Re: The media only makes me want this lombardi even more
It may also help that we already played an all around good game in the postseason and the Broncos had to rest for a week coming off of that 11 game winning streak. It happens all the time with these bye teams : Taking a break while playing well a lot of the time slows down the momentum. See Green Bay last year.
We need to come out FIRING early. The last thing you want is to be down to Peyton Manning and let him use his pass rush like he did in the Indy days.

So why don't we get Tebow and grab some attention from the media?

Is Peyton lining up on defense on Saturday?

That is not what I meant at all but thanks for being a smart ass! Always appreciate it.
You don't want to get down big to the Broncos because the pass rushers are extremely talented and will most likely wreck havoc on our inconsistent offensive tackles.

Of course EVERY team doesn't want to be down early. It's one of the oldest cliches in football.

So logically the Ravens should win on Saturday? Despite the fact that Peyton has beaten Baltimore like 10 times in a row, it's at Mile-High Denver, and the Broncos just ripped the Ravens a new one a few weeks ago?

When news broke of Ray's decision, the media was all over it. I don't know what the hell you've been watching. They're tone down his retirement coverage these last few days because of the playoff games.

Nope. Won't happen. There will be some blather about Denver having a down game and rust from the "lay off," and it'll be on to sucking Brady's jock again or hyping the Texans as the Next Great Team.

We need to come out heavy early. Smash 'em hard in the mouth and keep stomping on them. It's still Denver, and they've always been a soft team. Beat them up.
Kruger needs to smack Manning like he did Luck.

So let's get some early personal fouls so we can show them who's boss. Really? You think an NFL team, in their own stadium, is going to wilt because you decide to get tough? Did it work last time Sherlock? Honestly, I'm sick of sock 'em in the mouth rah rah BS, especially from wanna be GMs. This WILL NOT defeat Peyton and the Broncos. Can you come up with something more constructive?

I don't have a plan yet but if I do, it's not rah rah smack-them-in-the-mouth BS, as if opposing veteran NFL teams are just going to melt under the pressure.
