Brandon Perna from That'sGoodSports wants them to trade Jeudy.

I would love LOVE Jeudy on the Bills, but last time I checked Brandon Perna is not the Broncos GM.

In the running for one of the worst games ever played- under perfect weather conditions!

 

Absolutely putrid were both teams!

 

Wilson grabbed Fort Knox and ran… at top speed to total mediocrity.

 

Disgraceful!

Let he who has not sinned cast the first stone

Todd Collins led Bills beat Jim Harbaugh led Colts 9-6 on MNF in 1997.

Its amazing Todd Collins was cleared to go back in that game by the concussion protocols.

In 2 years, the Colts will be ready to trade for him.

So you’re betting Russel’s knees, arm and nerves are going to be diminished so badly that he can finally qualify to be the qb for the newest colt’s coaching hire?

Concussion protocols didn't start until 2011. Back in 1997 you just rubbed some dirt on it and "shook it off".

I know that, just kidding around.  Its incredible to see guys just out cold on the field coming back into the game a few plays later given the focus on concussions now.  Collins took a brutal shot in that one.

Too funny.  If not posted already, enjoy.

I remember it as the first eight games of the first year = The Man.

 

After that, lordy.

That was a sad game. Russell Wilson is washed up. Waste of money for 5 years and gave up a ton of high picks and players.

What a terrible game of football. At least for me the streaming quality on the Amazon app was very high quality for the second week in a row. Amazon did a good job putting together their commentary crew as well. Like Fitz and Sherman a lot. Always thought Michaels does a good job calling games as well. They must have paid a lot to get him to come over.

[WideNine]

That was so.......... meh.

 

Tossed the remote back to my wife and said you can watch whatever else you want midway through the 2nd qtr.

 

Checked back later on that snoozer, only to see the glacial effort was into OT.

 

Just really bad football. Felt like a low-scoring preseason game with crappy backup QBs.

Just looking at the Thursday night games moving forward:

13/10/22: Commanders at Bears

20/10/22: Saints at Cardinals

27/10/22: Ravens at Buccaneers

03/11/22: Eagles at Texans

10/11/22: Falcons at Panthers

17/11/22: Titans at Packers

24/11/22: Patriots at Vikings (do they have the Thanksgiving evening game?)

01/12/22: Bills at Patriots

08/12/22: Raiders at Rams

15/12/22: 49ers at Seahawks

22/12/22: Jaguars at Jets

29/12/22: Cowboys at Titans

 

Not the best of match ups, to be honest. Some of them might be half decent, but they're more in the latter half of the run. Any game would have to go some way to out-bore yesterday's game, though.

No direspect but you seriously overestimated TBD - we need an American mm/dd/yy format converter now

If you like X's and O's, check out this rapid turn-around QB Confidential by Kurt Warner. 

 

He breaks down some of the problems with the Broncos passing game last night.  

Spoiler: many of them are Wilson missing throws, but not all.

 

[I found Warner very easy to follow on this episode, he diagrammed the routes and the QB's reads - very clear]

he seems a lot better without Collinsworth in the booth

Hackett’s clock management, including use of timeouts, leaves a ton to be desired for sure. But the lion’s share of the blame for Denver’s problems rest with Russell Wilson. Hackett has been scheming guys open all season, but Wilson either can’t find them or misses them when he does. It’s been apparent in every game this season.
