Football John Madden Mentions The Pats And The Chiefs As Teams That Could Beat The Broncos - Page 3

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.

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 a long season, and we are barely into it.

Strongside · 10-04-2013, 01:38 PM

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

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.

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.
