i can understand the Bradyhaters. i couldn't stand Elway and his horse-smile. couldn't deny his talent tho.



No one can really deny he's one of the greatest to ever play. And there are a LOT of Elway haters out there.

And if people want to hate Brady, it's just because he IS that good. There are plenty who can't stand Manning (myself included) or Favre or Montana, Marino, etc.

Too bad. ;)

This is kind of bass-akwards, but here in the Bay area we get to see the Colts/Patriots game because the Raiders could not sell out their game in Oakland, yet again. I've always hated the "sell out or blackout" rule till now, but everyone I talk to is kind of glad this time.

He led the Broncos to the Superbowl three times in the late 80's when he didn't have much of a team around him. IMO, that says quite a bit about exactly how good he was.

Die hard Silver and Black fan but I'm totally glad that they didn't sell out this week. :thu:

Yup. He got them there pretty much on his own back then. And then Reeves barely let him out of his cage and they got beat all 3 times. Sammy winder 3 times up the middle and then punt. :mad:

When he finally had a good coach and a damn good team around him, he got the 2 wins.

Damn RSB. How do you actually say stuff like this with Mannings cock so far down your throat?
:D
:D:D:D


all you Pats haters are gonna turn me into a Pats fan.


And I'll take that bet. How much?




So, RSB chose a team and was wrong...What are the odds? (You want a safe bet? There's one :D)


What's even better is that RSB's claims about the NE running game are outright BS. Before today's game, Indy was rushing for only 4.5 yards more per game (140.3 vs. 135.8), Indy's #5 in the NFL, NE #8. Indy's #10 with 4.4 yd/rush, NE is #13 with 4.2. Indy's #1 in the NFL with 12 TDs, only four more than NE, who are #3 with 8.

Now, on the passing side, NE is #1 in the NFL, Indy is #6 (303.8 v. 258.7), in yd/attempt NE is blowing everyone away (9.06 v. 7.87, NE v. Indy), and in terms of TDs it's no contest, NE has 30, Indy has 13...More than 2 times as many.


NE isn't throwing more TDs because they can't score on the ground (only two teams in the league have scored more on the ground than they have), they're throwing more TDs because they're scoring almost 30% more than the #2 offense.
