Your point is still valid. AJ never makes that catch.[/QUOTE]

AJ Green would still be juggling that catch... unless Dalton threw it, then it would be an INT

When will AJ ever be in a division round game?

Probably for Indianapolis a couple years from now

That AJ pout would turn into the world's largest grin when he lines up with Andrew Luck.

I'm not questioning his toughness, but he seemed reluctant to play injured this year. I think he's saving himself for FA

Manning's left 200 yds on the field in missed throws

Is it just me, or are the Broncos panicking? Third and five or less has almost always been 25-30 yards downfield when a nice safe pass would bring a new set of downs.

Von Miller has been erased so far.........

 

[alf8478]

if the Broncos lose this game, Manning should retire, Fox should get canned, and they should break the team up.

 

[bengaldoug]

So far, Luck is the one playing within himself, and under control......

Suddenly, our loss to the Colts doesn't look so bad. Or is it, suddenly our win over the Broncos doesn't look so good?

 

[bengaldoug]

Peyton looked, dare I say, Dalton-esque.

right.

That's not the first time that Peyton has looked shaky in the postseason -- But this year I think he has a good excuse. Something has been wrong with him for the entire second half of the season. It seems like when he throws in complete rhythm he can still get something on the ball. If anything breaks down and he needs to throw off his back foot or across the field the pass looks horrible. I wonder if he has an injury or if his physical skills have just completely deteriorated.

And now we get the news:

Report: Peyton Manning has a torn right quadriceps | ProFootballTalk

I imagine this contributed to those ducks he threw in Cincinnati on MNF. Particularly Dre's pick when Peyton through it off his damaged back leg.

How stupid...they were going into the playoffs...they should have sat him and let him get 100%...

Dumb.

 

[DanBengalfan]

I don't even know who Denver's backup QB even is, lol.

If you and your team were covering up an injury that severe, don't leak it to the media the day after a playoff loss.

Still,that's unbelievable Manning was able to play with that type of injury. he's as tough as any QB to ever play the game

Makes me think it wasn't going to heal in time for the postseason -- Maybe he figured he'd try to play through it and work through it because it wasn't getting better. Who knows.

I think that's just the team or Peyton's people protecting his legacy. That was a bad performance yesterday.
