Playing the Patriots, in New England, in sub-30 temps doesn't bode well for Peyton
 

So, I'll start with the weather. The forecast for Sunday in New England shows a mostly clear night, HOWEVER, also predicts sub-30 temperatures, and sub-20 real-feel.

Peyton's stats for sub-30 temperature games are as follows;

8 games (7 full games), Manning is 2-5 (.400)
175-285 (61.4%), 1761 yards (6.2), 76.7 QB Rating
If we extend the temp to sub-32, his rating drops to about 70.

As for going up against Brady and the Patriots, Peyton is 4-9 vs Brady all-time, and 6-10 vs Bill Belichick all-time. Despite not being very good, those records aren't horrible either.

But, when playing in New England it gets a whole lot worse. When playing in New England (including playoffs), Peyton is 2-9, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns, and has only one game without an INT.

Look at this however you want, but combining the fact that Peyton is going into New England where he doesn't usually fair too well, and that it likely going to be well below freezing. This is looking to possibly be a good game.

This shit is ****ing hilarious...so many people have been predicting doom and failure for Manning ever since he went to Denver and none of it has come true. Give it up already.

It's not even going to be close to doom and gloom. It just may not be as 'record setting' as it has been.

Denver doesn't need to have a complete meltdown in order to lose to the Pats in New England.

Man,Pats D is just ****ed right now. :mad:
Not that Brady cant out score the biggest Forehead ever.

yes they do :mad:

What's the spread on that game?

Prime Time @ the pissed off Pats... I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Patriots win this one.

Brady kinda owns Manning.

We control out own destiny so we don't really need to throw ourselves on a pier just yet. The Chiefs need to just beat the Chargers this week. We can't beat the donks till next week so we shouldn't worry ourselves with them until then. Just beat the Chargers!

They most definitely didn't have a meltdown against us, and we were a few moments of 'shooting ourselves in the foot' away from winning it.

They didn't have a meltdown vs the Colts.

Peyton can have a good day, and still lose.

True. It's really up to us whether we get the 1 seed or not. But it sure would be nice to see Denver lose another game before they come to Arrowhead.

That cold will hurt Denver bad. Manning lives by the air attack and cold like that has always hurt his game. The nerves in his neck will tighten up some like they did last January. No way he wins in that weather on the road. He almost never does.

I think he just wants to see one.

What's not to like about DOOM! and failure.

I'm dreamin' big, man. Pats beat 'em this week, (we beat the Chargers, obviously)

Then we get our revenge. Boom, two game lead in the division.

If Peypey does end up winning, I think it wouldn't be by holding New England to under 25 points. It'd be by reaching the over/under twice over.

that would be awesome. but those WR's are dynamite. unless they get hurt and unless the Pats defense suddenly can play...

Demaryius Thomas is a stud. Decker's... eh, pretty good. Julius Thomas and Welker are both banged up. (if they play)

LMAO

Peyton is a good egg.

Welker is going to make them pay. they will run it up and then run over that defense. this won't even be close.

Preach!

Refs will make the exact opposite happen

This will be a tough game for any biased calls from the refs, Donks or Pats. Hopefully it's the Patriots turn to win a few calls.

If anything, the refs owe Brady one.

Don't mean diddly dick if the Chiefs don't handle their business vs the Chargers.
I'd be more concerned with Rivers coming in here against a defense that suddenly can't seem to get to the quarterback than whatever the hell Peyton and the Broncos are doing.

It's not about him getting injured. Most of us have given up on that one. It's about his decreased production in New England and in freezing temperatures.

Manning's great, he's not super-human (for ****'s sake)

Make no mistake, these next two games are gonna be tough for the Donks.

Just checked the forecast and it isn't in our favor. 48 for a high. Crowd has to BRING IT big time.

It's Arrowwood. They'll bring it.

Denver -6.5

Patriots secondary is banged up. Bet heavy on Denver to win. It won't be close.

I know I will!!!!

Screw Denver. Go PATS!!!!!

Chiefs just win.

After the game I can go back to hating BOTH.

GO PATS!

It would be awesome to see the Donks lose and get beat up while they do it.

