Jalil has it. Jilil to the gold line.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Did he get in? Yes? Touchdown Denver.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
When you see this role by bow Knicks, he was
looking in the end zone, the north end zone, Jaliel
in the flat on the right, and he's side on
that thing.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
I don't think he even looked at Jalil.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Mark Johnson is so great on the call.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I always love the the the enthusiasm Mark Johnson Briggs.
I always bring up that David and I'mondola story where
he he did a survey of like all the announcers
of various different sports and cities or whatever, and that
the softest spoken guy the the Sacramento King's announcer, you know,
and he's like and there he goes to the leaves
the bull in and then you got Mark Johnson, who's
(00:51):
gun bar, you know, and it's it's it's like a
nuclear blast in your ears. I love it every time
we get a chance to Mark, to talk to Mark's
just just absolutely great. We're all right out to the
Kway conspar of the Hotline, the own bring on a
good friend, romy Bean from CBS Rome.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
How you doing this evening?
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Oh? You know what, I was just agreeing with you
so much. Like there's just nothing better than a Mark
Johnson college like the Voice of God calling sports.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
I need a cooking show.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I need nature documentaries narrated by Mark Johnson. I'm just
saying I need to like the you know when the
Orca is going after the seal and Mark Johnson on
the call.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Right between the eyes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I pay money for that, so much money for that.
I love it.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Roby is a pretty good weekend for Colorado football.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Again. You look at the see You Buffs getting it done.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
You look at, obviously the Denver Broncos getting it done.
I'll be it against a team that you know, I
think everyone expected them to get it done. You know,
as we're as we're nearing the midway point in both
these seasons, what is our what is our outlook on
these football teams?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I mean, we are having a good time, guys, we
are having a good time. But I think when you
start with the Bus. I think the Bus has proven
that they they are a legitimately good football team.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
I think there's a lot of questions with the.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Way the season started, is it the same stuff from
last year? But there are legitimate playmakers on this team.
They've gotten so much better in the trenches and you know,
the committing to the run game, all the things that
you want to see. And I just think it's obviously
Travis Hunter too. It's just I mean, he's just he's ridiculous,
He's spectacular. But this team is really showing that they're
(02:25):
a lot more well rounded, I think than people expected
them to be. And it's exciting to see what they
could possibly do the rest of the stretch. Four games
to go boll eligible for the first time in quite
some time, and it gives me a lot of hope.
And then you go to the Broncos, and I think
this is a really exciting time for the Broncos, right because,
as you mentioned, it was Carolina. You were supposed to
(02:45):
dog walk Carolina. But the point is, you played the schedule,
you're dealt, and now we get to find out what
this team's really made of because you got three really
tough matches two, specifically on the road to Baltimore to
Kansas City. We're going to find out, now, what does
this look like? What did the Broncos look like against
teams that are really good winning teams, because I guess
you know, if you do look at it right, everybody's
(03:07):
been saying the five teams that they won. I've seen
hapn eleven and twenty twenty nine record the three teams.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
It lost to.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
You have is it thirteen to nine? And then the
next couple of.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Teams obviously have very positive records.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
So I think this is great. I think this is
going to be a really good litmus test and we're
going to find out what the Broncos are made of
in the next couple of weeks. But they're at a
really good point with this five and three start.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
Well, Robby, I'm going to back up for just a
little bit and hint on some things with the Broncos.
What do you think about the postgame comments from Broncos
head coach Sean Payton, one when he was talking about
his wide receivers and two talking about his defense.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Which is comment specifically, well.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
When he was talking about the wid receivers, the idea
of you know, guys dropping balls and just possibly making
some changes at wy receivers, but just kind of alluding
to that, but more importantly talking about this defense and
the fact that his defense actually gave up some points
in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
What do you think about those specifically?
Speaker 5 (04:08):
You know, I thought it was so interesting Nick that
if you listen to that.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Postgame pressor with no knowledge of what happened in the game,
you'd be like, this, did they lose? Right?
