I doubt Sherman really cracked any hand signals, if Belichick and Ernie Adams haven't cracked it then I doubt Chimping Out broke it.
Seattle just beat the out of Broncos, pressured Manning and swarmed their receivers.

How was he cheating? Fivehead was in complete choke mode and clearly must have telegraphed the plays
Manning has over 250+ hand signals and in 16 years noone has figured them out... but Seaddheral did? hahaHow was he cheating? Fivehead was in complete choke mode and clearly must have telegraphed the plays
Seems to me his is pretty easy to shut down in the playoffs considering his record number of playoff losses
Biggest choker in NFL history
Denver ran the same screen play on back to back plays, then just ran slants the rest of the game
Yet he still raped the out of the Chargers. what does that say about them? wait....I know... enhunt. even though Rivers said Whisenhunt wasn't the problem.Seems to me his is pretty easy to shut down in the playoffs considering his record number of playoff losses

They dared Manning to throw deep, which was the smart move because of his arm strength and the pressure he was getting. They straight up curb stomped the Broncos offense.
My personal notebook accounts for 21,479 different play calls at the time Manning was cut from the Colts and I stopped devoting my life to his career keeping tabs on his playbook. Of those 21.5k, there are 11,631 different hand signals. All of which have a minimum of 47 interpretations depending on the order in which they appear in the play call. The mean number of hand signal interpretations is 456. Boiled down, at random, any given Manning hand signal could mean one of 5,303,736 different things.
The Seattle Seahawks had 336 hours to prepare for the Broncos, assuming they did not anticipate Denver would defeat New England to advance to the Super Bowl and started preparing ahead of time. This is possible given the way they let the San Francisco 49ers have the lead at halftime and almost win the game except for a silly mistake to try Sherman with a sorry receiver like Crabtree on the last play of the game. But for the sake of this example we'll say they only used the two weeks prior to Super Bowl XLVIII to prepare for Denver. This means that the Seattle defense would have to master 15,785 hand signals per hour to truly know all of Manning's plays before they were coming. The average human brain can hold about seven "bits" of information in the conscious memory at a time, depending on various factors such as intelligence, brain chemistry, memorization ap ude, etc.
Given the above details, I see no possible way that Seattle could have cheated to master Manning. This data does not account for any new plays added since Manning became a Bronco.
Convenient how you're leaving out the two times that the Chargers have beaten Fivehead in the playoffs, including once with Billy Volek under center

though what does that say about Colts D if they couldn't stop a hobbled Rivers or Billy Volek? What does that say about Chargers if Fivehead still has more SB wins and appearances than an entire franchise?
To be fair, retrospect tells us that the defense on a Peyton Manning team is basically him scoring a lot. So really all of his playoff losses are entirely his fault.
What does it say about Fivehead when he's throwing like this?
Just because the Chargers have been largely a parade of incompetence since the merger doesn't mean Fivehead's off the hook for his chokes - and I certainly hope you're not bragging about the '06 ring when he threw 3 interceptions and 7 picks in the playoffs and got to play the worst Super Bowl opponent everWhat does that say about Chargers if Fivehead still has more SB wins and appearances than an entire franchise?
A big part of that was their terrible run D, they got steamrolled a lot. It was pretty much run the ball and play keep away. But certainly he deserves blame, he took up a lot of the cap and their offense didn't reproduce at the same clip, outside of a few games.
Im not a huge Manning fan, though he definitely has helped the Broncos at least be relevant, but how do you figure he's the biggest choker? Phillip has yet to win the big game in the AFC.Seems to me his is pretty easy to shut down in the playoffs considering his record number of playoff losses

It's the same reason he says Lebron's tastes like white chocolate. He can't be reasoned with.
I give Rivers plenty of for his own failures, but he's only been on the clear-cut AFC favorite once in his career (which ended badly more because of Marty and Marlon McCree than anything he did) and he hasn't been hyped up as the GOAT like Fivehead....
Get that bull out of here. Number of games where those Colts teams scored less than 20 points in playoff losses.
Chargers had some very stacked rosters from 2005 to 2010. In fact they were expected to beat the Broncos this year, because they were supposedly the hottest team coming in to the playoffs, yet got beat by Fivehead.
3 TDs and 7 INTs is not great, definitely nothing to brag about. But IIRC, he's the first QB to get past the number 1, 2 and 3 defenses en route to a SB. I might have to double check that, but if that's true, then no QB is going to put up great numbers when facing the top 3 defenses in the postseason.Just because the Chargers have been largely a parade of incompetence since the merger doesn't mean Fivehead's off the hook for his chokes - and I certainly hope you're not bragging about the '06 ring when he threw 3 interceptions and 7 picks in the playoffs and got to play the worst Super Bowl opponent ever
btw, that interception in that gif is a uva catch. an underthrow but still a great interception.
Brees started in '05, and from 2007-2010 they were infected with a severe case of Norvitis (plus the roster began to erode as AJ cheaped out and let all our talent walk).... plus, there were plenty of other teams during 2007-2010 that were just as good or better....Chargers had some very stacked rosters from 2005 to 2010.

