YoloinOhio Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 @ESPNStatsInfo: Peyton Manning & Tom Brady were both 4-0 with 14 passing touchdowns in October. They ranked 1 and 2 (respectively) in Total QBR in October.
filthymcnasty08 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I hope Peyton puts on a clinic today….an absolute clinic.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Broncos-Patriots: It's snowing heavily in Foxboro, wind gusts to be 40 mph
TheFunPolice Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Huge advantage for New England* This season has pretty much broken me when it comes to the Patriots* After that tease at the start of the year they look unbeatable and unstoppable again. They will always be good, they will always win, and they will always crush dreams. lol
YoloinOhio Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 This game is all about the QBs but Denver has the better D IMO and it may come down to that.
YoloinOhio Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 Broncos-Patriots: It's snowing heavily in Foxboro, wind gusts to be 40 mph i normally love snow games but I think that gives NE the edge - crap.
Deranged Rhino Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 i normally love snow games but I think that gives NE the edge - crap. Disagree. I think it helps the team with the better defense and that's definitely Denver.
YoloinOhio Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 Disagree. I think it helps the team with the better defense and that's definitely Denver. i hope you're right and I agree, their D is nasty
YoloinOhio Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 SB Nation NFL @SBNationNFL 9m9 minutes ago Winter is coming. RT @SBNationGIF: Sad Brady in snow. NFLonCBS @NFLonCBS 9m9 minutes ago Bring out the snow plows!
26CornerBlitz Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Snow-vember! The snow came pouring down Sunday morning in Foxborough, completely blanketing the site of Manning-Brady XVI. The precipitation is expected to dissipate, though winds will continue to be a factor.
MattM Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Why does it feel like the regular season meetings between these two are always in Foxboro--anyone have any insight into that? They typically play each other (here and in Indy when Manning played for them) as first place teams playing first place teams in the conference, so you'd think that Manning would get Brady at home every now and then, but to my recollection at least (too lazy to google it) it always seems like they're playing at New England*.....
The Jokeman Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I hope Peyton puts on a clinic today….an absolute clinic. All that matters is the Patriots lose but for good measure if something happened to hurt the Broncos in their future matchup against the Bills even better.

My understanding is that it goes in 3 year cycles and this is year 3. Should Denver and New England finish in the same spot in their respective divisions the next three times that happens will be in Denver. Notice we are in Indy this year?
bbb Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Broncos-Patriots: It's snowing heavily in Foxboro, wind gusts to be 40 mph Belichick ordered this up because Peyton is not good in snow!
MrLocke Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Anyone complaining about the officiating hasn't seen Denver play the last couple of seasons. There games make WWE look respectable. There receivers get away with offensive pass interference just about every pass play. Then there was this play against SD. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/10/broncos-chargers-fumble-replay-mike-carey-overturn-thursday-night

Should Denver and New England finish in the same spot in their respective divisions the next three times that happens will be in Denver. Notice we are in Indy this year? Looking at this on Wikipedia, that seems correct, but how asinine that is as a general rule. It also means that the Cheats* have gotten Manning at home three years in a row with the Broncos and 5 or 6 out of the last 8 or 9 against the Colts....
papazoid Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 In games where the temperature is below 40 degrees, Peyton Manning's record is 8-12 with 32 touchdowns to 25 interceptions. put an asterisk next to his accomplishments as playing indoors is a huge career stat advantage over QB's like Jim Kelly & tom brady.

Pneumonic Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 Manning is awesome when everything is going his way (the weather, no pressure, great weapons at his disposal). When he doesn't have these, he's not so awesome. Brady, OTOH, has proven time and time again, that he is awesome no matter the conditions facing him. That's what separates the two.
