**TNF on Prime - Raiders at Broncos**(-8.5, 43) 8:15 (3 Viewers)

[Insein]

This is worse than Broncos vs Jets

 

[oswizzle]

Dumpster fire

 

[travdogg]

The raiders deserve to lose this game because they insisted on letting a QB with one knee play.

... you know the backup is Kenny Pickett, right?

Pickett is better than hobbled Geno

Direct snaps to Jeanty (or even Mostert) might be better than Geno right now

 

[fred_1_15301]

Welp that might do it.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

802

 

[John123]

Best pass play of the game.

 

[Insein]

And he goes out of bounds.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Clearly offsides.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Raiders D looks exhausted.

 

[wgoldsph]

And he goes out of bounds.

I don't think he expected to be so open

 

[fred_1_15301]

I actually do hope the Raiders put in Pickett if they get the ball back. He's not good at much but he has actually been pretty good at 4th quarter comebacks.

 

[John123]

Raiders D looks exhausted.

Hopefully. Need a TD here

 

[wgoldsph]

Raiders D looks exhausted.

Even though they got the whole first quarter off

 

[The Frankman]

See? Short passes Nix can execute fine.

 

[travdogg]

I'm 99.9% sure Dobbins didn't get that 1st down on purpose.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Stuffed by Chinn

 

[chad in Indy]

Not sure what Dobbins was doing there. Slam it for the first. Way too much pause behind the LOS

 

[joey]

Geno questionable to return. Hopefully for the rest of the season.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Why did I watch this game? Sometimes you make choices in life that you just regret.

 

[joey]

He’s been doing Prime LeVeon Bell impersonations tonight. Never noticed he did that.

 

[John123]

Geno questionable to return. Hopefully for the rest of the season.

He might be a good choice if you're trying for a high draft pick.

 

[wgoldsph]

Why does it take ten seconds to call a run up the gut a blind man can see coming?

 

[Insein]

Please do not score a TD. Just get the first and go down..

 

[John123]

Why did I watch this game? Sometimes you make choices in life that you just regret.

Cause it's free with your Prime subscription! And you still overpaid.

 

[travdogg]

Starting to wonder if its a 1A/1B between Franklin and Sutton these days. Sutton has been an afterthought in this offense since week 4, other than when they are in major chase scripts.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Why did I watch this game? Sometimes you make choices in life that you just regret.

It’s a sickness.

 

[travdogg]

Well, I had the Broncos by 3 right.

 

[joey]

Why yes I am, thank you for asking.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Did you watch tonight’s Raiders Broncos game? You may be entitled to compensation.

 

[wgoldsph]

Well, I had the Broncos by 3 right.

I chased the points like a fool

 

[Smack Tripper]

Talk about getting BO-ned this week

 

[BladeRunner]

Did you watch tonight’s Raiders Broncos game? You may be entitled to compensation.

What a disaster of epic proportions for FF. Sutton and Bowers - 7.5 points total for the two.

We should file a class action lawsuit against the NFL, the Raider and the Broncos for such a lousy product. Thursday games should be banned and taken off the market immediately.

 

[John123]

Well, at least we won. And that's all I have to say about that.

 

[chad in Indy]

5 weeks now w/ no TD for Dobbins.

 

[The Frankman]

Pickett is better than hobbled Geno

he really isn't.

 

[travdogg]

I have to think Denver is gonna be a home underdog against KC next week. Like Chiefs -2.5 or something like that.

 

[Courtjester]

Honestly I can never remember feeling this sad after a Denver win. WRs can’t catch, Bo looks lost. Play calling is really bad

 

[ProstheticRGK]

It’ll be interesting. If KC Oline looks like they did against BUF, it could be just as ugly a game as this one.

They'll have at least Simmons back at LT, but probably everyone back.

 

[BladeRunner]

And apparently the Raiders forgot they had Brock Bowers on their team too. After last week's explosion I was expecting a little regression but this is absurd. it's almost as if Carrol planned the game to not feature or target Bowers at all.

 

[Stoneworker]

Reading this thread it never ceases to amaze the number of people who believe style points somehow matter in the NFL

You weren’t impressed by Carroll and Chip, and their three yards and a cloud of dust offensive scheme?!?!

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Thursday night football. Utter hot garbage. What a terrible game. By both teams

he really isn't.

Geno is not that great to begin with and then you take away his mobility, yea I'll take Pickett.

 

[steelwind]

What a disaster. I started both Dobbins and Sutton. Everywhere they were a start. Nix is terrible.

As much as I don't like Sean Payton, the Broncos defense has been excellent vs the Chiefs since he came to Denver.

There has been four Chiefs/Broncos game since:

KC 19-8 win
Denver 24-9 win
KC 16-14 win
Denver 38-0 win

We can throw out the last one since it was the last game of the season and the Chiefs were resting their starters. In the other three games, Denver held KC to 15 point per game, which is pretty damn good. Denver seems to play up and down to their level of competition (eking out wins over bottom feeders like both NY teams and the Raiders, and then winning at Philly and coming thisclose to winning at Indy), so I would expect them to be a lot better next week overall.

 

[kface]

At this point the shark move is to never start anyone on a thursday night game

I agree 100%. I like Denver a lot. And I think, even for all the hype their D gets, they’re still kinda underrated.

They do play schizophrenically, playing down to lesser opponents and stepping up against too teams. A lot of that seems like Payton’s playcalling going more conservative, to me.

KC, after struggling early with all the injuries on O, are rounding into form. Patty Mahomes looks as good as ever, and now with Rice back and Worthy and Brown healthy, I’m looking forward to seeing how they look against DEN D.

Add in the fact that KC can’t get any pressure right now with a 4-man rush, this could be one of those Bo Nix “whoooo!” games.

 

[Rubi]

Pete Carroll looked like a deer in the headlights
Geno looked liked the deer that got clipped by the oncoming headlights

 

[John123]

KC/Den should be really good. Both teams essentially coming off bye weeks. Plenty of time to game plan and rested players.
