DOESN'T SEE ANYTHING HE LIKES AND EVENTUALLY MICHAEL CRABTREE GONNA OPEN UP. THERE HE IS. NICE. STILL HAVING THE SAME CHEMISTRY HE HAD WITH CRABTREE LAST YEAR SEEMS LIKE EARLY ON. CRABTREE INITIALLY OPEN BUT.. YEA. AND IT'S CALLED SCRAMBLE DRILL. WE CALL THAT PLASTERING. JONATHAN BANKS, A YOUNG CORNERBACK, NEEDS TO LEARN HOW TO PLASTER BUT HE'S GOT A LOT OF TIME. ALL THAT SHAKING AND ...IT'S TOUGH TO STAY WITH A GUY THAT LONG. 2ND QUARTER, 2ND DOWN 15. KAEPERNICK AGAIN BUYING EXTRA TIME. LOOKING FOR VERNON DAVIS. DID YOU SEE THE FLICK OF THE WRIST? THAT WAS PRACTICE FOR WHAT WE'RE GONNA SEE LATER. JUST A PRACTICE THROW. I THINK IT'S COMING UP RIGHT NOW. THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST THROW OF THE DAY. YES. FROM HIS OWN 40. T HIS IS A 63 YD. STRIKE. LASER. OUTSIDE. NOBODY COULD CATCH THE BALL. NOW HOW MANY T.E.'S CAN YOU SEE BEAT A SAFETY AND THEY'RE RUNNING DOWN THE FOOTBALL FIELD CATCHING A POST-ROUTE? VERNON DAVIS IS PROBABLY 1 OF MAYBE 2 OR 3. HE'S THE ONLY...HOW MANY GUYS CAN DO THIS. RAN A 4.2 AT THE COMBINES OR A 4.3 SOMETHING. YEA, I'D SAY HE QUALIFIED. FULL SPEED INTO THE WALL. HAD A HARD TIME MAKING IT TO HIS FEET. HE DID REMAIN IN THE GAME. EXACTLY. NEXT BUCS DRIVE. MIKE GLENNON TO HIS LEFT. THERE'S TIMOTHY WRIGHT. GOT HIM FOR 26. TIMOTHY WRIGHT COMING INTO HIS OWN. MADE SOME PLAYS TODAY. BUT WHO IS HIS FAVORITE RECEIVER? V. JACK. YES SIR. JACKSON HAVING A NICE SEASON. PLENTY OF TIME FOR GLENNON. NICE. HE DROVE THAT THING IN THERE. THAT KEPT THE DEFICIT TO 10. IT'S 17-7. HEADING INTO THE HALFTIME L.R. INTO THE 4TH QUARTER NOW. BUCS TRAILING 20-7. HERE'S THAT MAN AGAIN. TIMOTHY WRIGHT. STEPPING UP INTO A NICE POCKET. GOT HIM FOR 24. WHEN YOU EVALUATE THE T.B. BUCS, THEY'RE AS TALENTED UP AND DOWN THAT ROSTER AS ANY TEAM. WELL, NO QUESTION, IN THE NFL. THEY GOT QUESTION MARKS AT QB AND HE'S A NICE YOUNG ... HE'S PLAYING WELL. HE'S SHOWING PROMISE. HE'S SOWING HE CAN MANAGE THE GAME. LOOK AT COLIN KAEPERNICK THERE. THAT WAS 3RD DOWN & 12. GETTING THE EXTRA TIME AND THE ATHLETIC THROW TO MICHAEL CRABTREE. WITHOUT WATCHING SOMETHING ON THAT LAST PLAY JAMIE THOUGH, THE TALENT, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH IT NEEDS TO BE COACHED THE RIGHT WAY BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE ALL THAT TALENT YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE GUYS BUSTING COVERAGE’S LIKE THAT RUNNING WIDE OPEN LIKE THAT. KAEPERNICK THERE. THAT WAS MORE 3RD DOWN SUCCESS. 