[quote=Ruhskins;763488]Man, two dropped balls by the Colts' receivers. Throw on top of that two picks thrown by Manning...not a good combination for Indy.[/quote]

SD owns IND for some reason. Rivers will be the MVP this year

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

My SB pick of the Falcons isn't looking too bad right now, I've been really impressed with how the team has grown since the Petrino disaster

Weiss has done a nice job with Matt Cassel in KC, glad I drafted him in one of my leagues. He's been a nice player

Freaking Suisham!

And how about Steve Johnson's post game comments? Woah!

Highlight of the day though was Andre Johnson doing to Cortland Finnegan what a lot of guys have wanted to do

I had GB and Ind in the SB.. Still a chance

AJ and CF fight was pretty funny actually, What did Steve Johnson say? I saw him drop that TD..

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

Huge non-call on that pick-6 against the Colts. That was pass interference.

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

That was a pretty great fight between AJ and CF. I like Finnegan as a db but I know I'm not the only one who doesn't like his mouth. If your team is getting trashed 17-0 then you need to stfu by the way. I don't think Johnson should even apologize for what he did. If there is one guy in this league who everybody knows is one of the nicest guys out there it's AJ.

Can someone explain why Josh McDaniels still has a job? More spying, Brady Quinn for Peyton Hillis?? Tim Tebow??? No Culter and Marshall?? losing to the Rams at home and getting crushed by the Raiders??

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

He has a patient owner, and a built in need for 1 more year with Tebow. The pressure will be immense next year for Tebow to become a superstar and McD to prove himself.

That said, the Broncos fanbase is definitely unaccustomed to any thing near this type of losing streak, and while they don't like it, their owner has a lot of earned goodwill, so they aren't riding his back quite as much as we did last year.

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

I am still scratching my head as to how the Bears keep winning, when we played them they seriously looked lost more so then us.

Because Pat Bowlen, the Broncos owner, is still paying Shanahan. To fire McDaniels is to pay big money to two guys who are no longer coaching the team.

No. The combination of losses and "Spygate II" will never be overcome. Time to move on after this season.
2461 Votes, or 85.00 %

Yes. If the Broncos can finish the season close to .500, fans will give McDaniels another chance.

Well you can't really judge him for Tim Tebow yet, and the Rams and Raiders are both solid teams this year. Also, Kyle Orton is having a monster year, and they got a few first rounders for Cutler, so I don't fault him for that at all. Brady Quinn for Peyton Hillis is a huge, huge fail, as is losing 16 of 21 games. That alone should get him fired.

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

Funny how McDaniel claims that the illegal taping was the independent action of a single individual when that individual (Steve Scarnecchia) was on Belicheat's video staff when violations were committed there. Not defending New England, but how can Goodell not take away at least one Broncos draft choice when he docked the Pats a 1st rounder for their Spygate?

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

I think Bowlen would like to be patient with him, but McDaniels sure is doing his best to get fired.

Re: Around the NFL (week 12)
 

an 8 and 8 season is probably the best they can do, but it still may not be enough to keep McDaniel's job.
