Sherman: Denver Broncos "Not the second best team"

[STBR 27]

Yet you skipped over my post showing plenty of young talent, and a wealth of picks to get even younger.

I did not skip over your post, I saw where you mentioned a few good young players, some who have played very little and some who haven't played at all. Young does not equal good, many teams have young players that don't amount to shit. And if you are counting on draft picks, good luck, that has not been a strong suit of the 49ers the last couple of years.

Well ya, I agree that Seattle wins that game probably 7 or 8 of 10 times. But my point is I don't think Denver is as bad as they looked Sunday night.

The best teams step up on the biggest stage. The Broncos were frauds.

The 9ers secondary lacks the punch that the 'Hawks have ...this I know. That being said the whole Broncos team sucked....the 9ers would have won easily in the SB. It wasn't just on Peyton.

There are probably 5 or 6 teams that would have beat Denver that day.

Well, i think everyone agrees with Sherman but he shouldn't be the one saying it. That is pretty disrespectful for a player to say.

The Broncos only had to beat the Chargers and Patriots to get to the SB; neither of those teams were playoff-ready AT ALL and Denver had a virtual cakewalk. That said, I think the Denver D would have been much more equipped to deal with Kaeptain Kaengeroo and Frank Gore than Russell Wilson's offense; not to mention that the 49ers D is not even close to Seattle's dominance.

So I agree.

The Denver D showed up, except they could not handle Harvin very well and held the Hawks to FG's mostly in the 1st half. After Harvin ran back a TD at the beginning of the 2nd half they were disheartened and lost enthusiasm. The offense lacked confidence and played nervous and scared increasingly.
