Latest / Mile High Huddle Podcast / BFB #528: Broncos Takedown Chiefs, Take Stranglehold on AFC West
Transcript
- 0:04[SPEAKER_00]: And it is a victory Monday, probably the most impressive and important victory Monday.
- 0:10[SPEAKER_00]: The Broncos have had in a while, maybe since the week 18 game last year, because that was Cleansing a playoff birth and breaking that streak.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_00]: But my god, the Broncos take down the Kansas City Chiefs.
- 0:24[SPEAKER_00]: who have won the division every year since 2016.
- 0:28[SPEAKER_00]: And the Broncos now rise to nine and two on the season.
- 0:32[SPEAKER_00]: With the currently ahead of head over the five and five Kansas City Chiefs, I think I saw football outsiders or ESPN or somebody had the Broncos with a 72-ish percent chance of winning the AFC West.
- 0:44[SPEAKER_00]: We're riding high, baby.
- 0:46[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome in, everybody.
- 0:47[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Nick Kendall, joined by Eric Trickle.
- 0:49[SPEAKER_00]: This is our new time slot.
- 0:51[SPEAKER_00]: So hopefully everybody at home
- 0:53[SPEAKER_00]: enjoy enjoying and waking up early to do this and shout out first off before all that to Eric for the 4.30 a.m. wake up Alaska time.
- 1:04[SPEAKER_00]: We probably need to start getting you on coffee or something here, Eric, pretty soon.
- 1:08[SPEAKER_00]: He had Chase's port Eric being up at 4.30 a.m. We're going to have you climb in 14 or it's next time you're out here in Colorado with these with these wake-up times.
- 1:17[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, it's wake up times aren't so bad.
- 1:20[SPEAKER_02]: It's the fact that I don't get to sleep until midnight when a clock in the morning.
- 1:24[SPEAKER_02]: That's what makes the wake up times so rough.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_02]: Doing with insomnia isn't easy.
- 1:29[SPEAKER_02]: It's not fun, but it's worth it.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_02]: Being up this early, especially when you get talk about the Broncos with the wind that they had with their AFC and NFL leading, not just AFC West, record right now.
- 1:40[SPEAKER_02]: They said a top at the NFL.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_02]: sitting above the New England Patriots in the AFC and then the NFC the top two teams fill it off at EGLE sitting at 8 and 2 ramps and get 8 and 2 and they beat the EGLE so
- 1:54[SPEAKER_02]: They said the best record in the NFL right now, which is great to see.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's not something that anybody would have guessed and just being able to talk about that after so many years of the Broncos being where they were and after the statement that they made against the chiefs, waking up at four o'clock in the morning for this.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_02]: Well, in this case, it was 330 in the morning because I couldn't sleep.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_02]: It's worth it.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm glad to hear you say that.
- 2:19[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully we can keep that energy going forward but today for sure.
- 2:23[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, man, what a game for the Denver Broncos.
- 2:26[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, things here or there that they could work on but
- 2:31[SPEAKER_00]: I guess the big takeaway is Bonyx looked like a different quarterback than he has a lot of this season.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll get into that, I posted some broadcast clips yesterday because I don't think the old 20s.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it's up now.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't out last night.
- 2:44[SPEAKER_00]: So excited to get into it.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_00]: Excited to say hello to everybody coming in.
- 2:49[SPEAKER_00]: Share.
- 2:49[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure you guys are liking, sharing, subscribing, all that good stuff because, again, this is an hour earlier than our typical time.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure some people are going to wake up and excited to
- 2:58[SPEAKER_00]: Hang out and look something back.
- 3:00[SPEAKER_00]: Wait a second.
- 3:00[SPEAKER_00]: The show's over.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_00]: What the heck happened?
- 3:02[SPEAKER_00]: So we're going live 6 30 AM.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to make all you people 14 your mountain time with the waking up a little bit earlier here.
- 3:09[SPEAKER_00]: Brighten early our super chats coming in.
- 3:11[SPEAKER_00]: This is one.
- 3:12[SPEAKER_00]: I don't recognize because crushing.
- 3:14[SPEAKER_00]: It's an awesome name and it's also a really cool logo there.
- 3:17[SPEAKER_00]: Kind of looks like an 8 bit retro Broncos logo there.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_00]: He says good victory morning.
- 3:23[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone.
- 3:23[SPEAKER_00]: Bo looked great.
- 3:24[SPEAKER_00]: set his feet, stung the ball where he wanted and was clutch as always, let's effing Bo Orange Crush Go Broncos.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I, the main takeaway probably should be the defense for the Broncos considering how good the chief's offense has been this season and doing what they did without.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_00]: PS2, but of course, Bonix looked different.
- 3:46[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I know that we had the mini-buy and everything, but the... And he still has a little bit of, you know, hyper... Like in the pocket, like a little bit unsettled sometimes, like there's some times it's like, okay, buddy, I see a climb in there, but we could reset still, you know, the Tom Brady Classic reset and then deliver a repeatable motion, but it was...
- 4:06[SPEAKER_00]: a billion times better than what we saw versus Houston, and especially the Raiders as well, and it didn't have to come from him scrambling like everybody's screaming for all these other things.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_00]: Now, he played within the confines of the pocket, a lot of times he climbed up into space within the structure of the pocket while keeping his shoulders square and his base pretty good, much better than it has been, so yeah, but Bonix.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_00]: I know I'd go probably be some people like this is always what he was like he was not playing like this for a lot of the season and we'll see if you can keep it up but this is this makes me excited for what could come if this is the level of play we can go places this season.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, it was great, and even more than the footwork, it was not just, and this is something that I highlighted a lot, especially after the radio's game.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_02]: There were so many plays where he was double clutching the ball, you know, looks like this pump face because that comes from a stamp, a point of not trusting your reads.
- 5:04[SPEAKER_02]: you do that because you're not out throwing trying to throw people off because these aren't pump fakes.
- 5:08[SPEAKER_02]: These are double clutches, hitches in a step, things like that.
- 5:12[SPEAKER_02]: That comes from a lack of confidence in what he's seeing and what he's reading.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_02]: And that wasn't the case.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_02]: There were multiple throws today, like as you said, there were still some issues, but those can be set aside for now because of how good he looked in these key areas that he needed to bounce back in.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_02]: He hit the top of his drop and was making the throw most of the times he went through his reads that one big I think probably the one of the best throws of the day in terms of from nicks in the technical standpoint and with the confidence and all that was the three third and 14 throw to quote and suddenly in the game.
- 5:43[SPEAKER_02]: It's top of the drop, he made the slight climb in the pocket and you can see him going through every single read.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_02]: He checks left, looks right, goes back to some and fires it in there.
- 5:54[SPEAKER_02]: Doesn't double clutch, it doesn't put a hitch in his step, doesn't do any of that.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_02]: It's just clean from start to finish from him, one of the better throws with his footwork, which there were still some issues on some of those throws, but that was one of the better ones.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_02]: And,
- 6:08[SPEAKER_02]: then the another issue that he had was a lack of confidence in his what seemed to be a lack of confidence in his weapons to make plays at times.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_02]: And the best example of him getting over that Troy Franklin two drops early in the game and then comes back and mixes look in his way on critical downs late in the game that leads the Broncos to what one of them was on the
- 6:36[SPEAKER_02]: Game time for a goal to get to 19 in the game when they drive.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_02]: fired two big shots to Troy Franklin for big gains there showing trust in his teammate going that you know he's been with since college to make the play when it's needed granted one of those plays Franklin absolutely took advantage of a complete lunge at the line to press but hey that's fine that's what you still need to do you need to show that faith when that happens and that trust in them.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_02]: Bow Nick's looked completely different than he has all season long
- 7:06[SPEAKER_02]: This is the first game that I look at and I see him play since, you know, this season anyways, where I look at Bonix and I'm like, he can be a legit top 10 quarterback because of how good this game was from start to finish.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_02]: Some rough moments, yes, but it was still a really good game for me.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he looked confident and there was, um, I don't know who said it, but it was kind of outpost post game press conferences and interviews that, uh, Bonix,
- 7:33[SPEAKER_00]: was definitely bothered by the boonio.
- 7:35[SPEAKER_00]: He says he's not online or whatnot, but he took it to heart, and he looked in the mirror.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_00]: And...
- 7:40[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, understood as anybody who's watching critically good that he was struggling and not playing very good football at that moment and granted, you know, it's football.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: There's plenty of finger pointing as well.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_00]: But that's something that he took into and he really rose to the occasion.
