Superbowl : Denver vs Seattle , who you got and why

[New Zealands #1 Colts Fan]

I know there is still 2 weeks to go but who have you got and why????

 

Denver 24-21, Peyton has too many weapons and i dnt trust wilson in a big game yet, Of course if Seattle defense gets a td it could be a different story

[oldunclemark]

What's the weather...?

 

In an ice storm....I'd go with Seattle

[chad72]

I'll give my prediction the day of

[oldunclemark]

     Russell Wilson is so difficult to predict...

[jjcolts]

I would be sick to my stomach if Seattle wins the SB....just SICK.

[CR91]

Seattle. No way that defense lets Peyton stand back and pick them apart.

[buffalo34]

I don't know, that Seattle team outright scares me....that defense is just plain nasty and I think it could cause problems for Peyton.

 

It'll come down to whether or not Wilson will struggle in the SB and if the Broncos' D can make a play or two...

 

Advantage for Broncos is that this won't have to be played in Seattle, so maybe the Hawks won't be totally indestructible (still will be incredibly tough). Also I think crowd may play a factor, a pro-Seahawks crowd would also give an edge to the Hawks.

 

Right now I'm giving a very slight edge to the Seahawks...

[CCH]

34-23 Denver. Its Peyton's year, Seattle's defense won't stop him. I don't think the Seahawks are nearly as invincible on the road

Seattle. No way that defense lets Peyton stand back and pick them apart.

Name an excellent pocket passer they beat. None.

Drew Brees is complete garbage outside of the Superdome.

Not to mention they won't be in Seattle. Which they aren't good outside of themselves.

[Bluefire4]

Gonna be a tough game. Seattle has one of the best defenses I've ever seen. I'll give it to the Broncos though because they won't be in Seattle.

[oldunclemark]

That's true..they are just a different team....away from home....

Tom Brady last year

Right now, I'm saying Seattle. Ask me again in a couple of weeks when the game is actually here, but I remember calling it after my team got embarrassed by them back in September. I was convinced after seeing their fight and Russell Wilson's skill that they were going to win the Super Bowl this year.

[markabrown96]

Seeing how Seattle has to travel to the east coast away from thei stadium, I would take Broncos. Peyton is on a mission right now

[Fx Stryker]

Tom Brady last year

Last year doesn't matter. Seattle has played one good quarterback, Luck.

[CR91]

Last year doesn't matter. Seattle has played one good quarterback, Luck.

Its basically the same defense

[GoColts8818]

I'll take Denver.  Seahawks are not the sameteam away from home and I'll take the QB and Coach who have Super Bowl experience over the two that don't. 

[chad72]

Tom Brady last year

Yeah, 24-23, barely at home

If you take care of the ball vs Seahawks, you can pull out a close one on neutral field

[Coltsince4]

Just the way it should be!! Best Offence VS best defense!! Now we shall see if the saying is true, That defense wins championships???? 

[Fx Stryker]

Its basically the same defense

Who do you trust more:

Peyton vs the LoB. Or the Seahawks vs the Denver D.

Keep in Denver's weakness is pass defense, and are excellent against the run. Perfect matchup against the Seahawks.

I win is a win and that was Wilson's rookie year

I think Seattle will be favored....outdoors in bad weather

That best way to beat Peyton is to get after him and Seattle has countless rushers

[jvan1973]

Seattle. No way that defense lets Peyton stand back and pick them apart.

If they blitz Peyton, he won't mess his pants like kaep did

[Le Neon]

Pick the veteran qb (Denver), unless there's a blizzard. Should be a great strength on strength matchup between an elite secondary and one of the best passing attacks in history.

[Jules]

I think they will want Peyton to win it all and have the ultimate glory year, better league story. But, Seattle also has an IOU from 2005. NFC West teams are mess with them teams in the SB though it seems in recent years.

 

I guess Denver right now......but if it's beyond freezing or snowing it could be a toss up. I will say Denver though at the moment since it seems like it's falling into place over there in the mountains.

 

Not really nailing this postseason though outside a few games this year....ouch.

[indy1888]

I think Seattle's D could cause problems for the passing game for the Broncos.  I just don't know what to expect out of the Seahawks offense.  Was not overly impressed with them today but that was against a very good 9er defense as well.   If Wilson and Lynch play well i think Seattle takes it.

Is there a roof on Met Life? I don't think they're going to let the snow in though Mark  

[Fx Stryker]

Yea, they are good at bringing a blitz, but Peyton never struggled against a blitz. Seattle needs to rush 4 and drop 7. And their front four is nothing great. That defense is about those DBs.

[CR91]

If they blitz Peyton, he won't mess his pants like kaep did

no, but they will move him from his spot and mess up his timing

[jvan1973]

no, but they will move him from his spot and mess up his timing

I guess you forgot how good he is against the blitz.

[Poster X]

I have my money on the refs.

[CR91]

The idea is to make Peyton hold the ball make him move and there isn't a better secondary

[CR91]

[Fx Stryker]

Yea, make him hold the ball and get pressure with the front four. Seattle doesn't get pressure with their front four. They need to send blitzers, and once they send the extra guy there is the hole Peyton needs.

[chad72]

The thing you have to worry about the Seahawks is their penchant for cheap shots. Their WRs hit dirty, they take shots inside piles, IMO. If they're falling on someone in a pile, to me it seems like they fall down to hurt folks in a pile. To an extent they're going into the SB much like Gregg Williams' D of the Saints went into the SB in 2009

Ravens last year took out the RBs in both the Broncos and Pats games if you noticed, it's just in the nature of certain Ds, just to throw in an extra oomph shot while the whistle and sometimes a tad after the whistle is blown

[CR91]

Guess we'll see in 2 weeks

Nope. No roof. If it's snowing or raining they will get wet.

[lennymoore24]

Denver will win this by a couple of scores.   Seattles offense is too limited.  Denver is playing very well.  They are stopping the run.  If you take away the Seattle run, they can't do much.  Denver will slice their defense apart.  Look what Luck did to them.

[MAC]

Is there a roof on Met Life? I don't think they're going to let the snow in though Mark

No. That's why they're calling it the first cold weather super bowl.

 

Forecast right now is 36 in afternoon (16 overnight, so game time is somewhere in between). Cloudy and possibly rain/snow.
