5 field goals is pitiful.

His decisions suck. You don't allow your OC to keep running the ball inside the 5. He's a great DC. He's a poor coach.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.
DeMeco won't be fired. Nick Caley and Nick Caserio should absolutely be fired immediately.

Not quite ready to dump DeMeco but he's already hired 2 OCs. He's the head coach and has to answer for all of it. If he's incapable of finding the right OC, that's a major problem.
Is it bad that I'm just emotionally immune from these kinds of losses since 2002? Just it is what it is now

Exactly. You're the HC. You're the issue.

Why hasn't CJ learned how to complete a proper slide? Pathetic.
It's too bad Cary didn't win the legal battle. He could have sold the team to a competent ownership group.
That was bad football, I hate how much the NFL is just a field goal fest

Not a good slide but that penalty should have stood.

Bro they were down one score against a team with a losing record and a back up QB

Why is Davis Mills still our backup? There are so many serviceable backup QBs out there and we still have this bill O'Brien special? Wtf?

I had season tickets the first 15 years. Lived and died with this team. Wife hated when we lost (which was often) cause I'd be in a bad mood at least the rest of Sunday and often into Monday.
Now, I turn down literally free tickets several times a year, watch from my couch and usually just shake my head and go on about my day when they crater.
Did Caley forget Nico Collins exists in the second half? Regardless of a backup QB playing the play calling was so brain dead
from day 1 DeMeco said he wanted to have a great defense...and he's got one
but that's not the way in the NFL...and hasn't been for a long time

Let's be real, Davis had just as much of a chance as Cj
Maybe, but we easily could have left the Broncos with 15 or so seconds and no timeouts to try to get in FG range.
That sequence guaranteed the Broncos would have plenty of time, field position, and timeouts to work with. The offense was struggling. Even if we'd picked up a first down or two there wasn't going to be enough time left to get down the field into FG range.
I can accept we don't have enough talent on offense and an inept play caller. Bungling strategic decisions like that falls on the head coach.
I mean, look at Mike Elko as an example. He's a great defensive coach, but he allows his offensive coordinator to do their job, and he understands that in today's game, you need to have a dynamic offense.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

That will do it. Gameover. Defense loses their head when it mattered.
Once again, this loss has NOTHING to do with the defense
Uh brother. The linebacking corps completely losing contain in the most critical situation is absolutely worthy of being called out.
That's a far cry from blaming them for the loss.
Two chances on first and goal from the one. 6 points.

As I predicted earlier, You absolutely could not script a better Janice McNair Ring of **** game than this.
It will be interesting to see how they top this when Tommy Boy puts himself in.
But mercifully I'll probably be breathing dirt by then so I'll just have to imagine it. Next game will probably provide an adequate blueprint.
Honestly I don't think Demeco has a clue regarding anything remotely having to do with offense.
Either that or he's not allowed to chime in.
Either way this team is a joke.

In no way is this game on the defense, but man they lose all fundamentals when the game is on the line
Doesn't matter what the stats say, that is not the sign of a good defense.
Everyone needs to be fired.

It's why it is shocking he went inexperienced OC again. It was clear he needed a tried and true OC. Makes me wonder if he was worried an experienced OC would see he's in over his head.
Caley was a Caserio hire
That's the problem

Desired play callers almost always make a move to become head coaches, not lateral moves in the hope that they'll still be successful.
Even if we nabbed a OC who did well here he'd leave to be a head coach. The ideal situation if it works out is to have a head coach who also call plays. No worries about them being poached.
The nice thing is I can officially not worry about watching nfl games this season.
Random thought…with the NFL being a ratings juggernaut, why would Fox not air a game in the 3:00 slot? I see this from time to time. Some rando drama series called "Doc" airing here.

They outscored Texans 11-0 in 4th quarter. You can discount that if you want, but they've had 4 come back victories in the last 5 games, and in the last 6 games, they have outscored opponents in 4th quarter 86-20.
This pattern continued today and it is making the Broncos a serious threat to anyone.
Only a combined 4 points for their 2 losses as well.
This team has been an absolute embarrassment since its founding. You can count the number of quality wins in its history with one hand.

They don't want to go head to head to head with the Bills/Chiefs. This game draws more viewers than most wildcard games.
Caley gotta go. Caserio has one more chance, I think, to get the oline right.
I thought it had something to do with the local team playing first? Or is it completely up to Fox local?

Absent being willing to pay or trade for Tunsil like talent I don't see how they can fix the OL in a year.
Then again if Caserio feels the sword of Damocles dangling maybe he starts making BOB moves at the future's expense knowing he wouldn't have to worry about it if they didn't immediately work out.
In the bleak humor department part of the reason we let Tunsil go was the $20 million tab, but we signed Cam as his replacement for $12 million (virtually all signing bonus) and traded him away for nothing after a few games.
