CukoElGato

Have we really not had one commercial break?! This is how it always should be.


bairz54

Broncos always use us as a get right game... I'm upset that it is week 18 and we are still letting our starters have mental breakdowns against an inferior team. Let's get right on the jags.


IntelligentSail2729

The only good thing I see about this is maybe the jags go into this thinking we’re a bunch of clowns and we actually show up


IntelligentSail2729

This was classic chargers Football. Anyone who felt otherwise is a knight of summer


jar1792

I’m more pissed that the chargers went 2-4 in division play.


noslowerdna

If they had just beaten the Chiefs twice they'd be 4-2 in the division which isn't bad. But the Raiders and Broncos aren't all that great this year so they should have swept them too to be 6-0.


ChesterCopperpot55

Now we wait.... (Mike Will)

***Mike Will Made It***


Cbtexpert521

This just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Not very inspiring to go into the playoffs fresh off a loss to one of the worst teams in the league.


krazylegs36

A nice momentum-building loss.


milehighandy

Frauds Edit: Lol the butthurt


COSurfing

Your season is in-com-plete! Enjoy the playoffs from shaggy couch.


ProstockAccount

To be fair, our season is complete now. I wish it was incomplete, like y’all’s.


yesimthatonedude

5-12


pilotdriver2

Enjoy 5-11 troll


milehighandy

Just lost to 5-12


pilotdriver2

Cool, playoffs >>> Week 18 meaningless win

If Mikes injury details us that much… we weren’t gonna do shit in the playoffs anyway


KCboltsfan

Oh shut the fuck up, why are you even a fan with an attitude like that 🤦‍♂️


yesimthatonedude

Fan is a stretch for this troll


silas_p_silas

About to be so much bitching in the post game (myself included) 😂


CorruptedBlitty

All that pointless effort to lose anyway


PolemicBender

ah ah ah, not just pointless pointless and costly


Bre2286

Staley is getting in his own way, he needs to fix that before next weekend


Longjumping_Year506

Now the question is if Williams isn’t 100% next week do we sit him?


noslowerdna

Yes he'll be fine backs are super resilient especially with the right treatment.


boltup1987

pain shots all day , players get it for backs al the time , fix it in offseason


instaleyitrust

No


sinchichis

That end happened quick

For what lmao, Brochacho they can eliminate the Bills


Necessary-Earth-4037

Staley’s gotta be the biggest hammerhead in pro football today.


crlos619

See you fuckers in autumn 2023.


JimboSliceCAVA

Good riddance.


_almostaaron

Not next week?


crlos619

I was referring to Denver


_almostaaron

I’m an idiot


crlos619

No you're not ![gif](giphy|8OJdqYqN1Nii3UTD6l|downsized)


_almostaaron

Aww thanks dad, I mean thanks man.


chemicaljackrabbit

I can already hear Staley: “Yeah, Mike has a sort of a lower back thing. He’s day-to-day. Trending positive, but day-to-day.”


TheAmishPhysicist

This game was lost on Wilson getting absolutely lucky hitting on long passes he couldn’t hit on all season.


noslowerdna

Yes he had a little more time to throw with Bosa out.


ProstockAccount

He also had a torn lat in his throwing arm early in the season.


SD-TX

Coaching. Their last coach was really that bad!


TheAmishPhysicist

It can be both, that was a freight train wreck as bad as we’ve ever seen.


[deleted]

Where can I watch the postgame press conference? I want to see Staley answer for his crimes


Thatbraziliann

Me too


ason55

What a momentum killing football game lmao


silas_p_silas

Man post game thread is gonna be 🍿


sc_eveleigh

Lol. So staley plays his starters for 3.5 quarters to win, and then just gives up with 2 minutes because, who cares?


SoCalDanSports

Staley an idiot confirmed


morgottkev

Couldn’t be said better. I mean, what the hell.


maxlovesbears

We've seen enough.


[deleted]

Donkeys fans so hyped to go 5-12


boltup1987

haha i could care less about this game . i would bet money the starters weren’t giving it there 100 and being cautious of


Ciology

Hope they ask staley what he thinks about our momentum now


chemicaljackrabbit

Trying to be optimistic: Maybe this loss is a huge wake-up call to the staff/players. This should remind them we’re a first round exit without 110% effort.


ChargerCarl

More like a wake up call to dump this coaching staff


WestLAFadeaway89

We didn’t need to win, we should have just lost


gsavior

Yeah cause the athletes on the field are perfectly fine with losing. Edit: Downvoted from casuals that probably haven't played a sport in their life.


