***Official AFCCG Gameday Thread: Patriots v. Broncos

I had a dream alast night that the Patriots were starting to take the field for warm ups and the entire Broncos stadium was throwing popcorn at them. Somehow the field then started filling up with Patriots and Broncos fans. Skies got dark. People were holding torches. Everyone was yelling. Someone grabbed a Broncos beanie off of a Broncos fan's head, threw it on the ground, stomped it, then someone yelled "THE NORTH REMEMBERS" and it was a massive brawl in the middle of the field. It was pretty damn awesome.

Shouldn't have watched those Game of Thrones teasers last night

Broncos CB Chris Harris won't need surgery on his shoulder, but he struggles to brush his teeth & play with his 2-yr old. Weakness & pain.

If Chris Harris were a Patriot, the headlines would read "Chris Harris Can't Cover Two-Year-Old."

Not liking how all the medias are picking the pats.....i have a bad feeling about this.

Nothing matters but what happens on the field today, quit worrying about the underdog/favorite storyline

And he's supposed to be able to tackle today?

Chris Harris seems quite conflicted about what to tell the media.

Well, on of those 3 wins when the opponent scores over 19 was the 2006 AFCCG. So, it really doesn't make me feel much better. If anything the stat says when Manning has played with a lot of defenses that didn't show up. This year he's with the #1 D in the league, so it's not all that relevant of a statistic.

Harris playing press man coverage against our WRs with awful stinky breath? That's an unfair advantage... 4 game suspension

He has never seen an electric toothbrush?

I can see the stadium from my hotel room. I feel like Frodo gazing upon Mt Doom.

No, some people (media) think he's suppose to cover Edleman. Where's the hahahaha emoticon?

Being the overwhelming favorite was the kiss of death in last year's AFCCG, then?

What?!? Edelman is going to be covered by a guy who didn't brush his teeth? What about the integrity of the game? What about the hygeine of the game?!? Call the Commissioner!

So are the Broncos Gollum and they'll fall in the pit?

I'm told Broncos don't plan on shadowing any Patriots WRs today. As a unit decided it doesn't play to their strengths as a secondary.

I guess that means they'll all stay on their side and cover who is there; although it's worded like they won't bother covering at all

sounds like they will go zone and hope that their red zone defense limits the pats' offense.

Haven't played Madden since about 2003 and even then it was getting too complicated for me. I can't even begin to fathom what it must be like now. Thus, i will be going ice fishing instead.

I only ever played the original and IIRC '06. I missed the old play designer and quit for good.
