NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

[stillin729]

I would not be shocked if Denver came out and ran the ball heavy; Moreno showed no breaks in his MRI so he should be fine come SB Sunday

Considering the Broncos secondary was getting torched by Julian Edelman and Austin Collie... they could be in for a rude awakening.

Why not use the most recent example of that match-up though? Broncos guys held up their end last Sunday.

And a lot of that torching the first time around came after their best DB was out for the game.

I think they'll be alright.

People might be overlooking the Denver rushing offense in the game, too. Seattle has been stout, but this year they gave up:

86 yards on 17 carries to DeAngelo Williams. (away game)
102 yards + 44 yards to Arian Foster and Ben Tate. (away game)
56 yards + 37 yards to Trent Richardson and Donald Brown. (away game)
134 yards to Zac Stacy. (away game)
158 yards to Mike James. (home game)
110 yards to Frank Gore (away game + he had one big run)
57 and 44 yards to Khiry Robinson and Mark Ingram (home game)

We've seen Ball and Moreno's ability to pick up huge chunks of yardage. Could be the difference Denver needs, esp. if the weather sucks.

Run defense has been crazy inconsistent this year, but I think we've shored it up heading into the playoffs. Shut down Gore obviously.

I agree with what you said about small recievers. I worry about those little 6 yard Welker passes. We need to get pressure on Manning lightning fast.

I am talking about the recent matchup -- Edelman was WIIIIIIIDE open on that overthrow and Collie had a step running up the sideline. If Tom had hit those throws, who knows what would have happened.

Of course, we also need Russ to HIT on those throws. He threw some DARTS on Sunday, but he hasn't been lighting the world on fire lately. 5 TD throws in the last 6 games I think I heard.

 

[timelessflight]

anyone watching the pro bowl draft?

 

[Hahahaha]

I had it on but turned it off when they said its special team and linemen today. No thanks.

It would take Erin Andrews and Nicole Zaloumis tag teaming eachother between picks for me to have interest in that

[Peep Game]

He's def spitting real stuff right now; I never listen to him but I have off because of the snow

Cowherd is my favorite radio sports personality . listen to his show daily

him and SVP & Russillo have crushed the race argument many times . looking forward to hearing what he has to say about Sherman once i get off work

Same. He's very intelligent. I enjoy the depth he goes into when talking about certain issues. Even if you don't always agree with him, I think he raises a lot of valid points.

His book is next on my list to read.

Is that the one where his face is superimposed on a boxers body? If so, same here

[checks grossman]

Yeah I couldn't find anything concrete either. Hoping it's true seeing how Dan Quinn is/was scheduled for a 2nd interview with CLE later in the week.

[awwsome]

Hope the Hawks win the SB, Sherman locks down Thomas, gets a pick and trolls the world. Guy has been the best corner since Revis went down, granted he's on the best secondary in the world but still.

Also for the young god Pete Carroll.
