Seattle is just bullying Denver right out of the ballgame. Wanted Denver to win, but had a bad feeling about this (potential) matchup since the start of the playoffs.
I'm not a Pete Carroll fan, but you gotta give the Seahawks props - this is old school, in ya face, hard hitting football & the Broncos don't want any part of it.

The suicide hotline is going to be ringing off the hook in Denver. You should get a load of the local media out here - I'm guessing 3/4's of Bronco fans couldn't even have named who they were playing before game time. There was a definite "how much do ya think they'll win by?" attitude prevailing.

Enthusiastic to a fault, really. Myopic, too.
I was in the break room @ work back before the AFC championship game and the TV was tuned to ESPN's preview of the NFC matchup. Some gal walked in, gestured to the TV and said "whaddya think of these guys?" I said "well, I think either of 'em is good enough to beat the Broncos" Holy crap, her jaw hit the floor like I just called her kid ugly or something!

Honestly, I think there were maybe five teams in the NFC that could beat the Broncos. Seattle, SF, Carolina and Saints/Eagles could have knocked them off. SF would have routed them just like Seattle did, and Carolina would have won by at least a touchdown, IMO.

This....
...And that 12th fan BS. I gotta think Denver never anticipated the very vocal Seattle fans...that and the true speed of their dbs, to blanket the receivers every step. Nor did they work on any ball handling drills, was Peyton afraid to take a sack, cause he sure used poor judgement a few times to force the ball off, weak butt tackling...prater pooch kicking at 2nd half was stupid, as was Fox not kicking the 3 before halftime (which wasn't bad-better than Bronco's performance anyhow), just to get on the board....and one bad blown non-call by refs on PI/impeding against J.Thomas at the 5 that may have helped greatly in any attempt of mounting a comeback.
Denver's D held up pretty well considering the field and scoring position their O kept leaving them in (Lynch to 39)....as well as that they were down several (6) key starters being out on D to begin with, leaving guys who have seen younger and better days, and guys who skipped every tackling drill they were ever confronted with...I digress, they were stomped....Seattle made Denver a mockery reminding the world of their late 80s teams.
The saving positive...They have now played in 7 Superbowls with 2 wins...err, wait, blowouts shouldnt count, so, make that like 3 SBs....ok, so no one got hurt and will miss next week, oh ef...there are no more games.
When's LOI signing day and the nfl draft?...this season was too long by 59 minutes and 52 seconds!
