I think Peyton Manning is generally likable, so I'd like to see him get a win here and then just go out on top. I like Cam Newton too, but he has some more shots at this left.

If it means Peyton retires instead of putting us through another season like this one, I'd be fine if the Broncos win. I'm fine either way really because for whatever faults Cam may have, the sheer amount of fun he seems to be having on the field is worth celebrating.

He's only got 1-2 games to tie/take the wins record. Not sure how much that weighs on his decision after the season. It will be amazing if Peyton gets the trophy, being the second Colts-drafted QB to win a superbowl for Denver. I am, of course, not at all biased.

I have to imagine that if he wins he will definitely retire. I mean, at that point why not? Just ride into the sunset. And by sunset, I mean the next nationwide ad campaign.

I think the Panthers destroy the Broncos. Their defenses are in the same league, and the offenses aren't at all.

Their defenses are in the same league, and the offenses aren't at all.
The only caveat is that the Panthers had a much softer schedule this season than the Broncos did. BUT, It's going to be tough no matter what. I don't think we'll get destroyed, but I can see us easily losing.

We very well might get a really close game dominated by the defenses. However, if we don't get that kind of game, I think we have a shot at a Panthers blowout.

Panthers have blown out everyone so far in the playoffs early. They did let the Seahawks back in the door a little.

And that's where I wonder if we have a shot at capitalizing. Our Defense is playing out of their minds. Forcing a couple of turn overs and Special Teams is where the REAL meat will be. I'll be drunk either way.

I didn't know that Oher from The Blindside played for Carolina now. I think that fact alone may swing my Superbowl 50 fandom to the Panthers. Rooting for the crippled, old, white QB was too easy otherwise.

Its going to be "how good can Broncos edge-rush" versus "how many passes can the Broncos receivers drop": the game.

If the Panthers don't try to assassinate Miller I have no idea what their blocking strategy will entail

They have a better front for one thing, and they use six/seven men more often. Plus, Cam is actually hard to tackle, and can run on top of that.

Calling the Panthers, but rooting for the Broncos. Manning seems to be a pretty swell guy, and I think it'd be cool for a dude like him to go out on a nice win.

The NFL are actually going to 'investigate' the claims that Manning may have taken HGH. I will eat a shoe if the report concludes that he did or even was 'generally aware' of HGH being shipped to his house.

IMHO, it doesn't matter. HGH was not tested back then so we'll never know if he did use it, only if it was sent to his house. Even if that is true, a man coming off neck surgery? I can give him a pass for using HGH to get back up to speed.

It doesn't matter because the "source" in the original story walked back his claims anyway and admitted to lying. He also didn't even work at the clinic at the time.

Yeah, the story sounds like it's either 1) total bullshit, or 2) the people making claims got paid and walked those claims back. Still not quite sure why HGH is banned by the various sports authorities but the older I get, the less I think we should be banning the use of these things. Let these roided up fucktards bash the snot out of each other for my amusement!

Does HGH cause that? I know other roids can cause some serious shit but I don't know enough about HGH to make a decision on it.
Also, yeah the CTE thing kind of kills the argument that "steroids destroy your body in later life!" Because fuck, just taking 10-15 disco biscuits to the head per game apparently turns your brain to mush.

Skipping our yearly trip to Vegas for the Super Bowl this year. I would be the guy openly rooting for the Broncos, with a $1000 win bet on the Panthers in my wallet. Color me conflicted.

The Broncos beat up on a average offensive line AT HOME and still only won by two points. Carolina has something of a run game plus a mobile quarterback. I'll be surprised if the Broncos win. I think you can't discount how playing at home helped the Broncos pass rush.

My god the level of product placement whoring is so bad. I turned on CBS for about two minutes. Two commercials for Turkish airlines that were tied to the batman/superman movie, and then they had the analyst desk people doing a horrid pitch for some new Pizza Hut thing.
I had to turn it off, not sure if I am even going to watch the game at this rate.