This.

strange cuz weather.com had it snowing on sunday just yesterday...sucks.

Wasn't Denver supposed to lose because of the weather last week? Didn't we have a double digit lead pretty much the entire game?

Wait. His stats get worse if you include warmer games? Meaning, he played better in colder games?

Kind of goes against the whole point, doesn't it?

In the last 4 games of 2012, Peyton threw for 1,150 yards, 8 TD and 2 INT.

Awful.

Doesn't matter at all who wins and loses this week, it's next week that counts. Whoever wins the Chiefs / Denver game will have the #1 seed.

If we win and Denver loses this week and then Denver beats us at Arrowhead , that means both teams are 10 and 2 and Denver will have beat us twice.

Look at the Broncos schedule after NE and KC.

Texans
Raiders
Chargers
Titans

The Chiefs need to basically win out to win the division, or pray that New England beats Denver so the Chiefs have 1 more game of breathing room.

Hello, wild-card!

Don't give a ****.

We play them in a week. Let's figure it out after playing Sandy Vagina.

Pretty much this has to occur or it's wild-card weekend on the road.

If it were to happen our magic number for the division/#1 seed would be 1 if the Colts drop one during that time as well.

I've got the pats marked down as the winner, always go with a HOF QB at home... its a very safe bet.

I wouldn't really consider 2 degrees all that warmer. It just slightly increases the sample size.

Didn't really get as cold as we'd hoped. It looked like it didn't even drop below 40 that day.

Oh, all the other games were right at 30°? I didn't realize that.

Just typical chief fan holding on to false hope. Denver will rape us again in arrowhead regardless of.tomorrow night.

Most of the games he has played in sub-30 temperatures were in the high 20s anyway. Don't need to be a sarcastic douche.

Just typical chief fan holding on to false hope. Denver will rape us again in arrowhead regardless of.tomorrow night.

No need to post this reeruned shit twice.

Just typical chief fan holding on to false hope. Denver will rape us again in arrowhead regardless of.tomorrow night.

Funny.

Reerun is horrible at being a hater. It seems forced.

Donks wins by 2 touchdowns

Now now. Hold on to your assless chaps.

Hows is knowing the limitations of your football team a hater?

We don't need the Pats to beat them - just to beat them up...

Just typical chief fan holding on to false hope. Denver will rape us again in arrowhead regardless of.tomorrow night.

10 pts as a road team is "rape?"

Exaggerate much?...

The donks took their feet off the gas last week...

So easy a Gronk could do it
Run the ball up Denver's light ass

Just for the sake argument and clarification, if the Chiefs win out, and the Donkey's only loss the rest of the season is next week, wouldnkt the Donkeys win the division?

No, Den would be one game back. They've already lost to the Colts...

Oh shit.

Brain fart.

I was trying to determine division winner based on same records.

If we both lose two games it would depend who we lost to.

Conference w/l plays in to tie breakers. If Den lost to the Colts and KC that's two conference losses.

If KC were to beat Den and lose to the Skins we'd have only 1 conference loss and win the division...

Let's assume that the Chiefs only other loss comes at the hands of the Colts.

Then it would probably skip all the way down to strength of schedule or something has division and conference and common opponents would be the same.

Has a wild card team ever been 14-2? That would be a neat record to hold.

Let's assume Fong Dong will be Quarterbacking this team next year.

We already have enough records, most consecutive playoff losses.

It wasn't the refs but the opposite happened :thumb:

Well hell, I guess this doom and gloom prediction turned out to be true. Funny thing is...the Super Bowl is being played outdoors in NYC in February this year. If this is truly an issue for Manning they are pretty much ****ed.

Yeah, I'm still amazed NY is hosting a Super Bowl in an outdoor stadium. Wasn't that the reason that KC couldn't host in 2015, the NFL said they needed a dome?

But yeah, if Denver actually does get to the big game, it wouldn't be too far fetched to look forward to a nice loss for them IMO, especially with some of the teams in the NFC.

Then again, it's not like any of the cold weather NFC teams are worth a damn this year. It could just end up being a shitty game. I really hope that Farmer's Almanac prediction comes true.
