Speaker 1 (00:00):
But we're gonna talk to our pal romy Bean from
CBS for the lead sports anchor. Follow her on Twitter,
romy underscore Bean, and she, of course does a Coach
Prime show every week. Did you have Xen a Monday
Live Tonight Rome or with the Weird Week? Did it
get changed around?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I did, but I went we had a Tyler Pulumbus
on the show with the Weird Week. The guys were like,
its hard to get a guy on a Thursday game.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Yeah, Okay, I'm sure Tyler had plenty of good stuff
to say. But just in general, as you were at
the game yesterday in the locker room and then kind
of around town today and doing your thing, what's your
take on the Broncos loss and how the first three
quarters went as well as how the fourth quarter played out,
(00:51):
especially for the offense.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, and I think when you talk lost, we got
we got two losses to talk about, right, the paps
and then the offense. So starting with the offense, it
was one of those things where it's a bit frustrating,
but you know, you see them come to life in
the fourth quarter, which is good. You could argue that
a lot of that's garbage tied. The Chargers are playing
(01:15):
prevent defense. That's not wrong, but it has come to
a point where this is now the third game at
a sixth for they're scoreless in the first half and
that's simply not sustainable and they have to find ways
to get going. And Sean Payton certainly seems open to it, right,
It doesn't seem like he'd shut down the idea of
trying a little more uptempo. They tried it in the
(01:36):
game yesterday, right, and Jamonte fumbled and then there was
a penalty from the offensive line. So not like they're
not trying. But I think that they got to get
the run game going, and I'll be excited to see
Odric Estimate kind of get worked in there a little
bit more. But to me, you know, Bonix, obviously he's
got a million things going on. He's a rookie. These
are long plays. We know all this, and a little
(01:58):
more reliance on run game, I think we could really
help him a lot, settle in and just kind of
kind of get going. And some of the catches, you know,
Ball will he knows what to say, He'll take the blame.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
But some of them, you know, I think his receivers got.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
To help him out a little bit. I personally would
like to see a little bit more Devon Vley like,
he definitely gets a lot of Tim Patrick vibes. He's
out every time he gets an opportunity, he really makes
an impact and he finds a way to catch the ball.
And so, uh, that's the guy that I'm looking forward
to that I'm hoping we see a little bit more.
But that's the one big lass. And then you got
(02:35):
Pastor Tan, which is anyway you spin it, that you're
not just losing the best player on your team, you're
losing one of the best players in the NFL. Right now,
how does the defense adapt? I think one of the
most interesting things I heard in the locker room yesterday
was Riley Moss. I asked him about it, and he
said he described it as a dark cloud. He said
it was like a dark cloud over the defense or
(02:56):
the entire first half. And they went in the locker
room and they were like, look, we got to move forward.
We can't let this drag on. And they came out
in the second half and you saw a different defense.
So I feel pretty positive about what we're going to
see from them. It's going to look different. But I
guess if Pat had to miss at any point in
the season, it's a lot better now than the miss
you know k C. Baltimore than meant to miss that stretch.
(03:18):
It's if you want a silver lining that one.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Well, speaking of sea about civil linings, I know the
first half wasn't that great, but the Broncos only gave
up three points in the third quarter and that was it,
and they pretty much shut out the Chargers. And I
don't want to go all do them and gloom with you, Romy,
but I want to focus on some positive things. Let's
talk about that defense and how they played in the
(03:43):
second half. What was your thought process on watching them
play in executing the second half.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yeah, I mean I thought I thought they really started
to figure out how to bring a little bit of pressure.
In that first half. It was you know, Pat went
down and they it was it affected everything, right, They couldn't.
They weren't bringing the pressures like usual, bring that extra guy.
And I think there was a little bit of an
adjustment period for everyone. But I did think it was
very telling and positive to hear Riley Moss say we
(04:10):
went in a half time and They're like, look, we
can't let this keep spiraling. So they really regrouped, and
then you saw the guys getting a lot more pressure.
