SNF - Young horses @ donkeys

[Foxypats]

I really wish we had been able.to get E Sanders last year

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

I want the Broncos O line...

 

[patsinthesnow]

This OL makes me sick

 

[Foxypats]

How come our rb's never have those huge openings to run through ?

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Can I try out for the parts o line??

And this game is about to be over.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Why does Denver's field look god awful?

 

[SVN]

Cant compare this oline vs ours right now . Sure they are btter but they are @home, altitude, vs a different front than miami. They folded like a tent vs a decent pass rush vs seattle.

 

[Froob]

God damn it. Wow that would have been amazing.

 

[SVN]

d%#*!@t. Shouldve been picked..

 

[Mix]

Maybe you should try running the ball from the three horseface.

Manning almost intercepted twice on that drive. Hit the Colts on the hands twice.

 

[sb1]

Manning really wants that 1st TD pass of the year.

That 3rd down throw should have been a flag btw.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

That should have been a INT. Manning gets so lucky.

Love how they're ball washing Clady and on that play Clady had is arm around the pass rusher's neck.

The one saving grace to having manning inside the 5, he likes to throw most of the time.

 

[TBR]

LOL I called that sitting in front of my TV. Manning with 3 straight throws from the 5 yard line. Of course.

Noticed that

Manning's deep throw that series was a lame duck & short and should have been picked. He's a shell of his former self but the mediots will not admit it. It does not fit the narrative.

They said his arm was stronger earlier, those passes looked really bad to me

I think/hope so too. I understand how the OL struggled as they haven't played as a complete unit the whole preseason. With more time together they should atleast improve.

However, I'm still somewhat shocked a defense with:

Revis
Dennard
McCourty
Jones
Wilfork
Ninkovich
Mayo
Collins
Hightower

struggled vs. the Dolphins. As others have said, it must point to coaching, and that's worrisome.

Week 1 usually not indicative of anything. See Week 1 of 2002 and 2003. A lot of questions raised today though:

1. Will Big Vince be able to "round" into shape?
2. Are there any capable interior rushers?
3. Are there any rushers, period, other than Chandler Jones?
4. Will teams continue to be able to exploit the LBs not named Jamie Collins in coverage?

Then, there is the ongoing situation with the other safety. Not sure I saw anything positive in that area today.

One thing that was a major problem today--bad tackling--I blame mostly on fatigue and lack of practice and expect to improve markedly.
