If we could have just bottled up Bell on one of those runs, we walk out of Denver with a 'W'.
Two defensive breakdowns is what hurt us, but considering we had a few key guys out I really don't think we can complain about the D too much.
I really think this team has playoff potential, and even though we lost, I still feel like we accomplished something today. To go to Denver in the elements and take them down to the wire like that, it's something we shouldn't downplay.

My sentiments exactly. If a team like this can dominate in time possesion and offensive yards and lose and nail biter like this leaves me with optimism after a loss. A loss was bound to happen, and against a team that had won 3 in a row and at home? I mean Denver couldn't move the ball and I knew that Jimoh and Rodgers in the backfield would cause problems. I give our offense an A- and the defense a C+. Lavar needs to get his shit together because he is not helping things at all.