Guys are getting sacks. Nick Benito has been doing really
well with four games in a row, right, four game
sack streak. So I liked how they adjusted, how they
adapted to it. You simply can't replace a guy like that,
(04:32):
but for the defense to then kind of get their
emotions back together, rally, kind of go through the adversity
and figure out how to come out, not take a
whole game to get through it. Even right, just a
half was really solid, and then you look at coming
up in New Orleans. It's a far inferior your quarterback
compared to Justin Herbert. So you should feel good about
(04:54):
what they can, about what they're gonna do. And so
I think you look at the second half, that's the
Denver defense that we have own all year. And you
got to give Riley Moss a ton of credit too
as well. Right, he's just been fantastic, continues to be fantastic.
He'll have an elevated role probably this week right now,
taking on the number one receiver, and I'm looking forward
(05:14):
to seeing how he handles that because he's been really,
really solid.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
All year, Well, that number one receiver could very much
be in question. Chris Alave with a concussion, and then
we hear that Rashid Shihied is dealing with an I
don't want to say an ankle, so they could be
without their top two receivers, and then that kind of
neutralizes a bit not having PS two. But as they
go to New Orleans with the short week, how much
(05:39):
of a step can an offense struggle, you know, not
only through three quarters, but it struggle at times throughout
this entire year to really find their footing. How much
can they, I guess, improve versus just find what worked
well because they're not gonna have really no practice today
and walk through tomorrow, walk through Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Yeah, it'll beka. I think that's so interesting because in general,
Thursday night games tend to be not very entertaining, tend
to be not very high scoring. Guys are sore, their
bodies are like just getting right. So it's one of
those games where it's hard to imagine an offensive explosion
outside of the fact that the Saints are struggling and
perhaps they have you know, they can kind of exploit
(06:19):
some things, but I think in general, on the short week,
I don't necessarily look to see them take a huge
leap in that sense because I just think just the
history of Thursday night football. However, Sean Payton even said
today right, Thursday night games show that with that fatigue,
you have to get off to a faster start. So
(06:39):
I think it's going to be interesting to see how
they approach that. How do they approach the game. It's
going to be loud indoors, right, they don't I feel
like they pump fake noise in there, even though I
don't know if they do or not. But I think
it's just trying to continue what they've been doing some
things at work, and maybe a little more. Troy Franklin
early a little of mon vele early again in the
(07:00):
run game. Really pressed that run game early to try
and impose your will a little bit, demoralize the Saints
a little bit, because it's hard on Thursday nights. I
think everybody's fatigued and tired. It's hard to imagine a
big explosion. But you just want to see, in my opinion,
just something more, right, give me ten points in the first.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Half, Well, there was a guy who showed up Sunday
that just a week ago, there was so many Broncos
fans really down on him, and I'm sure he was
down on hisself. And that's Troy Franklin so catching his
first touchdown of the regular season and is his young
rookie season. What do you think that now does for
(07:38):
his confidence in himself, but more importantly the coaching staff
confidence in putting Troy on Franklin on the field more.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, I think that's a huge point, Nick, And it's
massive because he was struggling. He was getting a lot
of flack from people, and you know that, I'm sure
his confidence was taking a big hit. So it's like
anything in sports, right, you got to the puck go
in the net. You gotta see the ball going the
hoop like you gotta catch it and get in the
end zone.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
And so I think that's massive for him.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
He obviously does have a great connection with Bowe and
there is comfortability there and so I think that that's
something that hopefully they can continue to utilize as both
continues to kind of find ways to get more comfortable
in this offense. And so I think that's what everybody
was Maybe there was too much pressure on Troy Franklin
to produce too much, you know, too soon as a rookie. Realistically,
(08:33):
because he did have this connection with bon Nixon even
in camp, there was a lot of pressure on him
and those expectations weren't really being met. So I think
this is one of those things. While it might just
seem like one touchdown, could certainly be a turning point
for this young man, and I think it could be fantastic,
and hopefully they continue to put him out there and
then continue to keep him out there for a large
portion of the game, keep building his confidence and let
(08:55):
that that Duck connection actually come to fruition. Here oh the.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
NFL Ronnie being with us here for another couple of minutes.
