Broncos will take close look at hit on Manning
 

The moment at which Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning busted his thumb nail on the helmet of Saints defensive end Martez Wilson didn’t violate any rules. The next moment possibly did.

Wilson’s helmet went into Manning’s chest. Even though the flag remained in the referee’s pocket, the Broncos will take a close look at the play.

“It’ll be something we look at and get the TV copy,” Broncos coach John Fox said Monday, via the Associated Press. “We haven’t done all that yet. And I’m not really able to comment on what we turn into the league and what we don’t, but that’s one we’ll look at closely.”

We have. Though it wasn’t quite a helmet-to-the-chin, Wilson struck Manning with a helmet. It should have been flagged, and it should be fined.

Though it likely will cost Wilson something less than the price of two million pizzas, it won’t be cheap.

Are you ***n kiing me?!? He did not hit him with the top of his helmet he hit Manning in the chest with the face-mask... That is called form tackling.

It was a perfect tackle, mannings arm came down after throwing the ball and hit his helmet

How the hell can we be responsible for that?

Look at that photo, it shows our teams stupidity

We got pressure on manning, 2 guys on the left receiver going up the field and he still catches it

Middle linebacker atleast 5 yard away from the receiver coming across his zone, galette just sat on the floor and no pressure from the backside

Embarrassing

This kinda stuff is gonna follow us everywhere now. Get used to it. You think this is bad, just wait for the Falcons to start in with this type of stuff with the refs when we p
lay them.

That hit was totally fine. Does Fox still hold a grudge against us from his years with Carolina? They never seem to stop whining.

The only group that should be complaining about our hits (or lack thereof) in that game are Saints fans, because that was some serious weak sauce.

The Saints should complain about the non-call on the horsecollar tackle on Darren Sproles!!

Re: Broncos will take close look at hit on Manning
 

I think a towel boys helper mentioned that it was planned to hit Peyton mannings thumb with someone helmet.
Roger Goodell has all the information needed... expect more suspenions by Friday

Oh, c'mon man!

Re: Broncos will take close look at hit on Manning
 

Wilson should be moved back toLB'er and draft a DE.

Re: Broncos will take close look at hit on Manning
 

I do agree the hit seemed fine, but why would Fox hold a grudge? He's owned us for years now. I think it's more the fact that we're going to have this stigma for years now, and with the Prized Manning at their helm, they are going to watch everything closely....
