I have been looking at the long range weather models and it looks like weather could be a very big factor for that weekend.

This sucker is Rocky III...Broncos are the pretty team who kinda coasted into the Super Bowl, but have all the names, glitz and are probably nearing the end of their run, ala Rocky and the Hawks are Clubber Freaking Lang. Nasty, scary, hungry...they don't just want to beat you...they play like they want to KILL you.

Should be a fascinating matchup of complete polar opposite squads. I hope Manning wins. I hate Carrol and the douches up in Seattle. But that D is going to get to Peyton and if they can rattle him and hit him, I wouldn't be surprised to see them win in a rout.

I'm thinking the Broncos win. Seattle didn't have a strong pass rush vs the Niners. Could give Manning lots of time.

Our defense showed how easy it was to play the midget, contain, stay, don't over pursue and take away his running ability. Play him high, get your hands up on every throw. Broncos defense can handle this task, the greeon defense might hang for a minute, but it all depends on which Peyton shows up. I think the Broncos win this one.

If the Seattle offense plays like this, they may lose big.

Well unfortunately for us the Broncos D isn't as good as the hers not even close. They lost like 4 more players to various injuries today too. Hopefully none of them are too bad.

Denver's D is not as good, but they're no slouch, either.

Plus, the rate at which Peyton is getting the ball off, Seattle is going to have a tough time dialing up pressure.

With the way the midget has been playing, I expect a lot of Marshawn. Harvin should be back, again, and will be lucky to last 5 minutes. Broncos don't handle the pass to well, ranked like 27th, so maybe Seattle will try and air it out.

A couple of interesting nuggets:

1) The first time in many years its two #1 seeds in the SB

2) NFL's #1 offense vs NFL's #1 defense

After watching Sherman's idiotic post game interview, I hope Manning lights him like a Christmas tree.

Gotta go with Denver. Don't think Seattle can put enough pressure on Manning and I don't care how great Sherman thinks he is, Peyton with time will torch anyone, anywhere.... If he wins, he would be the first QB in history to win a SB with two different teams!!! Go Denver!!!
