Was happy to see Stokley starting for the Broncos, as bad as the defense looks the offense has got a ton of potential going forward if everyones healthy, having Walker and Marshall on either side with Stokley (arguablly the best slot receiver in the league when healthy) to go along with a very solid running game.
Not sure what Dre Bly's smoking here
"You can't give (Manning) all the credit," Bly said. "He doesn't call the plays. He doesn't make the adjustments. He's not the offensive coordinator."

Yeah, I was shocked at that too. It was a great call on 3rd down that little counter draw and Henry almost got it there. On the road against the best team in the NFL you gotta get in the end zone. Shanahan did that in the Raider game too. Took a short field goal instead of going for it on 4th and goal from the 1. Then the next week against Jacksonville he made the right call and went for it....they didn't get it! I applaud the call though whether they make it or not...to me it's the right call to go for it.
Glad you can see what I do in that offense. I think having Walker might have let the Broncos get down the field a bit more yesterday. Don't think they would've won or anything, but it might have been closer.
Bailey was everywhere again. I've never seen a corner stop more running plays up the middle than he does. Of course, that's the sign of a huge defensive problem....but there is no denying his greatness. He's unbelievable.
As for Bly, I didn't hear that quote, but I'm guessing he's been saying a lot of inceredulous "He does?" today! Peyton's the best in the league...all due respect to Brady.
