After Week 6 -

Chargers 2-3

After Week 15
Chargers 11-3 (3 Games Up)
Broncos 8-6

Denver screwed around with their losses to OAK and WAS... but, overall SD and DEN share 3 similar losses - PIT / BAL / DEN-SD split.

Denver has unfortunately played during the last 8 weeks like a team that went through a total roster and philosophy overhaul. They captured lightning in a bottle earlier, but have been very sporadic since then.

Two weeks left for them to make their statement about what kind of a team they really are... I think they'll likely finish 9-7 and if they do, they should be able to advance.

That's very generous. They were very lucky in the early part of the season and sporadic throughout. The games against Cinci and NE should have been losses, but better lucky than good.

Every team has a game or two in a season that they win when others think they should have lost. They dominated Cincy for 59 minutes... they finally score, then Denver gets a crazy tip for a score. NE... Denver won the game. Simple.

And you guys got all of yours right at the beginning. Now they're playing like the team that they actually are.

They were very lucky wins. Just like Minnesota's win over San Fran was lucky. They still count but it doesn't mean they weren't extremely fortunate.

Either way... it proves that it happens to every team, every season. Some of you want to find a way that proves Denver is no better than a 4 win team.

Oh and as a Gator fan - you know all about lucky wins, you guys never should have beat the Hogs.

I agree the Gators were lucky that the Arkansas FG kicker is garbage and missed 2 kicks. Other than that, Florida won and was and is the better team.

Uh huh... those phanton PI calls and the fact that the officiating crew was suspended after that came had nothing to do with FL winning.

There were bad calls made against both teams and the officiating crew screwed up the prior week as well. The only indisputable FACT is that the Arkansas kicker missed 2 FGs that would have won the game. Other arguments are nothing more than :deevee:.

Donkholes division title ramblings and Sb run =

Mile High Mania 12-21-2009 12:48 PM

Well, nobody in their right mind should have had visions of a SB run even at 6-0...

I don't get McDaniels though, they struggle in the short game and I can't understand what it is that he dislikes about Peyton Hillis. You would think that a player as versatile as what he appears to be would have a nice role in this offense, esp with Moreno being the only legit RB at this point. Hillis can run, catch, block... I just don't get it.

Fukkn done son!!!! Stick a spork in them cause they don't deserve a real fork.:bang::bang::bang::bang::bang::bang:

Neither one "should" have been losses.
