LIKE, Colts v Broncos last night

Basically everyone blowing up for Russell Wilson losing the game passing (again) at the goal line, not running it. Funny stuff.

Herbstreit needs go. Michaels is ok. Miss the wisdom and humor of Madden.

Had to change the channel. 12-9 in OT? I think they said there was 8 fg attempts, 12 sacks. MLB playoffs start today, thank goodness.

Mr. Ciara Princess Wilson hasn't been the same since he married her. Did you see them at the US Open? Wearing mirrored aviator sunglasses the entire time - no one else in the audience was wearing sunglasses...
Mr. Ciara would rather be playing in NYC.

I like defense. Don't like Wilson either. Since I do not do amazon no watchee for me. No biggie. I hope the nfl enjoys the loss of their fan base.

Go Mariners!

Wilson sucks.
And Go Cards!

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

I saw a Tweet in the 2nd half by Wade Phillips that said, "I think both teams should consider punting on 1st down."

Ditto that. I've been a Bronco fan since the days of Lou Sabin and Floyd Little and the AFL. I turned off last nights game to watch reruns of Blue Bloods season 2.

I heard someone say, “Wilson is simply Cosplaying an NFL quarterback.”





10 years to retirement! Just waiting!

Funny, a few years back there was murmur about Wilson for MVP. I never thought he was that good, just had a great team around him. It's all coming out now. Bronco fans be "we paid $245,000,000 for this?"

Sometimes a trash fire game can be great to watch, especially if you hate both teams.

Hadn’t watched yet, saw the title of this thread and had to watch.
Well, it WAS close the whole way.
Agree, Wilson and Herbstreit gotta go.
Always love Al Michaels. He and Cris Collinsworth were a really classy pairing. IMHO, you gotta go back to the eras of Madden and Cosell and Gifford to equal that pair.
Thanks for getting me to watch.

Are you kidding? Collingsworth is as biased as they come. When he & Al covered Super Bowl LII it was considered one of, if not the worst broadcasting coverage of any Super Bowl. Afterwards I was amazed they didn't catch Collingsfool on a hot mic saying how much he wanted to suck Brady's schlong arm.

I watched it, or at least had it on in the background. I stopped watching the NFL for a few years but I like Herbstreit and Al Michaels and was a Colts fan so I thought I’d try it out. Based on that one game I don’t think they work well together.

I also watched the last two MNF games on ESPN2 with the Manning brothers and really enjoyed that. I don’t think they do so well with guests but when it’s just those two it’s the best football commentary I’ve heard on a TV broadcast.

True, and good to point out. But I do like that easy going voice and manner. I thought he and Michael’s were a great pairing.