- 7:56[SPEAKER_00]: So one thing, you know, we've always said like we can criticize the play for what it is, but it doesn't have to be this long big prognostication that he's always going to be trash.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_00]: Progress isn't linear progress is also not guaranteed, but it's not linear.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_00]: So we had plenty of time for him to figure it out.
- 8:14[SPEAKER_00]: And boy, this if this if this game becomes the baseline, like I said,
- 8:19[SPEAKER_00]: The Broncos have a chance to, I mean, they could be anybody.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_00]: And Lee, we'll see, I mean, the Rams Seahawks are pretty darn good.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_00]: And as good as Bonix was, let's not like confuse him with what mast efforts do in right now, still because the overall sample has been incredible.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_00]: But with the defense and Bonix protecting the football and making the reads and the plays that are there.
- 8:41[SPEAKER_00]: huge.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_00]: So Denver Luke comes in and says, what are they going to say now?
- 8:45[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, obviously the narrative today is going to be, they'll go talk about the Broncos being legit, but the narrative today for the national media is going to be more about the chief's dynasty ending.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_00]: I don't give a flying rats.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_00]: You know what?
- 8:58[SPEAKER_00]: Is this chief's team?
- 9:00[SPEAKER_00]: great this season.
- 9:01[SPEAKER_00]: They're they're often says as good as it's been since they've had Tyrekill.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_00]: They were number two in the league coming in on points for drive.
- 9:09[SPEAKER_00]: They were throwing the ball as well as I'd had in multiple years and the both the Broncos defense did was incredible.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_00]: I do think this is a very mediocre chief defense on the whole.
- 9:19[SPEAKER_00]: I know that some of their overall like points given up were good statistically, but they had like 40 or 40 less drives than the
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: One less game to this point, but like the way the chief's offenses have been playing has been protecting the defense.
- 9:34[SPEAKER_00]: When you look at the efficiency numbers, they're very middle of the pack defensively.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_00]: And then for me, the look, middle of the pack for the most part.
- 9:41[SPEAKER_00]: I wish we could have got a little bit more from the run game.
- 9:43[SPEAKER_00]: But that's neither here nor there.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_00]: Bonix.
- 9:46[SPEAKER_00]: even more impressive about Bonix, Broncos run for less than 60 brushing yards, the average less than three yards per carry, I believe, and the offense still puts up 22 points against the chiefs team that possesses the football.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_00]: So really, really awesome from the Broncos.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_00]: If you play like this, you got to chance against anybody in the fricking league.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_00]: uh... so good to see a den-reloved appreciate you coming and let's say a lot of some more folks obviously the number one way you can get at us is with a super chat we will definitely say hello if you do that uh... but that's obviously not the only way and back to crushing it thanks for the five dollars said thanks to a lot of my uh... logo had a viewer that i commissioned for some graphic work in the nailed it it is sick it is sick i love the old school logo it's definitely my favorite uh...
- 10:26[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I've done when I can wear anything.
- 10:29[SPEAKER_00]: Good to see David Youngkin, good morning to you.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_00]: Michael Ronkio in the House, good morning, Nick and Eric.
- 10:34[SPEAKER_00]: Always appreciate Michael.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_00]: We got formula, salty thunders, has how about a big special teams.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, another good takeaway here, highlighting mimms.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if this is the first game this season, Eric.
- 10:49[SPEAKER_00]: But it's definitely one of the games, hopefully I didn't freeze out here.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it's Eric.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_00]: But the Broncos.
- 10:55[SPEAKER_00]: definitively one special teams in this one from the block field goal that Denver had, uh, the out-of-bounds kick from the chiefs as well.
- 11:02[SPEAKER_00]: Good and good field position.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_00]: Mim is returning the ball.
- 11:05[SPEAKER_00]: Some pretty good krasha, uh, punts as well.
- 11:08[SPEAKER_00]: Now, what is it?
- 11:09[SPEAKER_00]: Like, perfect by any means, but finally, uh, Denver wins the third phase.
- 11:14[SPEAKER_00]: It had not happened much this season.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_00]: It mostly been like the Broncos offense and special teams losing of the defense being so good that they're breaking the mold of losing two or three
- 11:23[SPEAKER_00]: But special teams won this one.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_00]: And when you win by a walkoff field goal, that makes all the difference.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_00]: So shout out to Rizzi, you know, I've the same with Bonax, same with all of this.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_00]: Like when you're bad, I will criticize you.
- 11:33[SPEAKER_00]: But when you have a good unit and a good game, you better darn well praise it with the same energy.
- 11:38[SPEAKER_00]: So shout out to Rizzi and his unit, maybe the many buyers what they needed as well.
- 11:42[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't know what it was, but this was not the same special teams unit that we saw up to this point.
- 11:51[SPEAKER_02]: It was one where every single phase of special teams basically made a play, and it wasn't just the field goal kicking and punching unit.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_02]: you know we got the big pot return we had we didn't really get it in kick returns but kick off coverage they didn't have their busts and shout out to Jordan Turner and Hugh Robinson on special teams man they were always around the return or making a play on the ball.
- 12:14[SPEAKER_02]: I think almost I think every single tackle had at least one of them involved in it.
- 12:18[SPEAKER_02]: Um, shout out to them for stepping up, especially Jordan Turner.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_02]: I think this was his first call up on the season off the practice squad to come and make an impact might have been a second.
- 12:28[SPEAKER_02]: I think it might have been called up once before, but I can't remember for sure.
- 12:31[SPEAKER_02]: So shout out to them, shout out to Rizzi for, you know, seemingly going back to the basics with a lot of this, too.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_02]: Mims being back, that's great.
- 12:39[SPEAKER_02]: We finally got, you know, a big return from him.
- 12:41[SPEAKER_02]: He's had a couple of them, but this one was like the first one that,
- 12:45[SPEAKER_02]: really felt like it gave the offense a lot of momentum.
- 12:48[SPEAKER_02]: And then setting them up in the one kickback kickoff by the Chiefs is at the minute up in good physical range.
- 12:55[SPEAKER_02]: Like just every single element from Broncos special teams units were great.
- 12:59[SPEAKER_02]: This game obviously will lots with the game winner and the other multiple other field goes that he had perfect five for five.
- 13:05[SPEAKER_02]: Jeremy
- 13:08[SPEAKER_02]: One of his punts I was surprised was not blocked and he boomed that one and then keeps also had one I was almost blocked that the guy that they're punter absolutely boomed as well.
- 13:18[SPEAKER_02]: But man, this was the first game where I came away feeling good about special teams.
- 13:24[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm going to add this and I added it with the Broncos offense after the Dallas Cowboys game.
- 13:28[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully there was this wasn't a mirage because the chief special team unit when I went back and watched them.
- 13:33[SPEAKER_02]: They hadn't been great all season.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what the metrics say about this well, James, but at least on tape.
- 13:38[SPEAKER_02]: They didn't look very good.
- 13:39[SPEAKER_02]: So hopefully this wasn't a mirage game for the special team unit.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_02]: But and they can carry this over into the rest of the season because Denver can't keep losing on special teams like they were in the first what 10 games of the season.
- 13:51[SPEAKER_02]: and you know have so much fall on the offense and the defense.
- 13:55[SPEAKER_02]: They need all three all three phases reliably.
- 13:59[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 14:00[SPEAKER_00]: really good to see them step up.
- 14:02[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back Marvin Mims.
- 14:04[SPEAKER_00]: It was unfortunate to see the Broncos come away over to early in the game in the red zone gold to go situation.
- 14:12[SPEAKER_00]: The chiefs obviously, this isn't a super chiefs team.
- 14:16[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, like I said, they're still the team to be and they were number one in the Vegas power rankings.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_00]: If you put it a gun to my head though right
- 14:30[SPEAKER_00]: And I'd be it, honestly, and then the entire NFL over Kansas City to definitively, right now.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_00]: But Denver, if they're going to, you know, slice them dragons this season, maybe Denver's becoming a dragon themselves.
- 14:43[SPEAKER_00]: But you got to take advantage of those early situations.
- 14:46[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, what a different game it would have been if you were 14 to nothing out of the gate there rather than 60 to 0, right?
- 14:52[SPEAKER_00]: So, shout out to the Bronco's defense as well on, again, just a really good game from the Bronco's defense.
- 14:59[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, the penalty yards will get into that here at some point, I'm sure, but holding the chiefs to five for 13 on third down is a really good over one on fourth down as well.
