    Hackett -- rightly -- is getting torched here this morning. I'm still beyond pissed off. That was the worst end-of-game situation I've ever seen. Unbelieveable.

    The reason I love the Manningcast is it’s watching a person with extreme OCD being forced to watch a toddler knock over their dominoes display they’ve spent 12 hours setting up.

    His post-game was amazing. Completely oblivious to how ridiculous he was in that game

    You got in the horse racing, though, right?

    JFC, Hackett still defending it this afternoon.

    Edit: I opened the presser late and he was still talking about his "plan." He said at the beginning that in hindsight, they should have gone for it.

    No shit, Sherlock.

    Yeah, I think you can draw a pretty straight line between Denver not playing starters at all during the preseason and Seattle's two TDs. Once the Broncos got the rust shaken off, the Seattle offense did little to nothing in the second half. Everyone is talking about the odd call by Denver at the end (and rightly so), but it overshadows the reality that Seattle could easily be as bad as expected. They'll get a good litmus test with San Francisco.

    Geno Smith is getting a lot of credit for that win, when he had 31 yards passing in the second half. Take away his longest pass for 38 yards, and he's at 5.8 YPA, His next longest passes were 15, 18 and 25 yards. If he's still Captain Checkdown, teams are going to catch on pretty quick.
