McGahee, Royal, Bailey dominate Raiders in 38-24 Broncos win

Posted Sun Nov 6th by

Eddie Royal to the house!

Tim Tebow gets by with a little help from his friends.

On Sunday, his friends didn’t just “help” — they dominated.

Running back Willis McGahee burst free at the very end of the third quarter with a 60-yard touchdown run, totaling 163 yards rushing against the Oakland Raiders. Wide receiver Eddie Royal returned a punt 85 yards for a touchdown and caught a 26-yard touchdown pass as well.

The defense stepped up in the turnovers department, with Champ Bailey intercepting Carson Palmer twice and Chris Harris adding an interception of his own. Elvis Dumervil registered his first sack of the season (1.5, sharing a sack with Von Miller), and the Denver Broncos dominated the 2nd half of their Week 9 football game in Oakland to defeat the Raiders 38-24.

Tim Tebow was efficient in the air and dangerous on the ground. He threw for 124 yards on 21 attempts (10 completions) and two touchdowns, but more impressively, he rushed for 117 yards. It was the first time the Broncos have boasted a 100-yard-rushing running back and quarterback in the same game in over three decades.

The win over Oakland (4-4) left the Broncos (3-5) as the only team in the AFC West to win in Week 9; both Kansas City (4-4) and San Diego (4-4) lost their respective games. They may be last in the division, but the Broncos are also one game away from the division lead with eight games to play.

    So then its bad defenses is why collage offenses do not work in the NFL? I thought it was free agency?!?

    My point is that you shouldn’t laugh to hard or to much… There are a number of reasons why they do not work in the NFL, Free agency and your own defense is not why… 

    I really don’t know what the Atlanta Defense of those days was like, didn’t follow them but I did live near Houston myself and had season tickets for the Oilers for 3 years. Year one the Broncos were coming to town and I wanted to make sure I got to see them ;-)… Any way other than one game in Buffalo the Oilers had a very stout D in those days, opposite of Atlanta, in fact Houston had the 3rd ranked D in the league… 

    Now Buffalo’s “K-Gun” was pretty successful showing up in 4 super bowls but it was never enough to win one. Sorry but I would not believe it was not because they had no players for it and had no defense, we ALL know better than that. And still none ever made it turn into a championship and as all other afore mentioned offenses, faded into nothing.

    Sure, technically Tebow is second year.  But you show your hate/bias when you make it seem like he had started all of those games. 

    Tebow is 3-3 so far.  Start for start, Tebow is coming along nicely.

    No one said Tebow is the “messiah”.  Only the heathen say that.

    “Someday someone, or some team, will develop the next stage, or evolution, of offense.”

    100% agree… But it will not be a collage offense that does it. Like  you mention, the “West Coast Offense”, changed offensive football for sure and lots of teams still use variants of it and will for more years to come. It in of itself was not a collage offense either. Many have made it just as equally successful as Walsh & Joey… See “copy cat league” above. Once the next best thing is proven others will follow as always… Kinda fun to watch I think.

  • King

    Everyone but the Packers are weak.  Look at their records.  We are weaker, unfortunately.  Tebow throws fewer picks than Orton.  I would rather see a young QB throw some incompletions that suffer the deflation of repeated picks.

    Welp if ESPN has it that way it must be so…lol. Still isn’t going to happen!

  • King

    Precisely, Dom.

    By his second year Eli Manning was the starter, Tebow was/is not even close.

  • Anonymous

    You have no answer then.

  • Anonymous

    You’re delusional.  The only reason Tebow has not been intercepted more often is because the majority of his incompletions don’t even land in the same county.

  • Anonymous

    I would not want to see us lose either.

    NFL – Not For Long.  Tebow is a high paid 1st round pick.  Like it or not he is expected to be able to play and start by now.  If he cannot then the Broncos need to move on.

  • Audi

    Sub .500 completion percentage AGAIN is pretty good?  hmmm

  • Audi

    Speak of morons…..Tebow has not shown shit in the NFL yet, other then being a poor QB.

  • King

    Never said he was, but he is improving. You can’t even see that.

    This is fun.

  • Audi

    Wow really?  That is just pure comedy gold.

  • King

    The answer is simple for anyone paying attention.  McCoy and company have somewhat adapted the play calling to Tim’s strengths right now. 

    Surely you can see this ?

