They changed the rules... Denver actually had to man up and hold them to a FG.
AND THEY COULDN'T DO THAT

Now get your popcorn ready.
Cam's taking the show on the road against the Steelers tonight!
I see the "My team lost in overtime, time to complain about the overtime rules" period has started.

Did yall not just see Seattle destroy the Broncos D? They won that game fair and square. College football overtime is amateur nonsense that's not even real football.

I don't get why the NFL insists on having stupid overtime rules. Just copy the college model verbatim!

So. Does Denvers defense suck? Or is Seattle offense that great?
We all do. Great job by Wilson and company.

Enough there for Broncos to believe/hope they can win if they get to the SuperBowl again.

Denver needs to renegotiate it's contract with it's Defense so they play more than two quarters a game.
I'm like Richard Sherman.

Remember when people thought the Niners were the 2nd best team in the league? They aren't even the 2nd best team in the division. The honeymoon for Harbs and One Read Kaepernick is over.
noodle was making a joke about the NFL changing rules when manning doesn't get it done.
Exact words echoed by thousands of fans right now. Good game all around, could have been anyone's this time.

It should be sudden death after both teams have had a possession and it's still tied.
Baseball doesn't end games in the top of the fucking 10th if a team scores. Games are still being decided on a motherfucking coin flip.

Can we agree that was the Broncos best?
Sometimes you just gotta tip your hat and call the Seahawks your daddy.

Who says Seatle could have stopped Peyton? It came down to a coin flip, sorry, it's bullshit
No accusations of cheating? Stick to your guns my man. Don't go in your shell when things go wrong.
If he called that last drive at the beginning of the 4th the game is long over.

Denver's defense was tired as shit, and Wilson was running and throwing short ass passes that ate at them piece by piece. We also have to take into account Peyton's overtime curse.
They should make it again. The AFC looks very weak, except for the Bungles (but we know what will happen in the playoffs).
Nah only you 9er thugs

In the end, I blame shitty playcalling in the first half for Denvers loss. That constant run up the middle . . .

welp so i'm 8-4 in pick ems
I'd move the starting spot back to the 40 or 50 yard line, but yeah, I'd much prefer a college-style format where both teams get a shot, 2nd OT you have to go for 2 on extra points, etc.

Oh, so you shut down the Broncos.

Remember Ravens/Broncos double-OT?
Denver's defense has sucked for a while
Peyton won't win a Super Bowl with this defense. And considering this is his last contract, Peyton won't win another Super Bowl.

Using your own analogy, games don't end in the top of the 11th if a team scores either, so not sure how letting both teams have a possession fixes any of your beefs. I don't mind it. OT doesn't need to be dragged out. Both teams by that time have had 60 minutes to win the game.

Fun Fact: The same coach who made that call also called a to last week against the Packers

No way. The league wants the games to end and not drag out for long stretches (that's also why you can have a tie) and if you can't stop the other team from scoring a TD on the first drive you deserve to lose. Coin flip my ass

I did pretty good in the pick 'em league so far today: 12-2.
Only messed up on KC and SD.

Even though Denver lost, this was a real moral victory for them. They showed heart and resilience for most of the game. Wish it would have ended differently, but Wilson did his thing.
Haha. If you saw a guy chewing his gum like that in the gym you wouldn't immediately label him a tool? Sure....

Well if Hau$$$$ didn't miss the FG we would of won.... , or if the D didn't give up 8 points in ~41 seconds.. I mean everyone made mistakes this game.
Russell miss that huge 3rd down on wide open white boy too. I was really critical on Darrell last year, but I've been watching a lot of other teams, and good OC/play callers are freaking rare. Just ask the 49ers fanbase.

TJack, doing that work.
Hell of a game. Didn't alay any of my concerns with the D, but we got the W.
