Seattle hasn't faced an offense like this either. The only thing close was when they faced NOS, the rest they haven't faced another Elite QB yet.

Sure, but not to the same level. NO and SF are both very good offenses, but SD and NE were mediocre defenses. On average, Seattle played better offenses than Denver played defenses during the regular season. Plus, you're basically saying "apart from probably the fourth best QB in the league, the Seahawks haven't played any top QBs." ;-) There's no "apart" necessary when talking about Denver's recent defensive opponents.

Seattle has a crazy good D but they haven't faced an offense this powerful. That doesn't even take into account how much different the hawks D is on the road. The best QB they played this year was Brees at home and we all saw how good they looked. Well the second time the saints had a lot more success. Peyton will play well but IMO this game comes down to R. Wilson vs Denver's D. Ill say Denver wins 35-27

Denver hasn't faced a defense like Seattle. They are not only the #1 overall defense, they also have the best red zone defense since 2006. They will force turnovers, IMO.

I think the refs are going to let them play because they've pretty much done that in the postseason. That favors defense.

Seattle hasn't faced an offense like this either. The only thing close was when they faced NOS, the rest they haven't faced another Elite QB yet.

The best offense that Seattle has faced is New Orleans (by points per game), who scored 25.9 PPG (10th). By comparison, Denver scored 37.9 PPG, so almost two touchdowns better than NO. Big difference.

By contrast, the best defense that Denver has faced is Kansas City (also by points per game), who allowed 19.1 PPG (T5th). By comparison, Seattle allowed 14.4 PPG, a difference of only 4.7 points. In the two games that Denver played against KC, they averaged 31 points, which is 162% of KC's PPG average. In addition, Denver also played Indy (9th), New England (10th), San Diego (11th) and Baltimore (12th) and averaged 32.2 PPG against those teams.

What does all that say? Comparitively, Denver has faced far tougher defenses than Seattle has faced offenses, and has put up a lot of points against those teams.

Prediction:

Sherman has a shutdown day as usual but Denver has too many weapons. Denver 28-20. One of Seattle's scores is on D or they are set up short field by turnover. Wild-ass guess, probably wrong, just ready to enjoy.

More important question:

What's everyone cooking for Super Bowl Party????

I have a 10 pound boston butt going in the Weber smoker tonight for a 12-14 smoke in about 50/50 apple wood/hickory. Dry rub with lots of ancho/guajillo pepper plus lots tons spices (ginger, allspice, cumin...list goes on). Everything pulled tomorrow and a thin, mustard-based vinegar finishing sauce added to the final product.

Not cooking today.  We are going to the Super Bowl party at Max's Conch Bar (Gary and Liz are two of our best friends). They are serving just burgers and dogs (they are normally closed on Sundays) along with the normal adult beverages, and several of the guests, us included, are bringing appetizers and munchies.  Gary projects the game onto a 12 foot screen, we bring beach chairs and sit in what's usually the parking lot, and it's a great party, island style. :beer:

Ditto. Stupid NFL. They shouldn't have games outside of domes in warm climates. Everyone knew what kind of disaster this would be. :-P

I thought it was a great game, but being a Hawks fan, what would you expect? The game showed that defense, when played with true passion, can still control any offense. And the Hawks play with passion unmatched. Good for them.

As far as being ashamed, it looks like the AFC better find some answers, because SF or New Orleans could have beaten Denver tonight.

I was traveling (again, third year in a row I've been on a plane during the SB) so I didn't get to watch it. But from what I hear, it was sheer domination by Seattle. I must say I'm surprised it turned out like it did. Seattle winning isn't a surprise, but the way they won definitely was. There was a lot of money lost tonight, that's for sure.

They should have reprised Cowboys v Denver and the game could have been 61-44 (Peyton Wins)

Seattle played a great game in all phases.  Let's see if they can carry this over into next season.  Repeating is very tough.

When I count my blessings, I guess we really have been spoiled over the last few years with good games in the Super Bowl. We were overdue for a blowout. Law of averages I guess.

