Broncos appear to be in trouble

[oberliner]

Manning looks just awful. Can he turn this around?

1. Doubling down, huh? Lets see if your sports mojo can work twice...

[oberliner]

2. What do you think?

You like the Broncos to come back in this one?

[petronius]

6. I haven't been watching (no TV, plus I'm supposed to be working), but I always

admire a good comeback - so sure, I'm certain they can do it!

[lovemydog]

3. Heheh.

I can't predict. I just watch and love all the drama. Enjoy!

[oberliner]

4. Manning looks to have lost it

Just awful right now.

[Suich]

5. Was just thinking the same thing. n/t

[lovemydog]

9. Definitely.

He just couldn't throw it downfield for more than a few yards. We may have seen the last game of an all-time great.

7. Manning is the best quarterback for fantasy football but forget him past playoffs.

The guy just chokes when it matters. Although I wish they would make it to the superbowl, would love to watch him cry after the Seahawks hand him another superbowl almost.

8. Oh-ma-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA....... N/T

10. Maybe four

Or five years ago he would have staged a dramatic comeback

I seriously think we've probably seen the last game he will ever play

Kind of sad in a way. I really enjoyed hating the guy. But now I feel kind if sorry for him

[oberliner]

12. It was kind of sad

He was definitely a shell of his former self.

Although he has choked in the playoffs before.

13. Yeah I was reading an article

earlier where postgame he was asked about coming back for the next season.

Even without hearing his voice, I could imagine him sounding beaten, almost. Ambivalent. From where I sit, I could say all I wanted, "Oh, I would just retire". But then, I don't love playing football, either.

It must be torture for the guys who love playing the game to have to decide yes or no on that question.


I think Manning and Brady will go into football history as two of the greatest QBs ever.

Seeing the inevitable passing of the torch is sad.

But damn...it was a fun ride while it lasted, wasn't it?

[Brigid]

11. Go Colts!

[Fearless]

14. Looked like he was suffering from dead arm

How many passes over 10 yards did he even throw? Just look at the 2min drill. All short passes and straight up the middle. He completely gave up.

[oberliner]

15. Yeah something like that

It was not the Peyton Manning I thought would show up. Guess he just can't sling it like he used to. He wasn't even close on some of those deep tries.

[Fearless]

16. True.

[kwassa]

17. Manning has been hiding an injured quad for the past few games.

He should have been replaced by backup, but who replaces Manning?
