I feel a changing in the wind. LOL The Texans can easily lose another game or 2 playing the Colts twice and The Vikes with Peterson go hog wild. I feel a changing in the wind. LOL

They may not have the best defensive ranking but they always seem to rise to the occasion for big games. Texans looked pedestrian and put up no challenge at all last night. As sndvl, mentioned the road to the SB most likely will go thru NE. Brady now gets to play his childhood favorite Team, (49ers) as he grew up in the bay area. Go Niners!!! Texans can't afford to lose one more game or they give up their #1 seed, and play divsion rival Indy twice in the last 3 weeks....(provided Pats win out). Texans other game is vs. Jags. Broncos just need to win out and let the cards fall where they may. Have a feeling this will come down to a Brady/Manning rematch. Would love for that to happen in Denver. The playoffs are always a new season, so anything can happen. GO BRONCOS!!!!! Just as most of us thought, Tom Brady and the Pats can dissect just about any defense in the league.

Lots of football to be played still. And N.E. looks tough as ever but I'm confident in Peyton Manning and our Broncos. There's still different scenarios that can play out. Heck, even Houston can slip to the #3 seed. That would be a wild thing to happen. Whats next? Well, the Texans got rocked last night! Lots of football to be played still.

Lots of good points made. I have blinders on cuz if they did not play for my Broncos then they do not qualify. So mine is John Elway, Peyton Manning, Jake the Snake Plummer, Craig Morton. So when do we start carving their faces into Pikes Peak. LOL. Just kidding. ILMSDB FTR Looks like it’s who is the best all time QB derby! Lots of good points made.

I will argue all day that Brady fans have to prove why he is the best ever, we don't have to prove why he's not. I'm all for loving your QB, but being a homer will discredit theories very quickly. I could make a very strong case for Elway as the best QB to ever play, and maybe he was, but it's too difficult as the era of the QB must be taken into consideration and thus makes it an impossible feat. I will say again, Elway is pretty close to #3 all-time and Brady isn't close to Elway...so, Theory of Brady as the best is proved incorrect. Brian,

Guys like Elway, Marino, Montana, those guys played in an era where the life expectancy of a QB was far less than it is now. There was no Brady rule, or if you touch the QB it's roughing the passer. You could have defenders tee off on your WR, there were no rules to protect them. No I'm not saying the QBs of today aren't great but if the only thing you can compare between players that played in two different eras is stats on paper..that's it. Even then it doesn't tell the whole story. Rules have changed, refs have gotten flag happy. Everything the league implements is to protect and aid the offense. So the QBs of today should be great, heck you can't touch them, and you can't touch the WRs so why wouldn't it become a passing league?? Anyway something some people overlook when comparing players espeically QBs is when they played. Just think of guys like Brady, Newton, or RG3 back when roughing the passer was almost a non existent call. Now think of guys like Elway, Montana, and Marino in today's game when the QB is so protected.
