The day is finally upon us. It's always bitter sweet because it's the biggest game on earth, but it also means it's the last day of football for a while.
I predicted 49ers vs Broncos in the Super Bowl at the beginning of the year and thought San Fran would take home the Lombardi trophy. I didn't account for Colin Kaepernick pulling a Tony Romo. After Kaep's performance last week I won't pick the 9ers to win anything until he can prove he can.
With that being said, I'm picking the Broncos to win it all. This is Peyton's year. He's broke so many records with the most impressive may be winning his fifth MVP award last night. Unprecedented.
The Seahawks defense is the best in the league, the best in a long time in the league. And Peyton's arm strength isn't what it once was, but his preparation and anticipation has never been better.
Everyone's discussing the #1 Broncos offense vs. the #1 Seahawks defense, but I think the more important match up is between the Seahawks offense and the Broncos defense.
The Broncos D is solid. Not as good as Seattle's, but still very good. Add to it that this is future Hall of Famer Broncos CB Champ Bailey's first ever Super Bowl and I see their D playing the best game to date. And I'm predicting Champ to get a pick in this one.
Seattle's offense has struggled down the stretch and second year QB Russell Wilson, while a very good young QB, just doesn't have the experience to win it this year. RB Marshawn Lynch will go "Beast Mode" but the Broncos run D will contain him enough to not let him control the game.
Too many things have to happen in the Seahawks favor for them to win. I just can't see Peyton looking on as Russell Wilson holds up the trophy. Not this year. This is Peyton's year.