3RD DOWN & 6. HE GETS 10. LED TO A F.G. TO MAKE IT 23-14. BAD SIDE YOU'RE SHOWING SPECIAL TEAMS. WOW. THEY'RE TRYING TO GET A LITTLE CUTE. BACK TO COACHING. BOTCHED THE EXCHANGE THERE. YOU KNOW WHO THE SPECIAL TEAMS COACH IS DOWN THERE? WHO'S THAT? WANNSTEDT. HE'S A B.C.S. GUY. YES HE IS. KENDELL HUNTER WITH THE TD. THERE AND THE NINERS 33-14. WARREN SAPP SAID SOMETHING VERY INTERESTING ABOUT THIS TEAM. TAMPA WOULD FIND OUT TODAY WHAT IT WAS LIKE, HOW FAR THEY WERE FORM THE BOTTOM OF THE NFC WILDCARD PICTURE. AND I THINK THAT GAME SHOWED YOU THEY GOT A LITTLE WAYS TO GO. THEY GOT A TALENTED TEAM, TO YOUR POINT. A LOT OF TALENT ON THE TEAM. AS TALENTED AS ANY TEAM IN THAT DIVISION. BUT THIS SHOWS YOU KIND OF HOW THE ...I WOULDN'T SAY WILDCARD. THAT'S A S.B. CHAMP. TEAM. BUT TODAY THAT TEAM SITS AS THE 5TH OR 6TH SEED IN THE WILDCARD RACE. YEA, THAT'S FOR THIS YEAR. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. WHERE THEY ARE THIS YEAR. WELL THEY WEREN'T EXPECTED TO MAKE TO THE PLAYOFFS THIS YEAR. SO THAT'S MORE OF A COMPARISON ON A CHAMP.-CALIBER TEAM, HOW FAR AWAY WE ARE FROM THEM.
1:40:43;28 - SAN DIEGO CHARGERS @ DENVER BRONCOS
PEYTON MANNING COMING IN WITH 45 TDS. IT WASN'T TOO LONG BEFORE ...BEFORE TD. #46 CAME ABOUT; AND IT'S ANDRE CALDWELL WHO'S FILLING IN FOR WES WELKER STEVE. YEA, AND HE HAD BIG SHOES TO FILL WITH WES WELKER, AND HE DELIVERED BECAUSE HE HAD A FEW CATCHES FOR A COUPLE DIFFERENT TDS. NICE 1ST QUARTER DRIVE. LOOK AT THAT ROUTE. THE POST CORNER. CLEAN POCKET. YEA, CLEAN FEET. AND THE CORNER BIT ON THE POST-ROUTE, AND THAT’S AN EASY TD. MANNING WAS 4 OF 5 FOR 56 YDS. AS THE BRONCOS HAD A 7TH TD. IN THEIR OPENING DRIVE THIS SEASON. THAT'S THE MOST IN THE NFL. AND THE CHARGERS WERE SETTLING FOR F.G.'S IN THE MEANTIME UNTIL THE 2ND QUARTER WHEN KEENAN ALLEN GOES ACROSS THE MIDDLE THROUGH THE RED ZONE AND THEN LEAPING HIS WAY IN. WHAT A PLAY IRV. MAN, WHAT A PLAY. HE' A BEAST MAN. HE PLAYS HARD. WE JUST GOT A CHANCE TO TALK WITH HIM, COACH AND I, AND THIS KID IS REALLY PLAYING WELL. UP AND OVER, CAVON WEBSTER TO GET IN THE END ZONE AS HE BURSTS...BULL RUSHES THROUGH MIKE ADAMS TO TIE THE SCORE AT 10. THEN 2 CHARGERS POSSESSIONS LATER, THIS WAS HUGE AS THEY CONVERTED A TD. TO KEENAN ALLEN RIGHT BEFORE THE END OF THE HALF TO GO UP 1 SCORE; AND THEN THEY