that's the deal when you get thoroughly outplayed in back-to- back losses. lots to fix begin with slow starts. the broncos have given up points on the opening drive. on offense denver has not rushed for over 100 yards in their last four games. the once potent passing attack appears to be relegated to dink and dunk. trevor siemian only completed one passover 20 yards. to add insult to injury we had to get the ball in the end zone on the hail mary, it came up short. >> yeah. i was kind of upset about that. i don't even think i got it in the end zone. probably through it too soon. chance to tie the game up at the end. i don't even think i got in there. that was my fault. i'd like to do that one again. did we mention the penalties? 12 for over 100 yards none bigger than the russell okung holding call which negated the touchdown on c.j. anderson's catch and run. to make matters worse, okun went to the hospital with a concussion. he has been released. what's your level of
