Maybe you should actually watch a Bronco game or two before you say crap like this. Peyton has gotten one roughing the passer call all season. He has had players dive at his legs especially since his ankles got hurt against Jacksonville yet not a single call on any of the shots to his legs.

Yes I understand there are bad calls that go against both teams throughout a game but there does seem to be more that go certain teams ways compared to others. I would think this would be pretty obvious. They actually every season do a "luck" statistic of teams that had calls go their way more often than not and usually the Patriots are top 5 every season. Not sure where Baltimore falls in that but will have to see if they have it up yet this season.

The only one I remember that I'm sure you're referring to is the hit he took from Liuget at the end of the first SD game. However the replay showed Liuget hit him well above the knee and the NFL even confirmed that the non-call was correct. What other "dives at his legs" are you referring to?

Boltfan72 I was somewhat referencing that one but in a way that Peyton doesn't get the calls as Tgann was trying to suggest. If he got even the close calls then he would have gotten that one but I am glad he didn't because it was a legal hit. I'm glad Liuget did not get fined for that. The NFL seems to fine even the plays they shouldn't these days so glad they didn't on that one.

Now as to other plays that I would be talking about would be there were about 3 during the Jacksonville game. A couple of those looked very iffy where they looked like they could have easily aimed for his midsection but instead chose to dive at his legs. That is where his ankle problems started was from about 3 hits in that game.

There was also one during the Indy game that was a little lower than some of us Bronco fans would have liked. Those are the only ones that I can think of.

But like I said I was more commenting towards the idea that someone thought Peyton get's all the calls when I honestly think he has only gotten one roughing the passer penalty all year. Now given he has been hit a lot less than most quarterbacks in the league but you would think if that was the case then they would be calling it quite often. He is a tall quarterback so he doesn't usually get hit in the helmet so about the only calls he can get are if they hit him late, slam him too hard (still not a fan of this penalty), or dive at his legs. So far they have gotten one late hit.

That's football my friend. You are WAY too caught up in what TV is telling you to think.

That had nothing to do with tv. I simply saw the video posted on here and commented... That's it
