My prediction for Tebow

[coolguy]

You will have to explain what you are referring to with a ball watcher, I don't get the reference.
Denvers offense is awful. When the Patriots jump out to a big lead, and they become one dimensional, they will be pathetic.

The ball watcher

last but not least

In all honesty why did 32 regress like that this year? Any ideas?

He loves watching balls instead of knocking them down.

I have watched and rewatched every game, and i have paid special attention to McCourty.
He has digressed in one technique/responsibility.
Last season he had a number of Ints from the position of trailing the deep WR. He drew those throws, and almost every time broke them up or picked them. That is 100% an issue of recovery speed. They wouldn't throw it if the WR didnt seem open.
This year those plays have resulted in completions, with Mccourty being 1-2 steps short of making a play on the ball.
Now, I am not downplaying the difference between 6-8 plays where you allow a long completion vs 6-8 picks or breakups, but aside from that technique, pattern and responsiblity his play has been remarkably similar to last season.
If you want to kill the guy for 6-8 plays over the course of a season, be my guest, but I would take the approach that 98% of what he has done has been just like his probowl rookie season, and he has an issue to correct. I do not know what mechanics have slipped, whether injuries affect it, whether he had a lazy offseason and never got in tiptop shape, or what it is, but I'm pretty confident a top all around corner who developed one flaw can correct it in time.

I should have expected the answer would be moronic.

He's suppose to be a captain on defense.

His reaction speed is horrible this year, i can easily see him get beat like ike taylor did last week.

I think the two biggest reasons why he is not doing very well this year is less safety help and the nagging shoulder injury. I think he'll do just fine in the playoffs. With chung healthy and an extra week to get it together expect big things from him!

 

[Haley]

In the game against Pittsburgh, he threw for 316 yards, and a lot of people believed it had biblical meaning, so I'm giving them my prediction which has a biblical meaning as well!

I am going to guess Corinthians 12:7, "A Thorn in the Flesh". Muahaha.

"Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to [a]torment me—to keep me from exalting myself!"

What does being a captain have to do with this discussion?
Thankfully you 'seeing' him get beaten means nothing. I'll stick with what happens on the field instead of what you 'see'.

Okay man.

I want the pats to crush the broncos too, just don't be surprised if ball after ball is caught by Demaryius Thomas.

Don't be surprised if not.

Close.. it's actually from the same book as the 3:16 quote; the book of John, 1:27

"He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie."
