Talk about high expectations. The Broncos won yesterday's game against the Chiefs to go 2-0 in the young NFL season, yet the way they did it -- eking out a last-minute 24-17 victory after nearly giving up a big lead, just like in last week's season opener against the Colts -- inspired Broncos lovers and haters alike to express their frustration on Twitter. Too critical too soon? Decide after counting down the following twenty photo-illustrated tweets, complete with a bonus Vine.

This game was bad for the Broncos no matter what happens. Chiefs will think they can compete, San Diego knows they can. Raiders still suck

I love watching the @Broncos blow a half-time lead by letting every 3 and anything convert to a first down. Good job, guys. Really helping.
