You know all season long I counted out the Broncos due to poor Offense Performance, Manning getting hurt, etc etc etc
BUT they keep finding ways to play tuff and win games. They are now in the Super bowl and I'm wondering IF they can beat such a fantastic team. Clearly they should lose this game due to the fact they have a terrible time putting points on the board. BUT so does any team playing them.
So I'm really at odds with IF the Bronco's can win this game ?
Opinions?

I have begun to think seasons are scripted in advance like the WWE... Nothing plays better than Peyton getting that second ring and riding off into the sunset. You will know the fix is in if you see some choice penalty flags tossed against Carolina that tip the game at just the right moment.The Gear...

I have no dog in this fight. I do lean towards the AFC so I guess, GO BRONCOS!
All I will say is, Denver is going to have their hands full. No D, no chance. With D, slim....
Maybe Manning can hit 17mph again pfffffffft....bahahaha
Maybe if he was in a stripped car, going downhill, with a strong tailwind, a rocket booster developed by NASA, and a dash of his "wife's" HGH could this be a possibility.Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!! -

Don't be surprised if the Panthers win big and I mean big.
-
On and why? They are the better team and they are on fire. Sometimes all it takes is for teams to get in the zone. Domination. Don't get me wrong, Broncos are great but this is a bad matchup for them.
-
I don't think any AFC team could beat the Panthers at this point in time! They should be able to score on Denver's D. And Manning cannot put up the numbers necessary to win. Don't even know if I'll be watching this one, as it seems like a done deal to me. Reminds me too much of Seattle vs. Denver two years ago. Tough one for Manning, because I like him, think he's a good guy and was a great QB, one of the best, but?Currently orbiting Bowie's Blackstar.!

After watching my Giants beat the "unbeatable" Patriots in two Super Bowls, I know that anything is possible. On paper, Carolina is a better team. But that means nothing in the real world.
It's either going to be a defense battle and a very, very close game, or the Bronco's are going to get blown out.
I would like to see Manning go out on top, so I'll be rooting for the Bronco's. But I really just hope it's a good, close game.

Picking a winner is anyones guess. All depends on who brings it that day, and who makes the fewest mistakes.
I do want the Bronco's to win, but logic is going against them. Payton has lost a lot of zip on the ball, and the Panthers are interception machines. I would look for them to try and run the ball as much as possible and control the clock. If they can do that and the defense steps up like they did with the Pats.....they have as good a shot at it as anyone.
The Pats are no slouch of a team on both sides of the ball, much like the Panthers in that regard. I expect a close game coming down to the wire late in the 4th.HT SYSTEM-

Remember Manning and the Broncos in their last SB. They crushed literally everyone in the regular season and through the playoffs, only to get totally stuffed by Seattle. You had the unbeatable Patriots choke in the final game.
Me thinks Carolina is in the same position...crushing everyone up to this point...then they get hit by a real defense and gag.
I want to see Manning ride off into the sunset with ring #2 and it could very well happen.No excuses! -

I want Carolina to win, but Denver will pull it off because Newton will continue to play with reckless abandon and be injured by halftime.Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same.

I'm rooting for Von Miller and the Broncos! I highly doubt it'll be a Carolina blow out like everyone is predicting, but I do think the Panthers, regrettably, win by 10 or less.
