It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Agreed, but apparently it was worth it to them and a loss they could comfortably enough absorb. I wonder if they did the same thing last year.Well, no offense to Modell's, but they took a pretty stupid gamble--both in a business sense, and in overall common sense.
This was not the right year to gamble 500,000 that we'd somehow go to Denver and beat Manning for the 4th straight time with the team that they were fielding.
We obviously had a reasonable shot, but I don't know what would have led anyone to believe that it was worth a 500,000 gamble. Not too many people looked at yesterday's game and immediately felt that N.England were definitely going to win. As a matter of fact, the heavy consensus and money were favoring Denver tremendously.

and forget Manning's video game year when was the last time if ever that new England beat Denver in Denver in the playoffs I cant remember a reg season win there
Well, there was the regular season victory where we intentionally took the safety late in the game and came back to win it, but that was quite some time ago.
