[Ron Jeremy]

You mean 11 interceptions? It is Peyton after all.

Imagine if Brady had Peyton's offensive line and wr's.....wow

.

Imagine if Peyton had all those videos of Opposing teams signals and walk throughs to study and game plan before each game. And a coach talking to him right up until he snaps the ball telling him exactly what the defense is running as well.

The Broncos O is suffering a major identity crisis atm and I doubt hey can turn it around in time to make a serious run at the Superbowl.

We could still get an easier run as the second seed if the Patriots somehow draw the Steelers at home. I'm not sure the Patriots are playing at the top of their game either and the Steelers will be very tough to handle, regardless of who they play.

Funnily enough, Brady has been to 2 Super Bowls, Won an MVP since all that happened.... Must of been the tapes.

Brady with the Rams, inside a dome is a 12-4 team at worst....

 

[zombie jesus]

Only just got around to watching the Steelers in full. James Harrison can play next season if he keeps that up, best game he's had in years, two weeks rest did him good. Tuitt is awesome, just a great mover, always around the ball, can't believe it took this long to get him more snaps, very pleased to have him and Heyward as our ends long term.

Lawrence Timmons is a beast.

The secondary is still a nightmare, it was Alex Smith so no real deep balls but the screens, oh the screens, bad angles, playing too soft, poor tackling, so much YAC.

Having said that, if Roethlisberger can keep his mojo going, Brown and Bell stay healthy, the offense is capable of keeping up with anyone. Martavis Bryant must be impressing at practice too, overtook Wheaton on the depth chart this week.

Playoffs!

The Giants and Rams got into a massive brawl during the second quarter of Sunday's game.

Three players were ejected, but that didn't stop players from talking long after the game was over. Jameel McClain was not happy about the Rams targeting wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Walking back to the locker room, the Giants liinebacker couldn't hold back.


"They suck as an organization!" McClain exclaimed.

Many of the Giants felt Beckham was being targeted and although physical play is a part of football, some of it may have been taken too far.

"I had a lot of respect for the things their defense did," McClain continued. "I'm just not interested in chippiness and dirty play. It's not what this game is about, and it has no room in the league."

Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul and safety Antrel Rolle also used the word "dirty" when discussing the Rams' antics.

haha, what a bunch of f**king arsewipes.

number of giants players that were fined - 6

number of rams players that were fined - 0

seems to me the giants were the dirty players. the rams players were just looking forward to the holidays and got provoked into a street fight.

Johnny Manziel: I know I have to take this a lot more seriously

Johnny Manziel’s rookie season is over and the rookie quarterback has done some reflecting on his first professional season.

One of the observations that stuck with Manziel is that he needs to be more of a professional heading into his second season. Manziel said Tuesday, via Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, that he “still had the college mindset a little bit” when he came into the league and that he’s come to realize that he’ll need a different approach to succeed at this level.

“I have to take this a lot more seriously. It’s a job for me now,” Manziel said. “I’m not the Johnny Manziel that came in here a year ago. It’s been a year of growing up for me.”

Manziel could have saved himself a lot of grief by coming to that realization before his rookie season, but you can’t put the ketchup back in the bottle and he’s said the right things about the direction he wants to take in 2015 in the last couple of weeks. He also said he’s not worried about the Browns giving up on him after seven quarters, although indications are that the Browns aren’t closing any doors at quarterback heading into the offseason.

They shouldn’t close those doors unless Manziel’s plans for a more professional approach to the game manifest themselves with a more professional showing on the field and that should make for another interesting offseason in Cleveland.

Manziel questions fairness of Browns looking elsewhere for a quarterback

The Browns reportedly will explore all options at quarterback for 2015. Which could mean that 2014 rookie first-rounder Johnny Manziel will be supplanted.

Which would mean that Manziel won’t be happy.

“I don’t think it would be fair to give up on somebody after seven quarters of football,” Manziel told reporters on Tuesday. “If that’s what they were in the business for and what they intended on me coming in here doing — just giving him seven quarters, giving him a couple of games and then looking somewhere else — I don’t think that’s a lot of commitment and sticking with somebody. This league is a process and it takes a lot of time. Nobody comes in this league right away, and I mean nobody comes in this league right away and just absolutely kills it. That’s just not the way it works. You can show signs. You can show flashes, but at the same time, you need reps. You need years of it. You need time, and I think that’s what happens with a young quarterback. I’m not going into this offseason, into this draft, having any concerns about that or any worries about that. If you want to . . . it’s just something that I’m definitely not thinking about.”

Does he have concerns that what he did (or failed to do) with that seven quarters has created doubts about him?

“No, because I know when I’m in this building I’ve been doing the right things,” Manziel said. “Like I said, I got one game against Cincinnati. Obviously it was a rough day for us, and then a quarter and a half last week and one and a half drives in Buffalo. If that’s what they think is enough to evaluate a quarterback, then that’s really up to them, but I’m going into this offseason working extremely hard and wanting to be the guy next year. If that’s not the case, then obviously we’ll see down the road, but that’s my mindset going into it and I’m 100-percent sticking with it.”

While Manziel got only seven quarters of game action, he had plenty of opportunities in the offseason, training camp, and preseason to earn more playing time. He failed to do so.

Plus, the fact that he got injured fairly early in his second game as the starter underscores concerns that he can’t stay healthy. Which justifies the exploration of all options at quarterback.

man this guy is gonna bust hard. first he doesn't take his job seriously then he cries when his employer wants to find another qb that will take it seriously.

He was always going to bust though, he's a White RG3, with around 50% of the Throwing talent. Do you think they should trade up for Winston? Or get someone like Sanchez or Cutler?

whatever the browns do will be the wrong decision. qbs go to die there, the factory of sadness.
