BROOMFIELD — It had been exactly 287 days since Boulder and Broomfield staged one of the most epic matches in state history in the Class 5A title match at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The players were different and, most certainly, so were the stakes, but Saturday night’s rematch at Elizabeth Kennedy Stadium certainly had the feel of something very special. The sequel lived up to the billing and Boulder, much like it did on that November night — albeit in 14 rounds of a penalty shoot-out — got the better of Broomfield 1-0 in front of packed house.

    Initial thoughts from the Broncos’ 34-27 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16 at SoFi Stadium: 1. Self-inflicted wounds: As sheer pain goes, that Chiefs road game’s got a little company now. You don’t need to see the world with orange-and-blue glasses to notice that the Broncos gifted the Bolts at least nine points in the middle of the contest.

    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/19/2024 - 11:29 PM

    INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Sean Payton never felt settled during the Broncos’ recent bye week. He said he never fully does. A few days with the prospect of more work ahead isn’t long enough to truly decompress. And the task is even tougher when you’re trying to end an eight-year playoff drought. As the Broncos returned to action ahead of a game against Indianapolis, he called out one area that he was particularly concerned about.

    Denver Post, Thursday - 12/19/2024 - 11:22 PM

    A look at how the Broncos’ rookies played in their 34-27 loss to the Chargers on Thursday night. Highlight: Kris Abrams-Draine was known for his ball skills at Missouri.
