Football Amnorix - it's time for the Hoodie Bowl - Page 6

Mile High Mania · 10-05-2009, 09:23 AM

Yeah, yeah... this is a Chiefs' board, but I wanted to stir something up with the resident NE fan. I definitely like the location of this game and it has to be nothing but a solid advantage for Denver. If Dallas was favored by a FG, I'm guessing NE will be favored by at least 6-7 points.

It is what it is, but if Denver's defense plays like they have in the first 4 games... then it's going to be a close game and one that Denver could actually win. Can they go 5-0? That's a tall freaking order, but they're slowly getting more aggressive on offense and defensively, they're going to be tested for 4 straight quarters with NE.

The realists in me says Denver will not go 5-0... something has to give and Denver will lose a number of games this year, but I'm very optimistic about their chances of winning if they can put the pressure on Brady like they did with Romo.

Amnorix - what do you think of this matchup? Oh, and the rest of you can chime in as well... this will be an interesting chess match between teacher and pupil.

Like I said, the Patriots are trying to make their way back. They are a consistant contender that's in transition but they don't have the swagger they did 2001 thru 2007. Not to say it won't be there in December. But things are a bit off. My hats off to the Broncos.

It was a good game... could have gone either way. Denver lost the turnover battle, but they dominated in every other category (Time of possession, 1st Downs, Total Yds, Passing / Rushing Yds, etc).

I was happily surprised and it was great to see the emotion explode at the end of the game. Wow, 5-0... never expected it and now 9 wins is a more realistic option (Oak and KC play in Denver, Denver plays @ KC and @ WAS - those are 4 potential wins, not to mention SD in Denver is always a reality).

It's amazing how much differently this season has gone so far... but, it is still early and I will not let myself get all caught up in thinking ahead. It's all about @ SD now. I've seen monumental collapses before... so, one game at a time.

Yeah...over it's head. 7 points allowed in the second half all year just doesn't seem like an accident.

QFT. One QB drove his team down the field for the winning score today...and it wasn't Tom Brady.

Kyle Orton

#8 | QB | Broncos
35/48, 330 YDS, 2 TD, 1 INT

Tom Brady

#12 | QB | Patriots
19/33, 215 YDS, 2 TD

That INT was a Hail Mary 65 yard bomb at the end of the first half. A meaningless INT, by Randy Moss of all people.

Where are you Amno?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Amnorix · 10-15-2009, 01:21 PM

I haven't been avoiding this thread. Haven't been active much on here at all really.

I was, however, very active on the day of the game, and was posting in the game-day thread.

I said everything in that thread. Was there something else you were looking for me to say other than "see you in the playoffs" (maybe)?

Amnorix · 10-15-2009, 01:30 PM

Here's the thread, which I started BTW. I had 47 posts there. Let me know if you have any questions or anything.
