too soon for an NFL thread?

I realize John Fox deserves some of the blame for the Broncos loss yesterday, but Peyton Manning deserves the bulk of it. He threw 2 INT's, 1 a pick 6. The other led to the game winning FG. He also had a fumble lost. The media needs to stop with their love for this guy. He's 9-11 in the postseason for his career & 5 of those losses came when his team had home field advantage. Peyton Manning isn't a top 5 QB of all time because of his play in the clutch. People have talked about how great a QB Roger Stauback was & they were right, he was outstanding, but Terry Bradshaw was as clutch as they come & has never gotten the credit he deserves.

In fairness to Peyton that pick 6 should have been caught, that one is on the receiver. I don't think he's to blame for this loss.

I thought the fumble was a bad call (tuck rule), but that's neither here nor there.

Without Fox blowing the end of regulation, the OT interception doesn't even happen though.

I've come to the conclusion I have no idea what the tuck rule is. I don't think anybody does, the officials just flip a coin or guess.

Yeah, kinda seems that way. Though in the Denver/Baltimore game I'm not sure that the ref even knew how to use the replay booth. Or maybe the replay booth was frozen solid.

I thought they blew a couple of the reviews in that game.

The tuck rule shouldn't exist & hopefully they'll get rid of it this offseason. I thought it was a fumble.

I can't blame Fox for a bonehead decision by the DB. Fox can't be on the field.

As for not going for it with 31 seconds left, Fox said he was in shock after the TD which is understandable. They should have thrown at least one pass to see what happens.

The bottom line is the Broncos got 2 TD's from special teams & Manning had three turnovers. Joe Flacco outplayed Manning & the Ravens won the game.

I agree that it's a shit rule, but it is the rule.

And if a coach is in shock, that's all the more reason to fire his dumb ass. A coach shouldn't be in shock while the game is still going on and while you've still got a chance to win the game.

Did you here John Elway defending Fox today? LOL

Former Broncos Offensive Coordinator Mike McCoy is the new Head Coach of the San Diego Chargers. Many so calleld experts like McCoy. What he did with Tebow last year could be considered a minor miracle I guess.

Hey, that is freaking neat but I couldn't think of a place to post it.

So Chip Kelly to the Eagles? I'm so glad the Cowboys hired the guy that Chip Kelly's team so regularly embarassed.

Yeah, he didn't see it coming. That sucks.

I can't prove it, but I think that's a hate crime?

 

[sbb122]

Jones with another nice snag.

Just a head's up to the 9ers - I think they might try and pass it to Julio Jones?
