McGahee is over 100. Really think a little more run early would've been good since Atlanta hasn't shown any sign whatsoever that they can stop it.

It's a little early to be making that judgement. He's not 100% yet.

Nor will he ever be. I hate the Broncos but I've always been a bit of a Manning fan as I've appreciated his dedication and mastery of being the ultimate field general. It's a little sad to see him now like this. Matt Cassel has a better intermediate to deep ball.

Bummer. That was a huge 3rd down conversion by ATL. Oh well, made a "game" out of it after all...

Nope, no more drives. This game had no business being this close.

That work in progress better hurry up, Manning is not getting any younger.

I would hate to be Elway if this team cant do any better than 8-8....money not well spent.

Atlanta was too early to go conservative. Threw only two passes in the 4th quarter and on defense played 4 deep giving Manning easy underneath completions. The Broncos run defense looked really good I have to admit.

Dummy.

Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner was charged with driving under the influence and speeding Tuesday morning, just hours after his team beat the Denver Broncos on Monday night.

The 30-year-old Turner was released from the Gwinnett County Detention Center just after 5 a.m. on a bond of $2,179.

Lt. Sean Smith of the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office says the traffic citation given to Turner shows he was pulled over for driving 97 mph in a 65 mph speed zone.

Do we get extra fantasy points for speeding?

This is getting sad. Bring back the real refs!

Eagles running back LeSean McCoy said in an interview with SportsRadio 94 WIP in Philadelphia that a ref told him that he needed him for his fantasy football team.

"I'll be honest, they're like fans," McCoy said of the replacement referees. "One of the refs was talking about his fantasy team like, 'McCoy, come on, I need you for my fantasy.' Ahhh, what?"

Oh man.

It's sad because Turner's been nothing but class his entire career. A true role model. So stupid of him to do that.

I remember the emotional response I would have to some of those when I was a kid. ALL I wanted to do most of the time between the time I was about 5 and 15 was play football, and much of that had to do with Steve Sabol and NFL films.

Huge loss.
