Broncos lost to the Rams in a game that reminds me of last years week 1. Just in terms of how badly the Broncos played. The Rams can't honestly feel good about this game considering how the Broncos put it right in their lap. One plus, however, is that Denver's defensive was very impressive in allowing six FG's. I think only two of the FG's came on actual drives. The rest came when the Broncos turned the ball over and the Rams recovered and took possession already in FG range.

 

I swear, the Rams average starting field position in the first half had to be at about the Broncos 30 yard line.

 

Not a loss that really concerns me, though, especially after last years opening game.

 

Edit: And we should have a thread dedicated completely to Peyton Manning commercials. The man's hilarious.

What the f*** did Lavar Arrington just say during the introductions?

 

Rather than say "Lavar Arrington. Penn State.", I believe he said "Mr. Nichols. School of hard knocks."

I've got a 43 point lead going into this game. My opponent has Peyton, Plex, and Vinatieri. It looks like Manning may wipe out my lead in the first half.

 

Overall it's been a pretty s***** fantasy week for me. Hafner went down for the season, and the playoffs just started. No matter though, I'm going to be eliminated via tie-breaker due to this:

 

22 IP, 1.63 ERA, 2 W, 27 K -- ERA is the tie breaker

 

from Javier Vazquez and El Duque. I'll win the presidency before those two can put up those kind of numbers again in the same week.

The Giants secondary isn't doing much to help you out with two dropped interceptions so far.

Yeah, great stuff from Plex. Hmm, let's see, I think my opponent got all but one of the 23 first half points. Lovely.

:lol: I heard that too.

 

I was in such shock that I called up a bunch of people to confirm that it actually happened. Hahaha.

But he has a reputation for disappearing in big games.

 

He pushes off a lot, too, actually. Still, though... he makes some amazing catches.

Haha, Brandon Jacobs is a stud.

 

A little off-topic, but me and my friend have a season going in Madden where we have our own teams and we eachplay as eachothers opponents... he traded for Brandon Jacobs because he's the strongest RB in the game and he's got 32 TD's by week 11 and averages about 200+ YPG. Ripping me apart. :lol: :lol:

 

... But I have the league MVP (so far), Seneca Wallace. :D

I wish I could say it was my expert managerial moves that got Javy and Duque to put up those numbers, but I was just lucky as hell.

The Broncos offense has looked like s***, but the defense has kept two capable offenses out of the endzone so far this year. 9-6 Broncos beat the Chiefs in OT.

Should be a great game next week!

 

Let the trash talking begin... :lol:

Here's one interesting thing to look for in the game...

 

Our #1 CB vs. your #1 WR - Mismatch in favor of the Broncos

Our #2 CB vs. your #2 WR - Mismatch in favor of the Broncos

Our #3 CB vs. your #3 WR - Mismatch in favor of the Broncos

 

:D :D :D

 

I really think the Patriots are going to have trouble doing anything against this Broncos defense. The LB's and secondary are too good and your offense is pretty one dimensional, at least on paper.

 

That said, this Broncos offense looks incapable of scoring on anybody themselves.

Then again, the Pats gave up 17 points to both the New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills <_>

Capable and Huard don't quite add up.

Very true, but any time you have Larry Johnson you're somewhat dangerous. Plus Eddie Kennison always torches the Broncos ever since he was one.
