      Like someone said earlier, it was strictly a "business decision".

        This ring for Peyton reminds me of Bill Walton getting a ring with the Celtics in '86. Former Superstar whose body is toast, still contributing to the team, but not someone who was going to win it for you.

        Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

        Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

          A decision that's gonna haunt him for some time. He better not go talking like a big shot when things go great for him again because everyone will bring that up.

            I think it's amazing we can believe Cam didn't dive for the ball because he was thinking about "business decision" but definitely at that moment did the Drew Brees injury pop in his mind.

              That's a great analogy!

                Here's my take on the Cam fumble. To me it looked as if he was going to go for it but saw the two Denver players land on it and assumed he had no shot so backed off only to realize to late the ball was still squirting around and then he did go for it but by that time it was moot. It was a split second decision and he choose wrong by assuming he didn't have a chance. You know what the say about assuming. I don't think Cam was being a bitch or not wanting to win at all costs. He just made a mistake.

                  Didn't Marshawn not say a damn thing last year and yet folks still ****ted on him for not speaking right after? Lol

                  Again, I'm not answering ANY questions right after a loss like this. That's the WORST time to interview someone.

                  Mind you, I'm speaking strictly in championship clinching games or even playoff elimination games. Not talking about regular season losses because let's be real: none of us give two ****s if they skip out on those.

                    I could believe that if the ball didn't squirt out again and go backwards. Cam then just half-assed went for that one.

                      You just fed all your detractors the ammo they so desperately wanted.
                      Pretty much in regards to your last point.

                      Hell, it probably confirmed what they thought all along: that he was a phoney and put up one helluva act for an entire year and that this is who he truly is. That whole "Give the ball to a kid after each TD" was nothing more than a PR ploy, to them.

                        I have never been a fan of Coach Ron Rivera, but his post game comments were very classy.

                          Quick rant.. I think it's really silly the media paints Cam as being immature for walking out of his final presser.. It's the biggest game at the top of his profession and he lost.. Should he be happy? Jumping around? I'm sure emotions are running high after the game especially with football being such a physical sport. There is no guarantee he'll be back in this position.. If Brady were to do that he'd be praised for showing enthusiasm and competitiveness.. It can't be a double standard. Too many times the media wants honesty so then when a player is honest, and angry he's looked down on for not being politically correct.. Anyways congrats Peyton.. Now come join the Titans front office and make the Titans great again!

                            Riverboat Ron always impresses me as a well spoken guy whose got a good handle on his team and is pretty classy.

                              I can't agree with this. Any QB would get just as much flak for putting on a press conference in the same manner that Cam did tonight. It's inexcusable when you want to be the face of the NFL and wants to be a star like he does. His image took a big hit tonight.

                                Ok I've calmed down...

                                Great game Bronco fans and congrats. Happy Peyton got him another...the defense was incredible...

                                Props to our defense who played an excellent game, especially Ealy...too many mistakes on offense for us to have a fighting chance.

                                The Cam fumble. This isn't the first time this has happened. 3rd by my count. Don't know if it's a lack of awareness or what. If it was a 'business decision', it's his body/career...but that was the game right there....
