During the first three weeks of the 2016 NFL season, fans of the teams beaten by your Denver Broncos have complained about being screwed by officiating, bad luck and plenty of other earthly factors.
After the Broncos' 27-7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers yesterday, however, Bucs lovers griped to a higher power: the Big Guy upstairs.
Why? Not only did Denver crush Tampa Bay even after starting quarterback Trevor Siemian was taken out of the game because of injury (QB-of-the-future Paxton Lynch filled in ably), but the agony was dragged out by a nearly ninety-minute weather delay that struck midway through the fourth quarter, when the outcome of the massacre was no longer in doubt (if it ever was).
Continue to see our twenty favorite tweets from Tampa Bay loyalists cursing the heavens (with a few secular cries of pain thrown in just for fun).
