Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

We could. But so could you. I was just responding to the comment that we could lose to Cincy.
I think Baltimore should be the team both Pats and Broncos fans fear the most, even more so than one another's respective teams. Their defense is better than last year's and neither team matches up well against them.
I am definitely rooting against them in their final games as I hope they do not make the playoffs.
Oh, i agree on the bottom part, would prefer not to see them again and hope they miss out on the playoffs.
I'd say they give NE more problems than us but for whatever reason it seems Brady struggles with them, i dont know why though.
Indy/Cin/Bal could beat us, it's single elimination, you dont have to be better in a best of 7, just better that day.

They always play us tough. Though we did beat them the year we went to the SB. Brady & Belichick have always spoke highly of Ed Reed. I think he had a lot to do with their success against us. Will be interesting to see how they do without him and Ray Lewis when we play them in Baltimore.
lol @ the Colts. Definitely would love if NE played them.

It will, Daryl Smith has been a huge upgrade over Ray Lewis.
They definately seem to give you guys problems, not sure how much of it was because Reed/Lewis were so smart and knew a lot about Brady, etc.
Thought for sure NE may get him when Reed was cut.
On the Colts, thats only because im a Luck homer lol.
whens the last time the pats won one without filming the other teams signals and making adjustments off them?
ohh ya.... never
We went to TWO superbowls after that incident. Not to mention finished the 2007 regular season undefeated. When was the last time the BROcos did either of those??? lolololol
Premise: Peyton Manning just never had the defense to support him like Tom Brady did.

Conclusion: The premise is flawed
Brady > Manning
Exactly!
For years, all I heard from Colts' fans and Manning-apologists was that NE's superior Defense was the difference, and that Brady wasn't worthy enough to carry Manning's jock.
Sunday's game proved once and for all that Manning's stats/performance drop off significantly
1. In the cold,
2. In the wind,
3. at Gillette,
4. Vs Brady and the Patriots,
5. In big games.
Making excuses is weak. We lost why feed into there regular season celebration, tip your cap give them there moment to flex and act like they won something bro.
We both know Denver can win out, get the #1 seed and will have DRC, Champ, Rahim (3 of our 4 starters in the secondary) and Julius Thomas will be back and a huge mismatch for the Pats.
One game at time buddy these chumps will disappear.
Like most Colts' fans before you, you forget that your team is QBed by a guy who simply struggles outdoors, in January, in the elements in big, important games!
Sophia, when you are playing with a lead you play differently than when you play from behind. If our D hadn't scored the TD and gotten us a short field, we likely would have played differently. But that wasn't the case. We were up 24 points at the half.
Feel free to look through the annals of history, and check the win-loss record of teams that ended games with 280 yards rushing. lol
A series of unfortunate events combined with offensive miscues lead to a loss in that game.
Hindsight is always 20/20. If that ball doesn't hit carter, and we kick a FG and win, the talk would be about how dominant our run game was.
Nope...the talk will forever be how Manning was unable to perform up to his averages that night, while Brady's game was, for the most part, unaffected by the hellacious elements!
The insecurities you Pats fans have are laughable.....
By far the most hyper sensitive and insecure fan base ever.
So maybe Brady is better than Manning and maybe Manning is better than Brady, either way its debatable.....one thing is for certain though- they are both top QBs in the leagues history. To take such offense when people have the "nerve" to rank one great over another great is sooooo absurd.

1. Those are yards allowed stats, only football ignorant retards use that as a Defensive gauge.
2. Manning played in a Dome most of his career, so his "outdoor" struggles are more related to playing away games in the playoffs, which teams lose 69% of the time regardless of the weather. (once again, only football ignorant retards make this argument)
3. Manning plays the Patriots Defense, not Brady (again, football ignorant retards)
4. Brady and the Patriots have done nothing BUT lose big games the last decade, so your argument applies to Brady and the Cheatriots.
Nope...the talk will forever be how Manning was unable to perform up to his averages that night, while Brady's game was, for the most part, unaffected by the hellacious elements!
That's not even debatable.
Debatable: Would the Cheatriots have won ANY SuperBowls without "The Tuck Rule" and Cheating?
I take the side of "No".
Oh, and New England does have some pretty god-awful weather. Why would anyone wanna live there. Buncha mush-mouthed jabber-mouths too. What an irritating accent. Probably the most irritating sounding English accent known to man. Every time I hear that "HOPPA!!!!!!" DVR commercial I wanna jab my eardrums with a red hot poker.

We play and practice outdoors in the cold and denver scored 31 in horrible conditions so keep blamimg the Qb but scoring 31 is not a problem allowing 34 and 4 turnovers is!
Brace yourselves guys. Cheatriots fans are having another Nerdgasam as we speak right now. They will be descending on us to gloat about their triumphant victory over the mighty Texans
Their Defense looks awful, they have yet another game where they can't seem to play for four quarters, and had nary a single penalty called on them all game.

Yeah, keep the hope alive suckers!
HAHAHA....They beat the Broncs, tho! How bad are they, then?
Never mind.....we saw the answer to that question last week!
Better stay away from windows above the first floor, today, guys! Could be a long afternoon for ya all.
