1. how good is the pass rush for the Broncos? Will Maye have time to throw?

2. Howdy!!

   I am going to be in Florida for holiday (UK here) over the SB period.

   How does one go about finding out about superbowl gatherings/partys in the Florida area?

   Thanks!

3. Having already been aware that Denver’s defense is suspect against good teams, the main reason I give us the advantage is how familiar our offensive play caller is with Jarrett Stidham.

4. Congratulations to the bills mod team for finally updating their banner

   Edit: Looks like they’ve decided to update their HC now too….

5. Although I wish the AFC championship game was at home I moved out to SLC a few years ago so excited to make the drive out to Denver for Sunday! I know it’s not Philly but hope the fans are chill

6. Ik most people won’t see this. But I predicted 25-13 pats win (by 12 points) and stroud goes for 186 yards and 1td 2 picks. Pretty close 😭

7. I slept like a baby knowing my team won.

8. Man online fans really won’t respect us for shit we scored three offensive tds on the best defense in the NFL and they are saying Stroud is the only reason the Texans lost and not that our d is elite, that said:

   WE ALL WE GOT, WE ALL WE NEED

9. No matter what remember we went 4-13 last season… we have now won two playoff games… no one imagined this last April…

10. With Stevenson’s resurgence (averaging 100 scrimmage yards per game the last 7 weeks) and the defense playing its best ball of the year we’re looking at a complete team. Maye and Boutte have been hanging in there against some tough defenses. 

    Rams vs Seahawks looks like it might be a banger. But then again, the way that defense thrashed SF, they might be the team to beat

11. This is a fun read today

12. That was a hard-fought, gritty win. The offense needs to preach ball security during this week, and I want to see the ball handcuffed to Drake each morning, noon, and night for the next 6 days. Defense was lights out spectacular, and I generally have little worries about them for the next game at least. Patriots are the favored team betting-wise so far, but this feels like a trap game, and I hope Josh doesn’t try to get too cute and we focus on hard hitting, down our throat football. I love this team, and though the stats were pretty awful for Drake this week, I can’t wait to grab his jersey this week to join the collection.

    Final note, Fuck the doomers in the game thread when they have a 10+ point lead, and you act like they are down 2 scores for every little mistake.

13. The Patriot hatred at ESPN is ridiculous. I just wanted to see some highlights. They spent the first 20 minutes covering the Bears/Rams and the National Championship game. They finally got to the Pats game and only showed 3 highlights. Then they transitioned into 5 minutes of Rex and Woody talking about how bad CJ Stroud was. And that was it. Fuck ESPN

14. These sports shows on ESPN are saying the better team yesterday was the Texans and that they win that game with 31 other QBS, and I’m just flabbergasted. Was I watching a different game? Are the Patriots not 15-1 in the last 16 games? The game should’ve been a blowout if not for Drake Maye just standing in the pocket like a sitting duck while it closes in around him and getting stripped.

15. Waking up knowing the Patriots are once again headed to the AFC Championship and everyone hating them again is such a great feeling. LFG

16. This week they need to work on the left side of the line and Maye holding onto the ball. Just work on that.

17. If Maye and Campbell figure things out next week, the Broncos are cooked.

18. Shoutout to Anfernee Jennings. Guy has been killing it as of late.

19. Yet again as Milton Willams said post game, they still aren’t talking about our defense. Did CJ play bad? Yeah BUT WE MADE HIM PLAY BAD. We’ve had a top 5 defense all year when healthy and guess who got healthy at the right time. Combine that with Drake Maye MVP THATS A SUPERBOWL WINNING TEAM. I guess everyone hasn’t learned over the last 25 years.

20. I’m really interested to see how this 2024 QB draft evolves over the years. Daniels, Maye, Nix taking their team already to the championship game, and Caleb came damn close yesterday.

21. I have a suggestion for Coach Vrabel. Have the creative department make up a fake headline that says:

    “Pats take Stidham lightly, Blow chance to play in Super Bowl”
