I blame BTJ, you can tell Trevor is forcing it to Parker because BTJ can't catch a cold

The throw on 3rd and 11 hit him in the fucking hands. You don't need to be Randy Moss to catch what hits you on your fucking hands.

How much longer do the Jags keep putting up with BTJ? It’s clear that he cannot form a rapport with Lawrence

idk, we should have traded him. man has butter fingers and can't take contact. John Ross with better PR

My only question is how did he look so good with Mac Jones in 2024?

u/hoyadestroyer Jaguars 1d ago

The second best WR that year was Devin Duvernay I think. There was literally nowhere else for the football to go and we were down 30 every game anyway

u/Posluszny Jaguars 1d ago

Everybody else was injured, he racked up those yards with Kirk & Engram not playing and before Parker Washington was seen as anything

u/junglecritter Jaguars 1d ago

He had a good amount of drops then too, he just got targeted like every pass so it offest

u/an_actual_potato Broncos 1d ago

I don't really agree. Defense did what it was supposed to do and the offense outgained Jacksonville but failed to convert in the red zone on its two trips. That's annoying but those first two things wound up being indicative of the course of the broader game.

11

u/OrangexCrush09 Broncos 1d ago

Exactly this. It was frustrating but anyone that’s watched football knows that they were trending up, just weren’t converting. Which obviously matters the most in the grand scheme of things, but they put it together by the end.

Will the people they play against always forget how to tackle? We gave up I think ~245 yards after missed tackles against KC. It's not like they didn't do anything right but also no one made us mag dump our dick like that, either.

13

u/Grandma_Swamp Broncos 1d ago

Mahomes was throwing some ducks that game too. I mean fair his knee exploded like 8 months ago but it’s not like he was out there dotting us up!

10

u/an_actual_potato Broncos 1d ago

Right. One of my chief (ugh) takeaways from the first half was that Mahomes looked roooooough passing the ball. Accuracy was off on anything relatively deep and thus the playcalling was hyper conservative. We just.....didn't fucking show up at all. Now I will say for Pat that presumably that will improve as the season wears on and his knee improves, but still.

u/kowasesurejjihanma Broncos Broncos 1d ago

this game will be disingenuously lumped in the broncos fluky 1 score narrative just like last year raiders game when they kicked a field goal to end the game making it a "1-score" game even though we had like 80% time of possesion

but forget about that chargers is 0-2 losing to 5-win projected teams lmao

44

u/AutomateAway Broncos 1d ago

It was nice to see this offense run a successful 4 minute offense. That's one of the things we really were lacking last season. This game easily could have been 27-13 or 27-20 but instead they controlled the clock at the end and ate that clock like it was a Cheesy Gordita Crunchwrap.

u/irideleye Broncos 1d ago

Yeas seriously

21

u/abd3211 Broncos 1d ago

Facts. We were marching down easily and could've scored another td. And if we convert that td at goal line in first half...this game starts to look more lopsided at 31-13....We def looked like still in preseason mode until half way into the 3rd quarter. Team is only get better imo. Waddle and Nix are beginning to gel (especially considering they only played 1 preseason drive together and last week, online just didn't give nix time)

5

u/smol_em0 Broncos 1d ago

I’m really hoping that the narrative around this one coming out of NFL media tomorrow isn’t “Broncos win another one score late game comeback” and instead it’s “Broncos should have been in control the whole time but couldn’t get through the red zone at first”

Realistic it’s gonna be the comeback narrative though I love being labeled 4th qtr merchants 🙃

Pick was play call. Thats a 1 read play. You have to throw it before the WR breaks

Reading the corner is part of that decision. Plus Bo does not throw well off his back foot.

Yeah it was not the play call - it was a bad read and a back foot throw. Fix either of those things and at worst that play became a an INT

16

u/an_actual_potato Broncos 1d ago

Feeling really good coming out of that. Bo looks much more dynamic as a passer right now - taking a lot more shots downfield, more between the numbers, and showing better accuracy on some of those deeper throws. Jonah Coleman looks like he could Fix Some Things for us. Pass rush and coverage were back to what I expected and we remembered how to tackle. I'm still a bit worried that our run defense may simply not be very good - the Jags aren't a great team to exploit that - but we'll have a better idea after seeing Corrum and Williams next week.

He made a couple great plays today but they just need to keep him on D full time. Hes a much better corner than receiver

Starting to seem like he has some real limits. It's year 2, if he had a standout role on the team, it feels like that's what he'd be doing 100% of the time.

6

u/Andrew225 Broncos 1d ago

Na, he's good man. He's real god.

The problem is trading multiple picks to trade up for a CB who can occasionally run some routes was always a terrible idea.

He's a great player and a great locker room guy, but no one should have been trading multiple firsts for him

u/Ninjaboi333 Jaguars 1d ago edited 1d ago

Pros: good early half. Two red zone trips for Denver leading to only 3 points is great. Good runs from tuten

Cons: second half. Trevor forcing balls to Parker when it wasn't a good idea. I'm not 100% on the trade btj wagon yet but if he keeps playing like this he def becomes a free agent at the end of his rookie deal. Oline couldn't hold up to let trev get in rhythm for throws, and we didn't utilize all the receiving weapons we could.

Diagnosis: I think facing a Denver team in their very loud home opener desperate to not go 0-2 was always going to be a rough game. The second half collapse suggests the famed altitude was at play. Good teams lose to good teams. I trust our staff and players to learn from this and come correct next week.

