Baltimore wins in double overtime 38-35 after Peyton Manning throws an interception.
Was Pat Robertson correct?
Whatever some people think of Ray Lewis, the first thing he said after this win was to give praise to God. Just saying.
Apparently God worked by making John Fox into an idiot, because his conservative play calls in the last 2 minutes of regulation lost that game.
Got that one right. 31 seconds on the clock and 2 timeouts, isn’t that why people get Peyton? Good game though, very exciting.
Typical NFL prevent offense. Norv Turner is still the king of poor play calling.
Wow...that last INT Manning threw was totally his fault....that throw was so weak, he hung a ball in the air on a 15 yd pass. A throw that Tebow can make...contrary to his critics
Manning is a very good QB....but his smarts and leadership have always made up for his meh mechanics over the years. As he gets older his not so great mechanics are more apparent. His passes today floated
The game was lost because manning threw the ball directly into the Defense hands. Thrown across his body in the middle of the field. He is an overhyped player who should have eaten the ball or thrown it away.
If memory serves, Tebow actually won a playoff game for the Broncos. I enjoyed that game because I cant stand Roethlisberger..
I agree! Another criminal BIG SHOT walks!
Tebow can’t thread a pass like that. And Manning has EXCELLENT mechanics, he’s got the shortest snap to throw time in the league. His biggest problem has been not enough coaching and too much predictability. That’s what so regularly kills him in the playoffs, when coaching counts most a player that’s allowed to be his own coach loses. That’s how The Saints beat him, they jumped his favorite route.
The one that got exposed in today’s game was Champ Bailey. Who’s never been consistent, often a very good player but believes his own press too much. He got beat for 2 or 3 TDs, that’s the game.
——Lord spare us another week of the glorification of Ray Lewis.——
Amen....
Tebow took’em to the playoffs.....for a fraction of the $$$.
Yeah, that was a rookie mistake by Manning...no idea what he was thinking. But that game should have never reached OT...the Broncos had it won in regulation.
In any event, very exciting game. Nice to finally see a good one in this postseason.
I can’t ascribe motives to God but I praise him for the results!
The Broncos had a great season. They blew it because Manning pulled a Brett Favre.
And Lord spare us another week of the glorification of Tim Tebow who was sitting on his couch watching the game on TV and eating Cheetos.

Tebow may not be QB extraordinaire but the favor of God is on him. Sometimes favor opens doors that talents may not.

His mechanics have always been somewhat suspect
He has shortest snap to throw time because of the way plays are designed for him...not because of his mechanics. When he is rushed...he has Happy Feet, and does not plant them before the throw
Yes Tebow could have made that throw that Manning tossed for a pick. That was a weak throw by Manning, so weak that it caught air and lofted a little....a pass only 12-15 yds downfield. A QB in a midget league could make that throw
