We are talking about a veteran QB with excellent O-line and multiple passing options. Sherman can't be on the field 4 times at once trash talking every receiver.
Really where does Seattle get their good defense from? Destroying their inter-divisional rivals and trash teams like the Giants and Falcons. They had one truly impressive defensive game outside of well-prepared-for 49ers and that was against the Saints...at home.
They gave up 34 against the Colts and that's child's play compared to Manning. Denver gave up 39 against them but they're not expected to have good defense.
When you look at Denver, they put up big numbers against everybody...good teams...shitty teams...only SD kept them in relative check. The #1 reason why Seattle had the best ranked defense this year was that they didn't have Manning put up 40+ points against them sometime during the regular season...but don't worry, the season's got one more game that matters left in it.
