The Denver Broncos got back to their winning ways with a thrilling comeback victory over the Chicago Bears.

We'll admit, we were a little scared as the Bears looked like they could do no wrong and the Broncos' defense early was crumbling under the pressure. Another loss for the Broncos and there would've been some extremely hot seats in the building.

However, all is right in the world as Sean Payton and Russell Wilson found a way to win, spelling less doom and gloom for the season as a whole. While this victory was against the winless Bears, it'll help overall morale getting the victory.

Immediately after the game, former RB Phillip Lindsay took a shot at the Broncos with a tweet, immediately causing a firestorm across social media.

Lindsay, in his tweet, highlighted, "Where are the receivers!! All that money out there to be no-shows?" Seemingly taking a shot at the Broncos receivers which include rising star Jerry Jeudy.

The talented RB is beloved in Denver as he quickly rose to fame by going undrafted and then turning that into a wildly successful season with the Broncos. Lindsay has jumped around the league since his dominant start to his career and just hasn't found much traction. Nevertheless, despite it being only one season, Lindsay is a legend in the Broncos fanbase.

Lindsay is a Denver native and played college football at CU Boulder, making his story that much more impressive when the Broncos took a chance on him after going undrafted.

Jeudy, after finishing the day with three catches for 52 yards, had some choice words with Lindsay, he wasn't going to sit back and be attacked after such a fun win from the organization.

The talented receiver was clearly upset, and he let the world know it. We were hoping that some of that fire would translate on the football field but there's always next week. For now, we're just going to enjoy the victory.
