Few things that were said during the game.

-Shows a bunch of old videos of Bill yelling "set the edge". On Willis McGahee's 19 yard run, Rob Ninko (offense's right side) lost the outside leverage and gave up the edge.

-On Tebow's read option TD, Tebow should have read Ninko, who was crashing in, and handed the ball to Willis. Tebow took the ball, Ninko made a high tackle to Tebow's body instead of wrapping his lower body and legs, who spun out of his tackle and scored.

-Interesting. Broncos had 3 rookies on Defense. The back 4 were confused at times in the first series.

-No. 28 of the Broncos can't tackle. Markell something. His whiff on Herno, in the 1st offensive series, let Aaron gain some YAC.

-On the Chad TD, Broncos were in a cover 2. Pats were in a 5 wide set (1RB, 2 WR, 2TE). The Broncos FS (rookie) bit on Welker's quick out pass and the CB (Andre Goodmen) covering Chad did his job and passed him off to the FS. FS however was out of position because he bit on Welker's route.
Let's hope more sexual gratification for Chad leads to more TDs for us.

-Lance Ball ( A rookie I believe who was activated before the Jets game) ran wild on the Broncos 2nd offensive series.

-Andre Carter goes down. :(
Pats switch to a 3-4 Defense. Matt P is seen talking to Mayo and Jones. (Versus decides that the switch to a 34 Defense is the turning point of the game)

-Ron Brace looks good. Takes on the Center, quickly sheds him, get's a piece of the RB along with Dane F and forces a fumble. Ninko recovers the ball.
On the sideline, Dane F goes mad (in a good way). Yells "Yeah Yeah Yeah, I did it" Brace high fives him back. Deadrick and Brace does some weird hand gesture thing.

-The Switch to the 3-4 allows the defense to aggressively attack the option.
Rob ( and presumably Mark Anderson) are told to ignore the pitch and attack the QB. Hit him every time he takes the ball or pitches it.
Because of that, Mark Anderson hits Tebow and forces an early pitch to the RB which leads to a fumble. Mark Anderson recovers.

-Aaron and Tebow are BFFs. Regards Aaron has one of the best TE in the league.

-On that 4th and inches PA play, Wendell's left leg trips Tom Brady. So lucky TFB didn't fall down. On that play, Gronk was doubled (High and low) Aaron was single covered. Rob ran a post corner and Aaron ran a quick out. Low man couldn't decide who to cover-Rob or Aaron. Chose to run w. Rob leaving Aaron wide open.

-Love the TFB spike. Fans are not happy.

-Pats are 101-4 when they win the turnover battle. <---Impressive stat right there.

-Dane F recovers a muff punt. Pats score a FG.

-TFB has a winning record over 30 of the other 31 teams. 1-5 vs Denver. 2-5 after this game.

-Deadrick had a good game. Getting some pressure.

-1st qtr yards. 218 yards to 83. After that, for 2 qtrs, Broncos had 66 yards on offense.

-Front 7 played good gap discipline and a good controlled rush.

-Our D played a lot of Man coverage.

-Pepper tells the whoever the RDE is, to contain Tebow's run lanes to that side while the other LDE comes around and wraps him up.

-Pats O goes on a no huddle attack in the 3rd quarter.

-On that 3rd down and 18 conversion, Devin should have continued running with his WR instead of dropping off.

-Tebow time becomes TFB time.

-In case some of you guys thought "WTF" during TFB's 2 failed QB sneaks, remember ( I can't remember what team it was against and whether it was 09 or the 2010 season) when Brady tried to sneak it in for a td and on 3rd down he handed the ball off to BJGE for a td, Brady was playing situational football and milking the clock down.

-The 4th and 17 sack was freaking hilarious. Nice Hustle play by Ninko.

-TFB says some kind words to Tebow.

Good stuff. I'm disappointed that they didn't mention that Ninko's sack tied the longest in NFL history.

The Vikings game in 2010. Yup.

Remember this series?


New England Patriots at 11:05
1-10-NE 8 (11:05) 33-K.Faulk right tackle to NE 9 for 1 yard
[long, methodical march down the field in which each team uses two timeouts]
1-9-BUF 9 (4:09) 42-B.Green-Ellis left end to BUF 7 for 2 yards
Timeout #3 by BUF at 04:02.
2-7-BUF 7 (4:02) 42-B.Green-Ellis up the middle to BUF 3 for 4 yards
3-3-BUF 3 (3:26) 42-B.Green-Ellis left tackle to BUF 1 for 2 yards (91-Sp.Johnson, 92-R.Denney). PENALTY on BUF-99-M.Stroud, Defensive Holding, 2 yards, enforced at BUF 3 - No Play.
1-1-BUF 1 (3:18) 16-M.Cassel up the middle to BUF 1 for no gain
2-1-BUF 1 (2:42) 16-M.Cassel up the middle to BUF 1 for no gain

Two-Minute Warning
3-1-BUF 1 (2:00) NE 50-Vrabel eligible. 42-B.Green-Ellis left guard for 1 yard, TOUCHDOWN. NE 42-Green-Ellis 4th straight game with a TD.
3-S.Gostkowski extra point is GOOD, Center-66-L.Paxton, Holder-6-C.Hanson. NE 19 play scoring drive ties franchise record (9/15/02 at NYJ).
BUF 3 NE 20 Plays: 19 Possession: 9:08

Or, as CHFF put it on the two plays I highlighted above:

1st and goal (Bills 1) – Cassel sneak for no gain
2nd and goal (Bills 1) – Cassel not-so-sneak for no gain

Great stuff, Ninja--as always buddy.

Enjoy your holidays.
 
I thought it was obvious they were milking the clock on the sneaks.
 
Oooh, I have to DVR that!

In the meantime, good moment in this week's Sound Fx (1:51-1:56). Denver OL coach to the OL on the bench early in the game (the dabacle part):

"He's not gonna let you guys keep kicking their ass all day long, so he's gonna do something different".