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Like?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
That was one of those winning postgame pressures where he
was clearly unhappy and you could have almost assumed that
they lost the game based on what he was talking about,
and he was clearly not happy. Maybe that was a
game he thought they should have won more soundly than
twenty eight to fourteen. You know, obviously the funbile, he
was upset about the touchdown at the end. You know,
(04:39):
I think that I don't know, I don't know if
this is his way of keeping his guys motivated, knowing
that there's really tough tests ahead of them. But it
was interesting that it seems pretty negative about the win. Again,
maybe I think he feels like they should have won
even more soundly than they did. But I do think
that it was an interesting It was interesting that he
(05:02):
even said, too, you know, that the players have to
have higher expectations than I do. And I don't know,
I don't know if that was pointed towards the players.
I don't think it was. But I also thought that
was a bit of an interesting comment. Almost you could
allude as he's saying they don't have a higher expectation.
Whether he meant that or not, but it was an interesting,
very interesting from that perspective.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
You know, it was fascinating to me.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Jacy Horn comes up to Sean Payton accuses him of
running the ball, excuse me, run the score up, and
I just I could not, for the life of me,
fathom that the Broncos only had twenty eight points.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
He finished twenty eight fourteen.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
The Panthers are calling time out on the Broncos final
offensive drive. You know, the twenty eight points would be
the fewest points the Panthers have allowed almost all season,
dating back to the Week two.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I don't to me, I didn't understand that. But you know,
I can understand Jacy's frustration. I can't.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Your team's losing a lot, you're giving up a lot.
I get that, but I didn't understand that. And I
also didn't understand going up to the coach insane Nick,
you know, and I discussed that a little bit earlier.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
He's got a little bit of a different opinion than me.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
But I you know, what did you think about jac
Horn going up there?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Did you think Sean Pagon was trying to run it up? I, first.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Of all, know, I didn't think he was trying to run.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
It up, because, like you said, they had twenty eight points.
I mean, you want to talk about running up a score.
Let's not forget the Dolphins put up seventy on the
Broncos last year and McDaniels was like, I'm not going
to do the field goal for the record, right, Like
that's running up a score. Twenty eight points is not
running up a score in high school. It's the NFL.
I think that in general. I think it's really hard
(06:35):
to be at Panthers right now. A Panthers player. We
were standing at the visitor tunnel waiting to go out
to do TV postgame, and those guys walking into the
locker room, ID me, it was this dead, sullen silence.
You can just tell they're so frustrated. That's a really,
really hard spot to be in, and so I do
think it was frustration boiling over for a lot of
(06:57):
those guys from how the season is going. But I
just I do think it's interesting too to come up
to a head coach as a player and say that
I know that his dad played for Seawn, but I
don't really think that has one thing to do with
it or another. I don't think it was running up
the score. I really don't. And I think with those
trick plays and stuff, I think there's a couple of
(07:17):
you for ways for you to look at it. Maybe
Sean's running those because he wants Baltimore, Kansas City now
to be on their toes a little bit more, and hey,
you got to prepare for this type of a thing.
I think it could have been that, But I did
not think it was running up the score at all,
And I did kind of think it was funny that
Jasey Horn got so upset about it.
Speaker 7 (07:35):
Listen, I said it last night. We're trying to finish
the game the right way. We're not trying to run
up the score or on anyone. It's the National Football Leagues.
I have any games with the twenty eight point lead
in the fourth quarter and loss. So we're trying to
finish the Burton throw from Sutton is trying to continue
a drive.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Played better.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Well, even with those comments right there, I mean, I'm
with coach and the concept of playing better because I
pointed out a couple of things to ben defensively that
the Carolina Panthers couldn't really do, and they would have
done better if they communicated. But from your standpoint, when
you look at the Broncos defense, and more specifically a
(08:15):
guy by the name of Nick Benito, how impressed have
you been with him thus far this season?
Speaker 4 (08:21):
I mean, this has been I've been incredibly impressed obviously,
right six straight games with the fact he tied him
now to von Miller. I mean, you're in the most
elite of companies. But I think with Nick there was
a lot of expectations. There's questions about the pass rush rushroom,
is this room good enough? Do they have enough firepower?
