Phew, I wish I had time to get you guys your full Golden Nuggets tonight, but Aaron is usually the guy who handles the postgame iterations, and I'm usually hard at work getting a bunch of stuff done for SB Nation Bay Area. Instead, I've got to start writing the Nuggets while the game has yet to even reach halftime, but let me just say I love beating these cocky cornerbacks.

Now, Patrick Peterson is a helluva lot more respectful than Richard Sherman, but it still feels good to see Michael Crabtree pick on cornerbacks who think their [site decorum] don't stink, as my grandmother would have put it. At any rate, I'm hoping that when this goes up, I don't look really silly and Peterson didn't end up picking the ball over Crabtree six or seven times in the second half. Post up any links I missed due to the time difference, and hope ya'll are surviving Sandy. Enjoy.