- 15:09[SPEAKER_00]: Five yards per play is not like incredible, but it's pretty good, 311 yards total, one for four in the red zone makes all the difference and Denver win in the turnover battle.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_00]: It's crazy how much off and how often you win the turnover battle, you win the football game.
- 15:25[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's so basic, old coach speak, but stealing those possessions is key.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_00]: As key also key, Kevin coming in.
- 15:32[SPEAKER_00]: Why are we still treating Franklin at our number one receiver now with all those drops?
- 15:37[SPEAKER_00]: He's part of the progression and they keep feeding in the rock and it's been frustrating.
- 15:41[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I was tweeting my jokes off in the first half, but he came up.
- 15:44[SPEAKER_00]: They rewarded some of the the patients in the second half there.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_00]: So he's still a young receiver.
- 15:50[SPEAKER_00]: I think ideally still he's probably more your three or four in a good receiver rotation.
- 15:56[SPEAKER_00]: But right now, the Broncos are probably bottom 10 with Thobbins out in their overall like running back tight end wide receiver room.
- 16:04[SPEAKER_00]: But luckily they have a top 3 defense and a top 5 offensive line and Sean Peyton and if bone exploits like that, Sean Peyton I think is of the belief that if you can block it up and I can draw it up my quarterback and execute, I don't need to have super star playmakers.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_00]: I truly mean obviously to rather have that and he finds them still, but I don't think he thinks he has to have those guys to have a functional offense.
- 16:28[SPEAKER_00]: So in this game I think was kind of proof of it,
- 16:31[SPEAKER_00]: turning around and making some clutch plays and rewarding the Broncos in the trust, I guess, and then maybe they didn't have any other options, but he made some plays, which we haven't seen this season.
- 16:41[SPEAKER_00]: And hopefully that's something that can spring boredom going forward.
- 16:44[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, on the one, it was such an easy read right off the snap, because the defender lunged it to press them.
- 16:50[SPEAKER_02]: And he decides that it was a beautiful get-off.
- 16:52[SPEAKER_02]: I tried for a glance I'll credit to him.
- 16:53[SPEAKER_02]: That was one area where even though he showed some improvement earlier in
- 17:00[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it helps when the corner lunges into it, but hey, he was able to side step that get open.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_02]: It would made for a very easy read on the the one and then the second one.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_02]: That was just a beautiful throw to take advantage of the leverage that Troy Franklin set up on the corner and throwing it inside.
- 17:17[SPEAKER_02]: And Franklin, man, he made a great adjustment to it to get the ball in.
- 17:22[SPEAKER_02]: Catch it because he was looking for it on the outside shoulder and then he tracked it well to the inside turned adjusted and made the catch So a lot of credit to him for doing that and for bouncing back after those two drops which
- 17:35[SPEAKER_02]: The jokes are the jokes and the jokes are deserved.
- 17:38[SPEAKER_02]: You can't drop those places, especially on the critical.
- 17:40[SPEAKER_02]: One of them was a pretty critical third down.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_02]: The other one was a deep shot, which two frank ones credit was just off the tops, tips of his finger tips.
- 17:48[SPEAKER_02]: So it was slightly overthorned, silly, very couch catchup ball and one that he still needs to come down still a drop.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_02]: And so credit to him and credit to next for Enchanted for still showing that trust in try Franklin to make the plays when needed.
- 18:03[SPEAKER_02]: And as you said, it's one of the things he's still a very young player.
- 18:07[SPEAKER_02]: He's still only 21, 22 years old and still has a lot of room for a growth.
- 18:12[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I really don't think he'll ever be a legit full-time number two receiver outside to being forced into it.
- 18:19[SPEAKER_02]: I think if you're looking at him to be a number three receiver,
- 18:23[SPEAKER_02]: and if Pat Bryant can continue his development the way he is, Denver could have a pretty solid 1, 2, 3 combo with Sutton Bryant and Franklin, but still long ways to go for Franklin and Bryant to reach those levels.
- 18:36[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 18:38[SPEAKER_00]: And Mims as well tossing it out there.
- 18:40[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we don't have to get into it too much.
- 18:43[SPEAKER_00]: We got to buy a week coming up, but a lot of
- 18:45[SPEAKER_00]: information about the Broncos, you know, interest and receiver this off season from rapid port coming out about was a chef to report coming out about digs, Broncos that the trade deadline apparently they had a deal not as aggressive of a deal in place as the bills did, but had a deal framework in place for a water.
- 19:03[SPEAKER_00]: The Agbuca stuff at pic 19, with him coming up for one pic before.
- 19:07[SPEAKER_00]: So,
- 19:08[SPEAKER_00]: Denver does seem like they want another wide receiver and now you can argue about the timeline of some of that stuff as well, but I guess the eye and the sky doesn't lie.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_00]: You could use a little bit more firepower at wide receivers, become the number two slash.
- 19:22[SPEAKER_00]: three paid position on the lead for a reason.
- 19:25[SPEAKER_00]: We got Jay Ross coming in says orange rush is the new orange crush Super Bowl bound.
- 19:29[SPEAKER_00]: One game at a time, but we got our eyes now aFC West.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_00]: You got to take care of business.
- 19:33[SPEAKER_00]: Still, I'm sure Sean Peyton and this team will stay grounded.
- 19:37[SPEAKER_00]: I'm happy for them to have the buy week, although I'm going to be bored next Sunday.
- 19:40[SPEAKER_00]: But
- 19:41[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be excited for the Broncos to kind of shit their focus from hopefully the AFC West.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_00]: So I got to take care of business, but the one seed and man, we need to be, I don't know if you saw my I tweeted a lot, I tweeted a lot Eric, you know that, but the one from Gladiator with a camera of the actor's name, but everybody know the Gladiator that thumb down one instead we're going to be sitting there enjoying the show next week with Indie versus the Colts are Indie versus the Chiefs and
- 20:07[SPEAKER_00]: Either way, it's a win-win.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_00]: For me, either a loss for the chiefs, not coming up to five and six, probably, I mean, it'd be pretty miraculous for them to make the playoffs at that point, especially because they lost the tiebreaker to everybody in the wildcards ahead of them, or the chiefs beat the cults and then you just got the patriots in there, pathetic schedule in front of them.
- 20:26[SPEAKER_00]: But I mean, take care of what's in front of you.
- 20:28[SPEAKER_00]: He got a chance.
- 20:30[SPEAKER_00]: So, man, it feels, I cannot believe it.
- 20:32[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, I still can't believe it.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_00]: Right now for the Broncos.
- 20:35[SPEAKER_00]: how great it is.
- 20:36[SPEAKER_00]: Good to see you, J. Ross appreciate you.
- 20:38[SPEAKER_00]: So much, we got Mark coming in here.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_00]: Good morning, Broncos fan, Ernie Mays.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_00]: We're nine and two, eight straight wins.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_00]: He had incredible.
- 20:45[SPEAKER_00]: The Andre Weather Spoon, good morning guys.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_00]: Happy victory Monday, top of the AFC West.
- 20:49[SPEAKER_00]: Tyler Brooks got a great idea.
- 20:50[SPEAKER_00]: We'll talk on defense, making us look bad.
- 20:52[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he had a rough game.
- 20:55[SPEAKER_00]: I do think there's a little bit of, he's having the Garrett Bulls thing, Eric, we're like every single-tickie-tack thing that like, yeah, if you slow it down on watch and slow mo, it's a penalty, but if you do that on every single player on the offensive line, every single defensive back, you're going to have a penalty that could arguably be thrown 50% of the time, and he's like not getting.
- 21:13[SPEAKER_00]: a single break right now.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_00]: So stop holding that's I don't see how the post game interview is well where he took like the last one he's like, there's nothing I can say about that one.
- 21:24[SPEAKER_00]: I got to trust my technique and not panic when the balls and you're like got last P.I.
- 21:28[SPEAKER_00]: him a thousand percent the other ones it's like, okay if you're going to call it call it both freaking ways the whole game and we'll be here all day because he's going to be a penalty on 33 percent of the plays but he's got to be he's got to be better at the end of the
- 21:44[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I don't know.
- 21:45[SPEAKER_00]: I'm biased towards Riley because he's a good kid, but I do feel like a lot of the ones that are the 50 50 calls are going against him 95% of the time.
- 21:55[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so I'm going to preface this and say, I don't agree with two of the penalties that were thrown on him.
- 22:01[SPEAKER_02]: That doesn't mean they weren't penalties.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_02]: The first defensive past interference, you can't grab the jersey.
- 22:07[SPEAKER_02]: You can keep, you can set your hand on the chest, but when you grab and the guy is running away from you and the ref who threw the flag had a clear side of it, you're going to get called for that.
