Playoff Football

If Peyton retires, I definitely think Dalton can catch and surpass his record of one and downs in the playoffs. Peyton has 9. Dalton has 4 and is still young.

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.

Ah, the Joey Votto injury. He's done.

Flacco was on a great stretch in the playoffs. I was ready to give him as due as a clutch QB, but that last INT was a headscratcher. It was 2nd and 5 deep in NE territory with close to 2 mins left. there are times to gamble, but that wasn't one of them. that was inexcusable imo. that doesn't take entirely away from his great playoff run, but it does put a little dent in it for me.

Dalton has limitations Flacco doesn't as far as arm talent. i don't think he has Flacco's celing for topnotch QB play, but he can get better imo

That definetley was a piss poor call.........I thought wtf myself............>shakes head<

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

every year he's wondering if this is the last year.

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

The one, and only, Brock Osweiler...............

The one, and only, Brock Osweiler...............

so basically, when Peyton is done, lose 15 games and draft a #1 like the Colts did.
genius.
of course, that's what we did to get Palmer, and it didn't work for long. our organization was still in need of a deep overhaul. and was... is probably the wrong word, but the mind control freaks will come at me if I say otherwise.

We're on the brink of blowing it up. Green's coming due along with both tackles. Dalton can be easily gotten away from after 2015. We could easily start over after 2015. All we need is a losing season to make it happen.

Wow! The entire Broncos coaching staff has been let go..... This really looks like the end of Peyton Manning.

It also looks like a rebuild of the Broncos. That game in Denver next year just got a lot easier.

 

[cincygrad]

Teams that we play next year with a new qb or new coach:

Cleveland X2 -- Maybe Manziel?
St. Louis -- Bradford if healthy? Someone else?
Houston -- Mallett? Someone else?
Denver -- New coach/new qb possibly?
Oakland -- New coach? Or does Sparano get it.
San Francisco -- New coach..... QB is a question mark.
Buffalo -- New coach and new QB.

8 games featuring a team in rebuild..... The schedule will be easier than advertised. I think it's going to be very difficult to completely tank. Marvin will get a new deal, Andy will be here for more years, AJ will get franchised.

I'm going to start drinking now.

So who wants a coach who loses to the Bengals on national tv?

 

[flamingrey]

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

Peyton is the same guy who had a 4th surgery on his neck and nobody knew about it for months. His people are pretty tight-lipped.

l

Can you imagine a coach that lost to the Bengals in the playoffs? That would be very detrimental to a resume.

 

[DanBengalfan]

lol

Well, we know the leak wasn't Peyton..... And that either puts the leak on the coaching staff, training staff, or Peyton's inner circle.

 

[cincygrad]

Andrew Luck looked a little like Andrew Dalton out there today..... I consider it to be a blessing that we didn't have to go to New England this postseason.

 

[DanBengalfan]

huh? who doesn't want to have lobster and chowder?

 

[alf8478]

Both Luck and Wilson both played like Dalton yesterday, but neither will will get any blame. Wilson because he won, and Luck because he's the new golden boy.
Marvin and Andy as shitty as they are at least actually won a game against the Patriots

That's some funny stuff right there.

 

[DanBengalfan]

The Patriots exposed the entire NFL in one game.
I mean, is the talent pool that thin?

or at least just the Colts. I mean really, how did they even get in the playoffs. Josh Cribbs loses it because it hits him in the face-shield. why is he even wearing a face-sheild? why is he even still in the NFL? Their starting RB was Boom Herron. HE COULDN'T EVEN MAKE OUR TEAM!!! WTF?!?!?!
