After an impressive season opening win against the Seattle Seahawks http://www.denverbroncosteamonline.com/brandon-marshall-jersey , the Denver Broncos struggled to get things going offensively early on. It was an up-and-down game, with little hope existing until the final moments. But sometimes, all you have to do is believe, right?In prototypical Oakland Raiders dysfunctional fashion, they crumbled in the fourth quarter, resulting in a 20-19 comeback victory for our beloved franchise. Without further adieu, here are five things we learned from the Broncos’ miraculous comeback victory.1. The Broncos’ offensive start was dreadful Womens Phillip Lindsay Jersey , but they came together when it mattered mostA few words come to mind when attempting to describe the Broncos’ offensive effort against the Raiders in the first half, but I’ll refrain from expletives and just symbolize it as this — dreadful.Outside of Phillip Lindsay’s 53-yard run in the first half and quality pass protection, there was little positive about what the offense did. They accomplished little-to-nothing on first downs and struggled immensely on third downs. When that happens, nothing good usually happens. It was an absolute disaster and a far cry from what we witnessed last week against the Seahawks. The offense gained just 114 yards and two first downs the entire first half — but their fortunes changed in the final two quarters.After some key adjustments by Offensive Coordinator Bill Musgrave, the Broncos’ offense performed much better in the second half. They finished the game with 385 total yards and 20 first downs and put together scoring drives when it mattered most. I do have to note that one major disappointment that was constant throughout the game was Demaryius Thomas, who dropped far too many passes for a veteran of his caliber and presence. 2. Royce Freeman and Phillip Lindsay continue to impressThe thunder and lightning duo of of Royce Freeman and Phillip Lindsay were a major reason why the Broncos were able to win on opening day, and their success continued into this afternoon’s game against the Raiders.Lindsay was the hot hand for most of the game and had himself another one hundred all-purpose yard effort http://www.denverbroncosteamonline.com/bradley-roby-jersey , but Freeman’s presence was felt in the second half where he racked up a touchdown and had a couple of first down conversions. While Freeman might be listed as the number one tailback on the Broncos’ depth chart, there is no doubt that the undrafted rookie from the University of Colorado has been the better performer and more versatile weapon to start the season.3. The Broncos’ depth at corner is a significant problem and so are the coverage’s Joe Woods was callingThis was my biggest concern on the defensive side of the ball to begin the season, and that worry came to fruition today in the win against the Raiders. Traimane Brock and Adam Jones struggled in coverage, both giving up big plays through the air on drives that resulted in points for Oakland. Even Bradley Roby and Chris Harris Jr. had their own issues, and the latter reportedly voiced his frustration with the play calls at the start of the fourth quarter. The most frustrating thing to witness all game long was Joe Woods’ continuously having his corners in off-man coverage. There was a reason why Derek Carr was able to carve up Denver’s secondary with the short passing game. When you have all that room to work with, hitting receivers on three-step drops is just too easy — just like stealing candy from a baby. Hopefully Woods can take a good hard look at the tape and realize his mistakes and correct them for future games down the road.4. Today’s referees clearly don’t understand what a catch isThere were a handful of instances where catches were overturned in today’s game. You’d think with the rule changes, there would be a bit more consistency in that regard — but apparently not. I’m not sure any of the overturns were the correct call and neither were the analysts calling the game (and experts in New York) which is extremely worrisome. Hell Authentic Bradley Chubb Jersey , maybe I just don’t know what a catch is! So if anyone can help me out in the comments section, by all means do. Nevertheless, without question, The Word Call of the Game Award goes to the denying of Courtland Sutton’s miraculous touchdown grab near the end of the third quarter. I know that was a catch and I think everyone watching knew it was too. Missed calls like that are most definitely game-changers (and they missed more than just those calls) and it surely had an adverse impact on the Broncos in today’s affair against the Raiders.5. An ugly win is always better than a lossIt wasn’t pretty by any means, but the Broncos showed a lot of heart with their comeback victory today. Without question, it’s a Hell of a lot better to start the season off 2-0 than 1-1. Let’s hope they can correct some of the major issues we witnessed today and head into next week’s game against the Baltimore Ravens at full steam and better prepared so they can start off their 2018 campaign 3-0.So Broncos Country, what were your five big observations from today’s game? Sound off in the comments section and make your voice heard! Winter has arrived in Denver http://www.denverbroncosteamonline.com/jared-veldheer-jersey , Colorado as the Denver Broncos (2-3) host the high-powered Los Angeles Rams (5-0) in the blustery cold and snow of the Mile High City in Week 6.For the first time in a long while, the Broncos might actually be forced to keep the ball on the ground. Their rushing attack is ranked among the best in the NFL, but has been mostly under-utilized during their three-game losing streak. That alone gives me a little hope, but the Rams offense is about as scary as it gets. If the Broncos defense plays like it did last week, they might give up 50+ points in this game. However, I think they rebound and play with a lot of energy and pride in this game. It should be a closer-than-expected affair provided the coaching staff doesn’t shoot the team in the foot again this week.Broncos vs. Rams live updatesGame Info / Live UpdatesEverything we know Tweets from https://twitter.com/MileHighReport/lists/the-broncos-beat
