The O-line and D-line have been weak spots on this team but it was the special teams that hurt us bad giving up touchdowns on punt/kick returns to Eddie Royal.
The first player in Bronco’s history to do this.
Congratulations Chargers.
Again our offense stalled in the red zone several times including their 1st drive. Norv decided Sproles running the ball up the middle on 3rd and goal at the 2 yard line was a good idea. Again it didn’t work for the umpteenth time and we had to settle for a field goal.
The defense did a pretty good job handling the run. Unfortunately, they were only able to bank one sack. Meanwhile, our O-line gave up 5 sacks. If Rivers makes it thru this year healthy, it’ll be a minor miracle.
When will the Bolts play 4 entire quarters? We scored 20 points in the 1st half and 3 points in the 2nd half. That is not gonna get it done especially after gifting two TD’s on kick/punt returns.
Now we’re in a hole 3.5 games back of the 6-0 Broncos after only 6 weeks into the regular season. This was a must win for the Chargers and they didn’t come through.
KC and Oakland played with a lot of heart this week beating the ‘Skins and Eagles respectively. Where is the Chargers heart?
We play KC and Oakland the next two weeks. I guess we’ll find out. Sadly, i think we already know.