GOT THE BALL TO START THE 2ND HALF. YEA, WE TALK ABOUT KEENAN ALLEN AND I SAID, "WATCH HIM. HE'S A LOT LIKE ANQUAN BOLDEN. HE WILL GO UP AND BRING THAT BALL DOWN." WHAT NIGHT FOR RYAN MATTHEWS, MARSHALL FAULK. WHAT A NIGHT FOR HIM. THE KID REALLY SHOWED UP TONIGHT. AND ..THIS. IN ORDER TO CONTROL THE BALL AND CONTROL THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, 29 RUSHES TONIGHT. 127. THAT'S DRAWING UP BIG WHEN YOU'RE ON THE ROAD. AND A 23 YD. DASH TO THE HOUSE RIGHT THERE. HIS 3RD RUSHING TD. IN 4 GAMES. 4TH & 6. THE BRONCOS HAD TO GO FOR IT WITH 12 MINS. TO GO. DOWN 2 SCORES. AND THERE'S ANDRE CALDWELL ONCE AGAIN. BROTHER OF RASHA, EVERYBODY. COMING UP BIG. HIS BODY ON THAT BALL MAKING A PLAY. AND THIS WAS THE WES WELKER-TYPE ROUTE THAT CALDWELL RAN TO PERFECTION TO GET IN THE END ZONE TO MAKE IT A 1 SCORE GAME. ENSUING CHARGERS POSSESSION. 6 MINS. TO GO, 3RD & 1, AND RYAN MATTHEWS IS STOPPED AND MIKE MCCOY PUNTED THE BALL TO DENVER; AND YOU BEGAN TO GET THAT FEELING THAT IT WAS GONNA HAPPEN AGAIN TO THE CHARGERS. UP 2 SCORES AGAINST DENVER ONLY TO WATCH DENVER TIE THE SCORE, MAYBE WIN THE GAME. BUT MANNING IS HIT AS HE THROWS ON THE ENSUING POSSESSION, AND THOMAS KAISER IS THE ONE WHO COMES DOWN WITH IT, AND CORY LEGET WAS THE ONE WHO HIT PEYTON AS HE THREW. BUT IT ALMOST SEEMED LIKE IT WAS AN INCONSISTENCY IN THE ROUTE OR SOMETHING. PEYTON HELD THE BALL FOR A COUPLE SECONDS. IT SEEMED LIKE 1, 2, 3, GET IT OUT. YEA.
1:43:22;04 - NEW ORLEANS SAINTS @ ST. LOUIS RAMS

YEA, THERE WERE 3 GUYS ON THAT RECEIVER THERE. THEY' PROBABLY LIKE TO HAVE THAT ONE BACK. LED TO ANOTHER RAMS TD. AND A 14-ZIP LEAD. ENSUING RAMS KICKOFF. YOUNG ... AS THEY LIKE TO CALL IT. AND WE GOT AN ONSIDE KICK! I LOVE THIS! GREAT EXECUTION OF PLAY. THEY DID IT IN THE S.B. A FEW YEARS AGO, RIGHT? GOOD CALL. RECOVERED BY STEADMAN BAILEY. THE OTHER ROOKIE OUT OF WEST VIRGINIA ON THAT TEAM. 2ND QUARTER. BREES. IT'S ONE OF THOSE GUYS WE HAVEN'T TALKED A LOT ABOUT THIS YEAR. ROBERT QUINN. WHAT A YEAR HE'S HAD. YEA. WE REMEMBER THESE 2 DEF. ENDS, QUINN AND LONG, COMING AGAINST RUSSELL WILSON OVER THERE. THEY CAN PUT IT ON YOU NOW. SIANTHAD TO SETTLE FOR A F.G. THEY AT LEAST GOT ON THE BOARD. BUT 2 RAMS POSSESSIONS LATER, ZACK STACY. HE’S' ON MY FANTASY TEAM. I WAS WONDERING WHAT ... YOU BETTER WIN THE WHOLE THING WITH YOUR FANTASY TEAM THIS YEAR. YOU GOT A HECK OF A FANTASY TEAM.
