Super Bowl

XLVIII

Seattle Seahawks vs Denver Broncos

Where: MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ

When: Monday 3rd February, 10:30 AM AEST

This is a classic matchup of good vs evil. Offense vs Defense and finally a super bowl worthy of its name as the number one team in the east meet’s the number one team in the west.

The chilly weather of New York doesn’t look like it’s going to be the all-conquering factor that everyone thought it would be. The chance of snow looks slim.

Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning have set and smashed all kinds of scoring records. Yet there still seems to be an asterisk associated with Peyton Manning and his legacy. As unfair as it sounds this is a must win for Manning if he wants to cement his spot in history as “The Greatest”.

The running backs and receiver’s that surround Manning are the best in the business and Manning does a great job of really sharing the load. There is no go to guy. This is why they are so difficult to stop. Seattle may have the best defense in the league but they are facing a different beast in Manning. Seattle’s Pass rush are very fast at getting to the Quarter back at approximately 2.7 seconds but Manning is the fastest decision maker ever to  play the game with a release time of approximately 2.3 seconds from the snap. So Seattle needs to be even better than they have been which sounds ridiculous considering they are the number one defense.

The unsung hero is the Denver Offensive line. They have done an unbelievable job in protecting the hall of fame quarter back all season. Giving up Zero. Yes Zero sacks.

Denver wins this game.

Peyton Manning is mvp and cements his spot as one of the greatest Quarter backs of all time.
