Getting this started early. HUGE game this weekend in New England. I've been taking this season with a cautious approach. This game will tell us if this years Broncos are truly as good as the hype we are getting. The Pats have owned us in NE last year's choke job up there on SNF stills pisses me off. Get this win here and it sets us up for a chance for the number 1 seed in the AFC.
 
Everybody will talk about Manning v. Brady and the offenses but I think the winner will be decided Sunday but which defense steps up.

Broncos will take a huge step towards AFC home field with a win. They'll be up three games on NE and Indy due to head to head wins over both. The Broncos next four games after Sunday are Dolphins, Bills, Raiders and the Rams so the schedule lightens up. Win Sunday and then feast on some overmatched teams for a month

Agreed. Which team can generate pressure up the middle will be the big deciding factor. Manning and Brady are pretty good about stepping up in the pocket and getting the ball out quick if pressure comes from the edge, but when it's coming right up the middle they can't move fast enough to avoid the rush.

I think I like the Broncos for this one but Gillette Stadium is a hell of a tough place to get a win on the road.

Right because Colorado where he's been playing the last three years has a climate similar to the Bahamas

I actually live in Denver, so I'm familiar with the climate. It's supposed to be low 40s in Foxboro this weekend, and I don't think Peyton's had a game this cold since he told everyone to stop talking about him playing in the cold. I'm just curious to see if he has a monster game.

He'll be throwing a lot, especially if Hillman is limited or can't go. That will be something to watch for - if Denver's third running back can't help out with pass protection then the Broncos are in all kinds of trouble.

suppose to be 30-40 mph wind gusts. If true, this helps the Broncos. Pats suck at running d, denver one of the top in the league in stopping it, plus the pats ground game is very shaky.

Is Ryan Tannehill the best quarterback ever?
