My prediction: Denver's D is the story of the game. Denver wins by double digits. Something along the lines of 27-17.
Manning seals his legacy tomorrow.
Denver 31
Seattle 21
this kind of reminds me of indys superbowl against the bears....there was just no way rex grossman was going to score more pts than peyton manning....i feel the same way about russell wilson v. manning
btw i was just reading that beers are $14 at the game today
And you've got to be in your seat 2.5 hours before kickoff. farg that.

it basically was 15 minutes of oriley telling the country what fox considers news....he actually asked an irs question
was that dan baker pa'ing
Game on, sound off. I'm totally ready to barely pay attention while playing Fallout New Vegas for the millionth time.
dood in the end zone had a seth joyner birds jersey
Commercials have been pretty bad. Radio Shack was good.
the coke ad was great
cheerios was good
and holy shtein is fox sports pathetic
We got problems when Bruno Mars is better than the game.
bruno mars is really good
Have to admit I had no idea who Bruno Mars was. (my lawn, get off it :P )
Read in the SB previews that Denver had the 3rd easiest opponent's defense schedule this year. Seeing how the game is turning out that sounds about right.
Bring back Bruno. Donkeys have packed it in.
Now I have to watch and see if we get the first S.B. shutout...
I thought going 18-1 was a humiliating choke job, but at least that was a competitive supberbowl. Peyton tore asses up in the regular season with the most insane numbers ever and was in a hole from the very first snap.
why did they punt there?

We're getting there. This could be the worst 4thQ since SF beat the living daylights out of Elway back in 89?
If we're this far along in the blowout, I want to see them go 50-0.

If it ends up being a shutout, give it to a defensive guy.Agreed
seems like they are trying to get it for russell wilson....only explanation for why they are throwing it so much

That TD probably just sealed it for him too
btw russell wilson is going to win a superbowl with jermaine kearse and doug baldwin....i hope all the bed wetter apologists who have screamed about todd pinkston for all these years can now shut up

Take that, TO and Freddie Mitchell!
As great as Manning is, this game exemplifies why I rank Brady higher.
Seahawks DBs dropping like flies. Time for some Manning bullshtein magic!

even if he won this game its really not that close....losing it puts him under .500 in the postseason....brady is ten games over
eli face!! and hes not even playing
The tuck rule still biases me

:yay
if the tuck rule means something to you then it should change how you feel about the teams legacy...i dont see how that one play changes a single thing about bradys greatness
calm down
But Wilson's not 6'4" 250lbs. and able to throw the ball into the upper deck off his back foot, how could he win a Super Bowl?
:paranoid
Seriously though, I didn't see any Seahawks games this year and didn't know their D was that dominating.

BUT THE DEFENSE!

And the list of teams that have never won a SB is 1 team shorter. Thanks a lot Denver.
Dicks.
When the Texans win one before the Eagles, that's when I eat a bullet.
Thankfully I'll be dead from a heart attack well before that happens.
:-D
What a crappy game to close out the season. I was disinterested by halftime and my wife fell asleep despite looking forward to it.
I'll take a defense like Seattle's any day, they made what was the best offense in the league last year look incompetent. When the Broncos blow Super Bowls they really blow them, with an average margin of defeat in five Super Bowl losses of almost thirty points.
Plus, Manning sets the NFL record for career playoff losses with twelve, breaking a tie with Favre. I wonder if Favre called to say thank you. The Broncos also hold the record for most Super Bowl losses with five. I'll bet pot sales are sky high in Colorado right about now. ;D
Peyton's an awful postseason qb...polar opposite of his brother who is clutch. People were saying this win would cement his legacy...so since he played awful this loss should tarnish his legacy.
it definitely hurts him as far as the all time qb rankings go....a win maybe puts him in the top 3... now hes not top 5
I think Manning is an all-time great QB, but this is a significant black eye, for sure. No doubt about it. Only way to dig out even a little would be to go back, play lights out and win another SB. All this one did was reinforce the big game disaster rep.
Stage is nicely set for another Denver SB, this time with the W, followed by a QB retirement. It's destiny.
The Broncos had the easiest schedule in terms of opponent's 2012 win-loss record this season, the Seahawks were in 10th place.
Seahawks 0.516 130 122
Broncos 0.430 110 146
Not to say Denver has a terrible offense, or that Payton is a terrible QB (have to say I'm not upset that he lost) but they were a good offense that played a soft schedule (best D they played was San Fran, and they got held to 10 points, everyone else was in the bottom half in YPG) and got exposed (to an unexpected extent I admit, I thought it would come down to the 4th quarter) in the Super Bowl against the best D in the league.
Not sure if this ruins Payton's rep too much; assuming he doesn't make it back to the big game he has the same number of SB wins and losses and similar number of post season losses as Favre, with better passing numbers (Peyton can easily break Favre's TD total, Rating isn't even close and he has a shot at the passing yards if he plays a couple more seasons), but most sportscasters and fans still get a stiffy just hearing Favre's name.
Edit: double post.

true that they did have an easy schedule that no doubt led to them piling up some numbers but they didnt play san fran this year and at least 3-4 of the teams they played were in the top half in ypg
watching what seattle did to manning makes you wonder how bad it wouldve been if they played foles
good thing the eagles just lost and avoided it
Not taking anything away from Seattle, but what they did to Denver and Manning was more or less a fluke. Safety on the 1st play from scrimmage + batted ball pick 6 + Percy Harvin getting healthy at the right time = fluke. They're perfectly capable of beating Denver any day, but if they played 10 times, Den puts up like 24-28 pts per game in the next 9. Seattle had their best game and Denver had their worst. shtein happens.
couldnt disagree more....when denver had the ball seattle was basically dominant at every single position on the field....their wr couldnt get open...their line couldnt protect or run block and peyton cant go down the field which is killer against a team that tackles as good as any team ive ever seen...are they 35 pts better than denver maybe not....but they are a far superior team and there was nothing flukey about that ass whipping....and i thought denver would win a low scoring close game
you are being very kind on the "batted ball" as if it was some sort of weird play...it was batted because cliff avril bum rushed peyton
also seattle didnt have their best game...they had the game that they basically played all year...efficient offense dominating defense
Sherman says they figured out some of the hand signals so they knew what was coming. Guess that helps.
worked out well for the hoody against the birds

IGY, you get a Time-Out. One minute. Face the wall, I don't want you moving from there and I want you to think about what you did. Only Reese can use the phrase 'bum rush'. Not you. Not Obama. Not the Dalai Lama. Only Reese.