- 22:17[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty consistently.
- 22:19[SPEAKER_02]: That's one of the pretty consistent things with defensive past interference in this is you see that one regularly,
- 22:25[SPEAKER_02]: Now, you can get away with it if you can obstruct their view and things like that.
- 22:29[SPEAKER_02]: And that's what happens, but you can't grab it, especially when the receiver is clearly faster than you and it shows you and it leads to you type into, you know, kind of tugging on the jersey.
- 22:38[SPEAKER_02]: I don't agree with it being called just because it's still, I don't, I don't think that the ball was really in a, I don't say it was uncatchable, but it was still in a tough spot from the catch.
- 22:48[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't think he impeded the catch process enough to warrant the defensive passing interference.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_02]: The second one where he got called for the illegal contact downfield, I don't agree with that being called simple because the impact that had on the play was so minimal.
- 23:04[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think my home's even looked to that side of the field.
- 23:06[SPEAKER_02]: I think he just stuck on the right side so I had no impact on it, but you can't sit there.
- 23:10[SPEAKER_02]: You can't put your hands on on the receiver.
- 23:12[SPEAKER_02]: You can't ride with them beyond five yards.
- 23:14[SPEAKER_02]: That's pretty standard.
- 23:15[SPEAKER_02]: Like you can have some touching, some back and forth contact, but you can't sit there and have a hand on the chest, a hand on the back and run with them that way.
- 23:22[SPEAKER_02]: Penalty shouldn't have been called because of the lack of impact I had on the point the second defensive pass interference I was clear as day I mean, he was exactly the beginning before the blind I texted with a defensive backs Call as defensive backs coach last night, and he brought up this Riley Moss and he's a bronchist fan as well
- 23:39[SPEAKER_02]: He brought up, Riley Moss, he, everybody talks about his confidence.
- 23:44[SPEAKER_02]: But when you have that many past interference calls when you have this many flies against it, you don't have confidence in yourself.
- 23:51[SPEAKER_02]: And Moss touched on that effort.
- 23:53[SPEAKER_02]: You have to have confidence in your technique.
- 23:54[SPEAKER_02]: You have to have confidence in your positioning.
- 23:56[SPEAKER_02]: When you're grabbing, when you're leading to these things that call on it, going back to the Dallas Cowboys game with the two past interference calls on there,
- 24:04[SPEAKER_02]: Both of those, I don't agree with one of them being called.
- 24:07[SPEAKER_02]: I think the other one should have been do fits of holding, but you can look at them both stem from a lack of confidence in himself, a lack of trust in himself, one of them grabbing CD land when he's going through his break, because Rod Moss's momentum was going one way.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_02]: The other one was a little bit more ticky tacky.
- 24:23[SPEAKER_02]: Moss has to find a way.
- 24:26[SPEAKER_02]: to start getting benefit of the doubt again, because he doesn't have right now, you can mention it with garables, it's that same situation.
- 24:32[SPEAKER_02]: Everything, Tiki Taki, everything that's, by rule is a defense of passive interference, but it may not have the biggest impact on the outcome of a play, which is something that reps our taught to do.
- 24:42[SPEAKER_02]: That's why some of these penalties can be so frustrating, they are taught to look withholding with passive interference, what's the impact on the play?
- 24:50[SPEAKER_02]: He's got to figure out a way to start having that trust in his technique and that trust in himself a little bit more to keep these penalties from being called because it's so frustrating it nearly cost the broadcast this game and at some point
- 25:05[SPEAKER_02]: you got us in a message to Riley Moss that you have to figure this out and get it corrected.
- 25:09[SPEAKER_02]: Otherwise, we are going to make a switch.
- 25:13[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know when that is.
- 25:14[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's pretty darn close to it.
- 25:16[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if you do it out of the by week with Patrick's Tans first game back, but at some point it must just be sent.
- 25:22[SPEAKER_02]: Riley Moss has to take it to hard has to really get it into his head that he cannot do this anymore and break break that trend.
- 25:30[SPEAKER_02]: And again, regain the benefit of the doubt,
- 25:35[SPEAKER_02]: It's not my mom.
- 25:36[SPEAKER_02]: He's got he's got to get it figured out.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 25:39[SPEAKER_00]: I will be curious with Patrick's retain coming back.
- 25:42[SPEAKER_00]: If he comes back for the Washington game, I mean, if it's Marcus Marioda, do you have to rush him back?
- 25:48[SPEAKER_00]: If he's not 100% grand or is anybody ever 100% but take your time.
- 25:53[SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
- 25:53[SPEAKER_00]: Shout out to fans Joseph and the defense.
- 25:55[SPEAKER_00]: He is he's all caps gone gone gone after the season and must he absolutely bombs the interviews, but well, listening to people who are connected to him, as well as articles written about him like when he gets the opportunity he's going to go.
- 26:08[SPEAKER_00]: I know Broncos fans like, Oh, what if we just throw a lot of money at him, he wants to be one of the 32 and he's deserves that chance.
- 26:14[SPEAKER_00]: So he'll be gone and these are what we call good problems.
- 26:23[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see what happens with that Sean Payton made a good higher there with going advance the first time.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_00]: I trust the infrastructure in place.
- 26:30[SPEAKER_00]: Ace and Spade, good to see you in the house.
- 26:32[SPEAKER_00]: We got a Sentinel coming in here, great to see you.
- 26:35[SPEAKER_00]: Rochru, it's a Pat Bryant step-in-up.
- 26:36[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, he did.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_00]: I'm really happy that he cleared the concussion there.
- 26:40[SPEAKER_00]: I was worried about him there for a second.
- 26:42[SPEAKER_00]: Good play action, the pass, I think, on that one.
- 26:44[SPEAKER_00]: David Kermillow, good to see if I have dollar super chat.
- 26:47[SPEAKER_00]: This is pretty clear that Bonix, plateaued more than Regress compared to last year.
- 26:50[SPEAKER_00]: This is Best Case scenario, May, G.L.
- 26:52[SPEAKER_00]: and Hertz tier.
- 26:52[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's Best Case scenario.
- 26:54[SPEAKER_00]: It's still probably more of a DAC press got.
- 26:58[SPEAKER_00]: was, you know, didn't have the A plus arm, but had, you know, an A minus B plus arm.
- 27:02[SPEAKER_00]: Good well-built athlete that grew into a really smart cerebral pocket pastor over time that had a really good offensive line to protect him and allow him to grow over time.
- 27:12[SPEAKER_00]: So I think that's probably still more the, I hate to put like actual ceiling on it.
- 27:17[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's always just like we're trying to compare styles of guy like he'll never be Josh Allen, he'll never be Patrick Mahomes, he can't
- 27:28[SPEAKER_00]: This was a better than Jalen Hertz has been as a drop back passer for a lot of his career in this chiefs game actually working the middle of the field somewhat so I don't know if he plateaued I would say that he regressed compared to last year for the most part until this game other than the Bengals slash Cowboys game which I don't even know what to do with with those two games because they were playing JV level defenses, but I'm not ready to put any sort of label on Bonyx other than he's the Broncos starting quarterback right now and if you can play like this.
- 27:58[SPEAKER_00]: Going forward, you got a chance to be a long time starter for the Broncos and earn a pretty big second contract, but it is just one game.
- 28:06[SPEAKER_00]: do it again.
- 28:07[SPEAKER_00]: That's what that's what impresses me.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember the Eagles game eric where they beat that one.
- 28:12[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, I'm impressed they beat the Eagles, but I've been more impressive.
- 28:15[SPEAKER_00]: They can win the next four games in a row because doing it, we can in week out against different competition is more impressive than just having one good game.
- 28:22[SPEAKER_00]: So shout out, obviously they'll take the one good game, but what makes the difference is doing it, we can in week out and having a baseline and trust worthy level play in each game.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, I think I'm with you.
- 28:36[SPEAKER_02]: I think it was pretty clear that he regressed from last year up into this point.
- 28:39[SPEAKER_02]: And I think this game is the first game where he really inspires that confidence as I said earlier that he could be a top 10 quarterback.
- 28:46[SPEAKER_02]: Instead of, and I don't want to make that sound like, oh, I didn't think he could be a top 20.
- 28:50[SPEAKER_02]: I had him right around, you know.
- 28:52[SPEAKER_02]: 11 to like 14 15, but this is the first game again, really seemed like it could be a top 10 quarterback.
