Actually, I remember Al Michaels using the phrase "wobble ball" a few times a couple weeks ago.

Well, Michaels is about 70. Wobbly balls come with the territory.

^ I'll probably walk wobbly at 70.

Are not you seventy already? You bailed on your team after 30+ years of fandom! Unbelievable.

There is no living Cowboy fan over 70. The depression kills them all between 50 and 55...

Trolls...

That would be like during the Cold War telling a Russian-American he was not a good Russian for not also supporting the communists.

I have always supported an organized, well-run team - love the Cowboys when they were - follow the Patriots for being the latest role model of a sports organization. Meanwhile, Jerry Jones and Woody Johnson are buddies in that perverted company of owners that let their fans down while making money.

Sadly, there is one that is 72 worth $4B that needs to go to the nutfarm in Terrill, Texas (not named after Mr. Owens, although ironic)

How about the int he threw against Miami while sitting on his ass a few years ago?

You mean 10 years ago?

Yup, I know, you didn't have to tell me . But bandwagoning is looked down on, these days.

When was it looked up to?

jetsfan25678,

That 'quote' from me went nowhere when I clicked it. No surprise - I NEVER said that.

I'm OK with whatever team you follow and even going behind enemy lines as a fan.

But don't question my loyalty with this bandwagoning nonsense. Many couples split well before 17 years of messing around....actually more, but this is about a team not wedding vows!

In the past I defended you posting as a Jets fan - that was not trolling. But posting phony quotes is absolutely trolling and very disappointing. If you can't rise above this, expect me and others to put you on ignore.

I consider you a bandwagoner, and I'm not trolling when I say that. If you don't like me calling you out , put me on ignore.

We clearly have a different definition of bandwagoning, and calm down this is a message board

I won't do it again, since you're clearly upset.

I only talk about teams - not about the members or getting personal. You are late to question why I follow a team...everyone else moved on from that several weeks ago. If you are also moving on, good call.

You're taking this too serious I was joking, when I changed your post!

That highlights they just showed of Peyton Manning. It was like an end over end punt. His arm is G-O-N-E, GONE

Well I hope you enjoyed the spotlight while you had it Giardi. The Papa Johns secret police are going to leave a bloody Bronco head in your bed tonight with a note saying "Resign or else."

I still maintain that the Broncos didn't have this new emphasis on the running game because they want balance, but they know they cannot rely on Manning to carry the team game in and game out. I think teams will figure out they can start to load up and stop the run and Manning's short passing and allowing him to throw deep. I think the Broncos could be in trouble if they have to rely on Manning to air it out.

manning can still make all the throws. you simply can't stuff 7 or 8 in the box against them on every down.

I agree, but he is slowing down a lot this year. I'm wondering if this is it for him. Or maybe one more season.

He'll play until he gets all the records.

I think he'll struggle a bit once the weather turns bad. Right now, the broncos would most likely face andrew luck and the colts in the divisional - that would be a handful for the broncos.

Osweiler is probably better than half the QBs starting in the NFL now.

Broncos still should have a potent offense in the post-Manning era.