Broncos Country Tonight is where it's sporty, pickle bar and
grill and Centennial like we are every Monday. You can
also check her out at Exfinity Monday Live there. They
do that at the Viewhouse in Centennial, about five minutes
from where we are, and she always has a fun
guest as well. Most Mondays during the football season, it's
a Broncos player when it's not a short week, and
(09:20):
hopefully after a win if they can come away with
a w you'll get another Broncos player next week. But
I'm curious before we ask you about your power coach
Prime who you talk to every single week there for
CBS four, and you guys do a great job with
that show as well. When Sean Payton is making this return,
with apologies to Connor McGovern, planninggains, the team that drafted
him and all these other players that have ties to
(09:41):
the Saints and coaches have ties to the Saints, Sean
Payton changed everything about that organization, mostly for the better,
and what he Andrew Brees were able to do was
certainly remarkable from a franchise that had never even won
a playoff game. So what do you think the reception
will be like for Sean on Thursday, who we know
is still just focused on trying to bounce back from
(10:03):
a tough loss and win a football game.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I think he's going to get a warm welcome. I
know he said today you didn't expect any flowers.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Or anything nice, but I do think he's still going
to get a warm welcome, a warm reception, especially with
the fanfare that's going on there with Drew Brees and
obviously the two of them.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Together, really, right, did a lot for that city and
that team at a really really horrible time, right that
was going on, and to win a Super Bowl. So
I think that he will be welcomed with open arms.
I do think it's different, though, like than when a
player returns. Obviously all of us here kind of think
about the Peyton Manning return to Indianapolis. I think it's
(10:41):
a little bit different for a head coach emotionally mentally,
you know, right, and you got your first fifteen so
even if he is emotional, that part's scripted, so you're
good and by then you're probably good and ready to go.
But I'm sure he'll have more emotions than he left onto.
But I think it'll be a nice warm reception, just
with everything else going on as well.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
All right, romy I know you were there at the
game Saturday. I saw you in the press box. What
do you make of the outcome of the Buffs game?
Because it was very interesting in a winnable game for
your CU Buffs, but it didn't come up that way.
So what do you think about Coach Primes and the
Buffs playing at eight fifteen any evening?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I did eight fifteen games.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
And another one. You get another one coming, you know, Yes, Like.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I and somebody had told me, oh, I think Cincinnati's
gonna be one thirty. So I was like ready to go,
and I'm like, oh, come on, this is garbage. Hey,
you can go.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
You can go to the Nuggets Nuggets game before that,
they played the Clippers at three that day. Both y'all
can double up and go Nuggets and then head up
to Boulter.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Right now, we'll just roll right into the Broncos game,
Like why not?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Yeah, the eight fifteen kicks are brutal.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
It's a lot of waiting for the guys like that.
