Football Manning's rag arm - Page 3

**cdcox** · 01-13-2013, 12:13 AM

Maybe he hasn't fully recovered from his time off. Maybe he comes back next year rejuvenated and on fire at age 37.

But today he was Mr. Dink and Dunk. He had a couple of 15 yard TDs that were nice, but they were placement throws, not lasers. On two throws late in the game, the pass to Stokely that was reviewed in the first overtime, and the game losing INT, he clearly didn't get as much on the ball has he wanted to. The mind was willing but the arm was a dish rag.

Maybe it was because it was late in the game, late in the season and in cold weather coming off an injury. But even ignoring his normal playoff chokatude, his arm was really sub par today.

Here's another one: what if a ball coming out of a QBs hand while it's moving forward were a pass attempt, not a fumble?

That was clearly a fumble.

What if PM pump-faked and brought the ball down, had 2 hands on the ball and then dropped it? That's what I saw and I think that's what the refs saw as well. The announcers were clearly on Denver and Green Bay's side in the 2 games and did their best to not "see" the right arm being held on the PI or both hands on the ball on the fumble and several calls in both games.

Denver fans can talk shit on John Fox and Rahim Moore and the Refs all they want.

They had 2 return TDs
Peyton threw a pick 6 and another god awful Favrelike INT in OT
Their vaunting no 2 D got smoked. Champ its time to hang it up

That wasnt the tuck rule Donk fan, he controlled it as it came down to his waist. He repossed it and then while it was at his waist he lost it.

While were playing the what if game, what if the Ravens were drenched in Vaseline for the game? How would Donkey fans perceive that?

i had to pee at halftime

my stream had more velocity than manning's throws...

At one point Deirdorff was noting how patient Manning was with all the short throws and how he may be the most patient QB in NFL history with short throws bla bla bla. Complimenting Manning for making the short throws.

I was laughing my ass off, I guess Dan didn't see any Chiefs games the last 4 years. Cassel can out patient Manning on short throws all day long. HOF bound!

What did you expect when the Broncos signed him? Predicting anything other than one and done from him would be awfully delusional. He makes terrible decisions in the clutch and more often than not loses the first game of the playoffs, even when he's the prohibitive favorite to win.
Those who do not know history.....

Except when he plays the Chiefs........

Lovely tears!

This season played out almost exactly like Favre's in Minny. Kind of wierd.

Pasta Little Brioni · 01-13-2013, 09:34 AM

Like we said before the year. Howard the Duck reared it's ugly head.

The Broncos beat themselves:

1. Running the ball on 3rd & 7, with the chance to ice the game with a 1st down.
2. Kneeling it with :31 left, 2 TO's, and Manning at the helm.
3. The piss poor coverage and angle Moore took on the TD pass to Jones. Just...wow.
4. Manning's awful INT throw in OT to seal the game.

Everything went wrong for the Broncos in the last 5 mins and OT of that game. Ravens had some calls bounce their way to be fair, but the Broncos failed to capitalize on several opportunities to win it.

If Holliday didn't kill it on ST, it would have been a double digit win for the Ravens despite the PI calls, holding calls, and all the other stupid penalties they committed.
