Week 1 Game Thread

How was that punt not blocked?

 

[luckiestman]

I think the Manningcast is ahead of ABC, maybe just on YouTubeTV, idk

 

[ifmanis5]

Wide receivers that can make plays. Well done.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Wide receivers that can make plays. Well done.

I think BB's WR draft strategy should be to take the best available Alabama receiver and not put any other thought into it.

Haha, I think Mac would be on board with that also.

 

[shawnrbu]

Geno looks great tonight.

 

[rodderick]

Geno has been incredible this half.

 

[ifmanis5]

Geno looks good tonight.

 

[snowmanny]

A long time ago Geno closed out a season with the Jets with a perfect QBR. @luckiestman remembers This is better. He must have like eight? starts since then.

[CoffeeNerdness]

Does Seattle really have a Michael Jackson and a Kobe Bryant on defense?

 

[JOBU]

And that’s why you play defense

 

[Gash Prex]

Russell throws a killer INT right to the safety and he drops it

 

[Vandalman]

Does Seattle really have a Michael Jackson and a Kobe Bryant on defense?

Yes, but it’s Coby.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Geno Smith is kinda fascinating as a career, early 2nd round pick, showed real improvement year 1 to 2, goes into year 3 and gets injured in a lockerroom fight, then never gets his job back because the organization was so desperate for a mediocre year they stuck with a journeyman... gets hurt again, goes off to back up really good players, almost never gets into games, but when he does he shows that he might be good.

 

[Bunt4aTriple]

All I can think is that that Next Door thread about Seattle fans could be LIT tonight.

 

[EvilEmpire]

I don't know how good Geno really is, but his line looks solid enough.

 

[Van Everyman]

It’s great that Chris Berman could be brought back to continue his tradition of talking nonstop about 9/11 when he does the highlights at halftime.

 

[BaseballJones]

Good lord the left tackle had the DE around the neck for like 3 seconds on that last pass by Wilson and no call. Holy smokes.

 

[shawnrbu]

Russ with the Flacco.

 

[shawnrbu]

Javonte > Gordon

 

[E5 Yaz]

See? Down that close, Russ should throw.

 

[shawnrbu]

Forearm down.

 

[pappymojo]

The Broncos should just hand it off to Gordon and run straight up the middle.

 

[ifmanis5]

Pete is pretty pumped about that.

 

[shawnrbu]

Let Russ cook.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

They can’t run the ball inside the 5, their line is getting smoked

 

[Rook05]

Jesus

 

[shawnrbu]

Look at The Poodle go.

 

[Gash Prex]

Who thought that was a good plan? Run right into the run blitz

 

[Remagellan]

See? Down that close, Russ should throw.

It's like Russ is trying to show Seahawk fans that he was totally justified for that playcall (assuming he really did audible).

 

[Remagellan]

It got buried, but I really wanted to hear Peyton and Eli's thoughts on DC's Stargirl.

 

[Cellar-Door]

I enjoy that for like the 6th straight year, Melvin Gordon is in a timeshare with a guy who gets a ton of hype... then Gordon produces as well or better. Every year.

 

[Gash Prex]

Broncos offense in the red zone is a disaster - can’t be rushing to the line every play.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Once the crowd gets involved in the red zone it’s a shitshow of an operation.

 

[Gash Prex]

Peyton was about to punch something during that disaster sequence

 

[BaseballJones]

Yeah I don't get it. Dude is good. Really good.

 

[DanoooME]

The main problem with Geno is he can't and won't throw down field. I think his only completion of more than 10 yards was the blown coverage TD in the first half

 

[JOBU]

Great effort there to get the first

 

[shawnrbu]

Right foot, left foot spot.

 

[JOBU]

Umm that measurement looked a tad short

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That ball didn’t look like it reached the stick on the measurement itself? I feel like I’m hallucinating.

Pete with a dumb challenge, he won’t win that.

 

[shawnrbu]

Won’t be overturned.

 

[Gash Prex]

same here - was clearly short on the measurement but ….first down

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Think the spot was a function of the amazing effort. Not sure about why they gave them the measurement though.

 

[JOBU]

Gotta pump those ratings

 

[strek1]

Umm that measurement looked a tad short

The measurement looked a hair short, but after seeing the replay , maybe they spotted it short. Sure looked like his stretch got to the marker.

 

[JOBU]

Agree. Could have been a funny camera angle on the measurement

Yeah this seems right

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Denver gets a break there, doesn't have to use a timeout on that big negative play

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Clock management is a lost art.
