MNF Live-Blog: Packers-Broncos - 2nd Half

Monday, October 29, 2007


13-7 at the half and the Broncos are lucky it isn't more. (Naked Jake the Snake via The Onion)

Wow....they had to run the intro again? Come on.

Packers ball to start the half, and the Broncos give them yet another gift on a penalty after a defensive holding call. James Jones gets another grab and the Pack are moving it all over the Broncos. Well until then.....Favre runs a play action, roll out to no one and that's never going to work. Sack Broncos. Screen goes nowhere, and it's third and long.....

Nothing doing, and the Packers punt on their first drive in the 3rd. Broncos ball at their own twenty.

Whoa a whole white drum corps for the Broncos....only in Denver.

Play action pass to Marshall picks up a bunch on first down, and the Broncos are in business. Run from Selvin and he picks up a good bit. Illegal Contact on the Packers and that'll give the Broncos another first down.

Jaws did just give great numbers on the Broncos and their percentages regarding Play Action.....these are the stats I want and need. Great play call of the sneak on third down and another first for the Broncos. A couple of screens net negative yards, but pick up the first as Cutler hits Martinez for the first.

Yet another penalty negates a first down by the Broncos and this is just getting ridiculous....there's a penalty on every play. And ANOTHER holding call. Just give me Vince Vaughn and let's end this thing.

I want to take the time to say that Kampman is perhaps the most underrated Defensive Player in the National Football League. The guy just keeps working.

Elam with the FG and it's 13-10 GB.

"Lynch has his pads off and a knit cap on, and it doesn't look like he's coming back in."- Michele Tafoya


You think Michelle with on L?!?!

"If the broncos don't change up their obviously ineffective defence, then they are in deep shit."- Dummy

You think Dummy?!?! Just kidding.

Favre had a receiver, but he loses the ball somehow. Vince Vaughn after the break!!!

"I'm sorry I'm a little distracted that cheerleader just got done doing a routine."- VV

Vince mentions the NFL Network and Tirico gets testy. Didn't see that one coming.

"Those are the throws I make when I play on All-Madden unfortunately."- VV


Huuuuuge run by Hall which is negated by a bad penalty call on a hold by Marshall. That's followed by a reverse, a no-throw, a scramble and a loss of 4 by Brandon Marshall. Should have been a loss of twenty. Someone should tell them that they can throw the ball out of bounds.

Mike Tirico informs us that this false start is the 20th of

"Our scientific crew says that was a 70 yards of running for a loss of three."- Mike Tirico

Punt from the Broncos, and Vince Vaughn is not getting a word in at all. Broncos punt hits inside the five.

"If you're having trouble understanding the game, Steve Young and Emmitt Smith will explain it to you."- Kenny Mayne

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA. Whew! That's f'ing comedy right there.

"Movie Talk, Movie Talk, Movie Talk."

Annnnnnnnnnd Vince is gone! Was that even worth it?

Favre hits Driver on third down and that's a dagger. He's done it so many times before but it never gets old. He hits James Jones for another first down, and Denver looks like they're back peddling again.

Two runs net about 1 yard, and it's another 3rd down and long opportunity for the Broncos to get the ball back......

Incomplete. Great pass rush, and Champ Bailey would have gone the other way with that one if not for the hit at the line. Broncos ball at their own five.

Cutler starts out with a fade route to Schef and gets the interference penalty on Atari. Selvin Young gets zippy on first down, and that's your two-minute warning.

Jay Cutler hits Stokley with a 7-yarder on third down, and the Broncos call timeout on 4th and short. This is the game....

Stokley grabs the out on the man to man coverage....great play. Incomplete on first....

HUUUUUUGE Gain by Marshall! 35 yards, and the penalty is on Green Bay! First down Broncos and they're in FG range. SELVIN YOUNG WITH THE RUN OF THE NIGHT!!!! Down to the 3 yard line!!!! Timeout Denver.

Well my computer crapped out at the end of that game so I'll just put up the video, and if it gets taken down it gets taken down.

Elam. Favre. Game. Never bet against him. Ridiculous.

Finally, I am vindicated when I ask why they don't use play action more often (see previous comments).

Packers are not winning this game, Denver is losing this game...and it pisses the fuck out of me.

yes, AA, me thinks...but now that the second coming of J.E. has the ball with a lot of time, this will be great.

I agree with jaws that could be the worse holding call of the night. Thumbs up to Vince Vaughn so far, very funny guy and he's a bears fan!

How the fuck is that a hold on Marshall on that run? Favre must be possessing the refs and throwing holding flags for them.

Fuck the refs...that was such a bullshit call

I don't know what to say...over than that was a great throw and I can't shake the feeling that the game never should've gotten to that point.

Bodjo said...

yup it never should have gotten to that point.

pussified play calling by shannahan on the 15 yard line onwards.

Coaches get paid the big bucks to be scared of losing. And lose because of it.

OK, I don't know if anyone's watching the Post Game Show/SC, but Emmitt was pathetic again.