And I think the emergence of Nick people almost were
(08:43):
hoping that was going to come last year, and so
to see where he's come about, you know, he's become
so fast and shifty, and I'm very, very impressed with
his play and how he's playing. And you know, it's
so funny in this league because you can jump to
conclusions really quickly. And I feel like a lot lot
of Broncos fans kind of we're out on Nick Bonito
(09:03):
a little bit last year, like you expect them to
just get going so fast. So to see what he's
done and to know that he's so young in his career,
I think he's incredibly exciting the production he's creating.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
And I also think you've got to give a lot
of credit right to Zach Allen.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
When he's bringing so much pressure up the middle, it's
freeing up these guys on the edge a little bit
more too, and so that part is great to see.
Just the defense in general that the friends of Front
is just lethal. They can tell we're having a good time.
But also really impressed with Jonathan Cooper. He's been really
really aggressive as well. And another guy that you kind
of was hoping was going to elevate some a guy
(09:38):
that some people were doing was just a guy, and
he's certainly leveled up tremendously this year. So it really
is great to see that entire room.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Then we start to make a name for themselves well yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Speak of that entire room.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I mean, you've got what looks like an odd man out,
a trade deadline approaching here.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
We've heard the rumors about the team, you.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Know, potentially trying to shop Greg Dulcicch and Baron Browning.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Where do you come down on those two?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
You know what's so crazy about Baron is you would
have never thought that Baron Browning would be the odd
man out in that room. He's kind of always been
the leader is that room. Injury is tough. You know,
you get maybe a little bit Wally Pips, but when
you look at it with him, him and Cooper, I
believe are both coming up right on contract Cooper so
you can only keep one. Cooper might be a little.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Bit cheaper, honestly, But I do think.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
That Baron's a guy that could garner interests from other
teams in the league as well. Had a little bit
of injury history which has certainly hampered him. But it's
just it is a little bit crazy because I never
thought Baron would be the odd man out, and I
think he's a great, great leader in that room. But
if you could get some value for him, I think
that'd be great. When it comes to Gregdulsich, I don't
(10:46):
know what value you get for him. I think they
do need to get to part rais with him because
this has been a healthy scratch yet again and yet
another game on Sunday, and it's unfortunate another guy that
had so much potential but has certainly not live up
to it up to it also had some injury, a
lot of injury history actually, But yeah, I think Dulpha's
just kind of been a real big disappointment. But you
(11:08):
were at the point where just get trying get something
for him again.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
I'm not quite sure how much you could get for him,
but I.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Would certainly shop him because you got some other tight
ends that.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
As we saw yesterday tight at National tight.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
End Day, we're stepping up and Dultage unfortunately has really
done nothing for this team in quite a few years.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Well to see you Buffs have definitely done something for Denver, Colorado,
but more importantly Boulder. But from your standpoint with the
team now being six and two only with four games remaining,
and the team right now is ranked twenty third, what
does that mean for the team you think now, not
just being the fact that you have six wins, but
(11:49):
you're finally ranked in the top twenty five.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
Yeah, I think it's great. I think it's now you
see how they handle that next level of success because
this is a team that last year to this year.
You can see the mentality, the focus is very different,
and they liked being sucked on this year that nobody
was talking or not nobod you're talking about them.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
They weren't talk.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
About them as much. They weren't getting ranked. You know,
there was a few weeks where they thought maybe they
should get ranked, and I think they really embraced that,
like all right, you know, last year is so different
from this year and people are sleeping on us. So
now we see how they handle that layer of success
where you are.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
Ranked and where you have a lot on the line,
because now you've achieved something in a bowl.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Game, which was certainly at least one benchmark, that was
a really big deal for this team. Now you got
four games left. How do you handle that success?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
How do you're you're a little bit of.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
An outside shot at the big twelve, you know, championship,
but if you went out, if you get a little
help from teams. You got to get help from other teams.
But can you do your job and do what you're supposed.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
To do and see if things fallow your way.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think it's going to be really interesting to see.
