4 p.m. (EST) Mid-60s and cloudy..Live on the NFL network.

The late Sunday game is the opening for SF's new stadium...

We'll se a lot of Blaine Gabbert at QB for SF.

I'd be surprised if Frank Gore played....want to see Carlos Hyde from Ohio State.

One quarter for Peyton 2 for Brock Osweiler..

With Ball and CJ Anedrson out...Ronnie Hillman will get a lot of carries

With Trvethan out and Von Miller still not ready....Brandon Marshall will start and a rookie Lemin Barrow will get his first real chance..

I want to see the new stadium

Juwan Thompson. If you see any of the game, live or later, pay attention to him. I think this guy could be very good. Excellent in pass protection, and he only goes forward. I haven't seen tackle for a loss yet and even if he gets stopped, he always get at least one more yard.

FINAL: 34-0

Shocking domination.

SF was without several regulars but Denver was without Von Miller, Danny Trevethan. Kevin Vickerson, Montee Ball..Emmanual Sanders

..on and on..

I dodt know if it says more about Denver than it does about SF..

the 49ers got toasted in week one, too, didn they?

The Broncos looks great so far this pre-season.....

And we open our regular season with them in Denver.

And yet there are some who are confident of a Colts victory there.

Wish I was one of them.....

I wasn't confident last year , and I was right. Not fun playing Peyton after his team was beaten in the playoffs the year before.

It was not pretty. It's a shame the Orioles couldn't have moved their game so we would have gotten them at home, but I think the result would have been roughly the same .

 

You would have had a different week 1 game. The home/away games are determined before the weekly opponents are set.

The Broncos basically could not have had a better year then they did last year...and we all saw how that went once they got to the Superbowl. Complete annihilation.

Not true. Denver could have played significantly better than they did last year..defensively....much better

That's been their 'plus' so far. Playing without Kevin Vickerson, Von Miller and now Danny Trevethan and using simple, base defenses in the pre-season....they have done well against SF and Seattle...Teams many said they could not play with...

one note, though: They have to see Seattle and SF again early in the season and those two teams will bring a lot more into real games .

I have said since February that people misunderstand that game and I still believe it very strongly.  I honestly think that those two teams were very evenly matched and that if the game were played over and over again that they would have basically split.  However, there are always outliers, games where one team plays absolutely horrible and their oppononent near perfect.  That game was one of those outliers.  It in no way shows that the Seahawks were some unbeatable juggernaut and the Broncos a complete hollow shell.  Rather, it just shows that anyone can be completely blown out every now and then.

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      You have a good heart because unfortunately money rules the world. Without it, you can't do anything or live nice. I am just talking live halfway nice, nothing mind popping like buying 3 cars and a half million-dollar house. To your point, being a good person with good morals is super important though . I try to treat people well and help people as much as I can.

      So this Anthony Richardson guy...........

      Fun fact: Smith took Mike Tyson the distance, only 1 of 2 fighters to do that when Mike was Champ from 1986-1989. Tony Tucker was the other.

      I have seen a few clips of Creed 2 on Youtube but never have watched the whole movie. I seen where Drago is in it. I thought Creed 1 was kind of average but I grew up with the Rocky movies with Rocky fighting. As far as the fights between Rocky and Clubber being short, that was fine because there were 2 of them. The way I would rank the Rocky movies would be: 1. Rocky 3 - had more action than any of them and the Creed twist was shocking. Back then there was no internet or teasers, so nobody had no idea that Creed would train Rocky. Mr T was by far the baddest villain of them all. He made people want to hate him. Hulk Hogan was even it who Rocky fought for charity  . Mick even passed away, it all kinds of twists and turns.   2. Rocky 1 - the 1st one because of the storyline. He also went the distance with GOAT = Apollo, nobody ever done that.   3. Rocky 2 - had the best fight, so I can see how that would be #1 in many eyes. That was my mom's favorite because of Adrian coming out of the coma and telling Rocky to win and the fight was the best of the whole series.   4. Rocky 4 - This one was good but not great. They could have made this much better to where it could of been the best of the series. It was kind of unrealistic because no way in real life would Apollo get killed in 2 rounds. The fight between Apollo and Drago should have at least gone 7 or 8 rounds and just show Apollo taking a beating. 2 Rounds = no way. #2, they made Drago out to be like a superhero, Rocky already beat Clubber who was just as strong, so I didn't care for the storyline. The training scenes by Rocky and Drago and the music is what saved that one from being average.

      I hope we keep Toppin, I didn't think we would. Paul George went to Philly for 4 years/212 Mill, so now we have them to deal with as well besides Boston, NY, and Milwaukee. I thought we were better than Philly before the George deal, not sure now.

      A Write Up On Raekwon Davis' Potential Impact

      By TheNewGuy · Posted

      Thank you for your response and thank you for enlightening myself regarding Partridge. I recall his signing but didn't know much about him until I joined this forum and read several of your posts speaking highly of him. Thank you!  I have researched him since then and have to agree with you, it is likely that his fingerprints were on this signing.    Davis' contract is such that there is no guaranteed money in his 2nd year, with a cap savings of nearly 6.5 million, so there is an out if needed. https://overthecap.com/player/raekwon-davis/8796    I have to think that his main responsibility is as Grover's back up...we all saw how much he was missed last season. Though, this is where Partridge comes in, there may be additional duties. One thing that struck me was when Partridge said (paraphrased) "that he could get Grover some more sacks.". Does that mean he plans to alter the DL scheme, and if so, could the same benefit apply to Davis? Not to mention @Douzer's thoughts of using both Davis and Grover on 3rd and short plus goal line situations...like you said, I am looking forward to watching it play out as well.
