I was hoping for a 49ers-Broncos superbowl. But I have no skin in this game, so it's all good.

Go Broncos!

Can I report this thread? I find it offensive (Mainly because I'm a 9ers fan and the refs cheated )lol

The refs were screwing over the Seahawks just as much.

please
botched roughing the kicker call that should have been automatic first down and bowman laying on the ground with the ball clearly in his hand and they give it to seattle?

What's your complaint, that they followed the rules? We could argue that it's BS that this is a nonreviewable kind of call (and after that game it'll probably become reviewable), but you can't expect the refs to not follow the rules. Besides, you got your karma play immediately afterwards. The Bowman play ended up not impacting the game. You know what did? Kaepernick's three fourth-quarter turnovers.

The non-roughing call I'll give you. It was a good counterbalance to the BS holding call on Breno Giacomini.

(three fourth-quarter turnovers)

Again I call BS because the turnover play would have been a non-issue had we received the automatic first down. I really do think we're going to see some review changes soon though. Oh and that BS (yet ANOTHER BS call) on whitner for the "hit to the head and neck area" that was actually shoulder pad. Don't tell me whitner hasn't been singled out for BS calls all season long.

Fandboyism off

It was a good game. That last 4th quarter drive had me on the edge of my seat. I really don't think the Seahawks have what it takes to beat the Broncos though. That offense is anemic and to keep up with peyton they'll have to put up points. The defense is solid on both teams but Broncos O is just going to be too much. I think the 9ers D would have had a better shot at getting pressure (was it 4 sacks? 5? against the seahawks last night) and forcing peyton to hurry his throws.
Seattle has a better secondary than the 9ers but there's no better front 7 in the NFL.
I'd much rather see the NFC win the SB but I just don't think they'll be able to handle everything they're going to face. If they start as slow as they did last night it will be over by the first half.

I'm not a football (or really any sport) fan - but it is still sometimes interesting to watch the people watching it (and sometimes fun to watch the thing itself)

Seahawks beat the Broncos 40/10 in preseason.

As far as calls, the last time we were at the super bowl the refs took away the game winning touchdown on a technicality. I guess that's why they're called the "Steelers"

That said, we also have the most penalties in the NFL, and it does cost us in every game.

Denver's offense isn't prepared for how much ground Earl Thomas can cover and how often their WRs will get jammed at the line, hard. Peyton's usual quick throws won't be there as much, and we'll see how good his O-line really is once he's forced to start holding onto the ball longer.