But I think when you look at this Kansas State
game that there's certainly I think, really two ways you
can look at it. But I think that you can
be disappointed. Obviously, the line play was subpar. That continues
to be a problem. But the run game that was
a problem, and there was definitely a big problem committing
(12:20):
to it in the Kansas State game, and we had
seen them commit to it earlier, so it was earlier
in the season, so it's interesting that it kind of
went away. But I think that the other way to
look at it is that, I mean the Buffs almost
could have won this game, and they were down your
best player on offense, your best player on defense in
Travis Hunter. Then lose Jimmy Horn, you lose a Maari
(12:43):
and Miller, they were short a lot of guys. The
fact that Shador Standers really almost willed this team to
a win, there's something to be said for that. And
I think that there's still a lot of wins that
these Buffs, this Buff team is going to get. I
think all of a sudden, right with this, your Big
twelve championship, all that stuff a little bit more out
of reach now. But when you take a step back
(13:03):
and you look at a team that had one win
two years ago, they had four wins last year, I
still think they're on track to win seven or eight,
which is pretty impressive when you look at again the
big picture of CU. I know people are unning ten
to eleven, they won college football playoffs, all of that stuff,
But I think if you look at it a little
bit realistically, they're still on track to do really well
(13:25):
this season, to win eight plus games, and I think
the season is going to be interesting how it shakes out. Arizona,
all of a sudden is a little more winnable than
I thought it was a few weeks ago, So I
think it's going to be interesting to see how they respond.
That's gonna be a big picture. They got to get
back to running the ball, and you know Shador has
to there are times where he takes all at five sacks,
so I think that's the one, you know, kind of
(13:46):
flaw in his game. Is football. IQ's fantastic, but you
got to work on that where you know, holding on
to it a little too.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Long at times.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So it'll be interesting to see how it evolves as
the season goes on. But I think that I've been
impressed with this team's kind of brilliancy and finding ways
to improve a little bit each week.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Romie, you're the best.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
We appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Know you've had a long weekend and then obviously your
show tonight, and I'm sure you're not done. We appreciate
you carving on a few minutes for us here on
Broncos Country Night, and we'll make sure everybody's following you
at romy Underscore being and I know you'll be in
New Orleans as well, so we will see you in
the big easy.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Thanks so much, Thank you guys, and becam counting on
you to show me the town in the New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Oh, I know where where to find some really good,
really good deals on some oysters. And maybe you'll get
a hurricane or a hand grenade, but then that might
affect your work on Thursday, so maybe we stay away
from those because I can mess with you, so it'll
still be fun regardless. Hopefully the Broncos will go there
and get a win.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Thanks romy all right, Thanks Gays.
But we're gonna talk to our pal romy Bean from
CBS for the lead sports anchor. Follow her on Twitter,
romy underscore Bean, and she, of course does a Coach
Prime show every week. Did you have Xen a Monday
Live Tonight Rome or with the Weird Week? Did it
get changed around?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I did, but I went we had a Tyler Pulumbus
on the show with the Weird Week. The guys were like,
its hard to get a guy on a Thursday game.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Yeah, Okay, I'm sure Tyler had plenty of good stuff
to say. But just in general, as you were at
the game yesterday in the locker room and then kind
of around town today and doing your thing, what's your
take on the Broncos loss and how the first three
quarters went as well as how the fourth quarter played out,
(00:51):
especially for the offense.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Yeah, and I think when you talk lost, we got
we got two losses to talk about, right, the paps
and then the offense. So starting with the offense, it
was one of those things where it's a bit frustrating,
but you know, you see them come to life in
the fourth quarter, which is good. You could argue that
a lot of that's garbage tied. The Chargers are playing
(01:15):
prevent defense. That's not wrong, but it has come to
a point where this is now the third game at
a sixth for they're scoreless in the first half and
that's simply not sustainable and they have to find ways
to get going. And Sean Payton certainly seems open to it, right,
It doesn't seem like he'd shut down the idea of
trying a little more uptempo. They tried it in the
(01:36):
game yesterday, right, and Jamonte fumbled and then there was
a penalty from the offensive line. So not like they're
not trying. But I think that they got to get
the run game going, and I'll be excited to see
Odric Estimate kind of get worked in there a little
bit more. But to me, you know, Bonix, obviously he's
got a million things going on. He's a rookie. These
are long plays. We know all this, and a little
(01:58):
more reliance on run game, I think we could really
help him a lot, settle in and just kind of
kind of get going. And some of the catches, you know,
Ball will he knows what to say, He'll take the blame.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
But some of them, you know, I think his receivers got.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
To help him out a little bit. I personally would
like to see a little bit more Devon Vley like,
he definitely gets a lot of Tim Patrick vibes. He's
out every time he gets an opportunity, he really makes
an impact and he finds a way to catch the ball.
