~ N/S Patriots 5 1/2 Point Favorites at Denver ~ (1 Viewer)

[mrperrino]

Enough already.

The Chicago Bears shot themselves in the butt in regulation with the stupid play to stop the clock and the fumble in overtime inside field goal range. Idiots adding fuel to the Tim Tebow fire.

Tebow should have thanked Lovey Smith for not telling his team to run out the clock and keeping two hands on the ball. God had nothing to do with it.

I think it's time Tim Tebow showed he could keep up with Tom Brady and the Patriots. I also think it's time evil genius Bill Belichick spent a few extra minutes in front of the cauldron cooking up something special for Mr. Tim Tebow. Sean Payton can take notice, in case the Saints meet the Broncos in the Super Bowl? LOL Imagine the media...Brees v Tebow. Saints would be the underdog in the game. Only Brees wins in the final 1:49 of the game ala Tebow.

That Broncos offense stinks if the edge guys maintain a little discipline and defensive backs press the receivers rather than dropping back like Chicago did in the 4th quarter and overtime. The Broncos defense is very good but probably not ready for the no-huddle and Gronkowski. Jimmy Graham, take notice.

It's been a while since I felt as passionate about wanting the Patriots to crush an opponent convincingly like I do right now. Please join me.

Believe it or not, Denver matches up really well with NE....this line, especially considering Brady has never done well in Denver, is kind of expected.

Chicago was a much worse matchup for Denver than NE is.

you like a 5.5 point road favorite, huh?
i won't bore you with how very seldom you would cash that bet, but the internet is always here to help you

With the Pats terrible pass defense you would think so.

However, the last QB the Bronco's faced with a pulse was the Lions who just completely destroyed them.

This win streak is nice but here is a list of the QB's they have played during this streak.

Matt Moore
Mathew Stafford
Carson Palmer
Tyler Palko
Mark Sanchez
Phillip Rivers
Christian Ponder
Caleb Hanie

Only one of those guys are in the top 10 QB rating and that is Stafford at #8. Four of the QBs they faced are in the bottom 10. The other three middle of the road (Sanchez, Rivers, Moore).

I would be inclined to bet on Denver. Not that I think they would win or that they are better... but 5.5 points at home is a lot.... especially when you consider that New England was a 21 point favorite at home against the Colts.... and won that game only by 7 points.

Their D stinks and Denver's defense and running game is good enough to keep this game close.

i'm insulated from the tebow overload since i get 99.5% of my sports news from saintsreport. all i have to do is not read the tebow threads. i'm pulling for the broncos.

 

[longtime lurker]

41-16 Pats....been waiting for the tebows to face a decent offense.

If God loved Tebow so much he would have made him Drew Brees.

I was hating the Tebow stuff until the Broncos caused the Bears to go into a meltdown. I'm happy with what ever the Broncos do as long as they don't play the Saints.

What happens if Denver wins?? Do all you naysayers come back on this thread and come up with an excuse or say you were wrong??? Just asking, because many on here said we would destroy the Rams too, me included.

By the way, when you watch the play where Barber went out of bounds, you can see that he was trying to get the ground first, but was pushed out of bounds. Denver won that game by TAKING it from Chicago....The Bears GAVE them nothing.

Yeah, I don't think Denver will be able to keep it close to the 4th quarter to have a chance at another comeback. That's the danger of this style of play - you have to be able to put teams away in this league, and not live on the edge every week.