I think that the be fine. This team has a
really different mentality than they did last year, and they're
really focused and squared in, squared away, squared in whatever
on winning. So I don't think.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Getting ranked twenty third is gonna kind.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Of mess with any of that by any means, but
it is going to be a great test to see
how they handle that moving forward.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Talky Roby Bean from CBS, Yeah, we'll be It's nice
to end up talking about Colorado for something other than
off the field. You know, they're talking about on the field,
the wins and all that.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Kind of stuff. Broncos have a tough three game stretch
coming up.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
You've got two road games Baltimore, Kansas City, got a
home game against the Falcons. Teams sitting right now at
you know, at five wins. Where are they going to
be after those three games?
Speaker 4 (13:38):
This is going to be great, great test, Like we said,
from them, I think they can match up pretty fairly
well against Atlanta. I know that's the third one we're
talking about, but these top two I think it's just again,
it's going to be really interesting. Obviously with the Broncos
defense has been fantastic. Now you get Lamar and Dereck Henry.
I mean, that feels like the ultimate to see how
(14:01):
they handle that. I think it's gonna be a really
challenging environment. Kansas City is a team that this is
so hard because you know, the Mahomes thus is the
worst start of his career.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
YadA YadA, yady.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Cool, they're seven it out, but they really haven't been
scoring a ton of points. So I think that that
one is going to be really interesting in terms of
a battle of defense of Kansas City's defense has been
really solid. But I think if the Broncos can steal
one of those two on the road, they have done
really well on the road, I think that would it
would be tremendous, tremendous for them. There there's an absolute
(14:32):
possibility they lose those next two. But even if you do,
you set yourself up now you've done your job to
this point that say you drop both on the road,
and then you're five hundred and you could still really
squarely be in the thick of things. The best case scenario,
you went two or three. Worst case, I think they
I think they at least beat Atlanta one. Well, you
(14:54):
know one and two in that'suilt there.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
That sounds fair.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
But it's going to be very interesting to see what
the next three games slight look like for the Denver Broncos.
But the one thing that could help him out is
Courtland Sutton. A week ago, Courtland Sun had no yards,
no receptions, but one hundred yards on Sunday. Do you
expect for this trend to continue with Carl the sudden
being more involved with the offense.
Speaker 5 (15:24):
I mean, I certainly hope so.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
It was. And you know what wasn't just that Saints game.
Several games leading up to that, it was we didn't
see court get involved till the second quarter, the third quarter.
I think a lot of people are clamoring to just
get him involved early, and so it was so great
to see him get involved, be involved early in the
game plan from the jump. And so I do certainly
(15:47):
hope that continues.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
For your wide.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Receiver one should be making plays like that, should be
that involved in the game plan. And when I look
at this Carolina game, and I know, you know it,
Carolina's defense wasn't good. A law but I.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Think that this was great for the confidence.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
That this team could have in the passing game.
Speaker 5 (16:05):
I talked to Adam Feltman in the locker room last night,
and he said that.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
He feels like this team is still figuring out their
offensive identity, but a game like this where they're able
to sling it around makes them kind of settle in
a little bit more into wanting feeling confident about making
those big plays and having a lot of big plays.
And he even said he didn't expect them maybe to
be flinging around that much as much as we saw
in the Panthers game, but it was something that he
(16:30):
really liked to see and that obviously they all fed
off of. So I hope that we continue to see
they can build off what they did, especially in the
past game, specifically in that Panthers game.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
Again, we're going to be seeing much tougher defenses, But
can you elevate.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
And can you lean on a guy like Courtland especially
early in games. I feel like it's really important early
in games to get Courtland involved and kind of get
the momentum going well.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Romy we always appreciate the time and yeah, Brock is
going to need to throw the ball against the Baltimore Ravens.
Their secondary not very good, you know, and they're gonna
need to be able to do that to whin. We
always appreciate the time, though, Has that all right? Take
care romy Bean, CBS right between the I
Bow Knicks roster's right throws it in the flat side arm.
