Agree!!!!! I am tired of this debate. Manning didn't lose that game yesterday, the offensive line did. They were completely dominated.I think players should get credit for what they accomplished and Manning has accomplished more in football than 99% of all players.friendfromlowry;1575658 wrote:Either way, the Manning legacy debate is dumb. Literally arguing over whether he's really, really great. Or just really great.

Its the Super Bowl, hell yeah ya watch the whole thing!!!!Fly4Fun;1575666 wrote:So who all watched the whole game or stopped after a certain point? I stopped watching after the 2nd half KO return for a TD. At that point the game was over and it wasn't very compelling/competitive.
I know it's the last game of the football season... but it just wasn't very entertaining.
I thought that the broncos may have had a chance until seattle got into the 30's. Even thought the KO return for a TD it would still be OK as it only took 12 seconds and they had the whole half.
Goes to show...if you have a defense who can get into the face of the QB< no matter how great, you give yourself a great chance at winning the game. The times that PM did get some time, he drove them.
I was hoping PM would win. I think this had more to do with Seattle defense than PM not playing great

That served its purpose though. CC's down to having negative reps now. Awesome!friendfromlowry;1575639 wrote:Lol, a thread dominated by Tiernan and ccrunner. Glad I didn't bother checking into it during the game.

I am just going to say it. The last 3 SBs have proven you don't need an ELITE qb to win it all.
Don't confuse "non-elite QB" with "incompetent QB" though.

Its harder to keep an elite defense together though IMO. 2000 Ravens, 85 Bears, 04 Bucs, 07 NY Giants... they were good after said run, but nothing near the elite level they were in that yr. Offenses can keep churning consistently.Automatik;1575797 wrote:Killer defense and win the TO margin regularly.

I can agree with this, but as far as my post goes, I am not saying you need an all time great defense to win. Ravens D was solid enough last year, so was the Giants D 2 years ago. Was the 07 giants even a top 5 defense that season? They did have a hell of a pass rush.Commander of Awesome;1575801 wrote:Its harder to keep an elite defense together though IMO. 2000 Ravens, 85 Bears, 04 Bucs, 07 NY Giants... they were good after said run, but nothing near the elite level they were in that yr.

Only one prognosticator on here picked the romp correctly and we all know who that was. With that same in-depth sooth-sayer analysis I'm calling the 2014 Cleveburgh Clowns record right here and now...mark it down like_that, S&L, COA and the rest of the Clownie's Mafia...
6 - 10 and last place in the division again.

Idk what to make of their schedule honestly. Seems pretty damn easy going off this year, and if they get the right QB and maybe a few other weapons who knows. Plus being in the AFC helps, but we'll seeTiernan;1575824 wrote:Only one prognosticator on here picked the romp correctly and we all know who that was.

The Giants defense was garbage in 2011 until the playoffs started. Close to bottom 5 in points and yardage.like_that;1575806 wrote:I can agree with this, but as far as my post goes, I am not saying you need an all time great defense to win.

2006 Indy was a top 5 offense and beat Chicago who was a top 5 defenseAutomatik;1575797 wrote:Killer defense and win the TO margin regularly.

2010 Gb was 9th on offense and beat Pittsburgh was #2 defensive.
Its all about balance. Because both Indy and GB had very good defenses those years.

That was more to express my personal preference....I'm a defense guy. It's been proven that you can ride a dominant D with a serviceable offense to the SB.
An interesting stat I heard after the game.... the season passing leader has never won the SB.

It all comes down to what is more easily to replicate play after play after play after play, and game after game. ALot more variable, alot more things have to go right, when you rely on passing the ball than relying on a strong defense. Did the extra week of prep help the defense in watching tape and tendancies? Running attacks are more like, this is what we are doing, stop it. Passing by nature is more finesse and timing and if one part of it gets derailed it can be tough and that is what happened to that passing attack...again.

Tiernan posted something, but I blocked him so I don't have to read it. You guys should try it. But let me guess, he posted at 5:30am so it's something about being a drunk idiot?
