This delay is killing the NFL right now. They are going to be losing east coast viewers like crazy at halftime.

Ray Lewis thinks this is a conspiracy. Clearly the NFL changed the weather system to throw the east coast Ravens off their game.
Also, is Dungy drunk? |

I feel like this is an old school wrestling match and we're gonna see brass knuckles come out when the ref turns his back.

It's early but I didn't understand why the Broncos defense was rated so highly, even when Von Miller is back. Pretty mediocre across the board as far as I can tell

Good drive from the Ravens. The Broncos are going to have serious problems the first six weeks. Without Miller's pass rush, the defense is very, very, very below average. Flacco looks like Tom Brady. (OK, a Tom Brady that makes horrible decisions with the football, can't read a third down to save his life despite having 45 minutes to throw the ball and even attempted to give Denver a pick six on a play where there was no pressure) The point is, when it looks that easy for him, it's going to be an ugly six weeks. The offense better be ready.

My feelings on Flacco are well known and I fully understand if anyone disagrees with me.
But the last pass is what drives me crazy with QB's. That was not a difficult pass. It was easy. one on one coverage, no pressure at all, WR runs a great route and gets open. . . if the ball is where 75% of NFL QB's put it, Jacoby Jones is still running. Instead, he has to turn his body 180 degrees and catches the ball behind him for a nine yard gain. That play design by the coach and the other 10 guys on the field was 70+ yards. Flacco turned it into 9. I know the narrative will be he's playing great right now and he will likely have a monster game tonight. But I think you'll find the Denver D without Miller (and certainly without Champ) will be ripe for the taking by anyone. Missing passes like that kills offenses. The highest paid QB in the league should hit the guy on the run there. |

Flacco's making me wish I started him in fantasy right now. Which says more for the Denver D than for Flacco.

Wow. What a turn of events. Until then the Denver D had looked slow and Manning looked rusty. Ball game is on.

Heh, I have him.
...on my bench today. Pity. Though with any luck, I'll find a sucker who'll overpay in trade for him now. Last edited by Coffee Warlord : 09-05-2013 at 09:26 PM. |

Last year, I really thought Julius Thomas would break out in a huge way. He always looked good at training camp, ran good routes and had a ton of athleticism. I thought Manning would turn him into something special.
The Broncos instead brought in multiple tight ends and Thomas sat the bench. Honestly, I thought it was over for the kid. I thought if Manning couldn't turn him into something, nobody would. Fast forward to this season, I saw he won the starting job and I shrugged my shoulders. I figured with Welker there, the TE would be taken out of the offense and Thomas might get a catch or two a game. One game does not make a career, but this is what I thought we could see last year when I actually drafted this kid in the later rounds for all my fantasy teams. Go figure. |

Started Thomas in a fanduel league; that is paying dividends so far. Might turn my 2 dollar bet into 50.
In other news, has Ray Rice lost a step or something? What is the deal with the Ravens pretty much refusing to use him? Edit: Nevermind, I guess he has 12 touches.. Just seems like he isn't being featured enough, given their shitty receiver situation.

Well that was an ugly drive.
Julius Thomas is sitting on someone's bench in our league. I have a feeling everyone rushes to grab him, but I don't see him keeping this up. Welker, Decker, DThomas. Too many weapons for Julius to get a lot of touches long term. But he does remind me of a young Antonio Gates with his raw athleticism. |