And so, uh, that's the guy that I'm looking forward
to that I'm hoping we see a little bit more.
But that's the one big lass. And then you got
(02:35):
Pastor Tan, which is anyway you spin it, that you're
not just losing the best player on your team, you're
losing one of the best players in the NFL. Right now,
how does the defense adapt? I think one of the
most interesting things I heard in the locker room yesterday
was Riley Moss. I asked him about it, and he
said he described it as a dark cloud. He said
it was like a dark cloud over the defense or
(02:56):
the entire first half. And they went in the locker
room and they were like, look, we got to move forward.
We can't let this drag on. And they came out
in the second half and you saw a different defense.
So I feel pretty positive about what we're going to
see from them. It's going to look different. But I
guess if Pat had to miss at any point in
the season, it's a lot better now than the miss
you know k C. Baltimore than meant to miss that stretch.
(03:18):
It's if you want a silver lining that one.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Well, speaking of sea about civil linings, I know the
first half wasn't that great, but the Broncos only gave
up three points in the third quarter and that was it,
and they pretty much shut out the Chargers. And I
don't want to go all do them and gloom with you, Romy,
but I want to focus on some positive things. Let's
talk about that defense and how they played in the
(03:43):
second half. What was your thought process on watching them
play in executing the second half.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yeah, I mean I thought I thought they really started
to figure out how to bring a little bit of pressure.
In that first half. It was you know, Pat went
down and they it was it affected everything, right, They couldn't.
They weren't bringing the pressures like usual, bring that extra guy.
And I think there was a little bit of an
adjustment period for everyone. But I did think it was
very telling and positive to hear Riley Moss say we
(04:10):
went in a half time and They're like, look, we
can't let this keep spiraling. So they really regrouped, and
then you saw the guys getting a lot more pressure.
Guys are getting sacks. Nick Benito has been doing really
well with four games in a row, right, four game
sack streak. So I liked how they adjusted, how they
adapted to it. You simply can't replace a guy like that,
(04:32):
but for the defense to then kind of get their
emotions back together, rally, kind of go through the adversity
and figure out how to come out, not take a
whole game to get through it. Even right, just a
half was really solid, and then you look at coming
up in New Orleans. It's a far inferior your quarterback
compared to Justin Herbert. So you should feel good about
(04:54):
what they can, about what they're gonna do. And so
I think you look at the second half, that's the
Denver defense that we have own all year. And you
got to give Riley Moss a ton of credit too
as well. Right, he's just been fantastic, continues to be fantastic.