Jalil has it. Jilil to the gold line.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Did he get in? Yes? Touchdown Denver.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
When you see this role by bow Knicks, he was
looking in the end zone, the north end zone, Jaliel
in the flat on the right, and he's side on
that thing.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
I don't think he even looked at Jalil.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Shot gunstap taken by Shador Coax's arm rifles down white silence.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Man wide open at the four. Travis. The gram spins.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Late to the inside, touchdown, touchdown, Colorado.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Mark Johnson is so great on the call.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
I always love the the the enthusiasm Mark Johnson Briggs.
I always bring up that David and I'mondola story where
he he did a survey of like all the announcers
of various different sports and cities or whatever, and that
the softest spoken guy the the Sacramento King's announcer, you know,
and he's like and there he goes to the leaves
the bull in and then you got Mark Johnson, who's
(00:51):
gun bar, you know, and it's it's it's like a
nuclear blast in your ears. I love it every time
we get a chance to Mark, to talk to Mark's
just just absolutely great. We're all right out to the
Kway conspar of the Hotline, the own bring on a
good friend, romy Bean from CBS Rome.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
How you doing this evening?
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Oh? You know what, I was just agreeing with you
so much. Like there's just nothing better than a Mark
Johnson college like the Voice of God calling sports.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
I need a cooking show.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
I need nature documentaries narrated by Mark Johnson. I'm just
saying I need to like the you know when the
Orca is going after the seal and Mark Johnson on
the call.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Right between the eyes.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
I pay money for that, so much money for that.
I love it.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Roby is a pretty good weekend for Colorado football.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Again. You look at the see You Buffs getting it done.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
You look at, obviously the Denver Broncos getting it done.
I'll be it against a team that you know, I
think everyone expected them to get it done. You know,
as we're as we're nearing the midway point in both
these seasons, what is our what is our outlook on
these football teams?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I mean, we are having a good time, guys, we
are having a good time. But I think when you
start with the Bus. I think the Bus has proven
that they they are a legitimately good football team.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
I think there's a lot of questions with the.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Way the season started, is it the same stuff from
last year? But there are legitimate playmakers on this team.
They've gotten so much better in the trenches and you know,
the committing to the run game, all the things that
you want to see. And I just think it's obviously
Travis Hunter too. It's just I mean, he's just he's ridiculous,
He's spectacular. But this team is really showing that they're
(02:25):
a lot more well rounded, I think than people expected
them to be. And it's exciting to see what they
could possibly do the rest of the stretch. Four games
to go boll eligible for the first time in quite
some time, and it gives me a lot of hope.
And then you go to the Broncos, and I think
this is a really exciting time for the Broncos, right because,
as you mentioned, it was Carolina. You were supposed to
(02:45):
dog walk Carolina. But the point is, you played the schedule,
you're dealt, and now we get to find out what
this team's really made of because you got three really
tough matches two, specifically on the road to Baltimore to
Kansas City. We're going to find out, now, what does
this look like? What did the Broncos look like against
teams that are really good winning teams, because I guess
you know, if you do look at it right, everybody's
(03:07):
been saying the five teams that they won. I've seen
hapn eleven and twenty twenty nine record the three teams.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
It lost to.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
You have is it thirteen to nine? And then the
next couple of.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Teams obviously have very positive records.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
So I think this is great. I think this is
going to be a really good litmus test and we're
going to find out what the Broncos are made of
in the next couple of weeks. But they're at a
really good point with this five and three start.
Speaker 6 (03:28):
Well, Robby, I'm going to back up for just a
little bit and hint on some things with the Broncos.
What do you think about the postgame comments from Broncos
head coach Sean Payton, one when he was talking about
his wide receivers and two talking about his defense.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Which is comment specifically, well.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
When he was talking about the wid receivers, the idea
of you know, guys dropping balls and just possibly making
some changes at wy receivers, but just kind of alluding
to that, but more importantly talking about this defense and
the fact that his defense actually gave up some points
in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
What do you think about those specifically?
Speaker 5 (04:08):
You know, I thought it was so interesting Nick that
if you listen to that.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Postgame pressor with no knowledge of what happened in the game,
you'd be like, this, did they lose? Right?
