Yeah. I was updating when it posted
GO BRONCOS

Let get this thing done.

YEH!!! GO BRONCOS!!

Alright, Denver, let’s do this thing. I’m gonna make some chili and cornbread in honor of the occasion.

You should send some of that to your Uncle in Washington.
Nnnnooooooo! CHili is reddish, and cornbread is yellow!

Carrots and Blueberries, man! Where is your team spirit!?!?? LOL

Hellooooooo Nurse!
No Powe...No go?

I hope BDawk will be ready for the Steelers next week…

Both the Bills and the Dolp[hins playing well today.

Since the Bills clubbed us, I like that they are leading the Pats at half.

So it's Orton and Stanzi against the world...
Which will happen first?

A. Kyle Orton interception
B. Von Miller sack
C. Tim Tebow pass attempt on first down

D.Tebow rushing TD
But that would have been too easy

Since there’s a good chance that will happen on the first drive. =)

Miller sack, he's due!

The sequence will look like this:

B causes A, repeat to infinity. Never C, ever. No C.

That's a very very tough question...
I sure hope we run, run, run today!

And blitz, blitz, blitz all day long!

I is scared. Nervousness abounds. Tears are already welling up.

Somebody say encouraging things so I can actually watch this game.

I'm still recovering from Gallo's blown layup last night!!

I only read about it. Sounded like a brutal ending though.

ugh.

that was bad.

Looks like we win...
Actually the only thing welling up in me is the Budweiser that I need to let out!

How in the world are you drinking right now sir? I couldn’t drink an alcoholic beverage right now if you paid me large sums of dough.

New Years – 1 Me – -4

HaHaHa...Stayed sober last night for today...Planning is everything! LMAO...

It is clear to me now that you are both older and wiser than I.

Yeah...I remeber those days of waking up with a headache and looking for some menudo...
Go Broncos! No negative vibes today fellas.

It’s been great so far – let’s finish it off with a win.

Pray to whomever, Elway, Tebow, Jesus, the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the football gods, the mighty beer tap, Mr Jack Daniels and his buddy J Beam. I just wanna win.

GO BRONCOS.

GO
BRONCOS!!

+100000000000000000000000000
I will have a couple of Jacks today...
Time to take the West....

we have waited for way too long for a championship.

Who's ready for some playoffs?!
Let's go deep and penetrate her...
and then watch the broncos game?
HA, HA, HA...

THIS!

GO BRONCOS!!!!

Not gonna watch the game…way too nervous. Gonna keep a good eye on SD/OAK and hope for a blowout by SD. Either way, we’re making the postseason. I just know it!

Lame.. the raider/charger game is going to be on tv here in CA..
they sold out a game...finally....

I’m pissed too.

Just means more dejected fader fans when their team chokes.
Which is always a good thing :)
Looks like the Colts will get the #1 pick
good even if Luck is the second coming no change to the league...
This is it folks!

TIME 2 KICK SOME BOOTY!
Go Broncos, Go Broncos, Go Broncos
Anybody else bugged by the fact....

That everywhere you go you hear “nobody in the afc west deserves playoffs”

But you don’t hear anything of the sort in the nfc East (a division with two 8-7 teams and fewer total wins than the afc west)
They are in an epic battle to the end.

Just wondering……

Haters gonna hate
That's why I think it will be great when both the raiders and the Broncos get in.
Raiders can get in if we do?
yes as a wild card
They can still be the second wild card team

if a couple other games go correctly. I don’t remember what those two games are right off hand, though.

That's because they're east coast teams.

The MSM loves them some east coast teams. Always have, always will.

This is it Bronco Fans!

TIME TO KICK SOME BOOTY!

I so hope the Jets loose playoffs with out either Ryan Brother would be awesome.
No blubber-mouths in the playoffs this year! Priceless...
Miami is up on the Jets 19-10

with 2:32 to go. The Jets have used all their time outs.

Fake Kyle Orton....returns!!!

“Hey remember a couple of weeks ago when I beat the Packers? Pffft I was just as schocked as you were!”

“If you lose to me, NO PLAYOFFS….Just like every other year I was here!!!”

LOLOLOLOL Check this out guys

He's got to be loving it...getting paid 6mil to play your old team!
YA THAT IS A CLASSIC ALREADY!
officials are going to help jets win two big calls on this drive
So who will we get today.The Broncos who suck for the first 3 Qt. only to come back,

or the Broncos who come out smoking and suck for the last 3qts? Maybe they can just play good for a whole game this time. I’m just glad that we have 2 ways of making the playoffs. If we don’t, I’m going to have me some serious depression.

The pound the ball all day...Ground and pound baby!
Clutch pick by Sanchez

see you later Rex!

Schanzez intercepted Miami will win one Ryan brother out!!!
oops Sanchez I mean
Lol @ Sanchez.
Don't worry Bill...We'll get you your 2nd seed...

Today's official...
Kansas City at Denver – Pete Morelli
Heaven help us.
Bad Ref?
Most of them are.
At least it isn't Jerome Boger.

He has to be high-school ref caliber, at best.

Yeah, that's true.
At least that means Mike Carey will not be doing the Bronco game!!
Pete Morelli's crew.
"Football is NOT a contact sport - it is a collision sport."

I hope VonDoom level KO today with A LOT of collision.

C'mon Sanchize...You got 2:38 to get 2 scores...So easy even a Tebow could do it!
After the Jets game Rex Ryan predicts that the Jets will win next years super bowl.
Just curious, If Indy and St. Louis both lose, who sucked enough for Luck?

If they both lose pretty sure Indy still gets the #1 pick!

