The new look Colorado Rapids have struggled mightily. After two tough losses it’s time to wonder if even with the new additions the Pids risk missing out on the postseason in 2025.

What would missing the playoffs mean for Colorado and a head coach in Chris Armas, who’s contract is up after the season?

How have the new guys looked so far now that we’ve seen Paxten Aaronson, Rob Holding, Noah Cobb and Rafael Santos?

How much of a threat are San Jose, Houston, RSL and FC Dallas to making the 9th seed?

All that and more as Yahir Vazquez and Duane Brown come live to you from the DNVR Bar.