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Like?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
That was one of those winning postgame pressures where he
was clearly unhappy and you could have almost assumed that
they lost the game based on what he was talking about,
and he was clearly not happy. Maybe that was a
game he thought they should have won more soundly than
twenty eight to fourteen. You know, obviously the funbile, he
was upset about the touchdown at the end. You know,
(04:39):
I think that I don't know, I don't know if
this is his way of keeping his guys motivated, knowing
that there's really tough tests ahead of them. But it
was interesting that it seems pretty negative about the win. Again,
maybe I think he feels like they should have won
even more soundly than they did. But I do think
that it was an interesting It was interesting that he
(05:02):
even said, too, you know, that the players have to
have higher expectations than I do. And I don't know,
I don't know if that was pointed towards the players.
I don't think it was. But I also thought that
was a bit of an interesting comment. Almost you could
allude as he's saying they don't have a higher expectation.
Whether he meant that or not, but it was an interesting,
very interesting from that perspective.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
You know, it was fascinating to me.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Jacy Horn comes up to Sean Payton accuses him of
running the ball, excuse me, run the score up, and
I just I could not, for the life of me,
fathom that the Broncos only had twenty eight points.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
He finished twenty eight fourteen.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
The Panthers are calling time out on the Broncos final
offensive drive. You know, the twenty eight points would be
the fewest points the Panthers have allowed almost all season,
dating back to the Week two.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I don't to me, I didn't understand that. But you know,
I can understand Jacy's frustration. I can't.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Your team's losing a lot, you're giving up a lot.
I get that, but I didn't understand that. And I
also didn't understand going up to the coach insane Nick,
you know, and I discussed that a little bit earlier.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
He's got a little bit of a different opinion than me.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
But I you know, what did you think about jac
Horn going up there?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Did you think Sean Pagon was trying to run it up? I, first.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Of all, know, I didn't think he was trying to run.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
It up, because, like you said, they had twenty eight points.
I mean, you want to talk about running up a score.
Let's not forget the Dolphins put up seventy on the
Broncos last year and McDaniels was like, I'm not going
to do the field goal for the record, right, Like
that's running up a score. Twenty eight points is not
running up a score in high school. It's the NFL.
I think that in general. I think it's really hard
(06:35):
to be at Panthers right now. A Panthers player. We
were standing at the visitor tunnel waiting to go out
to do TV postgame, and those guys walking into the
locker room, ID me, it was this dead, sullen silence.
You can just tell they're so frustrated. That's a really,
really hard spot to be in, and so I do
think it was frustration boiling over for a lot of
(06:57):
those guys from how the season is going. But I
just I do think it's interesting too to come up
to a head coach as a player and say that
I know that his dad played for Seawn, but I
don't really think that has one thing to do with
it or another. I don't think it was running up
the score. I really don't. And I think with those
trick plays and stuff, I think there's a couple of
(07:17):
you for ways for you to look at it. Maybe
Sean's running those because he wants Baltimore, Kansas City now
to be on their toes a little bit more, and hey,
you got to prepare for this type of a thing.
I think it could have been that, But I did
not think it was running up the score at all,
And I did kind of think it was funny that
Jasey Horn got so upset about it.
Speaker 7 (07:35):
Listen, I said it last night. We're trying to finish
the game the right way. We're not trying to run
up the score or on anyone. It's the National Football Leagues.
I have any games with the twenty eight point lead
in the fourth quarter and loss. So we're trying to
finish the Burton throw from Sutton is trying to continue
a drive.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Played better.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Well, even with those comments right there, I mean, I'm
with coach and the concept of playing better because I
pointed out a couple of things to ben defensively that
the Carolina Panthers couldn't really do, and they would have
done better if they communicated. But from your standpoint, when
you look at the Broncos defense, and more specifically a
(08:15):
guy by the name of Nick Benito, how impressed have
you been with him thus far this season?
Speaker 4 (08:21):
I mean, this has been I've been incredibly impressed obviously,
right six straight games with the fact he tied him
now to von Miller. I mean, you're in the most
elite of companies. But I think with Nick there was
a lot of expectations. There's questions about the pass rush rushroom,
is this room good enough? Do they have enough firepower?