- 28:58[SPEAKER_02]: And if you could just keep playing like this, keep playing smart, keep playing clean and fast, and with confidence in himself and his playmakers, then this team could go anywhere, and they could win this, if they can get that level of play out of them, every single game from here on out.
- 29:14[SPEAKER_00]: And so it's, and they won't, and they won't also help you, they'll be dips and guess what?
- 29:19[SPEAKER_00]: We'll say the dip was a dip.
- 29:21[SPEAKER_00]: But that doesn't mean that he's trashed or anything else.
- 29:24[SPEAKER_00]: So sorry to interrupt you, I said, I think that's just an importance.
- 29:26[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't have to do that every week.
- 29:27[SPEAKER_00]: You just want the trend line to reach that point.
- 29:30[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 29:31[SPEAKER_02]: And
- 29:32[SPEAKER_02]: you're going to have those games and then how you can make up for it when you know bonus does slip does have those dips in it, but you just want him to keep going forward with it and inspire that confidence going forward because one thing with him, even though we had our questions about him this team and we've gone through a lot of bad quarterbacks and in Denver over the last 10 years, right?
- 29:51[SPEAKER_02]: And how many times have we gotten this point where the offensive struggled as much?
- 29:54[SPEAKER_02]: And we've heard the rumblings, the defenses fed up with the
- 30:00[SPEAKER_02]: It's been like almost every single year up until last year with Bonix, really seem to have it.
- 30:06[SPEAKER_02]: And then this year, we're not hearing that either.
- 30:09[SPEAKER_02]: This team has not lost faith at all in Bonix.
- 30:14[SPEAKER_02]: And they've kept that faith, they've kept that trust in him and kept it not just, you know, from the coaching staff, not just from the general met, the front office, but the players as well.
- 30:23[SPEAKER_02]: And that speaks to their just what they believe in and how they will
- 30:28[SPEAKER_02]: and can cover for Bonix when he has those down weeks.
- 30:31[SPEAKER_02]: As they did for what seven of these eight pretty much winch games in the winch streak outside the Dallas Cowboys game.
- 30:38[SPEAKER_02]: So a lot of Nathan Bonix, a lot of ways for the still to go, still very early in his young career.
- 30:45[SPEAKER_02]: And right now he set that trend of this with the statement win of where you need him to be, where you want him
- 30:59[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 31:00[SPEAKER_00]: It's the week to week and it doesn't always have to be perfect.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_00]: But this is a step in the right direction.
- 31:05[SPEAKER_00]: I really like that.
- 31:07[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the booze bothered him.
- 31:08[SPEAKER_00]: But I think it was more so him looking in the mirror.
- 31:11[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he knew that he was struggling.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure there was talk behind the scenes with Sean Payton as well.
- 31:16[SPEAKER_00]: What you get from the press conference isn't always just getting in the film room.
- 31:19[SPEAKER_00]: That's for damn sure if you've ever been in something like that.
- 31:21[SPEAKER_00]: But no, it was good to see.
- 31:24[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't think he's
- 31:25[SPEAKER_00]: plateaued, maybe he has also David like, but there's no reason I think to put definitive labels on him, right?
- 31:33[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I mean, from seeing what he looked like from the Raiders game to this game, night and day, difference played like the worst quarter, I've let's call it as it is like one of the bottom three quarterbacks in the NFL in that Raiders game, any playback, a top 10 guy in this game.
- 31:46[SPEAKER_00]: It's just finding that consistency.
- 31:48[SPEAKER_00]: That's what makes, that's what separates flash in the pan quarterbacks with good seasons, good games to stall arts.
- 31:54[SPEAKER_00]: So we got Jay, Millzo, come in and says, over reaction, do you think we change cornback?
- 31:58[SPEAKER_00]: Moss for Chris Sabre and his drain, or Chris Sabre and his drain, these PAs will cost us huge and they'll play off.
- 32:03[SPEAKER_00]: and becoming a target to drop EI.
- 32:05[SPEAKER_00]: It's possible.
- 32:06[SPEAKER_00]: Again, we have the by week.
- 32:07[SPEAKER_00]: I think there's going to be it's good for everybody to get away including Moss also from to Moss is credit right now he's operating as corner back one and he should not be corner back one right I like he's he's a good corner back especially on a rookie cost control contract as a corner back to like I've stayed by that penalties are an issue and I mean that you mentioned there got a send a message.
- 32:27[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you saw the interview also I talked about putting on the boxing gloves for practice just so he doesn't even have the ability to grab so big week for him and we're pulling for him because he has him and he's in phase like he does the stuff right from the the ground up to his wrist most of the time and you're going to get beat every once in a while when you play cover one as much as Denver does and teams are throwing a
- 32:54[SPEAKER_00]: got to clean up the penalties there.
- 32:57[SPEAKER_00]: Even if I think it's, it's like Bolzer Leon where it's like every single tiki tack one, it's going against someone's like, every once in a while, I gotta not through that flag.
- 33:05[SPEAKER_00]: But,
- 33:06[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see, we talked about a lot early.
- 33:07[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks, Jay Mills, so we do have a lot of super chats coming in.
- 33:09[SPEAKER_00]: Diego, good to see a Pat Brian continues to impress.
- 33:12[SPEAKER_00]: I think we have something.
- 33:13[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, again, Pat Brian, Troy Franklin, am I ready to dub them?
- 33:18[SPEAKER_00]: Wide receiver, twos, let alone wide receiver ones?
- 33:21[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not yet, but useful pieces that Sean Payton is deploying will that are taking advantage of their opportunities.
- 33:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, absolutely, and I'm excited to see Pat Bryan get more involved.
- 33:36[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he's the overly most explosive player.
- 33:38[SPEAKER_00]: Like I wish there was a little bit more wiggle in the app for the catch or some explosiveness half of that.
- 33:43[SPEAKER_00]: But again, you're talking about round three pick.
- 33:45[SPEAKER_00]: So,
- 33:46[SPEAKER_00]: He's been consistent and he's making some plays when they're there.
- 33:50[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm excited for him as well.
- 33:52[SPEAKER_00]: And we talked about how much wide receiver is getting paid air.
- 33:54[SPEAKER_00]: When you have that on cost control, even if they are a wide receiver three or four, that's good ROI.
- 33:59[SPEAKER_00]: So excited to see how those guys can continue to continue to grow.
- 34:04[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's such a bummer that his 100% catch rate for first and first thousand touchdowns kind of went away in this game because of a screen.
- 34:13[SPEAKER_02]: That was still the only catch, but the first catch had to be had on the season even in this game where it wasn't a first down or a touchdown for it and that reliability is something he's only had one drop on the season and that was a bit of a high throw on him against the tour of him against the Giants, so very catchable still a drop.
- 34:32[SPEAKER_02]: So he's really become misreliable for it.
- 34:35[SPEAKER_02]: And one thing that I touched on in, I think it was this last Friday episode of, uh, developed driver's was, I would like to see Bryant get a screen thrown his way because he's used so much as a blocker that he can catch the defense off guard a little bit.
- 34:51[SPEAKER_02]: And so it was nice to actually see it happen against achieves.
- 34:54[SPEAKER_02]: And he picked up a decent set of yardage for it to get the Broncos ahead of the chains on it, ahead of the sticks.
- 35:00[SPEAKER_02]: So it was nice to see.
- 35:01[SPEAKER_02]: It's not something that you got to do every single game.
- 35:03[SPEAKER_02]: It's not got something you want to do two, three times a game.
- 35:06[SPEAKER_02]: But just every so often where you can catch defense, sleep in a little bit and hopefully make something happen.
- 35:12[SPEAKER_02]: Because, you know, he doesn't have that great wiggle or explosiveness, but he's very smart with his angles.
- 35:17[SPEAKER_02]: And that's one thing that we've seen on some of those crossers over the middle where he has taken him and picked up an extra 10, 15 yards that he's done a few times a season.
- 35:25[SPEAKER_02]: He just takes those smart angles to keep defenders, you know, in a negative leverage against them on their pursuit.
- 35:32[SPEAKER_02]: So I would like to see more screens with toward him going forward, just not super frequently.
- 35:38[SPEAKER_02]: You still want that to be joy-friendly in a Marvin Mims, who have that wiggle on that speed that explosive speed to really be such a threat.
- 35:44[SPEAKER_02]: But you can catch defensively being so so happy for him.
- 35:48[SPEAKER_02]: He was one of the picks that I like and he was probably I think he was the pick that got the most ridicule from Broncos fans during our live stream was a Pat Bryant pick.
- 35:56[SPEAKER_02]: So good to see him being, you know, so far outside of Krasha the best rookie performer for the Broncos.
