It was actually 4 years, but I wasn`t worried Sunday, I`ve seen too many of his games when he played for us when the game was on the line in the 4th quarter he would find someway to blow it.

Me too season ticket holder for 12yrs.

I thought it was 3 yrs because when we gassed Gailey they asked Fitz to restructure.

He wouldn't and he got released and the bills took 2 10m cap hits.

I don't think this is going to turn out so well for Manning. I believed he was pretty much done after SB48, as Earl Thomas talked about how they didn't need to cover deep routes anymore and could cheat up because they knew Manning couldn't beat them deep anymore. Add the two years since, and I don't think he's improved on that front.

Brock was doing as well as Manning, and I think he could have carried the Broncos further in the playoffs than Manning will. Good news for all the other AFC teams that they only need to deal with the Broncos defense. The offense isn't a threat anymore, ESPECIALLY with Manning playing.

Most older QB's don't know when to hang it up.

Manning was finished after that St Louis game last year(2014),he took a real beating.

I really think Brady may hit that wall next year.

Drew Brees will be like that. He got banged up this year and just kept playing. I know he makes the cheese, so you need your moneys worth. But he is so competitive, he will play, even though he might need to rest up some. I saw a game with him on the sideline, pretending that he was in the game taking snaps. He has it bad.

Will be interesting to see how the weather affects Seahawks against Vikings. Better bring some hot hands.

"Age And Experience Trumps Youth And Treachery", this might be true in some aspects of life, not sure if it will work all that well on the football field but I`ll still put my faith in experience under pressure over inexperience.....we`ll see.

Road QB's 37 starts.

Also, I don't have the exact stats...I know that the home coaches have 0 playoff wins, compared to a bunch of wins by all the visiting coaches.

0 degree temps for Minnesota/Seattle game. Can the Seahawks keep the offense rolling when their hands/feet are frostbit? Do the Vikings have enough offense to keep up with said Seahawks and their defense?

The Texans/Chiefs game will come down to the QB's since both defenses are playing theirs butts off. Smith manages a game like no other and ultimately it will come down to Hoyer and if he makes the mistakes he's usually prone to.

It's pretty nuts that people are questioning who is the better QB in the Packers/Skins game but Cousins had made the argument as least somewhat consideration worthy. You like that!

The Steelers/Bengals game is my game of the week because nobody knows what's going to happen. Pitt has arguably the best QB/WR combo in the game but are down to their 3rd string running back and their defense is just plain crummy. The Bengals are playing with their back up QB but that's not necessarily a bad thing because that kid has the confidence and poise to maybe get them past that first round playoff exit mantra.


Let the games begin!
