Broncos to play Saturday Jan 12, 4:30 eastern - Page 2 - The Orange Mane

Al Wilson · 12-30-2012, 10:22 PM

Anyone else think the Bungals will beat the Texans? I think they will, they have a good team

yakyakyuk · 12-30-2012, 10:38 PM

Cincy is a pretty good road team - they won more games on the road than home this year (6-2 road, 4-4 home).

Their front four on D are good - and they plan the run very tough. They should be able to force Schaub to beat them - the current blueprint to beat Texans.

I would not be surprised to see the Broncos play Cincy, and New England play Baltimore in the divisional round.

We have dinner over at the neighbors house that evening (I'm on the east coast, so right about kickoff). Looks like DVR and try to avoid any news/phone/etc until I can watch it.

This is my hope. That Baltimore goes to NE. Even though the Ratbirds won't win.....hopefully, their physical defense will beat the Pats up a bit before the AFC title game.

Smilin Assassin · 12-31-2012, 08:32 AM

If somehow Indy beats Balt, and Hou beats Cinnci......

I know Indy is playing great ball right now, but......

Manning vs Indy is almost poetic.

frerottenextelway · 12-31-2012, 08:48 AM

I've seen a lot of cinci, they are crap. Hopefully they get a miracle against Houston. Baltimore is the only team that is any kind of threat for our first game.

Tombstone RJ · 12-31-2012, 08:54 AM

Love it! Looking forward to the Saturday afternoon game.

BroncoBeavis · 12-31-2012, 08:59 AM

Colts would be a big storyline. Not sure I want that in our first game.

We don't have to drive there (right next door), so no radio to worry about. I can (and will) turn off my phone, or better yet, leave it at home. they won't have the TV on over there. I'm going to give it a try, can't remember the last time I didn't see a Bronco playoff game live.

El Guapo · 12-31-2012, 10:38 AM

Fack, I have to work.

At least I have a 60" flatscreen in my office that'll be dedicated to the game.

Is this what dinner looks like at the neighbors'?

Even if you manage all that, the temptation to get a peak of whats going on during the game will be too much...

I know, it's going to be rough, but I think I can do it. We'll see how I feel after the Wildcard rounds this week. Nothing like playoff football.

My neighbor is a hunter and a huge Florida State fan (they drive a few hours just to tailgate at the games) they're planning on making some venison meatloaf. So yeah, it'll look just like that

extralife · 12-31-2012, 11:31 AM

I'll be rooting for Houston and Indy. I want that Colts game bad.

whatever the over/under for Peyton's stats in that game would be, I'm taking the over. It's all on the table, he could throw 7 TDs

Its actually a pretty good match up for us. They cant run for ****, and Luck holds on to the ball all friggin day. Good luck doing that against VonDoom

Dude, just reschedule. You're two weeks out. Its dinner with the neighbors and how often are the Broncos hosting playoff games?

If they dont understand that, get new friends.

Just trying to picture the kind of people who'd try to host a football-less dinner during a Divisional Round Saturday night.

Yeah, that's a good point. But I don't see many on-paper matchup worries with the 3 teams we could possibly play. If there's a breakdown, it will be mental, so it would be nice to save all the drama for Brady.

I DVR every game, and have been for a long time, it's easy to do. Just make sure you have no access to your phone, the worse is someone calling you and they don't know you are DVRing and open conversation with, "the Broncos are looking..." It just takes some will but it's doable, good luck, let us know how it turns out.

Atwater His Ass · 12-31-2012, 03:53 PM

DVR'ing the game is the only way I can stand to watch anymore with all the ridiculously long and frequent commercial breaks. Live games are getting to be worse than a baseball game.
