Damn, that looked scary

Hope he's ok

 

[ecruteakcityboy]

That first hit tho

 

[a-friend]

a-friend is killing the game on DraftKings

 

[shatterkneesinc]

chargers coaching staff got some explaining to do

he was hit twice

i find it extremely hard to believe he wasnt concussed

 

[ice city fc]

    Hope he's ok

tbh it was highly questionable when the Chargers training staff let him stay in the game after the first blow to the head at the start of the game. It's outright despicable they went on and let him finish the game after this.

Lowkey disgusting how the NFL let's **** like this happen but wants to take the moral high ground when it comes to issues like player conduct.

Outside of one 40 second drive, Seahawks still the only team to completely shut down Peyton Manning. Interesting. Maybe they just got his number.

 

[mr marcus]

Peyton complaining about the scoreboard operator in public 

could have at least discussed that in private......hope the guy doesn't get canned

Can anyone stop these Broncos?? Hands down the best team in the NFL!
NFL looks determined to end his career with another SB win.

Broncos dominating that scrub conference but once they mess with a real squad in the NFC it's a wrap...

A Cowboys-Broncos game right now would be realllly interesting.

 

[stillin729]

Broncos would thrash the Cowboys

there isn't a team I don't think they don't have the ability to dominate

 

[bostoiah]

I think Pats beat Broncos few weeks from now

 

[larry david]

Cowboys defense is still trash.
It would be like last years game.
Same result at the end

as well

This makes sense, you know, since we have the exact same players and defensive coordinator as last year.

I think Pats beat Broncos few weeks from now

That's next week.

My friend urged me to bet on last nights game.

I did not take the bait.

*phew*

C Chester McFloppy 's Broncos are looking good.

lulz. chester the broncos fan

im very impressed with sanders. i like decker but sanders adds more speed at the wr position. hillman looks really good. wonder if they go with the hot hand when ball is ready. good win. a good amount of rest before they play the evil empire.


terrell davis a football life dude could of been one of the greats |I . scumbag jets messed up that knee and he was never the same

 

[stillin729]

TD should still be in the HOF

Just a friendly reminder that in 2013 the Steelers had cap issues and tendered Emmanuel Sanders, thus making him a restricted free agent (1 year for $1.3M if he chose to sign the tender).

New England's GM thought he smelled a value deal through his hoodie so he offered a whopping offer of.....1 year for $2.5M to try and snatch him away. If the Steelers didn't match, they'd receive a Pats 3rd round pick as compensation.

Even with cap issues, the Steelers easily managed to match and retain him. Sanders goes on to be unrestricted at season's end.

So the Patriots had another shot at him, but this time they made sure they got the value deal

.....with Brandon LaFell (3 years for $9M, $3M guaranteed) since apparently Sanders was WAYYYYYY out of their price range.....(3 years for $18M, $6M guaranteed).

Currently sitting pretty at $9M under the cap though!

Oh yeah and the Patriots used that 3rd round pick on a safety from Rutgers who can't beat out Patrick Chung on the depth chart and mostly plays special teams.

Top 5 GM my ***.

^^^

 

[dmxfury]

I remember all that going down, thought for sure he'd end up in NE at some point

I also thought Pitt should've taken the third round pick..

 

[stillin729]

Patrick Chung is one of the worst safeties I have ever had the pleasure of watching

[Chester McFloppy]

a safety from Rutgers

You can't make this **** up.
