SuperBowl L - Game Day

Bring on SuperBowl L! Will I be going out of my way to watch? Nope.

Here's what this game boils down to.
The nearly undefeated Carolina Panthers who've only lost one game this season, against the Denver Broncos, that relied on their home field advantage to take the AFC title.

SuperBowl XLVIII; Broncos blow out the New England Patriots in Denver to take the AFC title. Face the Seattle Seahawks for the big dance; can't even score a touchdown. Get blown out.

SuperBowl XLIX; Broncos can't inch past the Indianapolis Colts to the AFC finals. Patriots dominate the Colts, limiting them to only a touchdown, and face the Defending Champions, the Seattle Seahawks. Win sparingly.

SuperBowl L, this year; Broncos vs Patriots in Denver. Broncos win by 2.
If the past foreshadows at all, the Broncos will be utterly dominated. Playing a team that was known for their defensive prowess, and flexed their offensive strength against the Arizona Cardinals. The Panthers, who were the last of the undefeated teams this season. First and only loss coming in Week 16, to the Atlanta Falcons.
Let's face facts; it isn't looking good.

I'm not saying, "Broncos have no chance. They will lose." I'm just saying that given the stats and numbers, they have their game set up for them, and it doesn't look like a fun go.

With Peyton Manning's contract ending after this season, it would be nice to see such an amazing player go out as a champ. But then again he could pull a Brett Favre and stick around. As nice as seeing him leave on a win, the Broncos will really have their work cut out for them, and the Panthers will not hand it to them. And they shouldn't. But the blind fans need to just see what others see, the odds, stats, and figures of the situation.

Mean really Broncos fans, do you want to be the Leafs fans for the NFL? Blindly cheering no matter how awful the situation.
The blue team is very different; the Broncos are respectable, and can win. Do win. But your answer to being part of SuperBowl L and argument to why you win at home against others can't be, "Who's playing in the SuperBowl this year?" and "LET'S GO BRONCOS!!! LET'S GO!"

We'll find out how they stack up at 6:30pm.