And I think the emergence of Nick people almost were
(08:43):
hoping that was going to come last year, and so
to see where he's come about, you know, he's become
so fast and shifty, and I'm very, very impressed with
his play and how he's playing. And you know, it's
so funny in this league because you can jump to
conclusions really quickly. And I feel like a lot lot
of Broncos fans kind of we're out on Nick Bonito
(09:03):
a little bit last year, like you expect them to
just get going so fast. So to see what he's
done and to know that he's so young in his career,
I think he's incredibly exciting the production he's creating.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
And I also think you've got to give a lot
of credit right to Zach Allen.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
When he's bringing so much pressure up the middle, it's
freeing up these guys on the edge a little bit
more too, and so that part is great to see.
Just the defense in general that the friends of Front
is just lethal. They can tell we're having a good time.
But also really impressed with Jonathan Cooper. He's been really
really aggressive as well. And another guy that you kind
of was hoping was going to elevate some a guy
(09:38):
that some people were doing was just a guy, and
he's certainly leveled up tremendously this year. So it really
is great to see that entire room.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Then we start to make a name for themselves well yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Speak of that entire room.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
I mean, you've got what looks like an odd man out,
a trade deadline approaching here.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
We've heard the rumors about the team, you.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Know, potentially trying to shop Greg Dulcicch and Baron Browning.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Where do you come down on those two?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
You know what's so crazy about Baron is you would
have never thought that Baron Browning would be the odd
man out in that room. He's kind of always been
the leader is that room. Injury is tough. You know,
you get maybe a little bit Wally Pips, but when
you look at it with him, him and Cooper, I
believe are both coming up right on contract Cooper so
you can only keep one. Cooper might be a little.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
Bit cheaper, honestly, But I do think.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
That Baron's a guy that could garner interests from other
teams in the league as well. Had a little bit
of injury history which has certainly hampered him. But it's
just it is a little bit crazy because I never
thought Baron would be the odd man out, and I
think he's a great, great leader in that room. But
if you could get some value for him, I think
that'd be great. When it comes to Gregdulsich, I don't
(10:46):
know what value you get for him. I think they
do need to get to part rais with him because
this has been a healthy scratch yet again and yet
another game on Sunday, and it's unfortunate another guy that
had so much potential but has certainly not live up
to it up to it also had some injury, a
lot of injury history actually, But yeah, I think Dulpha's
just kind of been a real big disappointment. But you
(11:08):
were at the point where just get trying get something
for him again.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
I'm not quite sure how much you could get for him,
but I.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Would certainly shop him because you got some other tight
ends that.
Speaker 5 (11:17):
As we saw yesterday tight at National tight.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
End Day, we're stepping up and Dultage unfortunately has really
done nothing for this team in quite a few years.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Well to see you Buffs have definitely done something for Denver, Colorado,
but more importantly Boulder. But from your standpoint with the
team now being six and two only with four games remaining,
and the team right now is ranked twenty third, what
does that mean for the team you think now, not
just being the fact that you have six wins, but
(11:49):
you're finally ranked in the top twenty five.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
Yeah, I think it's great. I think it's now you
see how they handle that next level of success because
this is a team that last year to this year.
You can see the mentality, the focus is very different,
and they liked being sucked on this year that nobody
was talking or not nobod you're talking about them.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
They weren't talk.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
About them as much. They weren't getting ranked. You know,
there was a few weeks where they thought maybe they
should get ranked, and I think they really embraced that,
like all right, you know, last year is so different
from this year and people are sleeping on us. So
now we see how they handle that layer of success
where you are.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
Ranked and where you have a lot on the line,
because now you've achieved something in a bowl.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Game, which was certainly at least one benchmark, that was
a really big deal for this team. Now you got
four games left. How do you handle that success?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
How do you're you're a little bit of.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
An outside shot at the big twelve, you know, championship,
but if you went out, if you get a little
help from teams. You got to get help from other teams.