He'll have an elevated role probably this week right now,
taking on the number one receiver, and I'm looking forward
(05:14):
to seeing how he handles that because he's been really,
really solid.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
All year, Well, that number one receiver could very much
be in question. Chris Alave with a concussion, and then
we hear that Rashid Shihied is dealing with an I
don't want to say an ankle, so they could be
without their top two receivers, and then that kind of
neutralizes a bit not having PS two. But as they
go to New Orleans with the short week, how much
(05:39):
of a step can an offense struggle, you know, not
only through three quarters, but it struggle at times throughout
this entire year to really find their footing. How much
can they, I guess, improve versus just find what worked
well because they're not gonna have really no practice today
and walk through tomorrow, walk through Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Yeah, it'll beka. I think that's so interesting because in general,
Thursday night games tend to be not very entertaining, tend
to be not very high scoring. Guys are sore, their
bodies are like just getting right. So it's one of
those games where it's hard to imagine an offensive explosion
outside of the fact that the Saints are struggling and
perhaps they have you know, they can kind of exploit
(06:19):
some things, but I think in general, on the short week,
I don't necessarily look to see them take a huge
leap in that sense because I just think just the
history of Thursday night football. However, Sean Payton even said
today right, Thursday night games show that with that fatigue,
you have to get off to a faster start. So
(06:39):
I think it's going to be interesting to see how
they approach that. How do they approach the game. It's
going to be loud indoors, right, they don't I feel
like they pump fake noise in there, even though I
don't know if they do or not. But I think
it's just trying to continue what they've been doing some
things at work, and maybe a little more. Troy Franklin
early a little of mon vele early again in the
(07:00):
run game. Really pressed that run game early to try
and impose your will a little bit, demoralize the Saints
a little bit, because it's hard on Thursday nights. I
think everybody's fatigued and tired. It's hard to imagine a
big explosion. But you just want to see, in my opinion,
just something more, right, give me ten points in the first.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Half, Well, there was a guy who showed up Sunday
that just a week ago, there was so many Broncos
fans really down on him, and I'm sure he was
down on hisself. And that's Troy Franklin so catching his
first touchdown of the regular season and is his young
rookie season. What do you think that now does for
(07:38):
his confidence in himself, but more importantly the coaching staff
confidence in putting Troy on Franklin on the field more.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, I think that's a huge point, Nick, And it's
massive because he was struggling. He was getting a lot
of flack from people, and you know that, I'm sure
his confidence was taking a big hit. So it's like
anything in sports, right, you got to the puck go
in the net. You gotta see the ball going the
hoop like you gotta catch it and get in the
end zone.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
And so I think that's massive for him.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
He obviously does have a great connection with Bowe and
there is comfortability there and so I think that that's
something that hopefully they can continue to utilize as both
continues to kind of find ways to get more comfortable
in this offense. And so I think that's what everybody
was Maybe there was too much pressure on Troy Franklin
to produce too much, you know, too soon as a rookie. Realistically,
(08:33):
because he did have this connection with bon Nixon even
in camp, there was a lot of pressure on him
and those expectations weren't really being met. So I think
this is one of those things. While it might just
seem like one touchdown, could certainly be a turning point
for this young man, and I think it could be fantastic,
and hopefully they continue to put him out there and
then continue to keep him out there for a large
portion of the game, keep building his confidence and let
(08:55):
that that Duck connection actually come to fruition. Here oh the.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
NFL Ronnie being with us here for another couple of minutes.
Broncos Country Tonight is where it's sporty, pickle bar and
grill and Centennial like we are every Monday. You can
also check her out at Exfinity Monday Live there. They
do that at the Viewhouse in Centennial, about five minutes
from where we are, and she always has a fun
guest as well. Most Mondays during the football season, it's
a Broncos player when it's not a short week, and
(09:20):
hopefully after a win if they can come away with
a w you'll get another Broncos player next week. But
I'm curious before we ask you about your power coach
Prime who you talk to every single week there for
CBS four, and you guys do a great job with
that show as well. When Sean Payton is making this return,
with apologies to Connor McGovern, planninggains, the team that drafted
him and all these other players that have ties to
(09:41):
the Saints and coaches have ties to the Saints, Sean
Payton changed everything about that organization, mostly for the better,
and what he Andrew Brees were able to do was
certainly remarkable from a franchise that had never even won
a playoff game. So what do you think the reception
will be like for Sean on Thursday, who we know
is still just focused on trying to bounce back from
(10:03):
a tough loss and win a football game.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I think he's going to get a warm welcome. I
know he said today you didn't expect any flowers.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Or anything nice, but I do think he's still going
to get a warm welcome, a warm reception, especially with
the fanfare that's going on there with Drew Brees and
obviously the two of them.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Together, really, right, did a lot for that city and
that team at a really really horrible time, right that
was going on, and to win a Super Bowl. So
I think that he will be welcomed with open arms.
