Manning the Choke Artist: Going to Lose?

[GenocideAlive]

My bet's YES. I fucking hate that overrated pussy.

Final: 42-27, Chicago.

DA BEARS!!

seriously, fuck the colts

[Greyscale]

Da Bears!

That first play was amazing.

[PrestonBurke]

We'll see about that. 16 - 14, Colts Favor.

[Ender]

My bet's YES. I fucking hate that overrated pussy.

I fucking hate him too. So overrated, and he ALWAYS blames his O-Line for everything, even though they're the best O-Line in football.

We'll see about that. 16 - 14, Colts Favor.

There is a LOT of game left, my man, and two points is shit.

[Ubergopher]

Manning isn't my favorite person in the NFL but I'm adjusting my IRC claim of 24-21 Colts to 31-28 colts.

[SHISHKABOB]

Mmmm, in my professional opinion... 36-35 whoever wins.

[GenocideAlive]

Rex Grossman, biggest fuck hack ever? I vote YES.

[Biohazard]

22-14 Colts favor with about one minute left in the third quarter, I don't think it'll go that high genocide, but I do think the Colts are gonna win.

Bears are pretty good, and Rex was a Gator (I'm from Gainesville), but I have thought the Colts this whole time. There's still a quarter left, but I have a feeling you'll be dissappointed.

PS-Wtf is up with their kicker? All of the Colts' kickoffs have sucked...eh w/e

[Ubergopher]

They are makin' the kick's short 'cause so far the Bears kick return guy kicked their ass in the first play.

[kongurous]

Looks like the Colts have won. And it also looks like I'm $400 richer.

[Ender]

Wow. I really had no preference in this game, I just wanted a good game...it was okay. First quarter was fucking awesome, after that game was kind of blah...

Congrats to the Colts, laments to the Bears, Manning is still overrated...Addai and Rhodes should be Co-MVP, but I'm sure Manning will get it because he's Manning and the voters all think he's God's gift to football...

[GenocideAlive]

Wow, so I used to hate Manning so much. Now I hate Grossman.

He is possibly the shittiest quarterback I have ever seen make it into the Super Bowl.

2 INTs, 2 fumbled snaps--1 lost, a sack for 11 yd. loss...

*RING* *RING*

"Hello?"
"HI IT'S FUCKING COMMON SENSE. FIRE GROSSMAN."

*click*

I guess he should look at the bright side, though. He's going to get a Super Bowl ring, because if Indiana doesn't send him one for helping them win, they're doing him a great injustice.

[Biohazard]

You called it Ender, nice one.

[Ubergopher]

This game made me feel better 'bout the Superbowl last year. Damn Seahawks.

[Ender]

Steelers beat those Seahawks fair and square.

[Ubergopher]

Eh, the refs were slightly biased towards Steelers, but I'll agree the 'hawks were outplayed.

[Ender]

No, the football Gods were. And the refs didn't call an outrageous pass interference on a deep ball to Randle El one time, so I call it even.

[Wehrmacht]

Rex Grossman is also what people who consider an in-experienced quaterback..... so yes, he sucks, and he should probably be put to fault for losing the game... but meh...

[IrishDutchman]

2 INTs, 2 fumbled snaps--1 lost, a sack for 11 yd. loss...

You know, I don't know shit about football, but I'm hazarding a guess that your team lost. :P

[U-238]

Gogo colts!1111!!!!!!11!!onemilliononeandahalfonewon!!! !111

I wouldn't go throwing the entire game onto Rex Grossman's shoulders. The Bears defense, imo, was the main fault. The colts did exactly as I thought they would, quick pitches to the runningback out in the flat, short out and swings, and good ol' fashioned pound-it-up-the-middle. The Bears had it thrown against them all night long and they failed to stop it. The clock control of the colts was outstanding. If you look at the ToP you'll see why I don't think Grossman was entirely at fault. The only time he really got a chance was late in the game and if you look back at games in the regular season he's always fucked up in the 4th quarter when trying to come from behind. (Must not be a pressure guy?)'

Anyway congrats to the colts and Tony Dungy. ggnore :tup:

I'm sure Manning will get it because he's Manning and the voters all think he's God's gift to football...

nono that's Brett Favre. :P

[Ender]

No, FAVRE thinks Favre is God's gift to football. Why else does he keep coming back?

Guys who play for records lose me respect. My respect for Favre has plummeted of late.

[GenocideAlive]

Are you out of your fucking mind? An interception, a touchdown, two forced fumbles, and staying on the field for 3/4 of the game...what do you want from them, 30 points?

You fail as a football commentator. Rex Grossman had multiple "chances" before the fourth quarter, but he managed to bungle all of them dropping snaps, throwing bad passes that he didn't have to make, and all around shitty decision making. The only time the Bears made good progress was when they ran it, because you'd have to be a world-class fuckup to somehow manage to screw up a handoff.

