    Shit we'll get to make a lot of those for another couple weeks. Especially with how many teams seem to get off to a slow start every year and turn it on later. Or the hot out the gate teams that fade.

    They hit a pretty big wall there, though, although it was clear Tebow was going to do nothing against the Pats.

    Always felt like Manning for the most part had inferior teams around him (overall) that he would raise up. Once they got to the big game if he wasn't perfect they'd be over-matched

    I can buy this reasoning. Although I wonder if Alex Smith being your QB changes the equation slightly. Btw among active RB's, since 2008 Charles had the 5th most fumbles in the league going into tonight (assuming numbers/search is correct).

    On the flip side it's not like Smith had a clean sheet either. Also he's not exactly a chuck it down the field passer either I guess. I don't know how much he fumbles to be honest, worth checking into. I just can't imagine throwing it is any safer than what they did. Either you try to make...

    If they'd had more than one timeout, yeah I wouldn't run it. With just the one, you're looking for the safest way possible to make something happen to bring a realistic shot at a field goal into play. Just the absolute fluke worst possible thing ended up happening. Can happen to anyone.

    Honestly though, what bad can happen outside of a fumble? You have a good back, with a timeout in your pocket, who could break off a 15-20 yard run. Get a personal foul for a late hit or a horse collar/face mask...there are multiple possibilities that could happen. If you take a penalty, then...

    This. Never understand the "the chances of something actually happening for your offense are so slim". As opposed to a fumble on a "safe" running play? Shit happens sometimes. Phil Simms is fucking terrible.

    Signs of life in Manning tonight. Still doesn't look right. Wtf was up with that picked up flag earlier in the drive though? No PI, but had to at least be illegal contact, no?

    It's nowhere near as severe, but putting pressure on it to walking with a slight limp isn't at the same level as being able to run routes in the NFL on it either. I agree though that 8-10 sounds more reasonable.

    In isolation, I agree for pure talent. I think Toews brings a lot more 2 way play than either Malkin or Sid do (and did most of the heavy lifting in Vancouver when Canada won the gold medal, despite the soft goal Miller allowed to Sid to end it) though, and as good as Letang is, he's no Duncan...

    Can definitely say the Caps have failed at it, although the Penguins are a little more debatable. They won one Cup and went to the Finals another year. Yes, overall you'd expect better results with Sid (and hell, Malkin, who won the Conn Smythe the year they won the Cup), but they've certainly...

    I just hope the Oilers don't waste him. They've had a slew of high end picks recently and haven't had much progress to show for it. McDavid is obviously the next level, and pretty much a lock to have success from Day 1, would be nice to see the team show some progress.

    Yeah, been to Skins/Ravens, Skins/Cowboys, and basically Capitals vs any of their rivals (Penguins/Flyers/Rangers) and you just hear a lot of trash talk. Saw 1 fight at Redskins/Ravens game, but it was involving a guy in a Jags jersey (which was odd as shit).
