WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT GOD AND SPORTS I ALWAYS THINK BACK TO PHIL ESPOSITO WHEN HE PLAYED FOR THE BRUINS AND THEY HAD BUMPER STICKERS THAT READ
JESUS SAVES
AND ESPOSITO SCORES ON THE REBOUND

All of this certainty Seattle will get to Peyton makes me laugh.
He is gonna screen them to death and when they start backing off the pressure Moreno will hit them big.Comment -
Home field advantage.
Comment -
Peyton is not mobile. Screens work on blitzes but seattle doesnt blitz much. With the extra time to prepare and as smart as Peyton is you have to figure they will have a lot of hot short routes in place.
Key to the game is which offense can stay on the field and grind down the others defense.Comment -
John, they run those slip screens to perfection. Those are the screens I was referring to. Sherman wont be able to stop every Denver WR.Comment -
Manning is not God. God is Manning.Comment -
First off, I corrected myself and stated that what I was intending to say was "he had phenomenal stuff." So you can continue to reach with one point to point towards my "lack of knowledge."
Yes, a combination of walks and home runs led to an inflated ERA. Many times he had less hits than IP.
And people do realize that 7's were available, as well as books offering to buy it down from -115 -- -125.
Slacker, you're just upset because I proved how you manipulated the numbers to better suit what you support.
Bobby, why anyone would pay you the time of day is beyond me. Your lack of knowledge is evident, and your homerism dominates any type of thought process you may possess, if any.

you made the statement chief...not me.....my lack of knowledge is not evident to anyone but yourself....because i continue to point out your misguided ways.....you manipulate numbers to support an argument just as much as the next guyFirst off, I corrected myself and stated that what I was intending to say was "he had phenomenal stuff."

somewhere in your head is the belief that ryan mallett would have won 10 games at the helm of the pats this year....and doug flutie could have won 3 superbowls with the patriots in the early 2000's....
you claim that brady has had way better defenses through his career...yet a DVOA efficiency ratings says there isnt much seperating their defenses throughout their careersComment -
Actually, basically every point I've given regarding why Manning is far superior to Brady has stumped you, you always reach to the same one or two points.
Just admit it, you're a Brady homer. I do enjoy watching Manning play, but I'm not even a fan of the Broncos, I've been an Eagles fan since day one.
You only address the points that better suit your argument, the entire picture is thrown out because overall, your arguments aren't very well thought out.
Regarding Dice K, I corrected myself as soon as I realized I made the error, yet you keep reaching to a point that we established was worded wrong. That's certainly called reaching.Comment -
San Diego showed the formula to beat Denver, and Arizona showed the way to beat Seattle...the problem is, Denver doesn't have the defense that Arizona had...when Denver receivers are jammed at the line the rhythm of the timing routes that manning owns is disrupted and the offense begins to sputter - if Demaryius Thomas gets off the line freely and is even or past the DB then that ball is complete everytime, you simply have to jam these guys at the line....this is the natural type of coverage that Seattle's DB's play, physical at the line, it is a good matchup for them
Time of possession for Seattle will be key, as we saw Peyton struggles to get into a flow when he is off the field for 15 minute stretches
Peyton's arm strength is not what it once was, we have all seen his once spiralling fastballs growing tails lately - you cannot throw things up against this Seattle secondary - last team to lead the NFL in 3 defensive stat categories was the 1985 Chicago Bears - when is the last time Manning played an elite defense?
Seattle has played against 6 top 10 defenses in a row, and all but New Orleans was a physical running offense (even the saints tried to run in the first half) - this defense is licking their chops to play against a finesse team, trust meComment -
He's 5'11 220.
In comparison, Adrian Peterson is 6'1 and only 217.Comment -
Sea will take some early penalties to establish their defensive presence. Den might get some field position advantages because of that but once the den receivers get scared to run accross the middle( that WILL happen) then manning will have to force things. Go and watch the superbowl with the saints/colts.Comment -
You really think that is a wise game plan?
Give Manning two or three cheap shot 15 yard penalties, give them, say 10 free points, and have the refs for the rest of the game microscope everything the Seahawks do for the rest of the game?
Be real dude, get real man.
You ever see that set Denver runs with Welker in the backfield?
How is Seattle, with the Broncos in a no huddle, going to get the proper personnel on the field and defend that.
Manning, the Denver offense, coaches Fox and Gase will keep Seattle's defense on their heels all game.
I think you are forgetting Manning is as a good a QB as Seattle is on defense.
By the way, Peyton was 31 for 45 in that Saints SB game for 333 yards, and the only blemish Peyton had that game was when Peyton was driving the Colts for a tie late in the fourth when Porter guessed right and jumped the route for the pick.
That game was 17-16 Colts dude with 10 minutes left.
What am I supposed to be looking for in that SB game, Manning played well, and how many sacks did the Saints have?
Try noneComment -
You hit the nail on the head Nash. Look at guys like Brees, Brady, and Peyton. Neither are exactly fleet of foot but they are hardly anywhere near the top of the sack list. That's because they know how to manipulate the pass rush with their pocket presence so well.Comment -
Manning will make some plays....won't light them up but he'll make plays with all those receivers. Seattle will try to run the ball down their throat but Denver can play the run. Seattle has a substandard QB and substandard WRs. If Denver can beat Rivers and Brady...they can beat Russ WIlson. Go and watch the superbowl with the bears/colts!!Comment -
7's were available on buy down? Keep digging. 7 was never the line. Besides, we are talking about closing lines.First off, I corrected myself and stated that what I was intending to say was "he had phenomenal stuff."

i dont know why people dont talk about how this whole game will be decided by the refs. If they let seattle play physical then they will contain manning. If they call touchy penalties seattle has no shot. I think the latter is going to happen unfortunately because the nfl is a corrupt shady organizationComment -
this game isnt fun anymore, anyone who watched football before this knows what I mean. The game can be completely controlled nowComment -
Here you go. I started a thread Tuesday. I'm hoping for some great analysis by SBR experts before kickoff.
Comment -
the public is betting the entire 2 weeks. normally i would agree with you, but in the superbowl.
to me its more telling that the sharp books wont go to 3. i will have a tough time with this if manning gets good weather. the youth of wilson scares me, and lynch is clearly distracted with all this media bsComment -

Bottom line broncos will do just enough to win. Manning is smart , reads defensive schemes well. I would say Eli is smarter but Peyton has far more skill and ain't dumb. It might take a quarter but he will get reads on this Seattle defense and the offensive coordinators will make the necessary adjustments.Comment -
U joking??? Simple logic: seahhawks cant score for shiyttt. Ya good D but cant stop broncos every time and no way can they go tit for tat in scoring. Broncos in a blowout. Audibles and controlling the line and changing signals will have seattle confused. They shutdown one guy and The firepower will go to another one of their top tier recievers. Seattle doesnt stand a chance scoring 15 pts as usual lmfoa. This isnt the 49rs who they almost lost to at home lolComment