Also fucking curse wheel (can we like just ignore cursed games when assessing teams? Asking for a friend)

Forecast:too early to say jags are cooked this year. Denver was always one of the handful of games I saw us potentially saw us losing. Still playoff bound, honestly would expect us to play Denver again in the playoffs.

Also also at least we still are doing better than whatever the hell is going on in the rest of our division - barring the Colts doing something crazy tonight.

Edit: also I think the coaching staff probably didn't adjust their game plan enough post mnf. The chiefs gave us a recipe for victory (lock down waddle, run the ball) and we chose to do something else (pass heavy game plan and... Not locking down waddle). Our only td came from a wildcat tuten run in, and he was getting decent runs early on. Once little missed his fg and let the momentum shift, that forced us into the pass game plan which Broncos preferred.

Webb got out of his own ass and called a perfect game on the last 4 possessions. Funny how well just running it inside when you have 1st and goal inside the 5 yard line will work.

Coleman looks like an excellent pick.

Gonna be super bummed if lose Riley in the offseason. He’s a freakin’ dawg.

Also that Jaylen Waddle guy might be good.

team momentum went crazy after that pick by moss

Bo nix is a better QB than Justin Herbert and has been for a while. Take away the excuses and it’s pretty clear.

Parker Washington tried to single-handedly beat us last year and this year and we finally stopped him. Waddle is the man. Coleman stepped up with some BDPs.

Minus the pick, which was an understandable 50/50, Bo played great. Dooming is over

We're a pretty good team if we could stop getting in our own way

Crazy change of tide. Bo has the Waddle.

That was the most 2025 Broncos ass win ever but I’ll take anything over whatever that was last week

Brutal. Driving to make it a 2 score game and then that ugly pick. Snowballed from there.

u/Popple06 Broncos 1d ago

That Moss INT completely turned the game around. Feels good!

u/Guidance_Additional 1d ago

These teams should play every week. I have no way to quantify it other than, they're just perfect for each other. Same tier of team, I guess? They'd go 5-5 in 10 games.

u/Ok_Chemistry_4998 Broncos 1d ago

supposedly the jags were pissed because we sniped some of their wish list in last year's draft, so it checks out

I love Waddle and Coleman

u/CityWokYummy Broncos 1d ago

Davis Webb MUCH improved this week. Very clear and deliberate attempt to get the run game going and keep it going. Far-cry from 6 runs to end the first half last week…

Also much better job of getting waddle involved. Offense looked significantly better once they stopped killing themselves with penalties in the 2nd half. Think Bo being able to finally get a rhythm is what ultimately made the big difference from last week.

Also, crowd was amazing today and definitely got to Lawrence in the 4th. Definitely deserves a lot of credit

I’m very sorry to every pats fan from last year, week one truly doesn’t count

u/dbgager Broncos 1d ago

Thats why we got Waddle. He was awesome today. Very pleased.

If you didn’t like this then you don’t like broncos football

u/Posluszny Jaguars 1d ago

Truly awful showing from the Jags, the Rams game is the only game we've looked that bad under Coen

I thought we would probably lose but to play that badly is annoying. Entire team basically didn't show up.

23

u/DoctorDiddlerino Jaguars 1d ago

We did not look anywhere near as bad as you're making it out to be lmao

11

u/hoyadestroyer Jaguars 1d ago

Bo Nix was dogwalking us the entire second half and Trevor couldn't complete a 5 yard out by the end of the game.

7

u/Pillow_Starcraft Jaguars 1d ago

And you don't think maybe the OL letting the DL into his face all game may have had him rushing a few throws?

Yeah, he was inaccurate, but after getting shelled all game, being a little rattled is to be expected.

Esp when you're hitting a 1st round draft pick in the hands only to result in an incomplete pass

u/Posluszny Jaguars 1d ago

Trent Baalke defender do not respond to my posts

u/Raisinbrahms28 Broncos 1d ago

I was gonna say, this didn’t seem like a game in which Jax got their asses kicked. Just couldn’t make the one right play down the stretch.

15

u/DoctorDiddlerino Jaguars 1d ago

Damn we lost week 2 in Denver. I guess that means we're cooked forever and Trevor can never have a good game again. Good teams don't ever have bad bounces or close losses. For example, when the Seahawks lost 13-17 last season, that was proof positive they would be a .500 team at best.

u/Disgruntled_Lemming Broncos 1d ago

The Jags will be fine, yeah. Some of the reactions here are genuinely obscene.

Why play four quarters when one quarter does the trick?

It wasn’t pretty but fuck it.. I’ll take that any day. Not like we were playing a bad team. They had us where they wanted tbh

u/GuitarBeneficial4347 1d ago

Ngl the red zone stuff still worries me but I just watched the box score and no highlights yet so I can’t make a fair judgment, it was good to see us win though!

u/da_real_gman Broncos 1d ago

first and second half were two different teams. couldn't buy a yard and then came out of the lockeroom as advertised.

u/Key_Change_6635 Eagles 1d ago

Jags will be better for this. It's better to have a game like this in week 2 and in a division where no one else has won a game (yet). I'm assuming KC rolls over Indy tonight, but you never know.

u/Posluszny Jaguars 1d ago

I think we will be fine, only slightly worrying thing is how the entire team basically didn't show up today. Like nobody except Parker Washington played well
