Peyton Manning drops a few heavy ‘Bad News Bears’ quotes
The Minnesota Vikings harass the quarterback, netting six sacks this season, while completely suffocating San Diego’s Philip Rivers last Sunday.
What can the Vikings do to counter Peyton Manning’s brain? Each day we come to work, there’s something that we can work on.
“Those guys are fast and they get off the ball very fast”, Bridgewater said. That is just a fact. Tate said that following all three of his team’s losses, defensive backs have told him that they correctly identified the Lions’ play ahead of the snap. It just adds another dimension.
To say what now resides behind Thomas and Sanders is a step back from the status quo understates the decline. Who and what is making the defense look so good through the first three games?
Stafford was 31 of 45 for 282 yards with a 16-yard TD pass to Ameer Abdullah in the third quarter, two interceptions and a fumble on a play in which he had at least once chance to throw the ball away.
“We’re still learning every week because you’re getting a new challenge because you’re playing a different type of defense”. Granted, it turns out that he was hurt for the tail end of last season, but when his struggles carried into 2015, it looked like we were witnessing the beginning of the end for one of the greatest players in National Football League history. “I think it’s the same as what they’re doing in Denver now with the pistol”. Aqib Talib, Chris Harris Jr., and Bradley Roby all have the kind of talent you like in a #1 CB.
Coach Mike Zimmer has also taken notice of his quarterback’s steady progress, most notably just in the past two weeks after the disappointing season opener in which Zimmer openly criticized Bridgewater’s performance.
Von Miller said: “Roby is a superstar”. Our whole plan is to get after every quarterback so they’re not comfortable.
While the defense is off to a great start, the running game is not. Manning’s footwork reflected his confidence in the offensive line’s improvement. Anderson to blame as well? “The Broncos’ Bud Light Twitter vending machine offers a powerful combination of mystery gifts and technology our fans haven’t seen before”. The chemistry is not there and they need to improve in a big way. He’s had more success just because he can outrun the defenders on stretch plays. “Run the ball next, then the passing game complemented that”, Elway said.
Ronnie Hillman is really ready to break out at running back. “In the pistol we can keep everything balanced”. He’s probably not the best free safety in the game, but he’s the best we’ve had in the past decade for sure. “We made a couple plays”.
What do you think the final score will be on Sunday? “Some phases might be doing a little more than others, but I don’t think you win many games if all three phases aren’t contributing in a few way”.