I do think it's different, though, like than when a
player returns. Obviously all of us here kind of think
about the Peyton Manning return to Indianapolis. I think it's
(10:41):
a little bit different for a head coach emotionally mentally,
you know, right, and you got your first fifteen so
even if he is emotional, that part's scripted, so you're
good and by then you're probably good and ready to go.
But I'm sure he'll have more emotions than he left onto.
But I think it'll be a nice warm reception, just
with everything else going on as well.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
All right, romy I know you were there at the
game Saturday. I saw you in the press box. What
do you make of the outcome of the Buffs game?
Because it was very interesting in a winnable game for
your CU Buffs, but it didn't come up that way.
So what do you think about Coach Primes and the
Buffs playing at eight fifteen any evening?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
I did eight fifteen games.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
And another one. You get another one coming, you know, Yes, Like.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I and somebody had told me, oh, I think Cincinnati's
gonna be one thirty. So I was like ready to go,
and I'm like, oh, come on, this is garbage. Hey,
you can go.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
You can go to the Nuggets Nuggets game before that,
they played the Clippers at three that day. Both y'all
can double up and go Nuggets and then head up
to Boulter.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Right now, we'll just roll right into the Broncos game,
Like why not?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Yeah, the eight fifteen kicks are brutal.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
It's a lot of waiting for the guys like that.
But I think when you look at this Kansas State
game that there's certainly I think, really two ways you
can look at it. But I think that you can
be disappointed. Obviously, the line play was subpar. That continues
to be a problem. But the run game that was
a problem, and there was definitely a big problem committing
(12:20):
to it in the Kansas State game, and we had
seen them commit to it earlier, so it was earlier
in the season, so it's interesting that it kind of
went away. But I think that the other way to
look at it is that, I mean the Buffs almost
could have won this game, and they were down your
best player on offense, your best player on defense in
Travis Hunter. Then lose Jimmy Horn, you lose a Maari
(12:43):
and Miller, they were short a lot of guys. The
fact that Shador Standers really almost willed this team to
a win, there's something to be said for that. And
I think that there's still a lot of wins that
these Buffs, this Buff team is going to get. I
think all of a sudden, right with this, your Big
twelve championship, all that stuff a little bit more out
of reach now. But when you take a step back
(13:03):
and you look at a team that had one win
two years ago, they had four wins last year, I
still think they're on track to win seven or eight,
which is pretty impressive when you look at again the
big picture of CU. I know people are unning ten
to eleven, they won college football playoffs, all of that stuff,
But I think if you look at it a little
bit realistically, they're still on track to do really well
(13:25):
this season, to win eight plus games, and I think
the season is going to be interesting how it shakes out. Arizona,
all of a sudden is a little more winnable than
I thought it was a few weeks ago, So I
think it's going to be interesting to see how they respond.
That's gonna be a big picture. They got to get
back to running the ball, and you know Shador has
to there are times where he takes all at five sacks,
so I think that's the one, you know, kind of
(13:46):
flaw in his game. Is football. IQ's fantastic, but you
got to work on that where you know, holding on
to it a little too.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Long at times.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So it'll be interesting to see how it evolves as
the season goes on. But I think that I've been
impressed with this team's kind of brilliancy and finding ways
to improve a little bit each week.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Romie, you're the best.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
We appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Know you've had a long weekend and then obviously your
show tonight, and I'm sure you're not done. We appreciate
you carving on a few minutes for us here on
Broncos Country Night, and we'll make sure everybody's following you
at romy Underscore being and I know you'll be in
New Orleans as well, so we will see you in
the big easy.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Thanks so much, Thank you guys, and becam counting on
you to show me the town in the New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Oh, I know where where to find some really good,
really good deals on some oysters. And maybe you'll get
a hurricane or a hand grenade, but then that might
affect your work on Thursday, so maybe we stay away
from those because I can mess with you, so it'll
still be fun regardless. Hopefully the Broncos will go there
and get a win.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Thanks romy all right, Thanks Gays.
