The Official Patriots vs Bronco's game thread

Spikes being active is a huge boon for the rush defense.

The Broncos are going to have issues throwing down field tonight.

father time would get lit up

62 posts an hour before kick off. I guess we're psyched. Here's to the game not ending on a bs call. :eat3:

This hour to kickoff can't come soon enough!

According to Weather.com, it will feel like 5 degrees when the game begins, and it will feel like 3 degrees when the game ends. Those are lousy ways to feel.

Gostkowski has distance from 55.

Not clear if these includes accuracy.

I think there will be a lot of 4th downs today vs FGs.

My weekly "I hate bob costas" post.

The wind gusts could be up to 45 MPH. Forget Brady/Manning Bowl. This could be Ridley/Moreno Bowl.

Everybody that resembles an RB is active. Makes sense, considering the weather.

Pioli has some interesting speculation on why the Patriots allowed Welker to walk. I didn't realise it was only 1 million a year difference. for 2 years . Damn both sides for not getting it done if that is truly what motivated Welker for leaving!!

Here is what Mike Reiss tweeted on the subject:

Both kickers have concluded their warmups. Seems like kicking to the open/lighthouse end of stadium is the tricky one tonight.

Dungy is mad at Pioli...lol. Pioli was talking about the Broncos illegal pick plays!!! Dungy didn't like that all.

I'm glad he has quiet strength to see him through these trying times

Maybe the officials will gift one to the Pats tonight by calling some pick plays late in the game.

Against their darling Manning? I wouldn't bet on it. I hate him..

Per a few sources, Vereen, Blount and Slater fielding kicks in warm ups.

This hour is going by so slowly !

These are by far some of the stupidest fans in all of sports:

Look for the refs to make many calls against Denver tonight.

Who wins the coin toss tonight is going to be a key to the game.

This nbc pre-game is horriable wish NFL network did it.
