So who wins the SB

[Clayton]

I'm guessing Sherman, Thomas, Maxwell, and Lane want nothing to do with Decker, Thomas, and Thomas.

Um...what? These guys match up perfectly with them.

Welker on the other hand I'm not sure about

 

[the_broom]

yeah, I don't think Welker or Decker are going to want to be setting picks on Chancellor.

Nah...they'll let Julius Thomas or D.T. handle those picks...

The guy was not talking about whether they matched up well but was talking about whether they would want to meet Chancellor setting a pick. I just said I didn't think anybody other than Chancellor would really want to meet the other receivers considering Decker is 220 and the next biggest guy after Chancellor that they have is I think around 200. Then for the Broncos you have a guy like J. Thomas who is 255 and I like his chances setting a pick against any of these guys even Chancellor. Now for actual match ups yes I do think they are pretty evenly matched across the board.

All the discussion is fascinating, but it comes down to one simple thing. If Denver hangs on to the ball...they win the game.

It'll be fun to watch the Seattle secondary throwing their weight around to counter that.

Learn the rules. It's not illegal.

Learn the rules. It's not illegal.

PICKS are illegal, RUBS are not.

What Denver is doing is rubbing. ie, using a shoulder of one man to get another man open. One reciever runs a route that and that man just so happens to hit the shoulder of a guy covering another reciever. This is legal.

Now, if you take a guy and straight up run into him like you see in the NBA, yeah then it's illegal.

I'm assuming this would be considered illegal

You would be wrong.

As Mike Perreira explained in the broadcast, since Welker made contact at the same time the ball got to DT, it is legal.

He gets there before the ball, it is a penalty.

This also came up earlier in the season against the Chargers in San Diego I think.

Patriots, Broncos excel at running pick plays, which are mostly legal | The MMQB with Peter King

“I kind of chuckle because everybody goes, ‘That’s a pick play! That’s a pick play!’ ” says former ref Jim Daopoulos, who spent 11 years as an on-field official and 12 more as an NFL supervisor of officials. “Well, pick plays are legal. It’s legal to throw a pick.”

You should also learn the rules.

You are wrong.

Picks are legal. It's a fine line, but Denver and NE run them a lot and are better than any team in the league at it.

I won't pretend to know more than Perreira, but saying Welker made contact at the same time iand that it's legal is ridiculous. Welker was not going for the ball and was at least 4-5 yds aways from where Peyton threw the ball.

C'mon, it's obvious what they were doing.

When they try to 'Rub' the secondary, the Hawks need to break the tiny little guys in half.

Yeah, let's see Welker try to rub Kam Chancellor next Sunday. The only "picking" the Broncos will be doing then is picking each other up off the turf

 

[Uhsplit]

it means more post season experience and he's playing in a 3rd SB . LOL at trying to paint being in 21 playoff games as a negative.

I get your thinking but 10-11 isn't a bad thing as much as good thing at this stage.

What is Russell Wilson's playoff record?

Seeing how it will be 20 degrees at kick off and prolly the usual New Jersey swirling winds. I think Seattle will have the advantage 'cause they have the better defense.

Seattle- 24
Denver- 20

C'mon Man....
The Broncos will put 20 pts on the board in the 1st half alone....before they go on to win it 35-27

That could happen.
Seattle has been great at second half adjustments the last 2 years. Look at last weeks game. Seattle down 10-3 at the half. Great adjustments in the second half.
It very well could be 20-10 at the half. I could see a 27 23 Seattle victory. Not a shock to this old Seahawk fan.

I guess your predicting the Seahawks plane crashes on the way to NYC and another AFC team are called up to replace them for the game?
