He has no zip on his throws.

His throw to the sideline route fluttered, and his pass over the middle that was picked had no zip, which allowed the corner to get his hand on it and tip it.

He looks like Chad Pennigton trying to make Delieverance throws.

Yep, same great mind and quick release, but the arm strength isn't there like was being reported by the clueless media and Bronco homers.

It looks like he never stepped off the field. He looks in prime form!!!!!!!! Bullshit.

A couple of times he had to step up into the pocket... looked as if he may have had the opportunity to run if you know what I mean. Not that he has ever been very fast... but damn he looked slow and tenative.

Reminded me of Unitas late in hs career.

I didn't catch the Dolphins game... but I think Matt Moore has shown the ability to play well. He's probably not going to get a fair shot with Tannehill though.

And I totally agree about Manning... said the same thing in the thread the other night. He may still have success... his mind is still there. But his throws didn't have the same pop. I don't know what some of these people are seeing. I think no one wants to be the guy who says it. Maybe he'll get there with more practice. He didn't throw any long passes outside the numbers though. That'll be the test.

I think Unitas had accomplished everything he could have, and had cemented his legacy as the greatest ever by the time he was traded to the Chargers.

He was just hanging on because he didn't know what else to do.

Deliverance, on the other hand, still has some unfinished business, and were he to retire today, his legacy would be unfulfilled.

He has more motivation to adjust and become more accustomed to his new limitations, and I think he will.

It will, however, take some time.

Then again maybe he's just playing rope a dope in the preseason and will start throwing 70 yard bombs in week 1.

Disagree.

It appears the battle to start had come down to Moore and Garrard, with Tannehill as the project.

With Garrard out with an injury, it's almost a certainty that Moore will start the season behind center.

I noticed that every one of his passes had a wobble to it. If Manning loses 10% or more of his arm strength, which I think he has, he just becomes another quarterback. Damn glad the Chiefs didn't mortgage the future to get him. Thanks for excluding us Peyton.

I wasn't talking about the Unitas that went to the Chargers. Late in his career with the Colts he looked old and slow... but could still make plays. Mannings movements reminded me of that. You kind of fear for his safety if teams start putting pressure on him... something the Bears really didn't do.

I'd still take him over Cassel and its not even close.

Test: Manning

Peyton Manning



LMAO I thought Manning was being filtered to Deliverance in Milkman's posts. Why do you call him that?

Chandler Harnisch aka Mr. Irrelevant (Colts) with a TD pass on his first ever NFL drive.

I couldn't agree more. I can not understand the lack of respect that Matt Moore receives.

He was one of the only QBs I wanted in the 2012 draft outside of Luck, RGIII, and Tannehill.

Just finally saw that touchback call by the officials in the Redskin-Bill game.

That's some of the funniest shit ever.
