October 21, 201312 yr There has never and likely will never be a guy like Peyton.Jim Kelly says hi. . . . Kelly was great, but he wasn't close to the level Peyton lives on. I mean, Manning has 3 seasons (not counting this one) of higher qb ratings than Kelly's career best (and a 4th that was only .2 behind it) and a 96.7 to 84.4 career rating advantage. His career completion percentage is 5.4 points higher, and then you can get into the counting stats, where he is rapidly mowing down everyone not named Favre. Jim Kelly was a forerunner to Peyton in terms of running an offense, but he never did it nearly as well as Manning does.Give him the pansy defensive rules and he might, oh yeah he played outdoors in cold weather too, unlike manning.After our previous discussion, I thought you were a homer. Now I think you are a lunatic.

October 21, 201312 yr Yup - I was terribly wrong REDSKINS WILL BE .500 AFTER WEEK 11!!! SUPER BOWL!!!
October 21, 201312 yr Am I the only one who is tired of the Geno Smith GOAT nuthugging? I was ready for Greg Gumble to have an orgasm during one of his catches with how bad it got. Every interception he throws is categorized as a "rookie mistake" and they were calling simple passes of his "beautiful" and "breath taking" with one of them saying we are "seeing the progression of a great NFL quaterback".
October 21, 201312 yr The Jets are doing with Geno what they did with Sanchez in 2009 and 2010--build a strong defense, develop a solid running game, and have receivers just good enough to catch a few passes to win the game. Now Geno's arm is stronger than Sanchez's so he can go downfield more, but the blueprint for their rookie seasons feels the same to me. So expect the Jets to forget how to build around the guy in 2015 and him becoming a shell of himself in 2016.

Now I think you are a lunatic. No he's just a troll of laughable quality Here's the thing, you said there had never been a QB who calculated stuff in his head like that, and the K-gun offense was extremely similar, and make those USFL years into NFL years, and Kelly's higher on the charts. Now take the defensive rules that have softened up considerably, and an argument can be made. Peyton is better, but this talk that there has never been a Qb like him is hyperbolic to the extreme. In days past, most qb's would call their own plays, but eras have a way of distorting stats. Now switch Manning with Marino, Elway, and yes Kelly, and they would be doing the same stuff Manning is, and he would be the footnote to history.
October 21, 201312 yr And the Colts fear that Reggie Wayne tore his ACL too Maybe the NFL can get the group rate from Dr. James Andrews
October 21, 201312 yr And the Colts fear that Reggie Wayne tore his ACL too Maybe the NFL can get the group rate from Dr. James Andrews NO! This is me right now.
October 21, 201312 yr SQUISH THE DANDY FISH! As for the Kelly VS Manning debate, I'll say this: Peyton is a lot more consistent then Kelly was. When Kelly was on, the K-Gun could light up scoreboards, but when he was off (see: the last three Super Bowls), it could get ugly unless the defense played well. There are a lot more 10-7, 17-10 style games during the Bills' big run in the early 90's than people remember.
October 21, 201312 yr I want to know what NFL coverage rzombie is watching where they are nuthugging Geno Smith. They called him out for throwing a ridiculously stupid interception today, and pointed out he's got a strong arm and throws a good deep ball. That's all true. He outplayed TOM FUCKING BRADY yesterday, some praise is warranted. Don't know where GOAT praise is coming from, more like they are calling him a fucking goat when he keeps throwing stupid interceptions.

October 21, 201312 yr I think the bigger takeaway is the Broncos defense not being what it was hyped to be in the first couple games. The Colts offense is NOT that good.
October 21, 201312 yr The Broncos defense is sketchy enough that I have to deal with a week of THE SKINS CAN WIN A SHOOTOUT WITH DENVER!!! I hate this town
October 21, 201312 yr Author SQUISH THE DANDY FISH! What part of... do you not understand? Also, Doug Martin has a torn labrum.
October 21, 201312 yr DandyFishFan is being kneecapped by lambs and I'm driving off cliffs. Somehow, this feels right.
October 21, 201312 yr Author And the Colts fear that Reggie Wayne tore his ACL too Maybe the NFL can get the group rate from Dr. James Andrews Confirmed by NFL.com. Mr. Wayne is done for the year.
October 21, 201312 yr Are ACL tears like hamstring pulls, in regards to PED's? Not accusing anyone o anything, but there seems to be a hell of a lot more of them than there used to be.
October 21, 201312 yr Schefter is saying Brandon Meriweather is going to get suspended, they're just deciding on length.
October 21, 201312 yr I'm not sure if drugs have any kind of affect on ligaments and tendons at all or not. It might make it easier to tear because the muscles attached to them grow, but they don't.
October 21, 201312 yr Author Bud Adams is out for the season. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000267395/article/tennessee-titans-owner-bud-adams-passes-away-at-90
