Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2595159, member: 1899"] Good memory Bman. I've never connotised that game or even that finals series with what happened on September 11. All I remember is that the Broncos were comfortably beaten in the first week of the finals and I thought that was us for the year. This game came as a huge surprise for me and apart of me thought that if Gordie could return the next week, we could beat Parra. He didn't and we were beaten by 8 in a pretty controversial game where the Broncos fought until the end. Anyways, loving these 2008 videos. I remember the build up to the Panthers game fairly well. There was a lot of interest surrounding our new recruits heading into that game and I remember reading that we were going to be in more trouble than we were in 2007. Apparently the Broncos nearly got beaten by the Dolphins and the future was looking very poor. I still think they went into this game as favourites because the Panthers were a rabble and had a halves pairing of Frank Pritchard & Joe Williams or something similar but it was going to be an UGLY win if anything. However it was anything but and the Broncos played a really enjoyable expansive style of football and it was a nice afternoon out. Everything the fans wanted to see happened and things looked positive moving forward. Panthers ended up having a very tough rebuilding year. Meanwhile the Cowboys game was frustrating. Traditionally that would have been one of those games where the Broncos rack up 40-50+ but they seemingly pulled the pin with 30 to go and the Cowboys made us look pretty stupid at times. It was also the game where I thought there was something seriously wrong with Watts. A shame because the guy could play footy but he was just a major germ and it's really not that big a shock to see him in his state these days. [/QUOTE]
