Riiight... I forgot about 2013! Thanks for correcting my correction. Many of our members predicted a win. How much more delusional could we possibly get?PurpleMustReign wrote:No one on this board predicted anything wildly stupid, but you wouldn't know that by reading their comments.

I've really enjoyed the back and forth between the two boards this week. frosted, did this ever happen last year?IrishViking, you bastard you! We will at least get a field goal. You dont need to short us like that!
If Denver can keep Peterson in check they should be fine.
Not sure how everyone else feels, but I think Bridgewater is the real deal. Love the kid.
Peterson will get his yards, but they'll be in spurts. It'll be a close game in the 1st 1/2, but we'll eventually put them away.
I like Bridgewater a lot, actually. He was my favorite QB coming out of that class. That being said, I think we need to dare him to beat us. Stack the box against Peterson and try to limit the run as much as possible. If he finds receivers for big plays against our corners, I tip my hat to him.
Bridge hasn't looked overly good this season, yet. So I would absolutely dare him to try to beat our DBs by stacking and putting major pressure on him. THey will feed Peterson the ball early to try and slow down the pass rush. If our defense stuffs that plan early enough to score quickly, then it should be all downhill. But keeping their success on the ground game to very small gains early, and forcing the pass against Peterson's group...is huge and difficult.
We're going to get destroyed. We will lose by AT LEAST 100 points. Adrian Peterson will run to Mars to get a drink of water.
8 in the box. See if their receivers can beat Harris and Talib. I bet a coworker $20 the Broncos win. He said Kendricks and Barr are the best LB tandem. I laughed.
Bridgewater was my 2nd best QB after Carr, but he's in the unfortunate situation of being on a team that's deluded themselves into thinking they can be a contender. When that happens, the young QB is handcuffed into being conservative to avoid mistakes, and they're never able to learn, develop and get better. Young QBs forced into a "game manager" role turn into Mark Sanchez.
The Vikings are coming to the land of orange!
Facts about the Vikings
Vikings are mammals
Vikings fight ALL the time
The purpose of a Viking is to flip out and kill people.
Also:
Vikings are ranked 30th in total offense and 18th in total defense.
In points they are tied with us at 3rd best for points allowed and ranked 18th on offense for points per game.
They have the third best rushing offense in the NFL and are tied for most rushing touchdowns.
They have the lowest passing yards per game of any team in the NFL by a wide margin and the only team to have not thrown for more than one TD thus far.
Their run defense is bottom ten in yards per rush allowed and 24th in total rushing yards allowed.
They're middle of the road in passing yards allowed and takeaways
i may not have any relevant Minnesota Vikings gifs to share, but i do have one that features purple prominently... it will have to do.
AP torched the Chargers. He looked pretty damn good. Strangely enough, I'm not worried. So far, Broncos are #1 against the pass, #6 against the run, and #1 overall. AP might get some yards, but the Vikings passing game is the worst in the league.
i just learned something from wiki. these are shaped like peanuts... colored orange... but flavored with an artificial banana flavor.
Yeah....'All day beating his kid'
Hide yo wives, hide yo kids!!
Seriously though, everyone should hide their kids.
We're going to beat the Vikings like AP beats his kid.
We will hear all week from the pundits about the Broncos "soft underbelly" on the DL despite the fact that the Ravens and lions could not take advantage in any meaningful way. "The Broncos are vulnerable and they better watch out for AP", they'll say.
The truth is that the Vikings are the very definition of "one deminsional". Load up and take away AP, and make Bridewater beat you with his arm. I like our secondary against this QB. Also, their one loss was their only road game where they lost to a butt ugly 49er team. I don't think they travel well.
Broncos by 14+.
Trap.
Game.
Definitely going to be a tough out vs the Vikings as their Defense is top notch and our offense is not.
Probably coming down to a few plays again in the 4th quarter.
For the first time this season I expect Denver to dominate in all phases.
Let Talib and Harris play man with no S help and everyone else stop the freaking run. Game over for the Vikings.
Von against a rookie right tackle....hnnnnggghh....
So yeah, I checked this out.
We've gained a total of 5 yards on punt returns this year. Sanders has just about gained more than we've cost ourselves with holds, blocks in the back and general failure.
We had opposing fans in the thread talking stuff a time or two, iirc. I don't know if they ever brought it up over on their boards though!DK Sweets wrote:VenomousDB wrote:

I just checked...they still do it. That should be a funny week!frosted wrote: We had opposing fans in the thread talking stuff a time or two, iirc. I don't know if they ever brought it up over on their boards though!
I'll be interested to see how Seahawks.net takes it when they notice this thread prior to our game vs. them. I ripped the idea off of their board when I saw it in 2013.
Though, I'll cockily say that I made the whole concept much better and refined than what they do over there.

At this point is is abundantly clear to me that the Broncos fan base has absolutely no faith in their team and are sadly and transparently compensating. Given the obvious stinkiness that is the "professional team" that was unfortunately relegated to the sad "city" of Denver. I make the follow predictions.
AP sets the single season rushing record tomorrow
Teddy has 4 TD passes per quarter
Manning is sacked 28 times by the half. retires before the third quarter.
CP and Sherels combine for 22 special team touchdowns 1 for CP on the only kick off he receives 21 for sherels with 100% of all punts convereted.
Blair Walsh sets the single season point record by a kicker this game
final score 372-0
