Week 15 Game Thread

[rodderick]

If they called that roughing the passer on Manning/Brady, you'd see people crying about it until 2018.

 

[Devizier]

Seattle would really be favored over the Patriots on a neutral field?  

 
Probably not, but they would be a beast of a team to go up against, even with their 2006-era Patriots caliber receivers.

Score fast SD

 

[Helmet Head]

This year, more than ever, the refs have made so many game changing calls. It makes football tough to watch.

More than ever?  Really?
 

 

[RedOctober3829]

Now you know why I never rely on anyone else to beat Denver.  If they do its a surprise.

There were a bunch of personal foul calls today that didn't appear to be fouls. Any hard hit at this point is potentially a penalty.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

They're Dominos breadsticks

 
Chicken Parm!

 

[trekfan55]

What did Pareira say?

 

[Sportsbstn]

good play by Talib

 

[soxhop411]

And game.

 

[Jnai]

Damn. Fucking chargers can't win one fucking game.

 

[johnmd20]

What did Pareira say?

 
He hated the call.

 

[mikeford]

Philip Rivers: certified loser

 

[soxhop411]

 
He hated the call.

I hope this causes the NFL to review personal foul calls

 

[rodderick]

Phillip Rivers showing why he's one of the most overrated quarterbacks in NFL history. Consistently falls short.

 

[Stitch01]

Pats aren't losing to the Jets or at home so it doesn't matter other than for resting guys

 

[Sportsbstn]

Bills are not beating the Patriots in Foxboro

 

[soxhop411]

If we win next week we clinch the bye right?

 

[Sportsbstn]

If we win next week we clinch the bye right?

yes

 

[dcmissle]

Buck and Aikman and Pereira totally trashing that call. Good for them. But it won't matter because the NFL has David Sterned the refs into calling almost all hard hits on QBs penalties

 

[RedOctober3829]

If we win next week we clinch the bye right?

No.  If Denver wins, they are still tied.  

 

[RedOctober3829]

No.  If Denver wins, they are still tied.  

Oh, no they clinch the bye.  The #1 seed is still up for grabs.

 

[E5 Yaz]

No.  If Denver wins, they are still tied.  

 
Aren't there 2 byes?

 

[soxhop411]

No.  If Denver wins, they are still tied.  

Are you sure?

“@jeffphowe: The Patriots will secure a first-round bye next week if they beat the Jets.”

kap does not have anything close to wilson's vision ... Receiver wide open and didn't look his way

 

[brandonchristensen]

Denver is likely to lose again this season, guys.

 

[Jettisoned]

If they called that roughing the passer on Manning/Brady, you'd see people crying about it until 2018.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Denver is likely to lose again this season, guys.

Likely?

 

[trekfan55]

kap does not have anything close to wilson's vision ... Receiver wide open and didn't look his way

 
He has been exposed.  Besides a possible coaching change, there should be a QB change but how to do that?

 

[soxin6]

Denver is likely to lose again this season, guys.

In the regular season? To who?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Season over for SF.

 

[dcmissle]

Bitter pill. They came very close twice.

 

[fieldslikebuckner]

Denver could lose next Monday night at Cincinnati. Especially if the weather is lousy.

 

[Byrdbrain]

Denver is likely to lose again this season, guys.

I'd say this statement has quite a bit of wishful thinking built in.
 
Edit:In response to the note above, yes they could but are they likely to lose to the Bengals? I'd say that is a stretch.

 

[dcmissle]

Three times, in fact

 

[Ed Hillel]

Talib is so soft.

 

[JCizzle]

That has to be one of the worst roughing the passer calls of all time, but Harbaugh was still the guy incapable of making second half adjustments yet again. Will be interesting to see where Jed turns next year.

 

[johnmd20]

Season over for SF.

 
They have been a crappy team. Barely beat the Giants and Skins and NO. Lost to Oak. They aren't that good a team. Maybe Harbaugh did lose them b/c they haven't been playing well. Kaep's poor play hasn't helped.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Seahawks at Cardinals next week for the division. Given the Arizona QB disaster, it's a tall order to hold off Seattle

 

[Ed Hillel]

Brandon is attempting to make fun of me for saying Denver was likely to lose one of their last 6 games, which was of course true.

 

[brandonchristensen]

I was quoting Ed. The guy afraid of Dolphins.

 

[Ed Hillel]

We may get an onsides kick yay.

 

[Dollar]

The defender was draped all over Gates.  Should be DPI in the end zone.
 
Looks like the called it.  Good.

 

[dcmissle]

Aikman continuing to kill the call. Good for him.

 

[johnmd20]

Phillip Rivers ladies and gentleman.

 

[Jettisoned]

Denver could lose next Monday night at Cincinnati. Especially if the weather is lousy.

 
Cincinnati doesn't do primetime.

 

[Ed Hillel]

I was quoting Ed. The guy afraid of Dolphins.

 
I'm sorry if objective statistics aren't your thing.

 

[mikeford]

HOW ARE YOU SUCH A LOSER, RIVERS?

 

[Byrdbrain]

OK gotcha, I could see likely to lose one of six to be honest. It's a different animal at this point of course.
