NFL Week 8 Games

[ausbacker]

As per usual, the AFC most likely goes through Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. I like those odds, historically speaking of course.

If I remember last year, it was a convincing win from the Broncos on Sunday night that sparked the "I don't care! I can't stand it!" thread.

Attention Mike McCarthy: You are not going to hit that 30-yard out route tonight. Might want to try something else.

Yea, ok, either Denver is a TOWERING better team than GB, GB forgot how to play football, or GB is WAY overrated(or all of the above). Denver's blitz has literally made GB a worse passing team than the Kapaernik led 49ers. McCarthy and Rogers have absolutely no adjustment for this? Really??

What isn't overrated for this game is changing the channel. What a disappointing game to what otherwise seemed like a rarity these days, a matchup between two very good teams.

You do know that you can turn this part of your message off, right?

Regardless of what happens with the rest of this game, we've seen, so far, a textbook demonstration of three reasons I put Brady above Rodgers:

Brady - Better with pre-snap reads
Brady - Better with post-snap reads
Brady - Better at throwing his receivers open

Apparently not.

Playing off of Demaryius Thomas? You're gonna have a bad time.

Denver (and Manning) better than I thought.

Unfortunately Bill didn't listen and copy Elway's blueprint on how to build a successful team, and the 2014 Patriots went nowhere.

Well who didn't see that coming

This is why Brady/Belichick > Rodgers/McCarthy

 

[FourierSeries]

Manning is good for at least one of those per game.

 

[LivinLovin&Breathin_Brady]

Manning gives Rodgers another chance to go 3 and out.

 

[VrabelJr]

There he is!

 

[Joey007]

There's good ole Manning

 

[robbomango]

And there's the mighty noodle....

 

[TommyD4207]

There's Peyton Manning. Poor guy almost lasted 3 quarters after the bye.

 

[TheBostonStraggler]

Apparently not.

Well we did all see it so I guess it is the case. But being these are the 6-0 Green Bay Packers, color me shocked they have no way to complete a pass over a blitz against any defense.
