Hoss Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I see no way Denver goes anywhere. These receivers can't catch anything. This is frustrating to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Should've started Osweiller. Peyton looks like e keeps calling an audible right into what Pitt wantsNah, this team wasn't going anywhere with Osweiler. Their only hope was Manning putting it together for a few games. Doesn't look like it'll happen, but Osweiler was a worse option. Â Super Bowl winner Mike Tomlin elects to punt rather than try a 52 yard FG in Denver . Good lord.

WildCard Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Have you seen the wind this game? It's pushing the ball 5 yards sideways every time, it's incredible really.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Don't underestimate Denver's defense. I'm not, I'm underestimating their offense. Â Unless Manning can find some arm strength and his recievers start catching, then they will be in trouble. Â Being at home helps if they win, but watching this game was not a vote of confidence for either team really.

But man there's nothing there. Then of course you're betting on Gary Kubiak over Belichick. Denver's defense gives them a chance, though.

I will say, the status of NE's LBs will loom large. If Collins, Hightower and Mayo and all out or playing at 70%... Â Denver's defense could pull a 2000 Ravens and drag the offense to victory, but it's just so hard to bet on it in today's NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Even if Denver makes it to the SB, Carolina/Arizona will murder them  There is the fact that Brady's line blows, as was on full display against the Fish in week 17.

If Miami can do that to NE, them Denver can make Brady's life very difficult I think either NFC team should be clear favorites, regardless of the AFC team.

MattPie Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) If your special teams and defense allows a team to march down the field and score why does a team deserve a shot on offense? Kickoff, cover on special teams and have your defense hold for a 3 and out and you get the ball at about midfield. The college system is horrible and not a reflection of the game, like the NHL's 3 on 3 is not representative of the game as a whole. Â The Packers had a chance to win the game. The had a choice to go for 2 pts with no time on the clock. They decided to go for the single extra point. If Mike McCarthy would have showed some balls the Packers might be alive in the playoffs today. It was that decision that ended up costing the Packers the game, not a coin flip. Â Â Â I would argue that unless you're talking about a drive at the end of a half and perfect time management, the other team getting a shot at equalizing the score is more in line with the rest of the game than one team getting the ball on a coin flip and being able to end the game. Â I'll agree that NFL coaches can be too conservative, but kicking an extra point at the end of regulation is the right call. One number I saw was 2-point conversations are successful around 47% of the time. So it's close to the 50% chance of winning the flip (and the advantage that still gives, apparently). I like this to an extent. The current system is fine with me, but I wouldn't mind a system that progresses as the OT goes. Â Each team gets one possession. You can kick a FG or go for a TD and kick an extra point on the first possession. On the second possession it's the same but now you have to go for two. On the third possession it's TD or bust and you must go for two. Â I think you may have that the wrong way around, but I'm not sure. I'd say TDs first with extra point an option, then TDs with only 2-point, and then FGs OK. In your system, if you get to the third possession, the game could go forever with teams not being able to score a TD. Â Hey guys and gals, Â It's January 17, 2016. Â Time for a Buffalo Bills 2016 thread? Â I think this thread usually hangs around until after the Superbowl, as in 2015 season not calendar year. True, the football season bleeds into 2016, but the Bills' season never does. Edited January 19, 2016 by MattPie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Short memory, MattPie. Â The last time the Bills played in January was 16 days ago. Â (I knew what you meant.) Â GR this morning talking about the possibility of trading for Tennessee's first overall pick. Â Nope. Â I might consider trading down though.

That Aud Smell Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 No way do I want any piece of that first overall pick. Â Nope. Â Also: I suggest we wait until after the Super Bowl to start a 2016 thread. If only to avoid yet another reminder that the team's not in the playoffs. Like, ever.
