Actually, I think Manning hates the soft D. He actually goes down the seams quite a bit even against soft Ds. Brady is much more of a dink and dunker unless he is going to Llyod. The Broncos have played slightly above average compared to the rest of the AFC but thats a middling team overall in the NFL. They did go Steelers, Falcons, Texans, Patriots, Raiders. I would say 4/10 teams in the NFL. Once the calendar turns to November, Denver has an easy looking schedule currently. That will determine their season (copout by me)
I agree I was speaking of the teams that have gotten ahead of the Broncos this year. They would play tight and Manning hasn't sustained drives. In the fourth down by 3 or more scores they would play soft and he has ate them up. I agree in the prior years that you are correct with the seams. That is what concerns me is that most of the yardage and scoring have come against fourth quarter soft D.
Mark Sanchez is top ten in "YAC EPA: Clutch-weighted expected points added (lost) on yards after the catch above/below expectation." What does that even mean? I don't understand QBR, except it's a way for ESPN to promote themselves. Give me regular QB rating plus other stats. Everything will tell you Sanchez is playing like a below average QB this season
There are no "monster games" for 2-3 teams, just a possible prevention of going 2-4 and back down the Pre-Tebow toilet that the Broncos have been in for 6 years.........
Right because all of Tebow's comeback wins we hear so much about were all Tebow. Give me a fucking break.
None of the estimated 13 Tebow fans on this forum has claimed that Tebow singlehandedly won games. YOU, however, refuse to give him any credit for those wins.
Please keep your canned Teboi responses to the Teboi forum. I have seen numerous people here and elsewhere site the Broncos 2-6 start and 8-8 finish as a direct credit to Tim fucking Tebow. When you ask them about the defense keeping them in games they say it's because Tebow inspired them. It's all Tebow. All he does is win. I've heard it a hundred times. You have no idea what I've given credit to Tebow for.
Why don't you keep YOUR canned responses there, LoveYouLongTime? Your claim that the starting QB deserves no credit for a team's wins is patently absurd. The starting QB gets the blame for the losses and the kudos for the wins. QBs of losing teams get shipped off after a few years as do losing coaches; the entire team doesn't get shipped off. It takes a whole team working together to win, and a QB can most certainly elevate the play of the whole team, especially when his teammates see him playing all out and not just padding his stats. You bet your ass that the 12 or 13 Tebow fans on this site will speak out when the Broncs new QB is given all the credit for the wins and no blame for the losses. Personally I don't like the hypocritical double standard. Maybe it's true that I don't know what credit you give to Tebow, but based on this thread it can't be much. Since you think you know ME so well, quote one fucking post where I gave all the credit to Tebow.