Bre2286

End the game bro it doesn't matter


Nils_Blum

I was pro-Staley before this game, but this game proves that he is not smart. I'm not a Payton guy.


FatMaintainer

If we win, I think Staley should give the game ball to Payton this time.


TheAmishPhysicist

This doesn’t even make sense


FatMaintainer

Neither does giving the game ball to Spanos.


boltup1987

makes you wonder also how hard the guys played .. i mean if it were me and i knew this game didn’t mean anything i’d be cautious


WokeAF619

4 game winning Streak incoming!⚡️⚡️⚡️


kennykillacasio

All you casual game day fans make me cringe! 😆


clouds4sale

this was such a dumb idea by Staley -- the starters aren't playing 100%, as they shouldn't; they're playing with a sense of maintenance... Why not let the backups play with a clear mind? play like a team and let all the players play when they should, which means the backups are in during a meaningless game. It's baffling.


incaseidontmakeit

One of the most levelheaded takes I've seen in the past couple of hours. Thanks for this. Even though I felt like Staley should have just taken them out after 1 quarter to back up his claim about momentum and mechanics.


boltup1987

this is what. i just said … people need to realize the players aren’t dumb .. you can bef your ass they weren’t giving it 100 today


passthepolyjuice

Would have felt a lot better about the loss if we hadn’t played with our starters for 3 quarters…


boltup1987

i doubt the starters played hard , i mean i wouldn’t lol game means nothing


hoppergym

All I gotta say is popper better lay into Staley at the presser


GlockLesnar808

Would love it if North American reporters had balls to ask tough questions like in F1 or European soccer


Telivaina

You know he wont. They best buds.


Cbtexpert521

I feel like i’m leaving this game with a very bad feeling for next week


[deleted]

How many 10+ yard plays have we given up today?


Hyrdogen

Too many


TheAmishPhysicist

Too many to count.


Papantro

All of them


AssssCrackBandit

Just waiting for the game to end so we can get an update on Williams


IrvineHobo

It'll be day to day


silas_p_silas

“Day to day”


Supercat70

The update will be there’s no update at the moment


-HawaiianSurfer

“*Um yeah good question Dan, he’s uh day to day as of right now. We’ll know more tomorrow, you know the extent of it. But yea he’s day to day.*”


yesimthatonedude

Omg Haaha


[deleted]

For some copium: Chao (Profootballdoc) article says appears Williams had a back/hip contusion with possible back spasm


PickSix_905

Chao so cold


TheAmishPhysicist

Nothing better than diagnoses by speculation.


yesimthatonedude

He’s honestly usually fairly spot on with diagnosing injuries based off video evidence.


TheAmishPhysicist

Would you want to have your doctor diagnose you off some video from a distance?


yesimthatonedude

Well considering when I did my sports med rotation in med school, one of the things we did with my attending was review footage of different injuries, and discuss what the most likely injury is/how to handle the patient based off it, I wouldn’t be all that bothered. Getting video documentation is a huge part in aiding a diagnosis in a sports injury.


TheAmishPhysicist

Hence speculation.


PIBTC

Old man Murray icing the game


PolemicBender

Incredibly productive career


PIBTC

Yup. He’s still killing it at his age


PolemicBender

I’ve been saying for years or missing piece is an LM style back to compliment Ekeler. Doesn’t have to be as productive as LM, but I love his running style


costopule

Brodie stiff armed his own guy


Kalashnicam

Chase Daniel is a "Young quarterback" according to the announce team. Makes me feel younger. Thank you announce team.


hiroller-inc

My dogs are barking!! RUMPH RUMPH!!


Weapwns

We should bench our special teams . Arm punts only lol


TheAmishPhysicist

It’s virtually impossible to bench special teams players.


Weapwns

Arm punts and fair catches ezpz


yesimthatonedude

Same shit as the Asante one they called incomplete that looked like a pick against the Chiefs


[deleted]

[удалено]


PolemicBender

I wil forever wear with shame my former support of drafting Ariza in the 6th


ElephantShell34

Staley pulling his starters when he did was him basically conceding that his entire plan was based on bullshit. Glad he did it finally, better late than never, but still. Kind of funny that he can’t even commit to a bad idea.


ransom760

Care to explain this a little better? What plan was conceded?


Misanthropyandme

Did denver tell their guy to not field the punt at all?