  • King

    Please start paying attention.  Sure, some of his passes have been incompletions, but even Tebow has said he has thrown some of them away.  And that is better than an underthrow that is intercepted.  Orton would try to make throws that he doesn’t have the arm strength to make. 

    Part of being a man is knowing your strengths and weaknesses.  It is also wise in your line of work. 

  • Audi

    And it is amazing you think Tebow won those games by himself.  He had zero to do with winning in Miami.  ZERO.  Watch the game already.

  • Audi

    ok, that was just funny as hell

  • King

    Zero?  Wow, just wow Audi.  That’s a ridiculous statement, even for you.

    “Tebow is currently 3-3 as a starter.  That’s a lot better than even Eli Manning in his first 6 starts”

    No you said he was better than Manning.

    Which is why the messiah crowd was so silent last week.  Are you really this stupid?

    The delusional resort to the drug addled to confirm their fantasies.

  • Anonymous

    They’ve figured out Tebow is pretty much lost in the pocket.  Throwing the ball is an absolute last resort now.  They may as well just send out the punting unit on 3rd and anything longer than eight yards.

    Bill Romanowski would like to sell you some supplements too.

    Two weeks ago I was at a favorite bar and sat next to a nice older gentleman who happened to be a retired uppity up from the BSU AD.  He was wearing the Fiesta Bowl ring when they beat Oklahoma (huge ring).  Anyway, we talked a little bit of football and he is the one who told me Moore is the same size as Brees.  Of course he could talking up Moore, or Trog could be right.  Who knows.

    “Tebow is currently 3-3 as a starter.  That’s a lot better than even Eli Manning in his first 6 starts”

    I am comparing record.  It’s called reading comprehension.  Try it. 

  • King

    Let me take my time so you can understand football more clearly:

    Any player in this league can and will perform better if a coaching staff formulates plays that utilize their player’s strengths.  There are innumerable examples of this is you take your blinders off and look around.  I would suggest reading some of Pat Kirwan’s writings on this.

    The Broncos are doing it with multiple players on any given play.  And that is just one team. 

  • King

    There’s a difference between taking steroids to compete against players 10 years younger than oneself and being drug addled.  You would grasp this if your hubris was bridled. 

  • Lovethebroncos

    The dictionary under the word “Moron” has your picture.

  • F-U-COLT-OF-TEBOW

     you guys are tards, so the read option worked for one game, you got another thing coming if you think we can win consistently like this. You F&%$ers may talk now about how great tebow is, but mark my words in 5 games you all will be drinking the hater aid. I am sure I will be called an idiot and a moron for this comment , but just you Fu%^&ng wait. 5 games and all the tebow cool aid drinkers will finally shut their mouths. I don’t want him on my team and I don’t want to put up with his crazy fan base either. You people ( Tebow’s crazy fan base) are a cancer on an NFL team and god help any team who takes Tebow after this year ( because I guarantee you he will not be a bronco) So talk all you want F*&%k tards in the end your all a bunch of ignorant s&%t heads who don’t know their head from their ass. TRUTH!

  • moop

    It was an impressive performance by Royal, Decker, Baily, Mcgahee, dumerville, and miller. Tebow just dick rode them to victory. Tebow is a scrub!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Turkduckin

  • Turkduckin

    and you are a 40 yr. old virgin that watches star trek and dreams to one day put your tiny penis inside a woman.

  • Turkduckin

  • Turkduckin

    and you sir are going to hell for molesting goats

  • Turkduckin

    the answer is he got lucky, he sucks, and you suck ( big black dick)

  • Turkduckin

    Let me tell you about football: the quarterback’s job is to throw the football. tebow cannot do this. If you argue otherwise you are a dumb ass fuck tard. peace bitch!

  • Turkduckin

     Arron Rodgers is successful because he has a quick release, a strong accurate arm, great field vision (he has such good peripheral vision he doesn’t even turn his head towards the receiver) and great foot work in the pocket. Rodgers is a freaking talented QB. DO NOT FUCKING TRY AND COMPARE HIM TO THE RUN OF THE MILL COLLEGE PROJECT. YOU CANNOT DEVELOP SOME OF THE SKILL SHE HAS.    

  • Turkduckin

    UH YOUR A FAGOT SO SHUT YOUR MOUTH BITCH. YOU HAVE THE IQ OF A JAR OF MAYONNAISE. IN FACT YOUR PROBABLY THE STUPIDEST POSTER HERE…

  • Turkduckin

  • Turkduckin
