AFC Divisional Weekend: Denver Broncos @ New England Patriots

[z Revis]

I want to sit here and say Denver has no chance and it's going to be like last game, but with the Broncos, forget everything you know.

I'm just going to sit back and hope for a good game.

All that did was piss him off and then he proceeded to destroy Denver afterward.

I'll make sure to requote this when neither of those happen.

Anyone should know by now that guarantees haven't been flying very far this year. Especially with this Broncos team, you never know what is going to happen.

I forgot to quote but saying covering the deep ball is dangerous. Denver's bread and butter is the run game, and they are good at it.

You have to try to anticipate and find a strategy to stop the run without overcommiting like Pittsburg did.

You would think that people would learn that no Playoff game is a given. Upsets like these happen every year. Remember 2 hours ago?

I'll go Broncos 31 Patriots 30

So what bizarre injuries will set back New England during the week? Denver seems to play better against teams facing injuries in key positions.

Exactly... playing the deep ball and forcing the short to intermediate throw would play right into the hands of the Broncos strength. Tebow Time this year was all about the final 3-4 minutes of a game and teams playing Bend Don't Break and Prevent D. IMO it doesn't sound like a good idea to force him to throw short or develop any kind of rhythm or allow McGahee to get his either because you're over compensating after today's game.

What the Steelers and the past 3 teams did in terms of basically calling out John Fox's play calling by stacking 8 and sometimes 9 in the box is the true problem. You gotta keep pressure up front... but not at the expense of getting exploited if you guess wrong.



My final prediction? If there was a team that the Broncos offense would like to see, it'd be the New England Patriots. They will get their chance. In fact I think they match up across the board even better this week than they did vs. the Steelers in actuality.

Secret #1
Bill Belichick is the devil.

Secret #2
I've seen a copy of Tewbow's contract and there's fine print.
*Tebow magic not valid on Saturdays or Dec. 21st through Jan. 4th.

Secret #3
The Patriots just hired Josh McDaniels back. He's delivered a sample of Tebow's DNA to Belichick. Josh isn't really that bad of a coach. That was just the plan all along. Bill knew he'd need it one day.

Patriots 43-20
