It was awesome.

Yeah, you've gotta give them credit for that one. Solid play.

I saw the article talking about Denver's pick plays this week. They are essentially money plays. Need a first down pick play. Tonight reminded me of playing Madden football and how there are things that are almost impossible to stop. Manning excels in this because he is such an accurate passer.

If more and more teams start doing this and the NFL doesn't stop it. Then the NFL will lose my interest just like the NBA has.

Go ahead and call me a soar loser now

Tell me how you feel about the Broncos o-line wearing vaseline on their arms for the 1997 playoff win at Camarohead.
