90.1 QB rating. 2 TDs. No INTs. Just the facts. Peyton played a good game.

Did you see his list of drives? It was not very good.

The waiting is killing me. Hard to time my buzz correctly..

Pace. MY GOD MAN, PACE YOURSELF!

From what I have seen this season I think the Denver D can somewhat contain Cam, force some fumbles, make him get rid of the ball early.. I don't think the word blowout will be used at the end of the game today

Listing drive stats doesn't tell me shit. You have to watch the game with your eyes. Watching the game, you could see that Peyton was prepared, and played about as well as he could have.

5.8 yards per attempt, less than 200 yards a game in the playoffs.
Cam is doing 9.9 yards per attempt and less than 250 yards a game in the playoffs.

The difference between Cam and Peyton is far and away the biggest difference between the two teams.

@kramer1 tinfoil hat mode: The NFL won't allow this to be a blowout. Too much money on the line.

Well yeah. Nobody is trying to say Peyton is a great QB anymore. But to say he didn't play well against the Patriots is a stretch.

Yeah, ummmm, no.

It's not a stretch at all, he was meh against the Patriots.

Fuck this, I'm going to a bar ....

Numbers don't lie: Line is too high

@NEPatsfan What I'm saying is people were expecting the Pats' defense to overwhelm the bad Broncos' offense. Considering Petyon's standards that we're holding him to this season(Game manager at best), he played well considering. I'm not trying to argue it was a great game by him at all. It was about as good as he could play.

For the most part the Patriots def did "overwhelm" him. He lead 8 of his 14 game drives for less than 10 yards, with 5 of those being for 0 or negative yards. One of his TDs was from 16 yards. He had one good drive of the game, the opening one, then didn't really do much after that.

No style points in football. Try figure skating.

Who said anything about style? We were talking about whether he actually did much, which he didn't. And he needs to do the same tonight, not much, just don't fk up.

There's about a 50-1 bronco to panther fan ratio there

I'M READY FOR SOME FUCKING FOOTBALL!!!!!!!

Older established fan base, along with proximity to their home market.

I've got three boxes from a $10k grid and one box from a $1k grid. The $10k grid pays $5k for the final score and spits $5k across every score change.

I also laid some cash on a teaser - Broncos +12 and under 51.

Broncos +12? WTF?

Afternoon, Slinky.

Still a couple hours out. TV is off, don't need to listen to a bunch of experts say how the game will go...
