inkman Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 He choked in Tennesee and came up short most of his NFL career. The Super Bowl was a perfect storm culminating with one of weakest opponents ever. I'd still rather be a colts, pats or broncos fan. At least they have enjoyed it a little.

Robviously Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) He choked in Tennesee and came up short most of his NFL career. The Super Bowl was a perfect storm culminating with one of weakest opponents ever. He beat Tom Brady in the AFC Championship to get to that Super Bowl -- and it was a pretty big comeback. EDIT: I just checked. They were down 21-3. The comeback was the largest ever in an NFL conference championship game.

Andrew Amerk Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Ok I'll be happy with a 4TD game, that ends with us ahead on the scoreboard, that's fair, because I don't think we see another Peyton in this generation. It's shiny but made in China cause I got it at Wal mart Was Peyton Manning made in China? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) He choked in Tennesee and came up short most of his NFL career. The Super Bowl was a perfect storm culminating with one of weakest opponents ever. I didn't follow college back then, but I don't put any stock into it anyway. As far as the pros go, Brady has been choking in big moments and the playoffs ever since they built the team around him. Did he suddenly forget how to be clutch and handle pressure? My point is I think it's exceedingly difficult to separate individual "choking" from broader team effects. For example, Manning has historically struggled against the Chargers in the regular season, it was just a bad matchup for the Colts. Yet the playoffs hit and suddenly it's a huge choke job. I don't buy it. Edited September 8, 2013 by TrueBluePhD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy it. Should fans of a football team that lost four straight Super Bowls ever use the word "choking" in a derogatory manor against another team or player? Especially when that player has a Super Bowl ring? Seems a bit foolish. Good Luck to the Buffalo Bills today. A win maybe a little too much to ask for. I am hoping to see a good game plan, good coaching decisions/time management and the elimination of the killer penalties at the worst possible times. This would give me hope that we are entering a "new era" in Bills history and not just a different chapter in the same old book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a team's players not getting it done now precludes fans from pointing out another team/player didn't get it done? Awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the D looks a bit better, but no way we are winning this game Amendola limping off. Our D has looked good but it won't hold. The Patriots will kill us in the second half if our offense doesn't do something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care how many Super Bowls we didn't win and/or didn't get to, I will still grind 18-1 into the faces of every Patriots fan I meet. First of many NFL touchdowns for the rookies: EJ Manuel to Robert Woods. Edited September 8, 2013 by IKnowPhysics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
