I just have to shake my head at Palmer sometimes.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-24-2016, 06:51 PM

This one looks done. No Super Bowl for Fitz.

Feel for Fitzgerald, but man, Carolina is fun to watch

Cam is the best QB, the best player in the NFL this year, and he seems like a genuinely good dude.

What is Palmer doing? Not that it matters at this point. The Broncos will need to be stellar in Santa Clara.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-24-2016, 07:30 PM

Arizona's an interesting team this offseason. Clearly close to a Super Bowl, but Carson Palmer doesn't appear good enough to take them to the next level.

Wood · 01-24-2016, 07:33 PM

As a Broncos fan I felt like Arizona would be the easier match up so I'm a little nervous. I really enjoy watching the Panthers though so it'll be a great Super Bowl

I like Newton, but I want to see him get shut-out worse than Brady did

What's the record for most turnovers in a championship game?

Aaron Rodgers would have had a prayer. Palmer, what a debacle. Once a Bengal...

Senator Clay Davis · 01-24-2016, 07:47 PM

I mean from 2nd in MVP voting, to you have to find a new QB in two playoff games. Jesus Carson.

Brady got hit 20 times today, more than any QB in any game this season!

Will be really interesting to see Denver's pass rushers against Carolina's O-Line. If Manning can prevent the turnovers should be a good SB.

habernac · 01-25-2016, 06:43 AM

I don't watch Arizona much, but is Palmer always that bad? Or was he just trying to get into the record books somehow? It's like he wasn't watching the coverage or anything.

Kudos to Denver, their defense was incredible. Feel bad for Gostkowski, he's so money and is now blaming himself. That OT would have been fun to watch.

Goddamn I hate the AFC so much. What I wouldn't give for like, an Oakland Raiders vs Miami Dolphins AFC championship game. I guess that's what happens when over 50% of the conference is incompetent but honestly, I wish the Colts, Ravens, Steelers, Broncos, and Patriots would go away for a while.

SuperMatt18 · 01-25-2016, 09:52 AM

Hopefully the defense for Denver can make this close.

I worry that it might be a repeat of the Broncos-Seahawks from a couple years back.

All Manning has to do is Dilfer his way to a second title. Kubiak is an awful second half coach but Carolina has a habit of second half ineptitude themselves. AZ was a team that benefited from a weak schedule and got exposed against good teams they played, I'm thinking this game will be closer than people expect.

Denver keeps winning ugly and it can't be discounted that they beat the Pats twice this season, a team many were ready to hand the title to several times and the championship game before it was ever played. No one believes in us!

Jbo · 01-25-2016, 10:20 AM

Denvers defence is playing possessed right now. The locker room really wants to send Manning away with a ring. They are also a group that has been battle tested in the playoffs and been to the big show before. So many factors and CAR could still end up on top, but I think Denver has a better shot then most people give them credit for.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-25-2016, 10:23 AM

Broncos chances are pretty simple, if they can stay in front or keep it to a 1 score game, they have a chance. If they need to rally from 10 or more behind, they have virtually no chance. They have an amazing game manager as their QB, but he's still extremely limited in what he can do throwing the ball down the field. So as long as the game is close and the Broncos can still to short passes and running, they have a good chance. If they fall behind 14-0 early on, it'll probably be a slaughter. Or we could see Brock.
