Broncos beat the Bolts 20-17…

Posted on | September 18, 2005 | No Comments

0-2 now in 2005. 2 4th Quarter leads lost now on the year. Giants come into town for a Sunday Night game next week.

Elam has another game winning field goal, Brees looks like he’s on his way out with another interception and 175 passing yards. He won’t be out because he wants to its because our offensive line has crumbled and allowed another 4 sacks. Brees is not the mobile quarterback that Plummer is. He needs his time in the pocket. When he gets time… he made the plays.

And where was LT in the passing plan? Were these the 1 in 3 plays that Brees was running from defenders? LT’s receptions always have seemed to come when Brees was under pressure. For all those who said Gate was missing and that was the problem last week… can now shut up. Gates got his receptions, but didn’t make a major difference in the game.

In one way, we were lucky. The Bronco’s score should have been a lot higher. 2 missed field goals and two touchdowns reversed due to stupid penalties on the Bronco’s part.
