John Madden Mentions The Pats And The Chiefs As Teams That Could Beat The Broncos
 

I know, I know. Madden could very well be senile. I haven't heard him speak in quite a while so take this with a grain of salt.

On Wednesday, John Madden spoke on his SiriusXM radio show, “Madden Football,” about Peyton Manning and the Broncos. Here’s a brief, pared-down transcript of Madden’s comments:


Madden: “I’ve been in this league for a long time, and it’s just a quarter of a season, four games, and I don’t know, in the history of the game, if a quarterback has ever played the game better for one quarter of a season. Now you don’t get awards for that, and it doesn’t mean a whole heck of a lot, but I don’t know, I can’t … remember anyone having a quarter of the season, or four games, like Peyton Manning’s had.”

Co-host Adam Schein: “Can anybody beat Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos?”


Madden: “I think it is going to be tough. The way they are playing right now, I don’t see it. If they had to play — and it would be real interesting — if they had to play in Seattle I would say that would be a tough one. But the only way that they would play Seattle is in the Super Bowl, and then that’s not up there at their place. I can’t see anyone. The closest team would be getting in a shootout with Tom Brady; that would probably be a possibility. Kansas City (is a possibility) if they can keep the score down, but you can’t keep the score down, what the heck am I talking about? The only thing I can see is Tom Brady getting some players back, getting in a shootout and beating them.”

I know you guys feel like you get ignored by the national media, but you're getting positive attention, even if it is from a crazy-**** old Raider.

Anybody believe this Alzheimer's opinion?

BOOM!

**** Madden. that is all.

If you can just score more points than the opponent you have a pretty good chance of winning.

People talk about the Broncos dominating, and their margin of victory right now is averaging 22 points per game. But the second most dominating team? Kansas City, with an average margin of victory of more than 15 points per game.

"I like putting Tinactin on my tacos"

"Blah blah br-br-blah Farve!"

Ramblings of a crazy old man.

But I’ll take it.

I quit taking madden serious after he claimed brady was the best QB he'd ever seen. hype sucks.

I thought John Madden was dead. RIP John.

Wut?

Umm he isn't that far off on that stats don't lie :thumb: I would take Brady over any other qb in a heartbeat! Him or Aaron Rogers over Manning.

Going through Madden quotes feels like sifting through entrails to divine the future. You have to wonder how many of the synapses are still firing off. But the guy has a tremendous amount of football knowledge crammed into that head of his. You just have to look behind the blooming onions, the foot spray and Brett Favre's penis.

No, no, no. That's John Goodman who is dead.

You could say the same for Rodgers.

The only way this would be possible, is if we had almost everybody healthy, we were 9-0, and coming off a bye.

...oh wai

but not over Joe Montana for bestess ever right?

You can make an arguement for a handful of guys including Brady. I'd have trouble picking a number 1 so I would say that anyone backing one of those guys is reasonable.

Joe Montana was amazing i'm not saying he isn't one of the greatest. He is clutch in the playoffs, but so is Brady. That's all I am saying and I think we have the D that can slow down Denver. He isn't going to be throwing it this many times when it starts to get colder. Which means he will have to rely on his running game. I don't think Madden is far off here I am have been saying this for a couple weeks. I think we can beat Denver!

Brett Favre!

Payton, so far this year, has had the luxury of 3 out of 4 home games. I'm interested to see what kind of numbers he is going to put up as more away games are played in hostile environments.

FYP

The chiefs if they play perfect football could beat them. You just need to go man and get pressure. Hide the formation and sub quicker. Fake injuries when they want to go go no huddle. Then get our running game going to eat the clock.

But then you have to do it.

Chiefs will beat them at Arrowhead-mark that down!

You don't have to get in a shootout if you hit the QB like they have been.

I wonder after we go 5-0 this wekend and donks lose to the cowboys if they will still be ranked above us in Power Rankings?

One of those scenarios, is not going to happen. You pick.

Manning is due for a couple Ints. I don't think the Donks weak defense can stop the Cowboys. I know people think they will go 19-0 and have already given them the Superbowl- but this will be a tough game for them. They are cocky and due for a beat down.

Chiefs will smash the Titans- they might keep it close the first half before out D makes adjutmenst and closes them out.

I don't know anyone that thinks Denver goes undefeated.
But I think they smash Dallas.

The Cowboys suck.

I saw a critique that the teams the Chiefs have beaten are only 3-13 on the year. However, the teams the Broncos have beaten are only 4-12.

Yeah neither team has seen a big game yet. Ya just gotta pound who they put in front of you.
It's like Tuesday night at the bar...

It's a long season, and we are barely into it.

Whatever. They're going to lose in Dallas Sunday.

Absolutely.

Exactly. It's not our fault that the NFC East is a bunch of patsies.

I certainly don't expect it. I like how they said that they were going to be more aggressive on O and they're doing it. In my opinion they were too conservative last year. I mean, seriously, spend the time/effort/money on Peyton Manning and then shut it down if you're ahead by 5? Kneel at the half in the playoffs...both times...with decent time on the clock? Stupid.

Yeah thats on Fox. I bet it stuck in his craw all off season too. At least I hope it did. :D

It should have. Well, the only fall guy available for that has moved on to coach another team. Our old QB coach is now our OC and I like the change.

No they aren't. That's not even going to be a game. Dallas will give up before the end of the 1st Quarter. Their coach sounded like he'd given up already the other day on NFLN. Basically said his message to the team is that no matter how badly Denver is kicking their ass, they will have to keep playing.

Tony Dungy was remarking the other day about how familiar Manning will probably be with Dallas's D.

great, madden is shooting off his mouth, now we're screwed !

I mean..JFC.

we might have the defense

If Cooper develops as a 3rd DB


We might have the offense

if our Oline comes together and 4th quarter production turns into full game production



we'll see

Tinactin.

KC can't beat the Donx as things stand now. The offense MUST score more points in order to be a serious threat. Hopefully by the time the Chiefs play Denver, the offense will have improved. I think having two healthy TE's this week will start the offensive improvement.