- 36:04[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think you're right.
- 36:07[SPEAKER_00]: I will say that I was on a show last week where they asked me my favorite pick so far and while he's not had a lot of sample.
- 36:14[SPEAKER_00]: given the position he plays and the ROI that you could get there.
- 36:18[SPEAKER_00]: I'm pretty excited about Q Robinson.
- 36:19[SPEAKER_00]: I'm always happy to give him a shout out for the special teams.
- 36:22[SPEAKER_00]: But like for a fourth rounder looking like he does right now.
- 36:25[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's like he looks like a second rounder to me right now.
- 36:28[SPEAKER_00]: And he's been inactive because you have a spoil of riches.
- 36:32[SPEAKER_00]: But I shout up to Q.
- 36:33[SPEAKER_00]: He looks like something, man.
- 36:35[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not saying superstar by any means, but like
- 36:38[SPEAKER_00]: Again, where's the value on your return on the investment?
- 36:42[SPEAKER_00]: He looked at like a really good number three.
- 36:44[SPEAKER_00]: I think is there maybe even a two, but the edge defense run stuff.
- 36:47[SPEAKER_00]: We have to get into much.
- 36:48[SPEAKER_00]: We got the by way coming up.
- 36:50[SPEAKER_02]: He did pretty well in an edge against you on Taylor a couple times against the teams.
- 36:54[SPEAKER_02]: And then he had a big pattern.
- 36:55[SPEAKER_02]: So Ki Robin, that's a good shout out.
- 36:57[SPEAKER_02]: I think the sample size is why I would still say Pat Brown.
- 37:00[SPEAKER_02]: But Ki Robinson, I agree with you.
- 37:02[SPEAKER_02]: He does look like something.
- 37:03[SPEAKER_00]: He looks like a dude, man, that's, and I was my favorite pick the last draft.
- 37:08[SPEAKER_00]: uh... but uh... confirmation bias on that one rob books on good morning happy victory monday brayant is a step and we are in line for the number one seed let's go one game at a time folks one game at a time but uh... yet emperors i think even the one seed is great but man the monkey off the back that would be a home playoff game in the apc west and top in the chiefs who have won it nine years in a row error i believe that would be
- 37:32[SPEAKER_00]: have been credible.
- 37:34[SPEAKER_00]: So just happy to be here right now and keep winning games.
- 37:36[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see where it falls.
- 37:37[SPEAKER_00]: Getting a buy we could be incredible.
- 37:39[SPEAKER_00]: But.
- 37:40[SPEAKER_00]: Right now, the goal is still the AFC West and boy did we.
- 37:44[SPEAKER_00]: We make some inroads on that.
- 37:45[SPEAKER_00]: So thank you, Rob, so much of the super chat Diego.
- 37:47[SPEAKER_00]: Jay Milzo, also $5, and we got a big one coming in here from Perry West, $22.
- 37:51[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully, the Broncos score 100 points on the next game, given what the super chat correlates to here.
- 37:56[SPEAKER_00]: But it says 92, Denver over the chiefs, and again, the chiefs needed.
- 38:00[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm excited.
- 38:01[SPEAKER_00]: I don't typically listen to too much to national media.
- 38:04[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I don't want to be influenced too much.
- 38:06[SPEAKER_00]: You know, my eyes and my own logic to do most of the
- 38:10[SPEAKER_00]: nonsense that comes out of my mouth and I want to be also be attributed for the stupidity that I say but no, I'm looking forward to seeing what whatever his name is, Nick, the big chief's hater.
- 38:22[SPEAKER_02]: Nick, are you having a comment that's written on it?
- 38:25[SPEAKER_00]: I saw you tweeted something but I'm excited to see what he says in like long form today as well.
- 38:30[SPEAKER_00]: So I'll be looking for that one just because, you know,
- 38:34[SPEAKER_00]: Enjoy these moments, right?
- 38:36[SPEAKER_00]: Enjoy them.
- 38:36[SPEAKER_00]: So, I think wrong.
- 38:38[SPEAKER_02]: Nick Wright, more like, yeah.
- 38:40[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 38:41[SPEAKER_00]: God damn it.
- 38:42[SPEAKER_00]: I'll kick me out.
- 38:43[SPEAKER_00]: Probably we're coming in here.
- 38:44[SPEAKER_00]: It says love, the culture, son, Peyton, that's created.
- 38:47[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone plays hard for each other.
- 38:48[SPEAKER_00]: Don't need as many super stars of that type of team, excited to see how far they go.
- 38:51[SPEAKER_00]: Amazing time to be a Denver sports fan.
- 38:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'll be honest, guys.
- 38:54[SPEAKER_00]: I am football all the time, 24, seven.
- 38:57[SPEAKER_00]: If I had another,
- 38:59[SPEAKER_00]: It's Iowa Hawkeyes and Denver Broncos through and then my next favorite team would probably be the NFL draft.
- 39:05[SPEAKER_00]: So shout out to the Avalanche fans and nuggets fans as well.
- 39:08[SPEAKER_00]: I probably won't be tuning in, which is, you know, God bless you.
- 39:11[SPEAKER_00]: I'll watch some baseball cardinals and mariners, but yeah, really happy for the Denver fans.
- 39:16[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm excited.
- 39:17[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, why would we start the job this start the show earlier and we're changing the Mondays and Fridays?
- 39:21[SPEAKER_00]: I start my big boy job in Denver this week.
- 39:24[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm gonna be out and about and I'm excited to hopefully feel the vibes out here in Denver.
- 39:30[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully a lot of orange.
- 39:31[SPEAKER_00]: I know I was kind of a jinx going to games, Eric, I was like, oh, and nine until the Broncos finally beat the Packers, and now I've seen two victories this season already.
- 39:43[SPEAKER_00]: So maybe the jinx has broken, but when I move here, hey, man, we're back on the winning way.
- 39:50[SPEAKER_00]: So maybe I may be a reverse jinxed it.
- 39:52[SPEAKER_00]: Good to see you Troy.
- 39:53[SPEAKER_00]: All the great super chats coming in here.
- 39:57[SPEAKER_00]: I think big picture Eric, I did have to, I didn't want to give out another shout out to Vans Joseph.
- 40:02[SPEAKER_00]: We talked a lot about Bonix and like we said, at Bonix plays like this, you are, you're going to have a chance against almost anybody in the league.
- 40:10[SPEAKER_00]: Defense has to show up to like the heaven, boy, have they.
- 40:14[SPEAKER_00]: I know that like all Bonix, the most comebacks and NFL history for a player through their first two seasons, everything like that.
- 40:22[SPEAKER_00]: But,
- 40:22[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you don't get a chance for those comebacks.
- 40:25[SPEAKER_00]: If the defense isn't standing on their bleeping head now, I'd like a little bit more turnovers takeaways.
- 40:31[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, as well.
- 40:32[SPEAKER_00]: I'm still I'm pretty but hurt that the it was a penalty but like
- 40:36[SPEAKER_00]: If you're going to call it, there's going to be flags on 33% of the play as I tell you on the pick six for Jadai Baron would have been great, just, you know, get that monkey off their back as well.
- 40:45[SPEAKER_00]: Defensive Touchdown would be awesome at some point, but what Jay advanced Joseph has done with his defense, especially over these last three games without the defense supplier of the year, who is the identity of your defense in the back seven allows you to do what you've done
- 41:03[SPEAKER_00]: When these three games, like they have, I mean, stand up and take a bow.
- 41:07[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, like the defenders, obviously, as well, Bands Joseph, the positional coaches, everybody wants the quarterback and Yosha on Peyton and the excitement, everything.
- 41:17[SPEAKER_00]: But this is a defensive first team.
- 41:19[SPEAKER_00]: And what they did over the last three weeks, where it could have been easy to have the system cave in on itself, so to speak, without the your identity piece.
- 41:29[SPEAKER_00]: they stepped up.
- 41:30[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's, it is remarkable.
- 41:32[SPEAKER_00]: So really, really been so impressed with Vance Joseph.
- 41:36[SPEAKER_00]: If you had told me that what they've done the last two seasons after that, 70 or 20 game, I'd have said, give me the priority, but you had enough.
- 41:44[SPEAKER_00]: But that's a, it's been remarkable.
- 41:47[SPEAKER_00]: So shot at the Vance Joseph in this defense.
- 41:48[SPEAKER_00]: They are unbelievable.
- 41:51[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and it's a shame that he's most likely, I don't want to say he will because it's not certain stone.
- 41:56[SPEAKER_02]: He's most likely going to get a head coaching job.
