It's going to be colder than a well diggers ass on Sunday. Seems Manning doesn't like the cold very much. I'm going out on a limb and predicting he struggles this Sunday and the Broncos lose to Tennessee at home.

Not going to say there's no way the Broncos choke on Sunday but consider this:
Short week with San Diego coming up at home (again) on Thursday. I doubt we'll see an all-out effort by the Broncos on Sunday.
Both teams have to play in the "diggers ass" to use your parlance. Tennessee isn't exactly an area known to have to play well in the cold either.
Indy plays an early game, and if they win, they clinch the division and the Titans are very close to being out of the playoff hunt. Imagine taking the field, at 5280 feet, in the cold-ass cold, knowing you're basically done for the season should Indy win.
Brady's single season TD record is still within reach. Manning would love that record.
I foresee Manning playing well enough to get a solid lead via 3 or 4 TD passes and Osweiler coming in to get some reps for the last quarter. The Broncos just have to watch out for gaffes on punts...
Peyton will keep it together this week without issue!
Just for the record, the only thing I don't like about Brock Osweiler is he got saddled with the worst initials I can imagine. Hope he gets some reps after Manning has us up by 28 in the first half.
Manning throws 3 picks because he's too busy screwing around with the glove and shivering on the sidelines. If I was a betting man I would definitely take the Titans and the points this week. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't see Manning doing anything good when it's cold.
Heavy run game. Just my thoughts here. Manning will pass well enough to keep drives alive. Hard to hit anything deep. Screens to wide outs and hitting RB in the flats. We still win Sunday and SD on Thursday.
I don't see them losing but I do see Peyton struggling. He definitely doesn't like the cold.Quote:

That and he looks like the twighlight guyQuote:

Prolly......
Donkeys win at home Sunday....nuff said.
I trust Peyton & I'll be there in the stands freezing my ass off rooting for him!
Bring a stick to knock the ice off your beer so you can drink it. I'll be thinking of you while I'm watching the game in my warm, toasty home.Quote:

I think that games like this are good for them. Last year they just rolled along the last half of the season and had no fire for the playoffs. This year they had a tough loss a couple weeks ago, now playing in the cold, I think this will ultimately (hopefully) help them.
Does it get cold in Tennessee?
Yes. I have lived through freezing rain and a 2 foot blizzard in the Nashville area.Quote:

Looked pretty good in the cold today. Oh yeah.
F**k it. I was wrong. I'll admit it.
Eating those words huh? It's all good... Manning looked miserable in Boston, but looked great today... I guess there is a big difference between that horrid East Coast cold and the "friendly" CO cold.Quote:

That being said, who are these tards who keep saying Manning sucks in the cold weather? Same jokers who said Lebron wasn't clutch and couldn't win the big game? He was hitting people in the hands all damn day long and they couldn't catch the ball. His stats were off the charts and just imagine if his receivers could catch.
Wait until Manning beats the Seahawks in New York in a frigid SuperBowl and then we'll see what's up.
I hope you right.Quote:

I was born and raised in Denver, the coldest winter I have ever experienced was in Memphis Tennessee.Quote:

I watched the game at BJ's and the crowd in the bar section was full of fans that were much more quiet than the crowd I'm use to being around...that was until Prater's 64yd bomb; everybody woke up. Awesome note to head to the locker room on for the half.
We walked into the sports bar RIGHT as he was making that kick. We thought it must have been an exciting game and had no idea.
It was an awesome game, and you should have seen Prater's kick in person! It was insane! It was my very first Bronco's game too! I'm pretty sure I caught a cold at it too. dammit.
From that kick until the end, it was pretty good.
Would someone coaching the special teams let them know that - yes - it IS ILLEGAL to block in the back!
3 times? One touchdown called back. C'mon guys!
Dog preferred the early snow games. :)
Plus there was no need to even make that block.Quote:
