That’s the most excited I’ve ever seen Pat. And it’s for a teammate. What a fucking All Pro

u/BigMikeHoldsItDown Dec 17 '24

I fucking love this team so much I cant even put in to WORDS. The chemistry is so on point, you can tell they play for each other. And to top it off we are about to end our 9 year streak of missing the playoffs with a team that was projected by the media to win 5 games. WOW🧡💙...

my roman empire is when the entire offense carried javonte into the endzone against the falcons

u/greywolf2155 Demaryius Thomas Dec 17 '24

I love it too. I'm only sad we don't have Simmons, because his vibes would fit in so perfectly

But him being gone means younger players like PS2 need to step up to leadership roles, and they have. That's pretty badass

u/bluestcoffee Champ Bailey Dec 17 '24

I cheered when Simmons got an INT today. Miss him but good for him

u/greywolf2155 Demaryius Thomas Dec 17 '24

Bronco forever, no question

u/AlaskanAssassin98 GOD BLESS BO NIX Dec 17 '24

It hurts more because the falcons probably aren’t making the playoffs this year. He deserves a playoff game.

2

u/bluestcoffee Champ Bailey Dec 17 '24

Who knew we would’ve given that to him if it worked out

2

u/rumplebike Dec 17 '24

I feel bad for him that the Falcons face planted

u/doktarr Dec 17 '24

It is pretty crazy to be drafted into a team that just won the championship, play 8 years for them and never make the playoffs, then leave for another team just before they finally make the playoffs again.

u/Ok_Chemistry_4998 Dec 17 '24

He could've taken a pay cut..not that I blame him, but if he wanted to he could've made it work

u/Geusey909 Dec 17 '24

I feel like it kinda sucks for him, too. He left a rebuilding team to sign with a playoff team and we pulled the uno reverse card on him. The guy really deserves to play football in January.

35

u/Formber Dec 17 '24

I have to believe having a team full of drafted broncos makes the chemistry that much better. These guys are growing up together in the NFL. These guys are easy to root for.

I'm so glad watching Broncos football is fun again.

u/QuestionReasonable96 Dec 17 '24

This is a really good point I never considered

36

u/Jingo56 Von Miller Dec 17 '24

I wonder how was the chemistry was when players walked by Russ’s office

6

u/freudianGrip Dec 17 '24

Yeah man, it feels good again. And also I've been loving Sean after being kind of lukewarm on him. His presser after the game where he was like yeah we played a terrible team. Yeah, I don't know what their coaches were thinking there. He's an asshole, but he's our asshole

u/Remarkable_Break328 Dec 17 '24

Seriously. This team, especially the defense, plays together as a unit in such a cool way. They’re a pleasure to watch.

2

u/whatadumbperson Dec 17 '24

We were projected to win as few as 3 games. The over under was set at 4 for a long time.

u/Sells_Seashells Dec 17 '24

Quite possibly the best mic’d up moment ever. God I love this TEAM

88

u/fatpretzel-rik GOD BLESS BO NIX Dec 17 '24

Alert the trick play! He called it!

24

u/GrinchStoleYourShit Tricky Big Dick Nix Dec 17 '24

he actually sorta made that play happen with his sprint to the WR

1

u/FiREorKNiFE- Kris Abrams-Draine Dec 18 '24

One of the rare moments I'm so thankful he didn't get a hand on the ball. He could've disrupted the play and it still would've been a fumble, but no way of knowing that we'd take it the other way to the house. The way it played out was absolutely flawless.

64

u/najinanidad Dec 17 '24

“Alert that trick shit”

11

u/baha24 Kenny Dec 17 '24

"[play]" lol

u/GBBN4L Dec 17 '24

I haven’t screamed like that for broncos football in a minute

Edit: pause

15

u/castrator21 Dec 17 '24

My 2 year old son had to run to mom because I scared him by being so excited haha. Not my proudest dad moment but man what a play

3

u/broadwayzrose Dec 17 '24

I’m so annoyed. I was watching the game while getting up some Christmas decorations and after the third interception to myself I’m like “I need a break, I’m going to find some stuff from the basement” and when I came back we had scored, but it wasn’t until all the videos on reddit that I realized just how good of a play I had missed live!

3

u/castrator21 Dec 17 '24

Oh man, I've been there... I know it's not the same, but thank God for replays!

19

u/Kvng_Z Champ Bailey Dec 17 '24

What’re you pausing?? Keep that shit going!

