[Happy2BeHere]

the season is officially underway!!

[Happy2BeHere]

I really wish the chat was open during other games not just colts games...but only for like Thursday Night, Monday Night, Sunday Night football...not during all the other games.

Now that Peyton is gone I will not root for denver against an NFC team.  Doesn't make sense as a colts fan

I cant turn it off like that.....I'd obviously root for the Colts over Denver but I have always liked Denver going back to when Elway was playing......I root for the raiders, too

 

I understand what you're saying, though

[Happy2BeHere]

turnover

[oldunclemark]

   Their rookie RB fumbles his first carry....wow

[2006Coltsbestever]

Fumble, Panthers ball!

I said basically the same thing...I mean you want every AFC team to lose because it just helps the seeding for the Colts...and that's obvious so I am with you. There are though the awkward times when you have to cheer for an AFC team against...say the Cowboys

Not a way to start your career for sure.

[oldunclemark]

  Love the way Denver plays in defense..that style....

...but they better get tio Cam with Benjamin on the field

feels good to watcha real game..the offseason seems so long

[oldunclemark]

Carolina's O-line is handling Denver early

[jvan1973]

Cam to Benjamin.  TD

[oldunclemark]

   That was really stupid taunting....come on refs, let that go

[2006Coltsbestever]

Cam to Benjamin for the 20 Yard TD, that was easy! 7-0 already Panthers. I say bring Peyton in  

[Happy2BeHere]

I don't think Denver is going to win more than 9 games this year. I get that the defense is "stellar" (or at least supposed to be) but I just don't know that they can get the offensive plays needed to stay ahead game after game.

[Bluefire4]

If they had Kelvin last year they would have won. He's the big time receiver Cam needed under pressure.

[Moose Of Woe]

That.... "rendition" of the national anthem made my ears bleed. Good lord what a butchery.

[oldunclemark]

Look at Denver playing the fullback....change from last year

I don't now....Siemian looks good

[Moose Of Woe]

Both teams are looking pretty good, fumble aside.

 

Edit: And that lol...

[oldunclemark]

wow..Thomas Davis.....great pick..stopped the drive again

[2006Coltsbestever]

LOL, Picked off by the Panthers D.Lineman! Nice pass.

I agree.....the offenses have more than they did in February

[BPindy]

Well, I guess that answers the question about the Broncos offense

[oldunclemark]

Cam  is getting a lot of time

[cjwhiskers]

Cam complaining already, was a fair hit. 

[oldunclemark]

This is real hitting...going on....2 elite defenses

[BPindy]

Wow not many people can knock Tolbert back like that....that was impressive

[2006Coltsbestever]

Nice stop by Denver, Panthers have to Punt to start the 2nd Qtr. 7-0 after 1.

[Bluefire4]

That was an incredible tackle by Stewart. Jesus Christ!

[oldunclemark]

Siemian always has the same blank look on his face..like Eli manning

[Bluefire4]

Someone could have told me the Panthers run defense was going to play like this. I left CJ on the bench on one of my fantasy teams!

[oldunclemark]

   1st career carry for a TD...was that an audible.....did Siemian check into that play?

[Moose Of Woe]

Denver has driven deep on every possession so far. The offense looks like it might actually have a pulse this year. The backs are running with purpose and duck season is over. (No sign of the dropsies, either.)

 

Siemian has a pretty solid arm... he rifled one right in there on that drive.

 

 

[BPindy]

Andddd the touchdown that helps absolutely no one in fantasy lol

These are ALWAYS horrible. If there's anything in that regard that needs to be eliminated from football it's the people who suck at doing it.

 

Also if I'm taking a stand about something I don't want Brandon Marshall to be the first guy to respond lol! Maybe Braylon Edwards will be next. 

[cjwhiskers]

I have Sanders and McManus in a couple of leagues tonight. That INT was unfortunate last drive but at least it looks like Siemian likes Sanders. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

LOL, #32 to the house. The Panthers run Defense has been awful so far. 7-7

[Bluefire4]

For all the hype Devontae Booker got, I would have expected the fullback to fumble on his first carry and for Booker to have a 28 yard touchdown on his first carry.
