And new England wins on a dumb ass play by the Broncos. :L

Denver was in the drivers seat and pissed it away. Think that makes Peyton 2 and 10 in games below 30 degrees? May have cost me lots of money in my pickem league unless San Fran beats Washington tomorrow night

Knowshon Moreno did work for me tonight

36 carries for 200+ for a guy about 75% while Manning threw for 150, yeah it was windy and cold but your running back gives that performance and as the QB you gotta win that game.

Denver didn't deserve to win that game after jumping out to a 24-0 lead and losing it.

Yep and Brady and Edelman schooled Manning and Welker in the 2nd half

Just finished watching Sportscenter, they were pointing out how for whatever reason Brady started to thrive throwing into the wind, and Manning obviously struggled.
Oh Welker, he can't be happy tonight

incidently caught the Cowboy highlights, Congrats

For some reason, I expect JD to do something completely out of the ballpark, like he did with fielder. I'm gonna suggest something that hasn't been suggested yet (I don't think?) just for the sake of new conversation, so give me your opinions.

What if we signed Choo and Granderson? Then we could package Moreland, Leonys, and some prospects for someone like wieters or even a david price, if they take it of course.

I posted one earlier that looked like this.

LF Choo
SS Andrus
3b Beltre
1b/dh Fielder
RF Rios
1b/dh Moreland
2b Profar
C Soto
CF Martin

this might be the batting order but god it seems so weak at the bottom. what pitching staff would be afraid of those bottom 4?

Fair point, but
I think the idea is one of the four, if not more will hit better
Profar and Soto will get more consistent PA's, maybe MM finally improves

I see an large swath of an Ice Storm is moving across Texas, I've been driving in those types of conditions for years, my advice to fellow posters....do not drive if you don't have to.
It gets nearly impossible to navigate, and we do a lot of sanding and salting before and sometimes during

Stay safe

...and large SUV's with 4 wheel drive are worthless in ice. Usually during storms like these, we'll see the the majority of cars that have slid off the road, are indeed the SUV's/Trucks.

Snow, they are helpful...ice NO.
stay home.

That's assuming a lot. They assumed Murphy would improve with more AB's and look what we got

Martin had a decent year but got worn down with his first long year of MLB. I think he'll be much improved this year, and there's every reason to expect this.

As far as Murphy is concerned, he consistently got about 475 AB for the last 6 years. So he wasn't over exposed this season, but rather just had a bad one.

If we aren't "assuming" Profar is going to improve this year then he should be dealt immediately before anyone else picks up on he's a bust.

Martin's problem is he needs to be more selective. It is almost like he has made his mind up to swing no matter what.
