**Official 2016 NFL Conference Championship Weekend!** (Balls are INFLATED this time)

[BUTCH1]

Amendola fucked up big-time there, he has the right to block that guy and stop him from batting the ball out of the EZ.

The defenses have completely taken over this game. Nerve-racking type of game, but that's all that's needed for Denver if it continues like this.

also, no real running game for either team since the 1st quarter, so it could just be terrible all-over O-Line work, but it's not like there hasn't been some good blocking so far.

Yea, Miller has become a living nightmare for Brady at this point, he has zero chance of converting a 3rd down because Miller is on him in 1-2 seconds.

 

[zinfamous]

poor Manning. That Anderson run just busted up his play for top rushing today.

 

[zinfamous]

huge first down there for Denver

 

[MongGrel]

Just a little too much on the pass there.

3 points I guess.

 

[gorcorps]

So close! Ugh... that TD was there

 

[zinfamous]

amazing how that missed PAT in the first quarter still figures huge late in the game.

If NE doesn't score here and Denver doesn't do something stupid like settle on an ineffective run game to drain far too little clock, then Denver has it.

 

[BUTCH1]

IMO the Pats HAVE to move the ball here and get at least a FG, you can't expect your D to bail you out all fucking day, specially playing at that stadium where you wear down quicker.

 

[zinfamous]

that posterization looks like it will cost that fella some cash.

 

[TheSlamma]

They really should require 20/20 vision for refs

 

[zinfamous]

holy shit!

first NE stops big Denv 3rd and 1, and then this NE 4th and 1 stop. Crazy game.

 

[Ns1]

Pretty good game today.

I believe the Pats just gave up the game going for 4th and 1. Take the FG points (especially with 6min left)

 

[SSSnail]

Should have taken the 3 points right there.

 

[SP33Demon]

Amazing the refs didn't call "Unnecessary Roughness" on the 4th and 1 hit. lmao. Goodell didn't put the call in, eh.

Denver D is good as advertised. Hope TJ Ward can come back into the game, dirty hit on him on a pick. Fuck that.

 

[kn51]

I probably would have made the same call. But then you'd have to assume you get the 2 after making it in.

 

[gorcorps]

Pretty good game today.

Yup

I knew it would be. So many people thought NE was gonna lead a blowout, but the factors were always there for a good match up

 

[BUTCH1]

Damm!, I thought when Edeleman caught that ball we had the 1st, credit Harris for staying put and not getting fooled by that screen play

 

[zinfamous]

why is Denver running? didn't they listen to me?

 

[echo4747]

Pretty good game today.

agree...it is an entertaining game

Yeah, a missed PAT used to be almost always be a big deal, but were rare.

Why they increased it to begin with I guess.

1 point can really skew things.

 

[Ns1]

Wtf kind of run back attempt was that

 

[gorcorps]

It's like there's a gap in Denver's playbook for 3rd and long. They've done terrible in those situations

 

[gsethi]

Should have taken the 3 points right there.

The 4 points (1 PAT missed + 3 points not going for FG) is going to hurt the Patriots ~5min from now.