It also looks like the Curse of the MVP is holding up this century.  The last League MVP to win a Superbowl was Kurt Warner in 1999.

I dunno if anyone here's mentioned it yet, but how about the odd year Percy Harvin had. He gets traded from the Vikes in March for a 1st, 3rd and 7th rounder, and then tears his labrum and undergoes surgery in August. Everyone thinks he's going on IR.

Somehow, he rehabs and makes his Hawks debut in week 11, where he played 16 snaps, but after the game, experiences hip soreness and is eventually shut down for the rest of the regular season later in the week.

He comes back again somehow against the Saints in the division round, but gets concussed in the 1st quarter. He sits out the NFC Championship game the next week.

Making his 3rd attempt at a comeback this year, in the Super Bowl of all games, the guy ends up rushing twice for 45 yards and taking the opening kick of the second half to the house for a touchdown. He also caught one pass for five yards.

In what was almost a really bad trade, in the end, it was probably all worth it :-D

    • there will be lots of changes.  i mean, look at newey past, each team fell off a cliff when he moved on i think max is the magic bullet   if red bull loses him then whee are they going for drivers?   lots of young talent but he is a proven winner and i’m sure top engineers love to work with him  
    • I too, like @GolfLug, remember great wedge, iron shots, or my missed putts, more than my made putts. My most memorable recently, would be: #17 Old Course St. Andrews (last year) I had been putting awful all day (I started 3 putt, 4 putt, 3 putt, 3 putt), but found a putting stroke on the back 9 and was 1 under on the back going into 16 and of course I 3-putted it for a bogey. Got to 17 and my playing partner just hit it into the hotel, so I went a little more left and decided to not try and hit it over the hotel.  And as soon as my ball was in the air, I heard one of the other caddies do the chicken noise.  LOL My shot was a little more left than I wanted, about 185 yards, I hit a 6-iron and it was drawing right at the flag.  The pin was just to the right of he bunker and towards the front of the green. My ball hit short (and just missed going into said bunker) and stopped about 15 feet left of the hole. Had a little left to right break and as soon as I hit it, I knew it was in.  Birdie on the road hole, looked at the caddie and said not bad for a Chicken.  Parred 18 (missed 10 foot birdie putt) for a 35 on the back 9 at the Old Course. #18 Springfield G&CC Last year while playing in our season long match play event, my partner and I get the 18th hole needing to win the match to move on into the knockout round.  We are tied going into 18.  A tie and we lose on overall points by .5.  Our teaching pro is on the other team (very good golfer), so we were pretty sure we needed a birdie to have a chance to win the match, I hit on of the best drives I hit all day and had about 135 yards to the pin, but it was in a place where you didn't really want to be long.  So I hit a PW and it landed just short of the flag but released about 12 feet past the hole, so have a devilish putt coming back down the hill.  Our competitors were away and the pro missed his birdie putt by inches, I thought it was in when he hit it.  So after reading the putt, which probably had a 2 cup left to right break, I made the putt to win the match.   #15 Springfield G&CC A few years back, was playing in the first round of the Club Championship (against the previous years runner-up) and my putter was balky all day.  Got to the 15 hole, 2nd Par 5 on back, and was 3-down with 4 to play.  We both hit good drives, both hit good second shots and we both hit decent 3rd shots.  I was about 15 feet and he was just a hair longer.  He missed his putt, I had another slider putt down the hill, with about a foot of right to left break and made the putt.  I birded the next hole, to go 1 down, but not a memorable putt as I only needed a bogey to beat him on that hole, he had all kinds of issues going on.  Lost on 17, as he birdied it, right after I missed mine to lose 2&1.

    • Ok so as of this point the bug persists. We figured out that I can select the tees (gold or blue) manually and it resets the back 9 scorecard to the Lake course, but as soon as I add #10 manually, it automatically sets the back 9 as Ridge and no amount of playing around with the tees changes it. And it still doesn't save #10 when I sign off. Andy from support said he will speak to the tech team about it, but it seems there isn't anything either of us can do at this point. I've accepted that #10 is simply lost. I now have 17 correct holes and that's going to have to be good enough.