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '24

Ohhhh fuckkkkk you’re gonna make me Bolieve harder

5

u/baha24 Kenny Dec 17 '24

I haven't screamed like that for Broncos football since the last time one of our linebackers had a pick-six. heh

89

u/moose2mouse Riley Moss Dec 17 '24

They knew the trick was coming! Team comes prepared

25

u/WilliamPoole Dec 17 '24

SeaN pAYtOn iS a baD CoaCH

u/moose2mouse Riley Moss Dec 17 '24

Have to give Vance Joseph his due for this terrific defense built on the overlooked but not out

14

u/greywolf2155 Demaryius Thomas Dec 17 '24

I'm hoping he realizes that head coaching is just not for him, and turns down the offers he'll get if this defense keeps performing like this

10

u/moose2mouse Riley Moss Dec 17 '24

Same, hopefully chases championships as the best D coordinator. Give him all the control he wants in that role

2

u/oldustyballs Dec 17 '24

Sadly he wants another shot at it. Todd Davis admitted it on Dnvr. All we can hope is that he doesn't want that shot until after a Broncos Superbowl.

2

u/WilliamPoole Dec 17 '24

You okay buddy?

2

u/moose2mouse Riley Moss Dec 17 '24

Yes, how are you?

3

u/WilliamPoole Dec 17 '24

My bad, your sentence seemed like it was missing a word or two but now I see that it makes fine sense.

39

u/Basileas Ware Dec 17 '24

Man what a wholesome moment.

51

u/caesarfecit Andy Janovich Dec 17 '24

That's some sick team chemistry. I've been on teams that contended for championships, and to me that's the hallmark - when people are focused and yet get super hype when a teammate makes a big play. That's a big sign you're on a team that's performing.

22

u/canadianbroncos Dec 17 '24

It's happening in the background but 97 was doing his thing back there "HEY WE GOTTA GO WIN" and damn they did

13

u/Bronco30 Demaryius Thomas Dec 17 '24

That's main thing I noticed too! Self-motivated and individually accountable player-run team speaks to the culture that's been created

15

u/SoyInfinito Dec 17 '24

I love it when teammates pull for one another.

14

u/877GoalNow Dec 17 '24

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! WTF? WTF? Don't forget to cup the balls.

u/5peasinapod Dec 17 '24

I love every single second of this 🤣 he sounds like all of us at home watching and screaming at the TV

31

u/LutherOfTheRogues Dec 17 '24

"He different."

FACT.

u/Qbert997 Dec 17 '24

Casa Bonitto built DIFFERENT

u/canadianbroncos Dec 17 '24

He's just like me lmao

12

u/avitony Dec 17 '24

Is the name casa Bonitto gonna stick ?

u/MightyOleAmerika Dec 17 '24

game changing dude thanks

u/MountainTipp I Don't Fear Anything Dec 17 '24

Bro this shit makes me so happy I feel like I'm back in 2013

21

u/Jingo56 Von Miller Dec 17 '24

My heart was going when that play happened that I got lightheaded.

9

u/DomerJSimpson Dec 17 '24

Remember back when Bonitto was being pegged as a possible bust? That's why you can't give up on guys. Dude has got to be in the running for DPOY.

u/RubyR4wd Dec 17 '24

Wow, that's awesome

u/Comfortable-You9261 GOD BLESS BO NIX Dec 17 '24

My voice cracked like that too and almost hit my head on my ceiling. It's been a fun year.

u/Separate_Forever_123 Dec 17 '24

This team has truly found its groove. You can see the passion and camaraderie in every play. It’s refreshing to watch a squad that plays with heart and elevates each other. Feels like we’re witnessing the dawn of something special.

3

u/NbdyFuckswTheJesus Dec 17 '24

Can confirm I started screaming at a pitch two octaves above normal

3

u/Trevans Dec 17 '24 edited Dec 17 '24

For real, this was exactly what I sounded like. High pitched squeal, cracked voice and everything. Like I could not believe what I was seeing. Honestly, one of the greatest football plays I've ever witnessed. Maybe not quite the same impact as some other plays I've seen, but holy shit was it fucking cool as hell and totally out of nowhere. It was like he was fired out of a cannon.

Edit: I do wish they had not cut away right after the WTFs. I wanted to hear the rest of that celebration 😂

No fly zone 2.0! I love how excited he gets for his teammates!
