Pittsburgh (+7) @ Denver (1-17-16)

[Moose Of Woe]

Um....slightly uncatchable?

[oldunclemark]

interference?    maybe so

[Narcosys]

It's not even catchable!

[Moose Of Woe]

Stop playing soft and leaving the middle open.

[nburgmei]

I feel like this game would be out of hand if Antonio Brown was present.

Their line isn't much better than the Colts. line.  

seems crazy but the colts line is not in the bottom 5.   its probably  close to middle of the pack if fully healthy and actually playing the best 5 guys, which for some reason doesn't happen as much as you would think

Why not just concentrate on one game at a time please.

 

The players need to concentrate on one game at a time.  There is no harm in the fans looking down the road a bit, though.

That pass was thrown up to the moon, IT WASN"T CATCHABLE!

 

And now the #1 defense is getting torched again.

 

Time for this game to be put away.

[Gramz]

[Moose Of Woe]

Honestly I'd take the sack.

They've got to close up late in the game like this...

Make Ben wait and try deep....you might get beat but hey, they're getting beat anyway

Yup. One Play. Don't Play stubborn please, we're both watching the same game here. 

Yeah,    you said he can't throw past 10 yards.   He has done that multiple times today.  Don't exaggerate,  please we are watching the same game

Yeah. Their only prayer at this point is to force PIT in to a fumble/INT and return it for a TD. I don't trust the offense to score a TD even if they started a drive from PIT's goal line.

[Fx Stryker]

 

Get the stop or the turnover Denver.

[oldunclemark]

They just need one big play...on eTD

[oldunclemark]

Those little kids have no idea where they are

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

surely you can show these kids at halftime or after the first qtr

Maybe some of them can play wideout?

[OffensivelyPC]

Please for the love of everything holy and sacred, someone make a meme out of the Patriots kid jumping around..

[buffalo34]

Ready for an epic defensive meltdown right here.

[buffalo34]

Way to leave him that open over the middle and get into FG range.

 

And for that, the FG will be blasted right down the middle.

The strongest arm in the world means squat when the receiver is going to drop it anyway.

 

Manning had some misses, but still a better option than Brock tonight.

 

I get that.  Like I said, it hasn't been all Manning or even mostly Manning.  I look back to the last game of the season when the team was struggling with Osweiler at QB.  The struggles really had nothing to do with Osweiler, and yet the team seemed to settle down and correct some of their errors when they switched over to Manning.  Maybe getting a QB in there whose passes can cut through the wind a bit better would help to get the team into a better rhythm.

[oldunclemark]

I don't understand the punt...wow

[WoolMagnet]

Did you see the flag football kids?

it figures the kid from NE was the only one jumpin around and not playing by the rules.

the old acorns really dont fall from the tree.

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

turn down the 52 yd attempt??????????????

Yeah you're right, he can throw it 10 yards. Just not accurately, or consistently. So basically the only things that matter. Denver can only score a td if Manning gets it at the 1 yard line. They can only score a fg if Manning gets it in the Steelers side of the field. Obviously youre not watching the same game. 

[SkyBane]

woof, that seems like a bad decision, net on that punt was what like, 15 yards? May as well just take another shot downfield at that point.

[oldunclemark]

Come on Peyton......one drive..one TD...even one FG..

Its his time

I guess not.   The one I'm watching has seen a ton of drops.    

[Gramz]

Okay done with all the negativity....   Here We Go....   Let's get this done.

I can see that. I don't think pulling Brock was the right thing to do because he didn't do anything to deserve being benched. His receivers and line caused 90% of Denver's problems against San Diego.

 

That being said, I don't think any QB in the league would have success with this offense given the talent/softness of the receivers and line. Not to mention the atrocious Kubiak system. Even the best QB's  in the league like Rodgers/Brady/Newton would struggle. Maybe Rodgers and Newton could bring something to the table with scrambling ability but I dunno.

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

great trick play by manning lol

15 yards in the air right there.
