    So in Super Bowl 48, NFC Champs Seattle Seahawks led by Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch take on AFC Champs Denver Broncos led by Peyton Manning and Demaryius Thomas.

    Opening line and over under: Broncos(-1.5) and 48 is the line.

    So, who are you all rooting for, and what are your Super Bowl predictions?

    I got the Broncos winning 37-24.

    I'm cautiously optimistic. I saw an endless number of blown coverages and missed tackles with the Pats D that I can't help but think will not be there with the Seahawks (or the 49ers, had they won).


    But hell, I'm no expert. In the end I have no clue. All I know is go 'Hawks!

    I would love to see Seattle win, but I'm not sure they have enough offense.

    Denver's defense played very well today against a far better quarterback than they'll be playing next, and they stopped a running back who was on fire. If they can stop the Patriots' offense, they should be able to handle Seattle's.

    The Seahawks are stacked on defense, but I think Manning scores enough to win his second Super Bowl.

    I'm gonna say Denver over Seattle, 23-20.

    37-24 in either direction is highly unlikely.

    Broncos are gonna murder them. And unfortunately, I'm a fan of neither Bruno Mars nor RHCP. I might actually skip out on the super bowl unless there's a party or something. :/

    Rooting for the underdog. And the West Coast team. I believe the Broncos have had this privilege before and the Seahawks have not. I wouldn't know this data, not being the most ardent of fans. It may be the only football game I watch all year.

    I think that Broncos offence might be too much for Seattle, they were imperious last night.

    Woo go Broncos! :slight_smile: Champ Bailey is mah boyyyy

    I'm definitely rooting for the Broncos this time! I didn't start actively watching football until after Elway had left, so this is the first time I've seen the Broncos in the Super Bowl and I'm excited.

    I'm predicting Broncos win 23-16.

    In retrospect, I'm wondering how far the Broncos would have gotten in the NFC playoffs?


    I thought it was exciting... :grin:

    Bruno Mars and The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Always. :wink:

    After that half time show, I care even less about which team wins. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Seahawks are pwning.
    43 - 8, man! The Broncos don't have a prayer.
    The Broncos did okay in the 3rd quarter (8 points in 1 quarter) but that's all I'm saying.

    Only a few minutes left; not much else to watch.

    Good game, Hawks, you all deserved it. I must go another year to see my team win it all. :'(

    Well, I've been rooting for the Seahawks from the start of the game, but I haven't really been watching. On another note I don't like Bruno Mars but I like RHCP. So, yeah! That's what happens there! Great Job, Seahawks!