But if he's the GOAT, surely he's capable of putting up better numbers than that against good defenses in the playoffs?3 TDs and 7 INTs is not great, definitely nothing to brag about.

It was a great play.... too bad Cromartie ruined his career by pumping out all those kidsbtw, that interception in that gif is a uva catch. an underthrow but still a great interception.
I've never once called him the GOAT. the media does that all the time, build someone up and then tear them down if they don't live up to their hype. I've said that if he won 2 SBs with two different teams, which has never been done before, it would be hard to not say he's the GOAT because of the 5 MVPs as well. But I'll take Montana in crunch time over anybody and not think twice about it. Though Manning is the regular season GOAT, hard to argue otherwise. But facing top 3 defenses in a row, no one is going to put up Madden numbers or even regular stats.Brees started in '05, and from 2007-2010 they were infected with a severe case of Norvitis (plus the roster began to erode as AJ cheaped out and let all our talent walk)....

This Alex Jones guy admits to not knowing much about football and it clearly shows with this stupid ass rant. Wasn't there a single football fan on the makings of that show to prevent him from saying all the re ed he said on that monologue? If there were, that Alex Jones guy should fire them for allowing him to make a complate ass out of himself.
I can't disagree with PM being a choker. I grew up despising the guy, for 3 years in a row the Colts beat the unholy out of the Broncos in the 1st round. I grew to enjoy watching Brady beat him in the AFC. It was definitely weird to see him in the orange crush jersey but winning cures all ills.
I'm more hurt (it still hurts :'( ) over Champ not getting his ring as he retires. I don't put this game on PM as much as I do on all the little injuries that just took its toll. The Broncos were a better team than that, but unfortunately history only likes facts.
this has nothing to do with Seattle, Billy Volek, or anything NFL for that matter but i had to share possibly the most tastic post in mankind's existenceBilly V
Guess who produced this gem IRL
"you lost me at the first sentence! haha Maybe it'd just personal experience, but an education degree (by that I mean general studies teaching at the middle school or below level here in texas) Has no concrete background in relevance to what they teach, it attempts to give teaching methods but in reality they reciprocate everything from textbooks and ppts. Maybe I'm being a little harsh on educators, don't get me wrong I appreciate what they do, but most lower level teachers aren't well versed scientific studies. This presents a problem in how the information is transferred from teacher to student, the teacher forces them to memorize it just because thats their "job", but a true educator must be passionate about what he/she teaches, they must be so well versed in the matter that they want to get everyone around them curious and excited to learn more. Here in Texas we are failing at that by letting teachers for young minds fall short of this standard, and just take the most basic of classes to get by.
Now, as a biologist (that means I actually have my bachelors of Science* not bachelors of arts!) in specifically biology, I am able to tell you there is a HUGE difference between degrees earned, AND from what university it was earned from. In addition, specific instructors make it even more of a black or white issue. The class/ grade/ hours that are required to complete each degree are vastly different. Not to mention the difference in applied sciences (which is a generic degree taking the normal core science classes required by all, and then 2-3 in environmental biology fields, which is very broad itself!)
The fact that you haven't watched it yet speaks for itself, I guess with all that gobbling you haven't found the time. I get it haha.
But I must admit I love science, I really really do. I love looking at something and trying to understand the most basic components of it and how it works.
In fact one of my most challenging tasks as an undergrad was to write a research paper about any topic that pertained to human behavioral development. I undertook the daunting task of "the evolution of religion". It was very difficult at first because I didn't want to offend anyone, and I wanted to come from an un-biased approach. I used my personal background as an EX-islamic and EX-christian (yes I've read [most of] the Bible) to construct it. I investigated Judaism for the sake of the paper (due to it being the oldest major monotheistic religion). But what I found most fascinating was to close my eyes and imagine what an early hominid individual would have seen, felt, and feared from his surroundings. That is where I developed one of my theories of myth creation that may have led to the development of good versus evil, and so on as the generations progressed. It is fascinating how we can create an illusion of though from conscious and subconscious experiences into a concrete mythical situation that may or may not ever occur. The answer to how these thoughts occur lies in the evolution of our brain, how the happenstance of a developmental quirk collaborated so beautifully with the survivability of that organism into believing in something that wasn't there. That my friend is a discussion better left for some chai and attentive ears."
