NFL
praying the Broncos lose half their roster before the playoffs, like last year
every game is a "shootout"
Von is back, >> JJ Watt
Demarcus Ware being " past his prime"
best WR in the NFL
best TE in the NFL
Peyton Manning at QB
Peyton coaching and playing simultaneously

Seahawks are finished
fluke SB win
coincidentally declined as the NFL introduced HGH testing
4Decliners
Ghazi
Cowboys beating mediocre teams
Demarco Murray ticking time bomb
San Diego Clippers
Green Bay regular season team with Dom Capers and McCarthy as coaches
A team with Nick Foles at QB
A team with Andy Dalton and Marvin Lewis
New England's offensive "weapons"
Baltimore and Indy are cute teams, but let's be real, tbh

Julius isn't the best TE in the league IMO. He's just a TD guy. Doesn't dominate all over the field and makes mistakes. Still top 5, but he's just a TD guy that is on an unsustainable pace tbh.

Can't believe Demaryius was once compared to Dez Bryant, tbh..

There isnt a TE better than him now that Gronk lost his speed and Jimmy Graham's ugly, inbreed ass looks like damaged goods, tbh..

Julius's only weakness is blocking, and he has made dramatic improvements there since entering the league..

He's never going to put up huge yard numbers in the Broncos' current scheme, too many peripheral weapons and Manning moves the ball around to easier mismatches..

Broncos are a soft finesse team, they'll fold when they get punched in the mouth. Any physical team beats them in the playoffs, tbh...

Jimmy Graham is still better. His QB is just falling off. A few other guys are in the running because they do things all over the field, not just from 6 yards out where you're bigger than everyone and have the best regular season QB of all time..

Avante level jinx imminent?

[chunticakes]

Good thread. Would recommend.

[dirk4mvp]

Op is correct on most things said. The Colts are the only team that could potentially beat them

True, I think Indy and Baltimore could challenge, they are 2 of the top 4 with Denver and Green Bay, tbh..

Harlem's PW preview:

1. Denver
2. Green Bay
3. Indy
4. Baltimore

[AlexJones]

Detroit vs Denver super bowl, tbh

[DeadlyDynasty]

Despite the changing faces, it's incredible that the same teams continue to rule the AFC as they've done for most of the past 15 years: Patriots, Colts, Ravens, Broncos, and Chargers. If the Steelers get their act together the circle will be complete

[Avante]

We are looking at a Denver vs Indy and a Packers vs Cowboys Championship games, if injuries don't spoil things.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Make that close to 20 years, with AFC runner-up in ():

1994: Chargers (Steelers)
1995: Steelers (Colts)
1996: Patriots (Jags, should've been Broncos)
1997: Broncos (Steelers)
1998: Broncos
2000: Ravens
2001: Patriots (Steelers)
2003: Patriots (Colts)
2004: Patriots (Steelers)
2005: Steelers (Broncos)
2006: Colts (Patriots)
2007: Patriots (Chargers)
2008: Steelers (Ravens)
2009: Colts
2010: Steelers
2011: Patriots (Ravens)
2012: Ravens (Patriots)
2013: Broncos (Patriots)

Brady, Manning, Roethlisberger... that's been the AFC from 2001 to present save the '12 ravens

I thought it was.....what does it matter what happened 5 years ago?

[spurraider21]

I thougth it was.....what does it matter what happened 5 years ago?

it doesn't matter when you talk about teams who have nothing in common with the teams from 5 years ago, the raiders being an example. same with teams like the texans, bills, bengals, crowns, ravens, chiefs, jets, dolphins, colts who have seen incredible turnover

brady's patriots have been a constant, as were peyton's colts.

the steelers had been, but they've fallen off since their defense has gotten old and they've drafted poorly. if i'm picking the steelers matchup this year, i'm not giving them the benefit of the doubt because they won the superbowl 5 years ago

You do know that these teams have the same owners and usually the same coachs, right? They have a particular culture, they do things in a certain way. They build teams in a certain way.

Why haven't the Lions or Browns ever been in a SB despite the fact those franchises have seen tons of players come and go? Your Raiders haven't won more than 8 games in a season for 10 years, and we are talking totally different players, so...????

sure. as i've said many times, if you want to pick against the raiders because they're a terrible team... more power to you. but if you want to pick the raiders because they were also terrible 6 years ago, i start to lose ya there

You really don't get it at all, oh well.

Demarcus Ware being " past his prime"

Actually the knock was that he couldn't stay healthy for the money he was making. The Broncos got him for 3 million less a year. He's great when he's able to play. It's interesting that you call Murray a ticking time bomb but ignore Ware. We'll see how that works out for you.

BTW, I'll take "beating mediocre teams" over "losing to mediocre teams" 10 out of 10 times.

[Raven]

denver indeed looks terrifing. But then again, Peyton always does.
