LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!

In the first hour, DMac and Tom talk about the big story of the day – The Broncos lose a heartbreaker at home to the Bears on Sunday. Who is on the Milk Carton this week? During THE Countdown, Vic Fangio doubled down on Garrett Bolles being the starter and for the first time since 2007, the Broncos have back-to-back games without a defensive sack. This Broncos team was built using the formula that constructed the 2015 defense, but is the formula working?

To look on the bright side, the offense looked stronger behind Joe Flacco and Emmanuel Sanders looked electric! What do the guys make of the way pass rushers are being officiated? Who was the big winner from the prop bets on Friday?

 

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!

LISTEN TO HOUR FOUR HERE!

In the fourth hour, DMac and Tom go through the Top Six – Vic Fangio doubled down on Garrett Bolles being the starter, the Rockies swept the Padres and for the first time since 2007 the Broncos had back-to-back games without a defensive sack or takeaway. What happened around the NFL over the weekend? The guys try and look at the bright side of things after the Broncos lost a heartbreaker against the Bears on Sunday.