Let's face it, there were three parts to the Bears' offense: Benson, Jones, and Grossman. When one wasn't working, they got the others going. On Super Bowl night, as soon as Benson got hurt, they lost their dual wishbone formation and had a single back formation that was never meant to be ridden as their main gameplan. They had a two-dimensional offense in the Super Bowl, and frankly that's always a losing scenario. Grossman is total fucking noobsauce, and they couldn't manage to stick with the run because apparently the coach wanted to get a new quarterback. He wasn't sure he could get rid of Grossman as is, but after the owner saw his abysmal performance, his contract won't be renewed.

When you're watching them on TV it's one thing. When you're on the feild it's another story. Rain = slick ball = hard to hold onto = dropping balls. The INT was Mannings fault, a horrible decision.

what I'm saying is that the defense came in heralded that they had their "swing" back. They clearly didn't when you can run it down their throats for near 200 yards and throw for another 250. (read almost 450 total yards in offense alone) Also if they had got the offense off the field a little more then they wouldn't have been there for 3/4 of the game would they?

Rex Grossman had multiple "chances" before the fourth quarter, but he managed to bungle all of them dropping snaps, throwing bad passes that he didn't have to make, and all around shitty decision making.

The "shitty decision making" didn't happen until the 4th quarter. At halftime he only had 2 incompletions. The fucked snaps happen somtimes (lack of qb/center communication) and it was wet. Benson going out of the game was a bad thing for the offense but we don't know that he would've produced much anyways.

He isn't great right now but do please remember that this is his first full season as starting QB. So basicly that's about the same as playing his rookie season. They'll renew his contract because Lovie Smith will want him back to be their starting QB. After all how many times during the season has he said that "Rex is our guy"?

And the Bears run out of the striaght I not a dual wishbone.

Don't talk like you have any idea exactly what it is like. Besides, every guy on that field was wearing gloves decided to handle the weather. They also get paid millions of dollars to catch and hold onto those balls, along with years of training. One drop? Okay, maybe. A bunch more? Uh uh. I could have caught some of those balls.

(read almost 450 total yards in offense alone) Also if they had got the offense off the field a little more then they wouldn't have been there for 3/4 of the game would they?

First off, the Colts offense is incredible, and the Bears were without one of their biggest playmakers in Tommie Harris. Yes, one man on the defensive line can make that much of a difference. Think about the Steelers of the 70s. Where would they have been without Mean Joe Greene? Secondly, a defense against that good of an offense with almost no time to rest is, of course, going to get manhandled. They had little rest, and playing defensively is a lot harder than playing offensively as far as needing to react and keep up, especially against amazing gameplans like Dungy and Manning make. As Genocide stated, the Bears defense still made some huge plays and a lot of stops. Give them credit, and don't buy into that bullshit mantra defense wins championships - you have to offense too.

The "shitty decision making" didn't happen until the 4th quarter. At halftime he only had 2 incompletions. The fucked snaps happen somtimes (lack of qb/center communication) and it was wet. Benson going out of the game was a bad thing for the offense but we don't know that he would've produced much anyways.

Benson wasn't producing much, but Jones WAS. Jones went over 100 yards on something like 12 carries... and since Jones is a fast guy with big play capability, they should have kept running him.

First full season as a starting QB? Whine and moan...I have one name for you. Big Ben Roethlisberger. Yes, the man had a great team around him, but he still stepped up and made plays. Vince Young did the same, and his team was shitty, yet they still almost came back and made the playoffs IN THE AFC. Favre stepped in and rocked after an injury to the Green Bay starter and he never relinquished his spot. Grossman has had 3 seasons to learn the game - just because you're injured doesn't mean you can't watch and learn, especially in making decisions. There is no excuse; he's just not a good quarterback.

[Neo]

I don't really follow football at all, but its about fucking time for our colts.

The pacers are a complete fucking disgrace (and I'm not talking about how they play).

We needed something, and the last i heard the Colts were doing well, and then Bam, someone offhands "They are going to the super bowl!" which was pretty cool.

I pretty much figured the colts would win -- not that I bet on them, not that I know where to do that anyways. I just took it as a given they'd win. Childish loyalty or some such bullshit I suppose, but its kinda cool =)

The rain was kind of fucking annoying, but it made me all happy inside knowing people bought a gigantic fucking hd tvs to watch a game getting rained on.

[GenocideAlive]

What can I say, Manning and that Dunchy guy deserved it. They are both excellent at their jobs, Manning is just pretentious and gets on my fucking last nerve. It doesn't help that his brother and he were ushered into the NFL as Archie Manning's sons and I think that alone got them their shot(s). I despise nepotism and I hate the Mannings for it.

Otherwise, I seriously despise and loathe Rex Grossman's overrated ass. I hope Manning did a taunting dance in front of him then laughed in his face, and I hope he hates Manning as much as I do so it'll burn all the more. Fucking fruitcup.
