Inside the Broncos’ locker room after the 16-9 win over the Texans, Head Coach Nathaniel Hackett gives out game balls to key performers — and gets one back for his first win as head coach.

As a Broncos fan base let’s just not hit the panic button.
We got this one and let’s move to the next victim.
LETS GO BRONCOS!!!!
Anyone not hitting the panic button rn is in for a world of disappointment very soon.
Lmao, bro, we getting stomped by the niners next week
Ya bro it’s gonna take some time. Russ brand new to this team but not just him, literally every key coaching position is brand new too. They’re all still getting acclimated and whatnot I’ll give it time.
Y’all be hating on Hackett for no reason lol. Ik he has had hella mistakes that if he keeps making should and will get him fired but these are his first two games as head coach let him learn. It’ll eventually click and once it does we will roll… Let’s ride
I tend to take the coaches side for the most part — however, you can’t blame people for wanting a better product after we had two other “first-time” head coaches and they were making the same mistakes Hackett has. I agree in allowing time for growth, but people are losing patience. Hopefully this staff gets better as the season wears on.

@Padon Eckhardt Belluchick has known since birth not to run down the clock, waste 3 timeouts and kick a 64-yarder AT SEA F’ING LEVEL with Russell Wilson as your quarterback on 4th and 5 to end the game! Find me annnnnny Pop Warner to NFL coach that doesn’t understand basic stuff like that. Diehard Bronco fans are fed up being smarter than the Head Coach these last few years. He never would’ve gotten the job when Mr. Bowlen was at the helm. This is atrocious and destined to get REAL BAD with the competition looming, but I hope you and Captain of the Pep Squad prove me wrong lol #livingonaprayer
@Josue Sirias no but they need to learn to be patient. Takes time to be a good coach.
If you’re satisfied with this victory you are definitely in denial to the problems we have.
Unless…. if every body in that crowd, man woman and child has played in the grid iron, then I’d have to go with your statement.
@StrangeClouds I’ve played football and he’s right. Y’all are grasping at straws to clutch the very minor points you have. Should have just left this comment alone cuz deep down you know it’s right
Never felt so joyless after a win. Somebody better clean up this cluster dump because we have to play real teams coming up.
agreed. i even really hate texas but i feel nothing after this win. hollow victory
Get ready for the pain my orange brothers. There will be light at the end of the tunnel, but this team is still forming. New owners, new coach, new QB? This season should only have one real goal, to forge the team that will do battle for the next 5 years together.
@Phillip Hargett well said!
@Phillip Hargett That’s the most realistic approach. Unfortunately, Broncos fans are just over it.
is it bad that i felt better about last weeks loss than this weeks win
Facts
Ur instincts are correct, sir.
Barely beating Houston at home is concerning
Hackett making Fangio look like the better head coach out there
great job guys keep it up!!!!!! Broncos
The fact that they’re even celebrating over that win tells me they’re gonna get mudstomped once they finally have to play a real team.
hackett will be handing out game balls after losses so he has a reason to scream like a crazy person
We just need to get out of our own way
C’mon Broncos we love you guys
A wins a win, it’s only game 2 with a completely new organization realistically. Let it gel, let it develop-it’s going to be painful sometimes but it will come together like a greased machine soon. People calling for the coaches head already are the reason the broncos haven’t had a stable season yet. Just chill for a second, let’s see how this season starts to unfold before we freak out. That being said some of the coaching is HORRIFIC and keeps me yelling at the TV. But a win is a win and I am not going to jump ship when we’re only two games in. Get thicker skin as a fan base
On the bright side how about randy Gregory !? I like him he’s a game changer on defense
Some of y’all forget that when manning first came here we started off the season 2-3 then ended up winning 11 in a row… patience is key. We have a completely new coaching staff, QB, and owner. We’ll be alright just be patient and trust the process.
That’s what I’m saying!
I was in section 236 preaching this yesterday and no one wanted to hear! lol, relax my people!
Manning was also coming off of major neck surgeries and no one was even sure if he’d be able to return to his former ability when he came here. Regardless, it’s a brand new staff of coaches/coordinators, they should improve as they get more familiar with everything and as they improve decisions should be faster. As Hackett said, lots to clean up.
It’s a really great comparison. Also, despite all the early issues I love the way Hackett handles himself with the media and how much it’s obvious he loves these players and they love him. 1-1 start isn’t the end of the world, everybody calm down. 17 game season
@Vincent Trujillo – DOC I got to ask what were people saying I’m the stands 😂😂 all I saw was fans defeated on tv
There’s no way I would be celebrating if I was a broncos player
I’m glad the broncos won but them playing sloppy for the two weeks already is a concern. Nice win but they have a lot of work to do 💯
I love my Broncos. But dang, it’s so hard to ignore what our eyes see. Injuries, bad play-calling, penalties, bad O-line play, bad time management. I get it, the coaches are new but fu**! They’re professionals, they can’t be this dang bad.
The Broncos made tons of mistakes, but people need to understand that they are playing world class athletes no matter which team they are playing. It will all come together…..
Yes, lets celebrate 13 penalties, blowing all our time outs in 2nd half, not having the punt receiving team on the field, Coach who is in over his head, the crowd having to countdown the play clock for you
Even if we score low points all season as long as we win these low scoring games we still will have a Fantastic Season Go Broncos let’s ride
I mean its annoying how sloppy its been but its too early to give up on this group. They are still learning the system, their roles, and building chemistry. You’ve got to be able to find ways to steal wins in the meantime
Why were there no game balls for the defense? To me they were an important factor, give them some love.
