How bout them Cowboys! *OFFICIAL Week 9 NFL Thread*

God that was a bullet, hell of a catch by Edeleman.

 

[gorcorps]

Well... Fuck

 

[TheSlamma]

Now at least the Broncos SB talk can take a break for a bit, team is riddled with holes and a terrible head coach

 

[BUTCH1]

Well... Fuck

Game's far from over, funky things happen on punts when the kick is delayed or the returner drops and then picks up the ball, I think that's why the Denver ST was out of position to make a play on the return.

 

[Blackjack200]

Perfectly thrown TD. In your face, cowgirl apologist.

I consider Foles injury a blessing in disguise. He's been the weak link in Chip's O scheme almost all year. Fly, Eagles, Fly!

As a former Jets fan gradually converting to an Eagles fan, do not get excited about Mark Sanchez.

I'm not. Shady has been tentative (to my eyes) all season. Plus, he's not your prototypical "sure short yardage" guy.

Whereas, Polk is a bruiser who's just not well known yet. The guy's a tackle-breaking beast, which is why the Birds cut a lot of other backs who did well in preseason and kept him on the roster, even though he was hurt most of the preseason and, basically, until now.

Do they use Sproles in short yardage situations at all? Obviously he's not a traditional bruiser, but he's just so damn elusive.

 

[BUTCH1]

Wow, PM could have had a sandwich and then thrown that ball, if NE can't muster more pressure than that things will turn quickly.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Can't make mistakes in a game like this and Denver is making all of them.

Still a long, long way to go, Pat's just missed out an easy chance to maintain possession with a 3rd and 1, PM is a machine you need to keep the ball out of his hands.

 

[BUTCH1]

Going for it on 4th and 6?, wow..

 

[BUTCH1]

And it blows up in their faces!!

And so is Brady, this game is over

broncos are the best team at embarrassment losses

 

[gorcorps]

They look bad. I expect the offense to struggle because of the crowd noise screwing with the usual communication. The defense doesn't look good either though. I know he's Tom Brady but come on.

Hoping for some 2nd half adjustments

 

[Capt Caveman]

NE gets the ball to start the 2nd half. Really surprised how well the NE defense is handling the run especially being mostly nickel coverage.

What Brady's been working on (due to the early-season O-line troubles) is shifting around in the pocket to gain that extra second or two to get off the pass.

 

[Leon]

Well, Patriots came back from 24-0 last year. Lets see if Manning makes this interesting. We've seen some incredible comebacks in this rivalry.

Yea, not bad at all, really the 4th and 6 sack was a 10 point play, the sack gave Brady the short field vs a possible FG and kickoff to the 20

 

[gorcorps]

Getting rid of prater has to be the biggest misstep that Elway and company has made. The new guy is awful, and forced their hand in that 4th and 6 situation. I think they would have went with a FG in that situation with prater.

 

[gorcorps]

Thank god, finally a good defensive play. Let's turn this into points

 

[BUTCH1]

I think we will see more blitzing from Denver, the NE run game is going nowhere and they are getting tired of Brady completing passes downfeild.

 

[BUTCH1]

Amazing that PM can get it out that fast and still be that accurate, there was no way to defend that pass without getting a PI call, perfectly thrown.

 

[gorcorps]

You've got to be FUCKING kidding

 

[manimal]

Broncos dont look as bad as the bears but man those patriots are playing good Defense and Brady is Vintage brady

 

[Chaotic42]

Ouch. Poor Welker.

This stuff is all good for my fantasy football team, but I'd still rather see Denver win. If anyone can get them out of this, it's Peyton.

 

[BUTCH1]

You've got to be FUCKING kidding

Yup, PM hit him right on the numbers and he tosses it to a defender, it will go down as a pick by PM but in reality that was a pick totally on Welker.

 

[tmc]

Still can't get over the fact that PM has to play 3rd year in a row at NE. The scheduler must be a moron.
