OK, so I know we won, but what the hell hapepned? Sportscenter hasn't had any good highlights yet. I only get TWO televised games this year, and that's when they play the local team, so I gotta look to you guys who can see it on TV for help. How did the rookies look? And what's with this JT on offense thing I hear? Fill me in guys!

JT was playing tight end in the goalline package.

Go G-Men!
ESPN should be doing highlights in the next few min.
Honestly, I'm still in shock that we won. Gus looked good. Ronnie too. No major complaints, except too many false start penalties...

hey thanks guys. JT in at TE in goal line? wow, that has potential. To be hoinest I was in no rush to check the scores (couldn't catch any games today due to traveling home) because I figured the Miami score would just depress me, but then when I saw they won by 24, I freaked out. This has been an AWESOME weekend of football for me, my Texas Longhorns won prolly the biggest game of their season last night too, it was a nail-biter, but we pulled it off, and now this, I'm so stoked.
Local T.V. had the game out west
I watched the game locally in Salt Lake City. The score should have been 8 points higher as the Dolphins got stopped in the red zone twice and settled for field goals. Otherwise, the game was totally dominated by the Dolphins and our 13th player (oppressive heat and humidity).
The first half was all defense and they stopped the Bronco's from doing anything. The commentators were besides themselves saying Denver should have done something, but did give credit to the defense who just dominated them. Did I mention that the broncos had ZERO passing yards in the first half.
Miami did show some offensive sparks and had a really good reverse play where Chambers ran 60 yards in the first half. He stepped out of bounds near the 20 and the offense settled for a field goal. Second half was a better story as the Dolphins had very few punts and moved the ball well. Ronnie Brown had a typical rookie performance but did what the offensive needed. The offensive line was mediocre at best during running plays, but kept Frerotte on his feet most of the game.
Some of the games highlight players were McMichael throwing his body around and making great catches, Welker coming of nowhere also keeping the chains moving, and Roth starting the only fight of the game when he pushed Plummer in the back after throwing an interception.
One last thing, the only touchdown the Broncos got was from a fumble on a kickoff return at their 20 yard line. If it weren't for that error, in my opinion they would have been limited to one field goal.
