I've always said the key guy in the Brady Manning rivalry is Eddie George.

Since you mentioned Eddie George and I haven't thought about him in a long time I figured I'd Google him to see what he's up to. Somehow he's in a Broadway production of Chicago???

Eddie George relishing run on Broadway

We WON the toss and elected to receive? Did I hear that right?

what happened with the toss??

Ugh I hate recieveing, crowd is amped already. Would have liked to stiffle Broncos first.

Simms and Nance on top of it, noting how unusual it is for Pats not to defer.

Oh wait, they didn't say anything.

I'm not guaranteeing posting silence, but I'm going to try to take this whole game in.

May the lord have mercy on this thread should the Patriots not play well...

Wonder why they decided to take the ball ? This goes against the norm !

receiving? bill, don't get cute..

Watching the game on mute is heaven. You do not need to hear the announcers to see what is going on in the game. Turn the mute off when the referee explains a call. All you need! (-;

Just had a Bills fan join us at the bar. He is ranting about how much he respects Brady and how he hates his fan base for how much they pretend like Brady isn't really that good. Refreshing to meet a good Bills fan. Surprised he's not drunk already.

Well that's unusual.

Don't think Manning can play from behind? Weather getting worse later maybe?

Couple of reasons why they might have chose to receive.

Breaks a very long streak of deferring

Didn't defer. Hmmmm. Maybe someone on D has to take a dump.

Take the ball first and march down the Felix and get the lead.

We didn't defer? Huh?

That's unusual they're receiving. Maybe they want to get an early lead and encourage Manning to throw.

we won the toss. and choose to receive. think teams wants to come up and put points up and make broncos pass and neutralize the run

wonder how sun plays into all of this ?
