Felger was gushing about the Pats win, basically guaranteeing that there will be a rematch of this in the AFCCG and that the Patriots are a better team than the Broncos.
I'm sure the competition committee will look at this as some kind of unfair advantage that the Patriots gained and will change the rule.Gotta love Ebner and Cole.
Asked if that’s legal, Cole replied, “I hope so.”

It's definitely that Miller sucks and he only had a good game because Solder is slowVon Miller is good or Solder is slow.
Man, I stayed up to 2 am...only one hour later here but that one hour the morning after is a big hour.
I mean what a game.
You can never understate the importance of momentum in football, I mean it is huge.
Great gut check. Great defensive strategy, Moreno can have all the yards he wants as long as we have the win at the end of the day.
Nicely Done NEP, nicely done....
What about the job Arrington did last night? The man-to-man coverage, whether the pass was completed or not, was tight ALL NIGHT. Hell, even the TD pass to Tamme (I believe) had to be squeezed in a tight window between Hightower and Harmon. Even Dennard gave a few decent plays before taking himself out. The Pats stepped up big time.
It has to do with arm strength (to a degree), but I don't think anyone in the NFL has worked on mechanics like our guy Brady. Not only does it reduce wear n' tear on his arm, it also allows for the ball to be better thrown in unpredictable outdoor weather. A luxury PM didn't have to worry about until a couple years ago.Brady had the arm strength to make the throws that Manning couldn't. That was huge in this game.
As expected a lot of headlines around seem to talk about a bad bounce and wind which let to denver's loss. Everyone forgets about the 24 lead.
- Love having Spikes in there. He attacks the play and his instincts make up for his lack of speed.
- Collins looked pretty good considering it was his first start. He’s not the strongest at the point of attack when defending the run, but when he was called to rush the passer or when he was out in space in coverage, you can see why the Pats have high hopes for him.
Brady, stud game.
Arrington, underrated great game.
Jones, great game, could have 4204230 sacks if it weren't for holding.
Thompkins, 6 receptions 56 yards. Slowly working his way out of the doghouse.
Peyton, you suck.
Except that Thompkins wasn't in the doghouse. He was just behind Dobson, Edelman, Amendola and Collie.. Collie is IRed. Not sure what was up with Dobson last night. But Edelman showed he is still a bonafide NFL receiver. And Thompkins got snaps because he showed he can get off the press coverage and get open.
Oh, lets not forget about Vereen and Solder. Solder, despite being beat a couple of times by Von Miller, had an excellent game run blocking. And I did notice that the Broncos started moving Miller around in the 2nd half instead of just lining up against Solder.
Solder played terribly for the most part his worst game as a Patriot to me. Von Miller made him look like a turnstyle. If he had held his blocks a little better on most occasions this game wouldn't go to OT. That pass to Edelman in the EZ the one he missed was because of instant pressure from Solder man Von Miller. A little more time easy TD.
