Your assumption that we can properly evaluate our defensive players is quaint

The more I think about it...
The worse that three-minute debacle was.
We were going to get the fucking ball back after the half. If we pick up one first down on that second-to-last drive, we go into the half with a seven-point lead (at least) and we’re on the offensive again.
Bad coaching and bad decision-making.
Let's Go, Schaub
You got your inevitable INT out of the way early. Win now.

Hah.
I love challenging on important plays instead of questionable calls. But in this case, the two sort of coincide.
His whole ass was down before the ball came out.

We always remember to give Schaub a free INT per game
We always forget to include Slatons fumble per game
The strong do what they have to do; the weak accept what they have to accept

4 helmets lost : 1 fumble lost.

Tough to do
When your team is incapable of scoring points off of turnovers.
It baffles me how dead our offense gets when they actually get good field position. Kubiak’s Broncos always had the same problem.
i cant believe lewis had the smarts not to challenge that. props to him.
