i'm pounding seattle at -1 or -2 whatever it ends up being.... or plus points if the public gets too excited.
1. the best defenses den has played all year are the texans, chiefs, and chargers. none of these defenses hold a candle to seattle's d and especially with this game being played in the meadowlands. between the grabbing and pushing its going to be sherman playing the role of ty law and frustrating manning into turnovers and fg instead of td. i mean jeez, even the poor pats d forced 4 fg by the broncos. the should have been close to 40 in that game with the ease that they were moving the ball.
2. everyone and their mom will be all over the broncos and manning with the strong showing he had vs ne, passing for over 400 yards. he was picking on a decimated pats defense.
3. defense and running games travel well, and seattle already tasted the meadowlands in their victory over the giants earlier this year. there is some type of familiarity.
4.this seattle team reminds me of the ravens in 2001. their d is good enough so that their qb can have pedestrian stats and still win easily. only difference is that wilson is better than dilfer. he can pick up some timely 1st downs with this legs and comes up with timely throws. if you remember, the giants had like the 3 or 4th ranked defense the year the ravens blasted them in the superbowl, but that raven d was just that good.
5. denver with tebow, and now with manning have been a fan favorite for about 3 yrs now. all the housewives know them and manning. all the casual fans know manning and the broncos. most people havent seen seattle play. they are geographically isolated. their games arent on tv except when they are on primetime. even the fantasy players out there, they love manning, decker, thomas, thomas.. all these guys helped them get to their fantasy playoffs. who does seattle have that the fantasy players love. lynch and the defense. no sexy enough.
6. there's more reasons, and i'll add to this over the next two weeks.
