Denver Broncos Offensive Line Against The Seattle Defense

[SEC]

I understand the Seahawks D is very very good, but I believe that they will rarely get close to Manning. Isn't this the most critical aspect of capping this matchup?

what about the other way around. Is denvers defense even able to stop the semi prolific offense of seattle? Should be a very good game.. I personally think defense wont come into play.. this game has over written all on it IMO.

There is no comparison between Denver's offensive line and Seattle's pass rush. It's not even close.

So which are you saying is the better of the two? I'm hoping it's Denver's o-line since Manning rarely gets touched...

I think Denver's defense is pretty good.

They were about middle of the pack in total defense, but the only thing that separates them from being a top 10 Defense is about 20 yards a game.

Take into account they were up on teams all almost all year long and their opponents throwing their butts off every game to try & keep pace or get back in the game, and well, there you have the difference...

Have you even considered the reason he barely get's touched is because he's in the shotgun and throws the ball in under three seconds? And, the fact that Denver hasn't played many good defenses all year so his WR's are open?

Not the case Sunday.

Wilson have to beat Denver in order for Seattle to have a chance.
Denver's "D" will shut down Lynch.
Someone mentioned the OVER....Absolutely this game goes OVER.

Lynch will have a good game sent a pack of Tropical Skittles to the Seahawks Hotel

I agree with this; they gave up almost zero points until the 4th quarter in their two playoff games. I'm large on the under and I wouldn't be shocked at a 20-13 game.
