Now, are the chances "rare" for Big Ben because of the rapes or something on the field? I get confused, we should support rapists as long as they win rings?

Was listening to a radio program and they were talking about how the Broncos' defensive players said that Carolina didn't do anything differently than what was on the film. As a result, they knew what they were going to do! If that's true I would be troubled by this. Two weeks to prepare and not one new wrinkle to the game plan? This is bigger than Cam.

Yup, and how many times did they try the same thing and have it not work during the game with no change of plan?

Having Stewart or Tolbert run the ball for a 0 yard gain. Have the same O-line fail over and over and get Cam wrecked?

It feels like you could've just recorded 2 minutes of the game and played it on repeat 30 times and seen the Super Bowl.

Our defense did their job. The offense made too many mistakes and did not change their game plan at all, after seeing how Denver was playing.

so Barry Sanders wasn't a good RB because he never won a SB? Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, Warren Moon weren't great QB's because they didn't win a ring?

you were 100% wrong dude. You never predicted Can would go 17-1 and make a SB and not recover a fumble due to being selfish. All your preditions had Cam out of the league in 5 years after bouncing around the league due to being a poor QB and a poor leader.

In the interview you linked today, if you listened to it you would hear his teammates having his back and showing nothing but love and support for him.

sorry tread, once again you are WRONG about Cam.

not even going to talk about Ben and Tomlin because it has nothing to do with this conversation. Cam isn't Ben. He doesn't have a SB ring yet but he has a Heisman, SEC Championship, College Championship, Rookie of the Year award, Pro Bowl, NFL MVP and countless records and just had a 15-1 season.

It's pretty weird for you to be on here talking about how you were right about Cam.

Actually, it's delusional and narcissist of you to talk like this. I think you dislike Can because you have a lot of the same characteristics you accuse him of having.

it's because you hate him.

look, I get it, I dislike Tom Brady and it brings me boy when he loses.

However, only the truly obsessed spend days breaking down facial expressions or find gifs of him cursing our the refs to prove he is a miserable person in real life.

it's one thing to not like an athlete but its another to dislike the person you don't really know based on a play or 2 in a 60 minute game.

but I get it, it's sports and when fanatics hate a guy they go overboard with the hate to a point where they no longer sound reasonable.

If Cam stiffed you on a tip, spit in your face, stole your girl I could relate but all he has done is get drafted by the Panthers and play the game the way he feels like he should play it and he has a ton of success doing it his way.

You don't have to like it but you can't make up a alternate reality to twist him into a bad football player.

To the coaches credit, our offense has "worked" all year so what's not to think it will have that many problems in the SB? I agree that a wrinkle here or there or to have a package to help get the ball out quicker if their ends are eating up our tackles (which they were) would make total sense. I didn't see that at all but I rather give credit to the Broncos defense. They absolutely played their game plan to a T and beat us. I think we tried to do what we did all year and it just didn't work. Sometimes games are like that unfortunately.

IMO that wasn't the offense that worked all year in the SB. They usually run Cam more and have more misdirection. I think the biggest problem was no half time adjustments after seeing the O struggle vs the pass rush.
