    14' Seahawks vs 16' Broncos

    Which defense had a more dominant superbowl?

    In my opinion the Broncos played a way better game than the Seahawks did that year. Carolina was in the game the whole time and Denver still stuffed them. Which is what anyone with a brain predicted

    I agree that Denver played a better game. But they had to. Seattle won that game going away somewhere around the beginning of the second quarter. Tough to compare.

    With that said, this is a matchup I would pay a lot of money to see. A dream defensive super bowl. O/U ~36?

    Seattle was a better defense.

    Brady played a solid game against Denver d with the worst o line in history.

    Seattle did that against a historic Denver offense too. Panthers offense doesn't even have any name brand players. Only way car was gonna win this game was by running the ball. That was pretty obvious before the game.

    Seattle no question , they stopped a high powered Denver offense ,

    Where as carolinas offense isn't that great with no top wr to throw 2

    But 2 top defenses all the same

    Of course Seattle Manning threw for fukkin 55 TD's that year. Carolina's offense was a little above average really they just scored a ton off of turnovers.

    Seattle without a doubt,Carolina had an opportunity to stlll win the game last night until Cam gave up their at the end. The catch that was called back in the early going would have took Cam out of the danger zone,and he wouldn't have given up that first td.

    In 2014 Denver were dominated by the word go,Seattles Defense crushed the best offense in the league like it was nothing.

    Pittsburgh came very close to knocking them off.

    Seattle had a better defense that year, but I think Denver's defense put on more of a clinic when comparing super bowl performances.

    I think Denver had a better defense, but Seattle will go down as the better team.

    hard to make a fair comparison, the broncos in 2014 started the game off with a safety. That wasn't seattle's defense. Broncos wouldn't have beat anyone that night.

    Seahawks is an all time great defense. Statistically it was in the top 3 and cases were made that it was the best.

    You guys are prisoners of the moment. Seattle defense was better. Brady was a 2 point conversion away from tying game in the AFC Championship game.

    Agreed, but putting it to a Kerry Collins led offense is not as difficult as the tasks both Seattle and Denver had.

    seattle's D was so amazing they had kapernick throw them interceptions in the NFC game.. o wait, that was just normal kap. I'll never forget that one interception he threw in the game, there was literally NO 49ers in the area... lol free 7 points for seattle

    Fact is if kapernick can throw a football seattle wouldn't have even been in that superbowl. Remember sherman at the end of the game deflecting a ball that wasn't even thrown well? lol. Sherman was beat on the route and was lucky it wasn't a TD.


    Their D is overrated but for understandable reasons. Most people just don't realize broncos lost that game far more than seattle won it. For any mmas fans just like aldo/mcgregor. Broncos game was over the moment they gave up the safety on first play of them game... it was clear where their heads were at.

    Saints stopped manning, Hawks stopped manning, denver defense won them the SB. Great stats doesn't mean you win any given Sunday.

    If you asked the starting defensive players on Denver:

    Who is a better quarterback? Cam Newton or Tom Brady?

    90% of the players will say Tom Brady.

    Pretty obvious, Tom Brady was able to do a lot more against Denver with a much worse O line and zero running game.

    They weren't saying that until right after the fact though right? When Brady lite up KC, threw the ball in less 2 seconds, yada, yada, Broncos D had no chance. Why are you even bringing the o-line excuse when Brady used that same o-line to make the KC defense look pedestrian. And Brady didn't do sh1t until both Darrian Stewart and TJ Ward went out in the 4th. And that was when Gronk finally went off because he was going against their backup safeties.

    I didn't even watch NE DEN so I'm not going to comment, as far as better QBs Rodgers and Cam are the 2 best QBs in the league. Rodgers is better than Brady and PM will ever be.

    Denver's front was better. Seattle's LB and secondary was better. Overall I would give the advantage to a team that held Big Ben, Brady and Cam to a little over 14 points a game. 3 of the best offenses in the NFL during the regular season in scoring and yardage.
