I think the first botched snap contributed a lot to Seattle's beatdown on Denver. Denver's offense was akin to a well oiled machine, a F1 race car. Once that happened you have to wonder what went thru in Peyton's mind until he got the ball back. Then came the 3 and out and an INT for Peyton. One thing led to another. I can't say the botched snap cost Denver the game but it definately had something to do with the outcome and the shellacking.
This game showed how much better the NFC is vs the AFC. Dever's impressive offensive numbers might be embellished a bit because they played in the AFC and thus skewed the so called expert prediction or Vegas line.
