Philly played the best of anybody on our offense that game

Pretty unbelievable if you ask me. He's probably our 8th best offensive player and he played better than all of them before going down, in my opinion. This is why we lost. Our entire offense aside from Philly played poorly. Denver's defense is great that is true, but our offense was much better this season than they played on Sunday. As Olsen said, we moved the ball well and then made critical errors at the worst possible times. Shula didn't help out much but I'm not going to blame him because player execution was just as big a factor. Philly played his heart out, got open at will and would have put up 100 yards and a TD (if not for the facemask) if Cam didn't overthrow him a few times and that was before missing most of the second half with a concussion. I honestly like the future of our WR group. They were collectively terrible against the Broncos but with KB, who's a bonafide star receiver and was primed for a dominant season before going down in TC, back and the continued development of Funchess and Philly and having Ginn not forced into a #1 role but in a role where we can utilize his skill set to the fullest, I think this group can be pretty damn good.

Philly and Ealy were probably the 2 brightest spots during the Super Bowl.  I feel really good about our WR corp and our team going into next year.  Philly played his heart out.

And to be honest, I don't think the game had anything to do with heart.  The Broncos had a better game plan, and more importantly, they executed a lot better. Simple and painful as that.

I'll never understand why the coaching staff didn't approach Von Miller with the same regard as JJ Watt.

 

I wrote about that in a post yesterday.  It's like they didn't trust the offensive line early in the season and wanted to make sure we had a gameplan against JJ Watt, but I guess along the way we started playing better and they got deluded into thinking Remmers could hold up against Miller.

This is exactly my feelings as well.  I think the coaching staff went into this game thinking Remmers would be fine against Miller.  I just wish they had some sort of a back up plan in place if that didn't work out ( obviously, it was a big time fail ).

The downfield catch that knocked him out was tremendous, but he did drop a crucial ball across the middle on 3rd down that would've given us a 1st down conversion and probably put us in scoring range if I remember correctly.

He should've caught that but I wouldn't call it a drop. Two Denver guys hit him and one got his arms in there. In the Super Bowl you gotta make those plays though and I was pissed about that (literally screaming at my TV to put him on a plane to Charlotte at halftime or something like that). Aside from that play he was dominating, getting open consistently and catching tough balls like the one he got hurt on.

It's almost as if Denver saw this and told Talib to take him out if he could

I'm not going to loop all over Denver in that but Talib is a disgrace to the league.  Him and Burfict are the 2 dirtiest players in the game.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.

      They will still be a playoff team but they aren't contenders anymore IMO. They won't be able to spend like they have when they went to a SB and proved he couldn't carry a win at that level with a really good team around him. Now he is going to have to do it with less to spend around him. They just locked in to being a playoff bound team that's going to be a known speed bump for whoever will represent the NFC in the SB.

      Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that.  Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.
