December 28 at Sports Authority Field in Denver, CO
ESPN
Have a few things to get to from this 20-17 overtime victory for Denver, so we'll take them in list form.
1. Don't refer to Brock Osweiler playing behind Peyton Manning, or any other backup in any other sports situation, as an "apprenticeship". This isn't A Christmas Carol.
2. Jon Gruden, 2nd quarter: "This is a real NFL linebacker."
Well thank goodness for that.
3. Gruden again: "How many ex-Jagwires are playing for other teams?"
The answer is zero, because there's no such thing as a Jagwire.
4. "He's so athletic" was said, as it is often said in various forms.
HERE'S THE THING: every single person on this field, and every single professional person on every field, is athletic.
The End.
5. 3rd quarter, Mike Tirico said "pin your ear back", then quickly corrected himself and said "pin your ears back".
6. Let's get one last Gruden in, shall we?
[Before Denver field goal attempt in overtime] "This is a big one, Mike."
Thanks Jon!