Good, Hate to see Brandon rewarded with Luck
Lloyd may be a Chief next year if McDaniels gets the job...
I really think I'd be okay with that...

They’ll have to dump a quarter of their cap space into WR….They’d be good there, but way too much money to not have an elite guy (a. johnson, c. johnson, l. fitz type player)

True, but I hate to see the Colts get possibly another franchise QB after having Manning all these years…

They'll probably trade out of 1st with the Redskins...
No Way, Payton is finished
hahahaha Sanches' 4th pick !
oops
Hey! Sanchize has 2:21 to Tebow it!!!
I don't think so...
What a way for Jason Taylor to go out.

Good for him. He’s pretty much wrecking the Jets.

I like Jason Taylor....seems like a classy guy

Extremely nervous for today, as it has been a long time since we have won anything meaningful and clinching the division and going to the playoffs would be something considering how this season started. Got my brand new Tebow jersey on that wife got me for Christmas, let’s hope it is the missing link to the puzzle.

Getting ready!

Go Broncos!!!

So who starts at safety today for the Broncos?
Probably Carter and Moore
Bruton will start for Dawkins
A roll of duct tape can tackle better than either of them....

but I hear Carter has been prattissin’

Quick Predictions

We run for 150+ total yards rushing
Tebow has 3 total TD’s
Von and Doom get a sack
Moore and Champ get an INT
Broncos win…obviously ;)

That would be sweet Scotty...

Would certainly be nice to enjoy one of these games for a change without having to feel that gut wrenching pain of nerves twisted in a knot.

I hope it is Carter and Burton but all 3 need to play much better!
If Miller plays like last week Haggen should come in soon Miller was terrible last week
I think we'll get a lot of different looks today on defense...
Here comes Tebow! Errr...I mean Sanchize...
No He will Choke
Onsides kick?
Duh! No doubt with no timeouts left...
Wow

What an absolutely awful attempt at an onside kick.

ballgame right there…nice to see the jets not make the playoffs.

Brandon Marshall! Saves the day for Miami...
HE CAUGHT IT!!!!!
it's karma

for Rex Ryan’s arrogance, no one cares about him, good riddance

It is SOOOOOO classless to use another team's TD celebration in mockery.

I want to shoot guys who salute in Denver. Or Tebow. And Detroit is the worst about it. Suh just did the Title Belt thing. Too bad you’re playing the SCRUBS, dude.

I have lost a lot of respect for Suh over the last couple months.
me too.

i was kind of a fan at the beginning but it’s starting to look like he’s just an immature horse’s butt.

Brandon Marshall just saved the game for the Dolphins.
Did Jared Allen break the record?
Was stopped at 22, last I heard.
Still a huge accomplishment. Glad he's not in KC anymore lol
I have no pity for Urlacher after the trash he was talking about Tebow
that's what I told Vikings fans on their blog barely
Now the Titans are choking
I don't get the part of not protecting the ball with the lead...
I just HATE having the late game.

The game before us ALWAYS seems to go long and I miss the beginning of the Broncos game. Is it too much trouble to just kick the late game back a half hour so we’re pretty sure all the games will start on time? I’d rather see the Broncos stretching and hear the announcers babbling than to see the end of any other game.

OMG Texans are getting ready to tie it up on CBS. I might miss the start of the Broncos game
MOTHER FIGHTJNJORNTJONGPOUIHAOIJNKJN
Yes. Go for 2 to win, Texans.
Texans going for 2!
One way or another its over
Gotta Love

Kubiak. At least I do.

Wow, they're going for 2, Thank you Texans, Ballsy move
NoOOOOOOOOOOOOOO false start, now they're going to kick it
That's right. He goes for 2 because he wants to see the Broncos game, too.

Kubes has our back.

What an a**clown.
Wow. Texans screw themselves.
Wow.

Did that just happen.

that's why I don't believe in Jake Delhomme EVER
What happened to Yates?
he played well

but then Kubes pulled him, smart play because the Texans are a snakebit team

Somebody needs to punch the center in the mouth.

That snap was pathetic.

think it was rigged?
by the illuminati :O
Why would you still go for 2 when you just got a 5 yard penalty? That was weird
Game doesn't matter to them

Get it over with everybody healthy rather than risk injury on OT…..

They had no reason to play for a tie and OT
I don't know who the Titans winning will effect, but man would I be upset to have seen that!
Oh well, lets get our game on
COME ON! This game is over! Switch to the BRONCOS GAME!
thankfully we don't start until 2:15
No more QB's for the Rams?

Lol.

So provided we win

Who would you rather play in the playoffs – Steelers or Ravens

Steelers with injured Roethlisberger.
Steelers

If for no other reason than that the Ravens always stomp us in the mudhole.

Looks like it'll be the Steelers...I would rather have the Ravens come and get revenge for the last 2 loses to them...
Come on. Nobody wants to see Schwartz screw up another handshake
Brandstater sighting!
SHANNON SHARPE! SHut your piehole and let's go to the BRONCOS GAME!
Screw the Jets Boomer

no one cares

Come on, Denver Fans....

STAY CLASSY with Orton. I know he didn’t play well for us…..but no reason to treat him like Cutler.

Agreed, hope they're not so classless as to boo him during the intro's.
he should be treated like every other rival: an enemy. Period.
The louder the better! Be classy after the game is over!!
He plays for the Chiefs, he is dead to me
You mean..."Down goes Orton" would be inappropriate?
No but booing is just tacky
But "Oops he threw another INT" is OK?
Yeah, game time
GOOOOO BRONCOS!!!!!!!
He did say he didn't care about the fans, but I would not boo him at introductions
see ya later, guys.

I’m off the gameday threads ala Boydy.

Time to make a Drinkie Poh