- 41:58[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm will be curious for what the defense says after this.
- 42:01[SPEAKER_02]: But fortunately, they have a lot of their pieces locked up.
- 42:05[SPEAKER_02]: I still think there's a few pieces that they need to get locked up on defense.
- 42:10[SPEAKER_02]: You know, either Alex single to their justice or not extended would be great at preferred justice or not at this point of their careers, Malcolm Roach, John Franklin Myers, because if Pant Joseph gets a head coaching job, not only is he going to steal the staff, I would bet those players are going to be pretty high on his desire list for for agency, depending obviously on where he goes and what the, you know, the team looks at those positions.
- 42:35[SPEAKER_02]: One team that has been looked at.
- 42:37[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty favorably is the New York Giants with what they have with that defensive front, being able to go in there and largely replicate it.
- 42:44[SPEAKER_02]: Well, a player like John Flank and Myers, Malcolm Roach, and Justin Strenaud can all be major impacts with what they have with the defensive line quality indexed at Lawrence in the middle and adding to that rotation with him and Roy Robertson Harris.
- 42:58[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, 40 fence of lime, 400 units of lime in Denver, you have those four, you can bring those four into giant.
- 43:04[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll be really curious to see what happens if he does get that job, who gets plucked off the staff, who they replace them with, and where everybody expects it to be Leonard, but maybe there's somebody else that they're looking at.
- 43:18[SPEAKER_02]: But Hat tipped to him, he fully, like, it's going to be, it's going to be annoying.
- 43:22[SPEAKER_02]: I know a lot of people will still ridicule him for the head coaching job that he did here in Denver, even though there was a plot behind the scenes where he didn't even have a lot of say and who even played in games.
- 43:32[SPEAKER_02]: He was a head coach and name only basically when he was in Denver.
- 43:35[SPEAKER_02]: almost no roster say.
- 43:36[SPEAKER_02]: So he fully deserves a second chance that had a coaching job.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_02]: He has earned it.
- 43:42[SPEAKER_02]: I would say he's probably earned it the most out of almost anybody of these defensive minds that we've seen talked about with, you know, deserving a second chance.
- 43:50[SPEAKER_02]: He's probably earned it the most, like he's just done such a phenomenal job here in Denver or had tipped to him.
- 43:56[SPEAKER_02]: You know, he can nick pick a lot of things with his defense, but when it matters most, man, they come in clutch.
- 44:02[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, got young Tyrone in here night and two good to see we're going to be wrapping up your soon Sean says deck press got how dare you deck doesn't win super wolves or many playoff games
- 44:12[SPEAKER_00]: if you knew my body of work in my opinion a deck press got that's that's really high praise I think deck is a top seven eight quarter back he's just had other than the first two or three seasons of his career pretty bad situational team round of especially defense but he put deck press got on with this Broncos defense was Sean Peyton I mean we're we're right there with the top three teams in the NFL so we get that level of play we'd be great now but I hear what you're saying
- 44:42[SPEAKER_00]: That's maybe also an indictment that I don't expect, uh, Bonyx to be patched from Holmes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, uh, level of play because those are the top three.
- 44:51[SPEAKER_00]: But I mean, Dak is a top seven quarterback in the NFL.
- 44:54[SPEAKER_00]: Right now, if I had to win one game,
- 44:59[SPEAKER_00]: There's probably only one quarterback in the entire NFC.
- 45:02[SPEAKER_00]: I would take over deck press got it.
- 45:03[SPEAKER_00]: If I was like, I just think the situation around him, especially the defensive side of the ball isn't great, but the only quarterback I think in the NFC, I would like for sure take over him is Matt Stafford.
- 45:15[SPEAKER_00]: So I mean, that's, don't take from me that, I'm telling you that's not an insult.
- 45:18[SPEAKER_00]: You can perceive it that way, but I think deck is really good.
- 45:22[SPEAKER_00]: Germaine, great to see it, Kirk's, what a wonderful week, yes it is, great to see it.
- 45:27[SPEAKER_00]: formula says that the chiefs, cults and chargers have a tough schedule ahead.
- 45:30[SPEAKER_00]: We got Tyler Brooks.
- 45:31[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if we got to see too much Tyler.
- 45:33[SPEAKER_00]: Good to see.
- 45:33[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate you coming in here.
- 45:35[SPEAKER_00]: Joe Brewer.
- 45:36[SPEAKER_00]: Awesome to see you.
- 45:37[SPEAKER_00]: And prod comes in here.
- 45:38[SPEAKER_00]: This is a good point as we'll talk about the Broncos defensive line.
- 45:40[SPEAKER_00]: Talk about some of the depth and spoil of riches.
- 45:43[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's Patrick's or Dansters, the straw that serves the drink for like what they can call, but the identity of the team probably still that defensive line in past Russian.
- 45:51[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I was a riqueh, has really become a very useful piece as well.
- 45:55[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know if I think he's good enough that he should like outright supplant Malcolm Roach, but I think it's having that internal option gives Denver some leeway.
- 46:04[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's not a one for one for them as well, but you're going to be talking a little bit more of the zero one.
- 46:08[SPEAKER_00]: Some three in there and he's been he's been a very good useful piece for that Broncos defense and that defensive line They don't have miles Garrett out there like Nick Minino's great John the Cooper's great Zach Allen are awesome He might not find a better trio in the NFL, but they don't have the Avon Miller miles Garrett type But like the depth and the waves that they have nobody can match the depth of the Broncos defensive line this season nobody
- 46:33[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, who was reggae?
- 46:34[SPEAKER_02]: There's still lapses in his technique.
- 46:37[SPEAKER_02]: So there's still still room for him to grow and develop and, you know, still be better than what he is and he's made some plays and he's been caught looking at times, you know, gotten double teams, but when he plays with the good pad level and good hands man, he looks like he is practically unstoppable.
- 46:56[SPEAKER_02]: I think he is fine, and he, I think he's an excellent fifth man in the rotation on the defensive line.
- 47:02[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, can he be that fourth or third guy.
- 47:04[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know just because he is so tall.
- 47:08[SPEAKER_02]: He's what six six right six five and he just plays naturally high so it's hard for him to play with the harder from to play with that.
- 47:16[SPEAKER_02]: proper pad level that, you know, that defensive wind and need leverage, it's so important for them.
- 47:22[SPEAKER_02]: But as you said, he's a very impactful piece as that fifth man on the rotation.
- 47:28[SPEAKER_02]: I'd like to keep him there, at least for another year, to see if he can continue to grow and take that set forward into being that fourth third man on the rotation, which is why I talked about extending Malcolm Roach.
- 47:39[SPEAKER_02]: But right now, I mean, as you said, it does create that conversation of how much you need medical merch because it was doing enough.
- 47:45[SPEAKER_02]: And you still have confidence in your coaching staff and confidence in him, but continue to develop to be that piece.
- 47:51[SPEAKER_02]: So hat tip to him for balancing back from the year-long suspension for gambling and all that and waiting and biting his time and finally making Denver's patient, he's rewarding Denver's patients with his play this season.
- 48:08[SPEAKER_00]: And I'll be remiss.
- 48:08[SPEAKER_00]: I know we got to go.
- 48:09[SPEAKER_00]: I got to get in on the new job.
- 48:10[SPEAKER_00]: Drop the kid off at Dick here.
- 48:11[SPEAKER_00]: So we are going to start wrapping up.
- 48:13[SPEAKER_00]: But two things I would be absolutely remiss if we didn't talk about on this point, Eric, as a positive.
- 48:20[SPEAKER_00]: Shoutout, Gameball, John McMillon, the two Sachs.
- 48:23[SPEAKER_00]: Now granted, I have absolutely adore the nickel blitz and shadow defense shows if the time.
- 48:29[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I don't know who was next to him.
- 48:32[SPEAKER_00]: John McMillon on the last sack.
- 48:33[SPEAKER_00]: But
- 48:34[SPEAKER_00]: taking off on that, both like a stunt, where he created just such a better line for Jay Kornick Millen.
- 48:40[SPEAKER_00]: Good job with the coverage on the back and two thousand homes to just pause for a second.
- 48:44[SPEAKER_00]: Nick Millen finishing had the second sack as well, and then the interception of granted horrible, horrible throw by touchable homes.
- 48:52[SPEAKER_00]: And technically the red zone, I think they're on the 22, but the violent intensive purpose is it was a red zone turn over that took points off the board.
- 48:59[SPEAKER_00]: that everyone's appointed to three who makes the one who doesn't make the one costing a stake wins a lot of times in these games and then for didn't chief stood.
