2014 NFL: WEEK SIXTEEN

Peyton throws a pick six to probably clinch the game for Cincinnati and Tirico & Gruden dislocate every joint in their bodies contorting themselves into blaming the receiver instead of Manning. Never mind that the guy was never open, that Peyton threw while backpedaling despite no pass pressure, and that Peyton put nothing on the ball. No, despite all that, the pick was in no way Peyton's fault.

Wow, I thought yesterday's Steeler game had the worst refs ever - I turn on tonight's game and see one of the most atrocious calls possible.

What call(s) are you referring to?

Yeah Gruden always sucks the QB dick when he calls a game and really sucks it good when it's one of the golden QBs of the league but no one sucks a QB's dick like Joe fucking Theismann he was porn star level good at it.

What this showed me, and I'm sure I'm way behind the curve on this, is that Peyton no longer has a fastball. Problem is, he thinks he does. The ball that Jones picked off is a great example of that. Peyton thought he had the arm to get the ball there and, well, he doesn't.

My dad is a big Manning fan, even switched teams he rooted for when he went to Denver.  I told him last night to enjoy watching Manning because I don't think he will be watching him much longer.  Manning doesn't seem like the type that would hang around if he is not performing at his usual high level, and the last half season he has had more bad games than good.  Don't get me wrong, current-level Manning is still better than 90% of the QBs in the league, I'd take him in a heartbeat for the Bills, but I don't think when Manning watches the tape he will be satisfied with his current abilities.  I guess we will see.  I'm not sure if it is injuries catching up to him or just getting old, but he doesn't have the precision and zip he did even earlier this year.

The first few games of his first year and Denver, that looked like the case, but then he bounced back (or adjusted) but the back half of this season, he's been merely a good starting QB, and not Peyton Goddamn Manning.  It just kinda happened as this year wore on, he started the year looking still great (and Denver looked like the team to beat with that revamped defense) but gradually he's looked worse and worse.

 

I really hope it's not his neck again.
