Manning vs Brady: The Final Showdown ......

[richig07]

I just don't think the difference is comparable but you Broncs fans keep saying it was. Guess we'll see this weekend. The biggest thing you guys had going was Brock; he's much better than Peyton.

Pats with Edleman 11-0

We'll see this weekend won't we?

Hey brotha, I'm a Bears fan. lol

I wish I was a Denver fan. Been an excruciating few years to be rooting for the Bears.

Totally a neutral party. Like I said, I like you guys on paper. I think NE wins. However, I also feel Denver is only a couple of right bounces away from winning this game. Brady has struggled when being pressured consistently in the post-season.

Going to Mile High and facing that D is tougher than a lot of Pats fans seem to think.

I've seen this kind of thing posted a few times this week. What I haven't seen is a single over-confident Pats fan. So where is this notion coming from that Pats fans think the Broncs will be a push over?

We should all appreciate this game this weekend. Last time there 2 great QBs will go after it against each other.

Prediction: Pas 27 Denver 17

I have to agree with Malibu.......this isn't Brady vs Manning it's the Patriots against the Broncos. While the quarterbacks play a key role, it's the running backs that chew up the yardage and the receivers who catch the passes. More importantly, it'll be the defenses that either will or will not stop the other team from scoring.

Personally, I don't think Peyton Manning can still throw 50-60 yard passes, but he still has that football brain that lets him pick out the guy at 15 yards who will get 15 more after the catch. The Patriots will have to tackle better than they did during the first game against the Broncos.

The Broncos defense has to come up with something that will stop Edelman from catching 15 passes for 150 yards and they'll have to slow up Gronk and keep him from getting loose down the seam.

I hope that TJ Ward will make a tackle and not throw himself at Gronks knees.

The public consensus is overwhelmingly picking NE. There's also been a few pretty damn confident Pats fans in this thread.

...most of these playoff games are played ''tight''............I just can't see my pats losing twice/in a year to Denver,...plus sprinkle-in that AFC-CH-gm we lost to Denver/2013,.....I see us on a mission/sunday = to win...!

Glad it's about over, to be honest. It's nothing but media drivel... They play against the respective defenses they're aligned against. It's way overblown for my tastes.

Yeah, we have gems like Shaughnessy and Borges, you guys have Kizla and senile Woody Paige in Denver. I don't take any of what those columnists say as representative for either fan-base. Denver hasn't been a happy place for us over the years, I am certainly not confident of a win.

You realize it was written by Dan Shaughnessy, right?

Patriots should win. Brady is better than Manning.

With that being said, I certainly hope the patty cakes suck dead donkey dicks on Sunday.

My brother was at last week's game versus the Steelers. His buddy must not be very smart, because his friend did not know wind chill could go below 32 degrees. His friend went in light weather gear and froze his ass off. My brother is a long time snow skier, so he was dressed for winter.

It's puff piece by Dan Shaughnessy to entertain the locals. An easy story. I'm sure he'll have the Boston vs Denver comparison tomorrow morning.

Here's a better one with a little more meat to it.

Yeah it's always good to see the team actually play a quarter or two. The Patriots do look on paper but it really is far from a given.

Where is the "neither" option?

San Diego

 

[Jakology]

Brady is better than Manning.

Right now? Yes. Career? No.

 

[LionsWhyMe]

It'll only be a good game if the Patriots lose in the AFC Championship game.
