I also liked that little QB draw to get that 1st down late in the fourth quarter. Travis Henry had a monster day, but that isn't surprising. I've been saying it for a while; Travis Henry has the talent to break 2,000 yards this season. With Denvers running scheme + Henry's talent, I would not be surprised to see him get close to 2,000 yards rushing. Overall, decent game by Denver. I'd like to see Cutler cut down on the stupid mistakes(shovel passes, backward throw nowhere near young, etc..). If he takes it slow like he started to do in the second half, we could have a great season.

I have to give Cutler a break though, it is his 2nd year, he is young and mistakes are going to happen. Its week 1, and Im not saying he is amazing, but I want to see how he progresses this season. I can handle these stupid mistakes now, but if he is still making these later this season I am going to be worried. I hate the opening game, its seems like Denver struggles in their opener each year.

Shanahan is 11-4 in opening games, 9-4 with Denver.

We may struggle, but we win.

I know we do, but I have had enough scary moments in the last two days

Hawaii - Have them in suiside pool
Texas A&M- WOW 3 OT's scared me to death thought we blew it
Denver- Have to run on the field for a game winning FG

Enough possible heart attacks for me this weekend.

What did everyone think of the defense? They looked a lot better than in preseason. BTW, Ill be at the game this weekend.

Release Simeon Rice today. I wish we picked him up back when he was in his prime.

This season has been a complete bust. The only reason I am holding out hope is because the Chargers are absolute crap.

We lose to the Chiefs, we might as well call it a season.

We win and then the Chargers beat the Colts, go figure.

Yeah. The AFC West is so unpredictable. The Division is up for grabs between the Broncos and the Chargers. The winner of the Division could rely upon the outcome of the Chargers/Broncos game later this season.
