too soon for an NFL thread?

You get a manager or wrestler who's great on the mic to generate "heat" from the crowd by disparaging the hosting city/fans. It's so obvious, but they continue to do it because it works so well.

Wait, so it isn't just the wrestling that's fake???

LOL.


Denver... order your rings.

This team is ridiculous. I would love to see Peyton win a couple more Super Bowls because, in my opinion, he's the best of all-time at his position.

I hope something similar to what happened last year happens again. I can't stand the Mannings. First Family of the NFL my ass. One thing to remember about Peyton Manning, he can't throw the ball on the move. He's never been good at it. He cost the Broncos a chance at going to the Super Bowl last season because of it. All the pieces are in place for Denver this year. They don't even have Miller back yet. If they can't win it this year I don't know if they ever will with Manning as their QB. The only reason Peyton Manning has a Super Bowl ring is because Rex Grossman was the Bears QB.

Now that's amazing !!!

You don't generally need to be able to throw on the run when you're as good from the pocket he is. Last time I checked that Brady guy was doing OK for himself even if it's a bit slow of a start this year and he makes Hal Gill look mobile.

I still find it hard to blame Peyton for the AFC Championship too. John Fox is a dumb ass coach.

Damned Vikings cost me my survivor pool.

I said all of last year that the Falcons were a paper tiger so their start is no surprise to me.

Fox blew it by not trying to score at the end of the 4th quarter, but Manning threw the PICK that ultimately cost his team the game.

That's my point. Fox is a moron. Without him being a moron the game probably doesn't even get to the point where Manning can screw up.

The bottom line is Manning screwed up. The only Super Bowl ring he has was because the other team didn't have an NFL calibre QB on their roster. Come playoff time Manning usually fails to get the job done. He couldn't even beat a Norv Turner led Chargers team in the Playoffs. Sorry, but I won't believe in this Denver team until they make the Super Bowl. Plenty of extremely talented teams have failed to do just that. They don't play these games on paper. At the start of the year the 49ers were supposed to be the team to beat. Now they're a mess.

That's a little harsh. How about the DB that mis-judged Flacco's pass by a couple acres?

The point being that there were so many contributing factors to that loss. To say they lost because of Manning isn't fair or realistic. He threw the interception but Denver f-d up so many times leading up to that play that it shouldn't have mattered.

 

[IPostedWhat]

Looks like I can go ahead and change the year on this one.

As a Chargers fan I've seen Manning choke to many times. He could never beat them in the postseason. To me that speaks volulmes. Last year Denver had that game in the bag & found a way to choke it away. I realize it's not all Mannings fault, but at the end of the day his pick cost his team the game.

Aaaahhhh. I mean, I'm sure Green Bay is lovely in the summer. I just don't want to spend my winter there... with all that stinky cheese (Boooo!) and all those rednecks (BOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!).

Hahaha.

Pretty good "pick um" thread on the NFL board where you can win some good vCash.

Hearing that the Jags are offering a free beer with a ticket - Anything to distract from the product on the field.

If the Chargers only win one more game this year I want it to be this Sunday!!

Sweet shot

Rough start for Luck: One interception (fortunately called back because Jax lined up offsides) & one should-have-been interception in Indy's 1st possession.

Amazing run by lynch. Memories of beastmode in playoffs v the saints a few years back
