The Football Educator Podcast NFL Week 15
Hey everyone welcome back to the Football Educator podcast. My name is Sean Kavanaugh and I'm here with Alysen Hargrove and the GM Ted Sundquist.

Hello all, the winds of change are stirring in the NFL. Hey Ted can you hear it howling?

Let talk about the good stuff before we get to the bad OK?

The cream is starting to rise to the top as it always does.
Denver Bronco's, Dallas Cowboys Winners of Week 15
The Denver Broncos looked pretty darned good although I'm not super thrilled with have to kick 5 field goals.

The Broncos 4th straight AFC West title. That’s pretty impressive. To hold Philip Rivers to 10 points.

Did it feel good to have Denver possibly put the final nail in the coffin of San Diego's playoff hopes?

I think the story of the game was the fact that Manning took 4 IV bags of liquid and had a thigh contusion but came back in the 3rd quarter to finish out the game.

Dallas looked pretty good too. Dez Bryant is playing next level 6 catches for 114 and 3 TDs.  I think the fans in Dallas were holding their breaths when they heard DeMarco Murray was dinged up. He broke a bone in his left hand and had surgery on it but expects to play on Sunday.

I think we can all agree that the Dallas' running game has been the key to their success. It's taken the pressure off of Romo.

Dallas's offensive line was nasty. Those boys were getting after it.

As Denver fans you have to be taking a peak over in Foxborough to check out the Pats. Everything seems to be clicking for them right now.

So do you think the Seahawks are beginning to hit their stride?

 

Let take a quick break before we talk about the other half of the NFL and some of it was bad. Don't forget you can hit Ted on twitter at ted_sundquist.
Johnny Manziel is Horrible in His Browns Debut
Welcome back to the football educator podcast. You know there is one other team that looked very good and I didn't mention them because it's so much more fun to talk about the team they stomped on so lets got on with it.

You know there is a reason I haven't brought up the Bengals game. Now we get to talk about NFL bad and there are two teams that took suckage to a new level.

The Bengals looked fantastic against none other than the infamous Johnny Football. Man Ted Manziel looked bad.

Like real bad. It's funny how after a disastrous game the experts start talking about how uncomfortable he looked when he tried to stay in the pocket here is a quote from Greg Cosell wrote Tuesday on Yahoo Sports about Manziel "he lacks any feel for the pocket, has almost no pocket patience and discipline and is very quick to move and play what I call random football outside the structure of the offense" and he went on to question his arm strength saying "he works hard to put any velocity on his throws"

I said before the draft that he was a less athletic RGIII.

He was a project at best and he's proving it. I think he may have a few great games in him but I'll go on record right now and say he won't be in the league very long because unless he stops relying on extending a play with his feet he can't even be a backup in the league.

Do let him take his lumps or do you put Hoyer back in?

You know this is where having someone to ground him would have paid off.

I have to admit I even felt a little bad for him when after every sack, hit or interception the Bengals were flashing the money sign. He's going to get that from every team he plays, every pro is gonna want a piece of him.

So on to more bad.

Breaking News: Jimmy Clausen to start.
Bears Bench Jay Cutler in Favor of Jimmy Clausen
Did you watch the Bears game? Where do you start? It was all just really bad. There was nothing good, it looked to me like a systematic failure. No one was on the same page. The defense was rotten, the offense looked completely out of sync, Cutler was bad again.
