Think about who both teams beat to get here. Denver beat San Diego and a decimated New England team. Seattle took out New Orleans and San Fran. Its not even a question who has recently played the better teams.
Seattle has been the best team in the NFL all year. Of course people are going to bet Denver, its Manning and they are flashy. Stat I read today Seattle is the first team in 30 years to have no player on the roster with Super Bowl experience. It’s a second year QB vs a legend. Who is supposed to be bet?
Seattle’s D is too good. And the big problem for Denver will be stopping Seattle. No one is talking about that. Seattle’s offense is fine, and will be even better vs a shitty Denver D. I expect Seattle to score 31-34 points. Seattle is nasty. They talk the talk and they back it up. I respect what they have done and I don’t see how they lose this game.
In what world is Denver better then Seattle? Im sure you will come back with some insults, nothing football realted. That’s fine. Ill deal with facts right now though.
Denver’s 2 best wins this year are twice vs KC. Anyone who follows the sport knows how depleted NE is. 4 pro bowl players out on defense alone, plus Gronk. I dont put much into Denver beating my team at home as a 6 point favorite. Would have been 9 if Talib was out before the game.....
Seattle on the other hand has beat the best teams in the NFL all year. They beat San Fran 2x, New Orleans 2x, Carolina and Arizona. They have lost 3 games a crazy game @Indy. Indy also beat Denver. They lost by 2 @San Fran and they lost a hear scratcher at home to Arizona. But anyone who knows football knows going into that game Arizona was the hottest team in the NFL going into that game. They had won 6 of 7 before beating Seattle. I think its comical that Denver is much better, its not the truth its you making things up. Denver cant and wont beat Seattle. Denver is nowhere near physical enough. Look at what Seattle’s did to Crabtree, Boldin, Davis and Gore. As talented if not better then what Denver will throw at them.
Joe, I think you are dismissing the atmosphere and the role of the fans in Seattle, and in particular, that stadium designed for maximum fan interference. SF's 3rd an 1 - turned 3rd and 6 due to a delay of game penalty, and subsequently not converted, was all due to the fans.

This is a team that barely beat Houston and St. Louis on the road. They are good, but they are not beating the Bronco's on a neutral field. Not a chance.

That crowd and atmosphere is insane, I get it. People a act like Seattle can't win on the road though. They lost two road games this year. Indy and San Fran by 2. Its not like they fall apart when they travel.

Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker, Julius Thomas, Wes Welker and Knowshon Moreno. You choose who you are going to take out but you aren't shutting down all of them and anyone of them can be the one to beat you. Too many options regardless of how good Sherman is.

Plus Denver has Manning vrs Kaepernick. Huge difference. Denvers run defense is pretty good right now. Wilson is going to have to beat them and the passing game is seattles weakness. Neutral field gives Denver the nod and an easy cover in this game.

For Seattle to have a chance, Pete Carroll would have to channel his inner Bill Parcells. He would need to use Marshawn Lynch like Parcells used Otis Anderson vs the Bills and grind the clock and keep it out of Peytons hands.

What?

Denver doesn't impress me at all. The Bills were much better than that Giants team and got outcoached. Not a good analogy.

Well that is where we differ. Just like the Bills, my feeling is Denver is much better than Seattle. So given that my analogy is spot on.

This. Plus Montee Ball when he gets going.
Only team to beat the Denver Broncos this year, other than that Thursday night game, was the Denver Broncos.
