But yes, if he had options that didn't involve letting the clock tick down twenty seconds inbetween plays each time, he would've been smart to take them.


He did ;)

I agree with moondog that you can't much blame him in the loss, though - that interception was Porter being good, not Manning choking. And after that point, it was highly unlikely he'd have gotten an OT no matter what he did tbh, good clock management or no.


No, that's true. Watching the difficulty they had even getting the first of those needed scores (which they never did), it's extremely unlikely they would have been able to pull off two. He just wasn't playing at the level that I would expect from a QB of his caliber.
If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

Poor thing. Looks like your children could use some time in those dirty swamps. Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 04:23:21 AM 947 Views
Jesus christ I'm sorry, that was uncalled for ßelals Girl - 08/02/2010 04:52:23 AM 885 Views
Yeah, well, sucks to suck. Not our fault we're better. Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 04:56:06 AM 984 Views

Indeed. The Gene Wilder version is the better one. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 08/02/2010 05:44:05 PM 493 Views
As do I. But I was referring to the book! *NM* Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 05:49:25 PM 496 Views
What the hell, people. Lupine - 08/02/2010 03:31:09 PM 896 Views
Dunno, what is it about the anonimity of the internet that makes people like you The Shrike - 08/02/2010 04:10:38 PM 1043 Views
lol Lupine - 08/02/2010 04:20:52 PM 840 Views
Of course I disagree with your analysis. But you're entitled to your opinions, naturally. The Shrike - 08/02/2010 04:33:01 PM 991 Views
It's kind of you to defend me ßelals Girl - 08/02/2010 06:16:34 PM 923 Views
Not entirely sure what you mean, since I didn't edit any of my posts. Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 08:24:07 PM 1313 Views
I'm the one who edited two replies The Shrike - 08/02/2010 08:34:45 PM 838 Views
It was mostly the comparison. It seemed nasty. Lupine - 08/02/2010 08:47:18 PM 993 Views
Listen, you're uptight. You were looking for an argument/fight. Not quite characteristic of you, but The Shrike - 08/02/2010 08:54:26 PM 1137 Views
I guess I really don't get the game, then. Lupine - 08/02/2010 08:51:25 PM 983 Views
Well, football is a game where you should respond in kind. Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 09:37:36 PM 1157 Views
I disagree, Ghavrel, about the sexiness. Its very alpha-male. And very hot. The Shrike - 08/02/2010 08:55:29 PM 841 Views
I'll bear that in mind. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 09:38:57 PM 460 Views
No worries. I admit to having had fun with you. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 05:01:33 AM 464 Views
That is horrible fan-sportsmanship. You should be ashamed. *NM* The Shrike - 08/02/2010 04:46:58 AM 493 Views
Sorry Chorabliss, I shouldn't have replied when I was angry ßelals Girl - 08/02/2010 04:52:52 AM 947 Views

Nah, it was fun. Also, see my reply below. *NM* Legolas - 08/02/2010 03:44:27 PM 499 Views
I guess I'll be the first Australian to say this then Colonel Logain - 08/02/2010 03:16:08 AM 835 Views
Yup. The onside kick was a ballsy call and blew everyone away. *NM* everynametaken - 08/02/2010 06:47:54 AM 386 Views
it was a really good game until that interception moondog - 08/02/2010 10:42:09 AM 766 Views
They are world champs. Animosity - 08/02/2010 04:00:04 PM 1114 Views
There are American football leagues elsewhere (even if they don't matter). Legolas - 08/02/2010 04:12:44 PM 992 Views
besides canada (CFL), arena football, and NFL europe, how many others? moondog - 09/02/2010 01:43:25 AM 896 Views
Oh, there are plenty. Legolas - 09/02/2010 10:41:11 AM 928 Views
I don't know I think the talent difference is great enough to justify the title random thoughts - 09/02/2010 02:33:03 PM 806 Views
Yeah, no, that's not how it works. Legolas - 09/02/2010 02:55:51 PM 892 Views
You make a good point (as does Legolas as well) Colonel Logain - 09/02/2010 12:39:04 AM 897 Views
I never hear Super Bowl winners referred to as "World Champions". TaskmasterJack - 08/02/2010 05:47:48 PM 847 Views

That interception... I have no words. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/02/2010 04:23:53 AM 504 Views
Yeah that was pretty cool random thoughts - 08/02/2010 04:47:11 AM 968 Views
Exactly... who would have thought that Peyton Manning would choke?? BlackAdder - 08/02/2010 07:13:09 AM 978 Views
i wouldn't call it choking per se... moondog - 08/02/2010 10:36:27 AM 812 Views
I disagree. Sareitha Sedai - 08/02/2010 03:44:52 PM 959 Views
I still don't get how that clock works. Legolas - 08/02/2010 03:51:09 PM 935 Views
True. Sareitha Sedai - 08/02/2010 03:59:14 PM 974 Views

I don't consider it a choke. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 08/02/2010 05:49:17 PM 471 Views
Yeah I should rephrase that BlackAdder - 08/02/2010 06:03:23 PM 982 Views
Excellent Game. Two thumbs up. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 08/02/2010 06:01:39 AM 467 Views
my only complaint moondog - 08/02/2010 10:38:43 AM 929 Views
Isn't that one of the problems of the entire sport? Legolas - 08/02/2010 03:04:32 PM 958 Views
I think it is more complicated then that random thoughts - 08/02/2010 04:01:10 PM 898 Views
Well, he did match the record for completions in a game. TaskmasterJack - 08/02/2010 05:51:10 PM 884 Views
It's not quite that bad BlackAdder - 08/02/2010 07:38:04 PM 836 Views
