Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI know it is a little early for a Super Bowl thread but after watching both games I am for Denver.
I don't have any skin in this game but I hope Denver wins. This is going to be one great Super Bowl.

(12,448 posts)up against a uniformly exceptional receiving squad, led by one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game, that works behind one of the best O-lines ever, it is pretty fucking stupid.
Does this asshole actually believe that Manning didn't put "humiliating the shit out of Sherman" on his todo list, tonight?

(33,224 posts)Manning is too smart for that.

(14,400 posts)and Manning hasn't played that well when it gets really cold. We'll see what the weather looks like but between Seattle and Denver it could be a low scoring ground game.
Personally I'm hoping for a Seattle win, I used to cheer for them when I was a grad student.

(2,679 posts)That will stiffen a normal neck. Just imagine you have a metal rod in your neck and that Sea Hawk defense coming at you.
Hawks will win. All that passing, and record setting offense usually has mega trouble when playing against a solid defense. Add some cold weather maybe strong winds... The team with the better defense and run game tends to win.
Hawks and off the top of my head 34 28 ....
Go Hawks!

This is from a Chiefs fan who despises the Broncos.

(37,540 posts)True, I have ulterior motives...but I think either team would have beaten the AFC this year....at least the AFC teams that played today.
I am truly impressrd with Russel Wilson and the Seahawks.

(115,681 posts)am rooting for our under dog. But it doesn't really matter as I am not a seahawk, they are just local-ish. People are pretty excited though.

Both teams can go to the air or keep it on the ground.
I'm taking the 50 point over.

(29,149 posts)The weather could be an issue for the Broncos, I think. And the Seahawks defense is outstanding. But Seattle is also much better at home, so getting them on a neutral field will help.

(4,887 posts)beginning and when Denver won, I predicted a Seahawks win in this SB.
I would have been MUCH more nervous if the patriots had won.
Saying that, Denver is an old rival, and to play them in this game is perfect
for us old fans.
I've hated Denver since the "orange crush" days.
Seattle will win, bet on it.
In fact I will.
