Broncos V Chargers

the roughing against Herbert when he didn't go to the ground, then allowing that play in the 4th quarter where he was wrapped up, but flipped the ball to Ekeler was a pretty terrible inconsistency.
Most NFL reffing I've seen as of late has been god awful. Watching the NFL after a weekend of college football really just isn't fun anymore. in college, you're essentially watching a chess match between the coaches play out, whereas NFL is mainly a "who has the better QB" league. Playoff NFL is a lot of fun, but regular season is so damn boring.

I know most people want to put Herbert at the Josh Allen/Patrick Mahomes level, but I don’t see it. I guess I‘ve watched too much of him since his days at Oregon. I hear a lot of talking heads talk about how the Chargers are just a step away from being elite. Somehow they always fail to get there. There are some who are finally questioning whether Staley is the man to do it. What’s with Keenan Allen? and Joey Bosa? They are always hurt. That salary hike the Broncos gave Wilson worse and worse every game.

Both teams were not very impressive on offense..
Of course after watching the Chiefs and Bills play your spoiled with how good their offense’s really are.

it's amazing how stagnant many of these NFL offenses look when there is equal athletic talent on the other side of the ball to stay out of terrible mismatches - huge difference when compared to the college game
even the chiefs and bills looked a little limited
while Tenn-Alabama were shootouts where you would presume the defensive talent is top shelf

Give some credit to the defenses and the scheme. The donkeys blitzed often and well. Didn’t really give him much time. Wilson’s O line is not great though either
The body language of the Broncos in the 4th Q was pretty telling. Hackett's 1 and done...not sure who the new ownership turns to next, but a Sean Payton/Russell Wilson marriage wouldn't be the worst idea...not sure how long the Saints have him under contract for though
Michael Severe raced about Jaimes’s feet and mobility coming out of high school. We need more guys who can move like Jaimes.
I think there’s a huge locker room problem with Wilson. He missed some open receivers last night too
Denver is phucked. This year is a total loss, Wilson not nearly worth what they paid for him and will continue to pay...and I don't mean money, but very high draft picks, for several seasons. Their only hope is Wilson comes back next year with his hair on fire, and healthy, and in better shape. But that's next year....cause the Chiefs and Charges ain't going anywhere and the Raiders could still beat em next time to.
probably obvious to others but can someone explain why defenses seemingly are able to bottle up the offenses in the NFL relative to the college game?
I get when there are huge disparities in talent in the college game - but it seems that when equally talented college teams square off they turn into shootouts
why at the top end of both games do the offenses seem so much more effective in college vs NFL
maybe it's just overall talent and depth on NFL defenses - where in college you can ride a couple playmakers on offense against some weak spots on the defense

meanwhile, Pete Carroll just sitting there cackling, realizing he could very well make another run in the next 2-3 years with the draft capitol they've accumulated...they shored up OL, brought in a dynamic RB, have pretty good WRs...Denver set themselves back a decade with this move if something doesn't drastically change
I don't think Payton comes back this year and I don't think he wants anything to do with a washed Russ.
Well Urban, so should we add Hackett to the Husker list(sarcasm for anyone not catching it)? I'm actually okay with the Hackett hire, and maybe he learns how to manage a game. His play calling isn't that attrocious, Wilson's execution is. The trade and contract for Wilson was moronic. Gave up a pretty good tight end in the process too. Patton is the one that I have huge doubts about.
I'm not making excuses for Wilson, who's been nothing short of terrible. But unless the new owners want to eat 1/4 billion dollars right out of the gate, Wilson's not going anywhere right now. I guess it's not really Hackett's play selection that is dreadful - it's more about the team looking like a completely disorganized mess that can't get out of its own way. And while some of those problems could have been ironed out in the preseason, Hackett assured everyone it wasn't necessary.