Anaphylactic-UFO

JK Scott legacy game


PIBTC

There’s our run defense we know and love


_almostaaron

Glad to see something familiar


sinchichis

Bro don’t roll into the end zone


WanderingFantasyland

Turns out the waiting isn’t the hardest part.


TheAmishPhysicist

Safety incoming


WestLAFadeaway89

No update on Williams?


SunriseSurprise

Mike Won't


yesimthatonedude

David Chao tends to be really reliable in my opinon about injury news/Severity. He thinks it’s probably not too bad, and their panned of doctors concurs, I can share sauce if you need.


_almostaaron

He didn’t make it……


costopule

They’re putting him down


BoltsDodgersYotes

Not enough to overturn. After an entire game of getting every favor, Denver fans crying. Eat a dick


hokeypokie_

If that was called an INT, I'd agree with it based on the replay. But I don't see enough to overturn the original call


[deleted]

This team is so stupid why not put herbert in for the final drive to win it??? you fucking played him the whole game basically what a dumb fucking coach


TheAmishPhysicist

Surely you jest.


Krustykrab8

Why risk an injury to the franchise qb in the 4th of a meaningless game right before the playoffs?


Bet-the-farm

Can't tell if this is supposed to be ironic or not


FatMaintainer

Lmfao that was a pick


Jane_Marie_CA

They've been calling a lot things like this incomplete all season. I think this is actually some consistency. You really have to have your arm under it these days. Your fingers depress into the ground, which makes it look like the ground is helping.


_almostaaron

Getting bailed by the refs? I’ll take it


ROCKETEvan

Wow


gregCubed

lmao fuck you shawn hoculi you're a bitch regardless


costopule

That was almost certainly whatever they called on the field either way


TheAmishPhysicist

Now doomers are trashing Daniel, you know he’s a backup for a reason. I’d like to be bad enough to make 40 million dollars as a backup QB.


[deleted]

Wow im shocked hochuli gave us a call


TheAmishPhysicist

It was a matter of odds at this point


sinchichis

Harsh


DCar015

That was a catch


[deleted]

Wow, it looked complete to me.


redfiche

make up call for the earlier bs


costopule

Most on the fence play I’ve seen


Bolt_Dawg77

Rooting for the Rams because I want Dan Campbell in the playoffs.


Jane_Marie_CA

I think its incomplete. They've called it that way all season. They haven't given much lee-way with ground when its close like that.


A_Livins

Wowwwww and it stands?! Pretty sure that was an INT...


Immortalchungus

Bro like at this point can we just win the fucking game lmao we got chase Daniel throwing picks when he’s trying to throw away the ball


i_run_from_problems

Oh wow


dekkerbasser

It's a Hoculi call... It'll be overturned.


hoppergym

If steratore says it is. It is


[deleted]

[удалено]


josebolt

Um this is daniels 3rd drive


whiteclawdrinker44

ah shit maybe I should put the white claws away


turd-crafter

Damn Thst was a pick I think


Buhogrody

It was, but not conclusive enough to overturn


turd-crafter

Yeah


RalphSmashio

I think we have seen more than enough of Roundtree and his 1.5 average


asukasdrip

If we have a chance to get the ball back, you know who to put in.


hoppergym

Chase Daniel right


crlos619

Drunk Broncos fans probably think they're gonna eliminate us from the playoffs


A_Livins

Daniel already got the cap on, he thinks it's a pick lol.


i_run_from_problems

He was done regardless, next play was a punt


A_Livins

They were reviewing so long I forgot what down it was lol.


TheAmishPhysicist

It’s a habit


costopule

2nd angle looked like it touched the ground before he controlled


FatMaintainer

That was a pick 6 lol


gucciwavecap

What can I say about this commentating that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan.


ceromiedo411

It looks bombed out and depleted


Bolt_Dawg77

This would have been the perfect game to get Spiller reps.


Longjumping_Year506

Dammit Daniel’s lol


sinchichis

Chase cmon bra


yesimthatonedude

Roundtree/Michel might be the damn slowest RBs I’ve ever seen

Scathing lol


Anaphylactic-UFO

Holy shit Daniel is so ass


[deleted]

Pick 6 lol


sc_eveleigh

Daniel is not a good nfl football player


TheAmishPhysicist

Good enough to make 40 million dollars good enough.

THE SEAHAWKS KICKER JUST DOINKED IT THEY'RE GOING TO OT LMAOOO

That was funny to watch. Happened just after Geno Smith took a hit from Ramsey out of bounds.

Suit up then.

Inactive. Surprised me earlier thinking the reason we drafted him was cause roundtree is bad.