- 49:07[SPEAKER_00]: But I have to give a shout out to Jekwant Macmillan.
- 49:09[SPEAKER_00]: I know that we had talked about with the Broncos depth.
- 49:12[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe if somebody offers a day to pick you at least consider it injury changes things I'm happy to have him here You still have a year of control after this as well.
- 49:20[SPEAKER_00]: I believe I think he was an exclusive rights-fraging this off season He'll be a restricted-fraging this year Can imagine Denver letting him go for anything less than a second round pick at this point So I don't think somebody give up the second round pick for one year left of the slot corner back So he's we're happy to see him play well.
- 49:38[SPEAKER_00]: He's been awesome a season.
- 49:39[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's also a good
- 49:41[SPEAKER_00]: reminder when like when I say I want to bring in another wide receiver for competition and some people will kick and scream that's not fair to the young players.
- 49:50[SPEAKER_00]: Guess what, young players?
- 49:51[SPEAKER_00]: Step up.
- 49:52[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what Jake Juan Macmillan did that year after the guy had replaced him and he held him off and has been incredible.
- 49:58[SPEAKER_00]: So iron sharpens iron.
- 50:00[SPEAKER_00]: These are professionals at the end of the day.
- 50:02[SPEAKER_00]: Good teams bring in young replacements and if you don't like it, play better.
- 50:07[SPEAKER_00]: Jake Juan Macmillan's done that despite the pedigree as far on the opposite end as it possibly can be.
- 50:12[SPEAKER_00]: So shout out Jake Juan Macmillan and shout out to the Broncos pass protection on the offensive line as well.
- 50:22[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, my favorites, like, throw for like improvement for next season was an incompletion this one.
- 50:27[SPEAKER_00]: It was one where there's like almost no space.
- 50:30[SPEAKER_00]: And he steps up into a crowd and fires it to Troy Franklin on the right side.
- 50:33[SPEAKER_00]: And he's getting hit.
- 50:35[SPEAKER_00]: The pocket is teeny tiny.
- 50:36[SPEAKER_00]: He stays square and delivers a catchable football.
- 50:38[SPEAKER_00]: Incompleted.
- 50:39[SPEAKER_00]: But like,
- 50:40[SPEAKER_00]: his ability to steal that space by climbing in there and it's still doing a catchable football.
- 50:44[SPEAKER_00]: You do that, we got, we're cooking them with Greek, cooking them with Greece, man.
- 50:48[SPEAKER_00]: But at the end of the game, past protection was unbelievable that 3rd and 15, they didn't sniff a bonex on that one.
- 50:53[SPEAKER_00]: He had all day to find his guys and he trusted his lines.
- 50:56[SPEAKER_00]: So it's obviously the semi-autical relationship, but had to give a shout out to the Broncos, offensive line of past protection.
- 51:03[SPEAKER_00]: Run blocking could have been better, not all on them, but the past protection was awesome.
- 51:10[SPEAKER_00]: that out there before we close up the show.
- 51:12[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the past blocking was really rough in the first half for the most part, but they cleaned it up, whether they figured out, you know, stuff with the chief defense, with a defense to front with what they're looking at, or whatever it was, they did bounce back and that's gonna have, which thinking I want to do, and that could be what they did.
- 51:29[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we heard Chris Jones talk about it about how the Broncos knew the call on defense on the one third down play offensively, and we've heard other teams and other games talk about no one with the chiefs we're gonna do.
- 51:40[SPEAKER_02]: They've been very predictable.
- 51:41[SPEAKER_02]: So that very well could be what led to the run blocking still up a lot to be desired, which man without a JK happens to Broncos, not to be at W Downer.
- 51:49[SPEAKER_02]: They have 50 years on something with the run game.
- 51:51[SPEAKER_02]: 2.8 yards per carry is nowhere, it's not acceptable, nowhere near close to acceptable.
- 51:57[SPEAKER_02]: You can't get 2.7 yards per carry out at your top back in RJ Harvey.
- 52:03[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not just throwing back small, but the offensive lines fall as well.
- 52:06[SPEAKER_02]: They have to figure something out with that going forward, but past protection was great.
- 52:10[SPEAKER_02]: And Jake quantum to me like a man, I remember when he was coming out.
- 52:14[SPEAKER_02]: I fully felt that he was worth a six or seventh round pick.
- 52:16[SPEAKER_02]: And when Denver brought him in as an undrived at the creation, I said, this guy, he's going to end up as a starter at some point in the league, either with the Bronco or elsewhere, and he just, he plays bigger than he is.
- 52:31[SPEAKER_02]: is he perfect by no means is he perfect but he is still a pretty good quality nickel corner and I'll be very curious to see what the Broncos do with him obviously he's not he's still a Richard refrigeration.
- 52:41[SPEAKER_02]: He's not gonna get an original round tender because that means that a team can sign him and that they don't own it and every any picks.
- 52:46[SPEAKER_02]: I'll be curious if they want to go they take the extra step and protect him by that first round tender or try him.
- 52:54[SPEAKER_02]: You know, temp teams a little bit with the second round pick, it can be like, you guys can take them.
- 52:58[SPEAKER_02]: You can sign up to an extension and give them this money and all this stuff like that, and we'll take a sec around pick.
- 53:05[SPEAKER_02]: I'm really curious what the Broncos do with that, if they kind of gave me a little bit, because even if somebody does go to sign them for, with a second round tent, or even a first round tenter.
- 53:13[SPEAKER_02]: Denver has the opportunity to match and that could help set the market for them and set the cost.
- 53:16[SPEAKER_02]: So, I'll be curious to see how Denver plays that out because man, he's been playing even playing great.
- 53:23[SPEAKER_02]: And man, he made a big play for it and one thing he mentioned a little bit ago that I just want to touch on real quick the turnovers Man get to tell no who fun go on the jugs machine if it what if he had if he caught nine dropped inner sections We wouldn't be talking about turnovers.
- 53:42[SPEAKER_02]: It's every single game.
- 53:44[SPEAKER_02]: He's dropped at least one and he's had two he had to drop in this one Well
- 53:49[SPEAKER_02]: One of them's kind of a little bit more wishy-washy with a drop-in in this section, but one of them was clear as day, and then he had to do a couple of games a couple of games to go, like, get him on the jugs machine, man.
- 53:58[SPEAKER_02]: He's been absolutely fantastic for the Broncos defense, but he could, just amazing that he could still take it to step further by just getting those, getting those interceptions.
- 54:09[SPEAKER_00]: I guess the stream is all of a sudden going to you know what, so this is a stream narrative issue because Eric, you are crystal clear to me and my internet says it's a hum and a long, so everyone's in all streamer has an issue.
- 54:20[SPEAKER_00]: I guess I'm glad it's happening at the end here.
- 54:22[SPEAKER_00]: So well, that's a sign to wrap it on up.
- 54:24[SPEAKER_00]: I appreciate everybody coming in here with all these super pets and everything.
- 54:29[SPEAKER_00]: Did want to get coached because good morning.
- 54:30[SPEAKER_00]: How about the Broncos?
- 54:31[SPEAKER_00]: It's a great day.
- 54:31[SPEAKER_00]: Have a wonderful day.
- 54:32[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, I was late.
- 54:34[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we were early, and we're gonna be early from now on, so hopefully we'll train you guys.
- 54:39[SPEAKER_00]: I'm still not trained, even I've been married for a bit, but my store come on it, as Ashley should, I'm a sloth.
- 54:45[SPEAKER_00]: But I appreciate everybody coming in here.
- 54:47[SPEAKER_00]: All the super chats, crushing it, Denver, Luke, David, Camilla, James, Milzo, Diego, Rob, coming in here, Perry West, Troy, Boer, and of course Coach Chris, you guys are killing it.
- 54:57[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry that the screen gets a little choppy here at the end, hopefully it's clean up here as we close out.
- 55:03[SPEAKER_00]: Man, Broncos 9 into victory over the chiefs chiefs five and five of the chance to go to five and six Hopefully yes, indeed with a buy week to after getting beat up by Broncos.
- 55:15[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I don't know if the stat is but teams I think only team so far this season They've only been two teams so far this season that have won following their Broncos game And it has been the cults and then the Texans also they beat the jags in that crazy game as well but
- 55:28[SPEAKER_00]: Man, great, great, great, great.
- 55:30[SPEAKER_00]: Nine and two, first place in the AFC West, first place in the AFC, Bonix looked like a viable, try this caliber quarterback in this game.
