Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and prediction

man thats like go out there on a snow storm and complain about the weather.

Is HFA really that huge for us? We almost lost to saints, Broncos and even Browns lest for Brady's heroics which might not always happen in the playoffs. And in the last 2 AFC CG at home - we lost one and easily could have lost the other - both to the Ravens. Lost to the Jets in Div round at home and before that we got hammered by the Ravens. We might play better away.

game isn't over...and pats would have to win out now...

They will, Brady is the greatest and doesn't let openings like this slip away

That's weird, Manning usually gets more mystery flags on his game winning drives.

Yeah I kept waiting for a flag to fly in for a hit to the face or something on that batted pass.

What?! No flag for a shoulder slap? Drew brees got better treatment than that! Do these zebras no who rubs this zoo or what?

Lol.

Sir chokes a lot spits the bit, yet again, down in the fourth on the only nationally televised game of the night. Some things just don't change.

The pats now know they can control their destiny with a Denver loss.

What the hell is Mayock talking about. Manning's offense only put up 17pts and just coughed up the ball in a critical moment of the game and he's blaming the Denver defense.

I know records matter but does anyone else think Rivers is big, big MVP candidate?

Re: Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and predic

Again, though: why do you people want Denver to lose so badly? You really think we're gonna go 3-0 the rest of the way? Are you just tired of the media talking about how good Denver is, or…?

....Or we hate the Manning ballwashing. The same reason everyone wants Brady to fail. Human nature.

Re: Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and predic

that wasn't even his fault

Who said it was?

I thought a horse collar tackle required the tackler to fall on the ball carrier's back/legs?

Nope; a horse collar tackle is when you grab the back of the jersey and pull the player downward.

The Pats are 7-0 at home this year, plus Manning doesn't seem to like coming to NE, so I would say it's important.

Re: Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and predic

gotta score 7

3 should do just fine if they just bleed the hell out of that clock.

Looks like the Pats are the new Broncos and in the driver's seat for the #1 seed, provided the Broncos don't pull a Pats.

No. His stats are inflated like Manning's because of passing TDs. The Chargers PPG is only 24.3.

He was saying their D has to play better for them to win SB... which makes total sense...no matter how good their offense is they can't win a SB with that D..

Re: Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and predic

#1 seed!

So... you're saying there's a chance??

Re: Thursday Night Football, San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos: preview and predic

i don't even care about home field advantage. just look at last 4-5 champions. they all had to win on the road.

If Manning threw 8 consecutive pick-sixes after his defense had thrown a shutout for 3 quarters, announcers would find a way to lay the blame on the defense, the coaching, the special teams and the receivers.

Manning = source of all good, and only good
