Didn't see the game. What did Sherman say? (edit- see it's posted now)

As a Broncos fan I was hoping for the 49ers as I think it's a slightly better matchup. If the Broncos can slow Lynch down they should win. If not, and the Seahawks have some long drives and keep Manning off the field, they could certainly win.

On the other hand, I am very much looking forward to this game. First of all, it's an old AFC West match-up. Secondly, I think the two best teams will be playing, which hasn't happened in a while. And lastly, they played each other in the pre-season in Seattle. The Broncos were going half-speed and preparing for the season. Meanwhile, the Seahawks were playing as if their lives depended on it including a few borderline dirty plays, one of which resulted in a serious injury.

The Broncos payback tour continues right to the end of the year. They lost to San Diego in the regular season and then beat them in the playoffs. They lost to New England in the regular season and then beat them in the playoffs. Now they get to face the Seahawks who beat up the Broncos in the pre-season. This is an oddly familiar script to what played out in 1997 when the Broncos won their first Superbowl.

Should be a great game.
