point they are going to have to change things. You can't expect the defense to score points for you every game. Like I said though 6-0 so I'd be happy if I were a Denver fan. Just bums me out to see Peyton playing that bad.

It's the offensive system.  Peyton has enough arm.  He's just not comfortable in that system...which is Kubiak's offense

6 -0 is 6-0. The end

Manning looks unable to put anything on the ball without having to jerk his whole body into it and even then he is throwing an 82 mph fast ball. It is stunning how much strength and accuracy he has lost. They need to figure out something during this bye week offensively. Sanders injury could be big too. They won't go far with 1 TD every 3 games ...

[CR91]

6 -0 is 6-0. The end

 

you need to stop being blind because its peyton and open your eyes. this team has so many flaws. their luck and defense isnt gonna carry them against the really good teams they will be facing soon

[oldunclemark]

say what you will..when the team has fallen behind in the 4th Q..the old man has pulled it out

[BloodyChamp]

Haven't got to watch anything today but just looked at the scores. Tell me Peyton wasn't bailed out again...seriously...his season is the newest Final Destination movie.

[jvan1973]

I guess we will find out when they play those teams. But the fact of the matter is right now they are undefeated

[amfootball]

Denver is reminiscent of the Chiefs from a couple of years ago when they went 9-0 and then the wheels came off when they faced good teams. We will see if that happens to Denver as the rest of their schedule after the bye is much tougher.

bailed out isnt even the word

[Gramz]

  sitting here laughing at all the comments.  

 

Just got home from watching the game with my son who is a Browns fan.   What a wild game, and say what you want,  the Broncos are still 6-0 and continue to manage to get it done. I Love their Defense, and Yeah, there were some bonehead plays on offense today, but they still got it done.   I thought the game was Great.

Peyton has plenty of arm strength and is still able to put the ball where it needs to be.  He's just running a system in which he isn't comfortable

Cut and paste much?

[oldunclemark]

26 of 48, 290 yatrdfs..1 TD,...3 INT

..not great but not bad either if you win

a.m. ...you dont belive that, do you

Peyton is Alex Smith? Really?

I agree with this 100%.  

[amfootball]

He is worse right now mark, stats wise.

[oldunclemark]

He is worse right now mark, stats wise.

Exactly....and we obcess on stats..not wins and losses

...Denver is 6-0 and KC is 1-5....When Denver has to go down the field to save the day, they do..

..they are changing the offense with a make shift line....new TE...and they are 6-0

/////Peyton is obviously better than Smith...when it matters..it you want to accept that the QB is a major player in wins and losses

[F.T. Walton]

They could be like 1-5, it's amazing how things keep working out for them.

No 1-5 with Denver's defense.  They would be wining impressively with a half decent offense and a QB who didn't throw INTs.  How many pick-6 has Manning thrown this season?

Nah, They had Alex Smith. Chiefs LOL. I would still take Peyton over him easily.

Broncos are either an implosion with several losses coming up waiting to happen vs. better teams or they are some sort of team of destiny with magic on their side.

 

Stay tuned.

It just takes too long for the ball to get "where it needs to be." Hence all the short passing and INT's. It's really simple to say "he has plenty of arm strength." The ball wobbles , flutters and floats. Can he still be an effective QB ? IMO, he's still Peyton Manning , so yeah he can throw to a spot and hit it . He can recognize the weak spots in a defense . But to say he has plenty of arm strength is just not the case.

They're going to run into teams like GB and NE that down right destroy them.

 

 

This is bad teams they're struggling with. If it weren't for the defense scoring that touchdown early on with the pick 6, this game is probably a loss. Can't believe Cleveland couldn't pull this out after getting the pick in Overtime. 

 

 

Denver struggling with bad teams is very alarming. Something is seriously wrong with this team. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Broncos are the best team in the AFC, it is because of their Defense But..... Peyton is older so he is not wearing himself out and is just experimenting. They have the Best Defense and Peyton is still capable of beating anyone. He just wants to be healthy in the Playoffs. If the Broncos don't go at least 12-4 I would be shocked.

4-0 on the road..and a 3-game division lead

[ViriLudant]

Tom Brady against the Chiefs last year: 14/23, 159 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs, replaced by Garoppolo. The season is young and Kubiak still has time to get his stuff sorted out

Horrible comparison.

Brady always had an arm, even last year.

Peyton doesn't. Sander got hurt because Peyton under threw that ball.

[Blue Horseshoe]

They need to strip out the entire Kubiak offense and let Manning run the offense
