Around the league divisional weekend

On a side note this is now 3 consecutive years where we've either beat or swept a participant in the NFC or AFC championship.

We've played the super bowl champion for the past 7 years

Looks like Baltimore is the SB winner this year. :laughing-

or atlanta..

No it doesn't. You are again forgetting that Brady was backed by a top 5 PPG defense and Manning was not. Defense reigns supreme in the playoffs. Very few exceptions.

Peyton Manning loses in the playoffs

Tenn 16-19...19/42 227 yrds 0 touchdowns
@ Mia 17-23... 17/32 194 yds 1 touchdown
@ NYJ 0-41... 14/31 137 yards 2 interceptions
@ NE 14-24... 23/47 237 yards 1 TD 4 Interceptions
@ NE 3-20... 27/42 238 yards 1 Interceptions
Pitt 18-21... 22/38 290 yards 1 touchdown
Super bowl run... 97/153 3 touchdowns 7 interceptions
San Diego... 24-28... 3 touchdowns 2 interceptions
San Diego 17-23... 1 touchdown
Superbowl... 17-31 331 yards 1 touchdown 1 int (looks like the offense scored a lot but as you remember when the Colts needed a touchdown Manning threw a pic 6).
NYJ 16-19... 18/26 225 yards 1 touchdown
Baltimore 35-38... 290 yards 3 touchdowns 3 T.O.

The only game I see where his defense let him down was the Denver game... except he played bad that game too and had a pic 6, a fumble with the lead, and threw an INT when the Broncos had the ball at midfield. These scores look like the defense came to play but Manning played poorly. People thought Manning didn't have a good defense but in the playoffs the defense would play well, similar to NE last year, by the way the 2nd worst defense of all time was in the superbowl thanks to a Tom Brady. Manning gets all the credit in the regular season but none of the blame during the postseason. The scores of the games he played in speak for themselves. He played poorly. The record and stats show it.

or atlanta..


Don't we normally beat the SB winner during the year? Since we lost to Atlanta, figured it be the Ravens.

or atlanta..

Tony Gonzales needs that ring. Or Ed Reed.

After this loss, the Texans need to go ahead and fire Kubiak and start trying to find Schaub's replacement. That guy isn't going to take them anywhere.

This isn't fantasy football. Who are their replacements? Who out on the street is better than Schaub? New England is just a better team. It doesn't matter who's coaching Houston.

I would take Tony Romo every day of the week before I would Schaub. Kubiak has used up his 9 lives. Time to move on from him and get some fresh blood in there. He's had ample time to get it done.

Kubiak's offense hasn't been the same since Kyle left... :)

You don't even listen to your own logic.

Answer this. I have QB A who has bad defense, who is going head to head with QB B with a very good defense. If QB A and QB B are exactly equal, who stands a better chance at winning? Which of these QBs will have to overcome more?

Kubiak's offense hasn't been the same since Kyle left... :)


Nonsense. Kyle was holding them back.


This isn't fantasy football. Who are their replacements? Who out on the street is better than Schaub? New England is just a better team. It doesn't matter who's coaching Houston.


I said start finding, not to flat out cut him. I mean finding his replacement in the draft.


Not sure I say NE is a better team. Just outplayed and out-coached today.