But can you do your job and do what you're supposed.
Speaker 5 (12:53):
To do and see if things fallow your way.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think it's going to be really interesting to see.
I think that the be fine. This team has a
really different mentality than they did last year, and they're
really focused and squared in, squared away, squared in whatever
on winning. So I don't think.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Getting ranked twenty third is gonna kind.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Of mess with any of that by any means, but
it is going to be a great test to see
how they handle that moving forward.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Talky Roby Bean from CBS, Yeah, we'll be It's nice
to end up talking about Colorado for something other than
off the field. You know, they're talking about on the field,
the wins and all that.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Kind of stuff. Broncos have a tough three game stretch
coming up.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
You've got two road games Baltimore, Kansas City, got a
home game against the Falcons. Teams sitting right now at
you know, at five wins. Where are they going to
be after those three games?
Speaker 4 (13:38):
This is going to be great, great test, Like we said,
from them, I think they can match up pretty fairly
well against Atlanta. I know that's the third one we're
talking about, but these top two I think it's just again,
it's going to be really interesting. Obviously with the Broncos
defense has been fantastic. Now you get Lamar and Dereck Henry.
I mean, that feels like the ultimate to see how
(14:01):
they handle that. I think it's gonna be a really
challenging environment. Kansas City is a team that this is
so hard because you know, the Mahomes thus is the
worst start of his career.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
YadA YadA, yady.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Cool, they're seven it out, but they really haven't been
scoring a ton of points. So I think that that
one is going to be really interesting in terms of
a battle of defense of Kansas City's defense has been
really solid. But I think if the Broncos can steal
one of those two on the road, they have done
really well on the road, I think that would it
would be tremendous, tremendous for them. There there's an absolute
(14:32):
possibility they lose those next two. But even if you do,
you set yourself up now you've done your job to
this point that say you drop both on the road,
and then you're five hundred and you could still really
squarely be in the thick of things. The best case scenario,
you went two or three. Worst case, I think they
I think they at least beat Atlanta one. Well, you
(14:54):
know one and two in that'suilt there.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
That sounds fair.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
But it's going to be very interesting to see what
the next three games slight look like for the Denver Broncos.
But the one thing that could help him out is
Courtland Sutton. A week ago, Courtland Sun had no yards,
no receptions, but one hundred yards on Sunday. Do you
expect for this trend to continue with Carl the sudden
being more involved with the offense.
Speaker 5 (15:24):
I mean, I certainly hope so.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
It was. And you know what wasn't just that Saints game.
Several games leading up to that, it was we didn't
see court get involved till the second quarter, the third quarter.
I think a lot of people are clamoring to just
get him involved early, and so it was so great
to see him get involved, be involved early in the
game plan from the jump. And so I do certainly
(15:47):
hope that continues.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
For your wide.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Receiver one should be making plays like that, should be
that involved in the game plan. And when I look
at this Carolina game, and I know, you know it,
Carolina's defense wasn't good. A law but I.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Think that this was great for the confidence.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
That this team could have in the passing game.
Speaker 5 (16:05):
I talked to Adam Feltman in the locker room last night,
and he said that.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
He feels like this team is still figuring out their
offensive identity, but a game like this where they're able
to sling it around makes them kind of settle in
a little bit more into wanting feeling confident about making
those big plays and having a lot of big plays.
And he even said he didn't expect them maybe to
be flinging around that much as much as we saw
in the Panthers game, but it was something that he
(16:30):
really liked to see and that obviously they all fed
off of. So I hope that we continue to see
they can build off what they did, especially in the
past game, specifically in that Panthers game.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
Again, we're going to be seeing much tougher defenses, But
can you elevate.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
And can you lean on a guy like Courtland especially
early in games. I feel like it's really important early
in games to get Courtland involved and kind of get
the momentum going well.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Romy we always appreciate the time and yeah, Brock is
going to need to throw the ball against the Baltimore Ravens.
Their secondary not very good, you know, and they're gonna
need to be able to do that to whin. We
always appreciate the time, though, Has that all right? Take
care romy Bean, CBS right between the I
