Broncos Carolina Super Bowl
- Thread starter sthusker
- Start date
I'd like to see Manning win and ride off into the sunset, but.....got to go with Panthers. Everyone will be talking about the Denver D vs the Carolina O, but, I'm not sure any team can stop the Panthers when they are humming. Just not sure Denver can outscore them, even if their D plays well. They could hold them to 17, but not sure Denver can get to 20.
I find it funny that every game this post season people have said the same thing " Denver is going to get blown out by insert opponent name here" Denver made traditionally one of the best offensive lines in football looking like a bunch of chumps today. Carolina is a great team but they are not unbeatable. Denver's D matches up very well against Cam and Co. I still think Carolina wins but it won't be a blow out.
Broncos. Eh, Denver wasn't even suppose to beat New England. Panthers haven't faced a D as good as the Broncos. It will be a great game.
The Patriots O Line has been its weak point all year. Definitely not one of the best in football. Especially after Solder went down in week 4. Vollmer moves from RT to LT and a backup comes in to start at RT all year. He got dominated all game by Von Miller. I think Denver matches up well with Carolina, but the Patriot O Line isn't a good litmus test for the Super Bowl
I hate Carolina worse than Okla, Tex, The OSU & Mich.
Never liked CN since he was a recruit that sold out to the highest $$$$ bidder.
And his show-boating throughout the game is sickening an un-professional.
Would like to see him play for Vince.
Peyton is playing his best football at this time of the year, and if his receivers can hold onto the ball and if the defense continues to shine, it can be a game.
My heart is with the Broncs.
GO BIG RED

Denver's D is the best Cam will have faced all season, but mobile QBs have been more effective against Denver as well (Luck, A Smith, etc). Big key will be Cam's ability to dodge the pass rush and extend plays. Denver's O must also not turn the ball over to have a chance.
I'm not a big fan of Cam, but get used to the dabbing and the dancing. That is going to be the new generation like it or not. I do love watching Carolina games when the kids get the footballs. Awesome.
Some kids on my son's basketball team are now "dabbing" after a big play on the court. Effing barf. I hope Cam gets broken in half at the Super Bowl and Carolina loses, big, with that dork sitting on the bench broken and dazed.
Wow. Never hoping to see someone get injured, but he could use some banging around to cool his ego. The Broncos just may be up to the task. Ask Tommy Brady how he's feeling this morning.
The Sheriff rides off into the sunset with another SB ring (just like the NFL wants it to happen) as long as no laterals are thrown to Ronnie Hillman.
I don't care for Newton's Superman routine or whatever dance he's doing these days. But I don't see how it's any different than when Aaron Rodgers used to "put on the belt" every time the Packers made a first down.
Unlike dabbing, Putting on the belt isn't a tip of the cap to America's drug culture. Which is one of many reasons many people don't like Newton.
Doesn't matter to me personally. I don't like Newton for the same reason I don't like Manziel. For whatever reason, they and their programs were not held to the same standards other players and programs are in regards to NCAA eligibility.
They can come sniffing around for ham sandwich reimbursement but can't seem to get off their @ss when 180,000 wasn't enough money to get him to Mississippi State.
Last week all I heard about was how sad it's become to watch Manning at this stage in his career, people were reading his eulogy for days on end...so of course he goes out and has a great game and proves most of America wrong. I think he has one more great game in him, and I'm rooting for it. Manning is 1000X easier to like and root for than that dork taking snaps on the other team and I hope the football gods smile on him one more time.
The people not giving Denver much of a shot against Carolina are the same people that didn't give Denver much of a shot against New England.
That's why you play the game.
That's why you play the game.
I hope so too. Plus the Bronco ownership needs more media face time.
Cannot put my finger on it...but it seems like I heard this somewhere...where was it...OH YEAH, ALL LAST WEEK!! OOPS!!!
Just like Nebraska had "no chance" in the 1994 Orange Bowl against Florida St. Huskers were too one dimensional and Florida St. was just too good. That's why they play the games.
I think this is closer to a coin flip game than most seem to think. Denver has a great D and as long as Manning is willing to play within himself, as he has the last 2 weeks, and be a game manager, I think Denver has a real shot at this.
Carolina had a great season. No doubt about it. They went 15-1 and have gotten all the praise they deserved; however, outside of yesterday, they really haven't blown anyone out all year playing against one of the weakest schedules in the league. Arizona played one of the poorest game I've seen since Denver in Super Bowl 48. Still, they were one play away from going into the locker room only down 24-14.
I think everyone assumes this game will be a blowout because of Denver's track record in Super Bowls, especially 2 years ago, and Carolina's face value record and performance yesterday. This isn't the Denver team that had a middle of the pack, at best, defense in 2013 and was missing several key players for the Super Bowl. I would even argue that 2013 Seattle is better than 2015 Carolina.
We will see. If Manning gets jumpy, as he has in big games in the past, and turns the ball over a couple times early, I could see it being a blowout...but if Denver plays the way they have on D most of the season, and the offense manages the game, I see this going 4 quarters.

Not a fan of either team but what Newton has done and evolved into is pretty amazing. He is pretty much an unstoppable force back there at qb. Manning cant throw a spiral let alone a ball with any pace over 15 yards. This will get ugly. He is the worst SB qb since Rex or Dilfer.
The Broncos defense will pressure Cam into mistakes, and C.J. Anderson will get the running game going enroute to a Broncos win!
I just wish tickets weren't going for $4k or whatever they are selling for!

If they cant pass how can they run? Carolina is the most underrated 17-1 team ever
because Demaryius is finally going to earn that big money he's getting by catching a few big passes over Norman, which will open up the run game and allow the Broncos to wear down that Carolina defense.
Plus, the Broncos will be wearing white. 10 out of the last 11 Super Bowl winners wore white uniforms!
The fact that the Broncos use that stupid KState song during their games dictates that they need to lose.
I keep waiting for Wildcat Willy to show up on the scoreboard when they play it.

Yeah but I don't like how putting on a belt is a tip of the cap to receiving services from prostitute's. Soooo there.
