Mariota looking great in his debut.

Yes he... sure is. I'm about to say something I haven't said in ten years. Is it time for Oilers hockey yet?

[Hollyw00d]

Not super pumped about jameis?

[nate]

Broncos offense looks terrible.  OL can't pass protect, Peyton looks old and they are definitely missing Julius Thomas.

[nate]

The first redzone snap of the entire game for either team in the Broncos/Ravens game came with 3.5 minutes remaining in the game... it was a screen pass for a loss that brought them outside of the 20.  What a terrible game.

[Hollyw00d]

AO is probably hammered drunk right now celebrating the rams win over seadderall

[Chimi]

Cowboys pulled out the win and Romo pulled out another great game winning drive. He didn't really look great all game but he was when it mattered.

Unfortunately we also lost both Dez Bryant and Randy Gregory for the next 4-6 weeks. Which in Cowboys speak is usually at least 8-12 weeks

Foles >>>>>>> Bradford!

Thank you Eagles!

That is all.

Manning looked bad. Isn't denver replacing 4 of 5 O lineman as well

[Chimi]

Not sure who made this seeing how it's Byron Maxwell, not Bryon, just still funny.

if my math is correct, check this out:

 

winston has lost his last two games (last college game and first pro game), his only two losses since going to college. the opposing QB in both games? marcus mariota.

[Brandon]

Moot, it won't be his last.

[Tank]

no, of course not. wasn't suggesting otherwise.

 

was just pointing out the coincidence.

[Brandon]

I know, my comment was more how he played Sunday...or maybe how much better Mariotta or the Titans played.

 

It looked Jamarcus Russel like.

 

Kind of a trip to see someone so successful falter on the big stage. We haven't seen this since......Matt Leinhart, Tim Tebow, Gino Torretta, Rashaan Salaam, Chris Weinke, Ron Dayne, Lawrence Phillips, Curtis Ennis, etc. 

[Tank]

yeah, i don't really expect much from winston. pretty overrated player.

[nate]

How often do these headcase players ever succeed in the NFL?

 

Of course he could turn it all around.

[Hollyw00d]

Its one game, lets see how the rest of the season goes.

I think if he fails however, it will be more because the bucs are an awful team and he has no support than because he is immature

[Brandon]

Would be cool if the refs didn't throw a flag every ****ing play. I hate these type of games where the refs dictate the pace and play.

 

Pretty sure that KC turnover is going to haunt them.

[Hollyw00d]

I dont know who I want to lose most tonight.

Eh, screw the donkeys and manning

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

The Denver offense is ****ing terrible. How do you waste a TO there to go for it on fourth down instead of kicking the FG. Ridiculous.

[Brandon]

Weeeeeeeee

 

2 games, 2 INT's for Peters. Dude has been quality so far and worth the first round pick.

[nate]

I was reading something talking about Manning and how he has basically run the same offense his entire career until this year.  He never got hit and always knew where everything was going.  Now he has to learn a new offense in which he is getting hit quite a bit and has obviously diminished physical abilities.  Doesn't bode well for the Broncos.

 

I don't get the coaching switch at all, especially Kubiak who has never done shit.

[Brandon]

This game is going to be like the one 2 years ago or so where the Chiefs went up 14-0 and were killing it to start the game then didn't do shit and Denver ran all over them for a blowout.

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

I don't disagree with any of the Manning comments but the biggest issue is the O-line.  You can't run Manning or Kubiak's offense if the O-line is letting the 39 year old play caller spend most of the game getting hit.  Forget making it through the season he won't make it through week 6 unless they pick it up big time. 

 

John Fox is a good coach but some of his play calling screwed the Broncos and considering the roster he had I don't blame Elway for going in another direction.  As far as Kubiak goes that's a guy a lot of people (myself included) wanted to see end up the head coach after Shannahan but his opportunity came with Houston before Denver was ready to part ways with Mike.  I agree he is far from the perfect fit with Manning but I think they have a long term view with him knowing Manning's window is just about closed.

 

Brandon I don't count on Denver's defense keeping it up all game and expect Charles to rack up some yards in the second half.  Momentum swung before half time but it's a tie game while KC starts with the ball.

Both offensive lines are terrible and so many turnovers.  Very sloppy.  Not what you would expect from the Chiefs who are really methodical.
