Mannnings was not great yesterday. He missed two open guys for TD's and they had too settle for 3 points. He also threw the backwards pass that gave NE there first Td... The score could of been a blow out if manning was on.

Brady outplayed Manning. And has for the last 3 years IMO. But this is not vintage manning. This is his worse season yet he managed to get them to the bowl with his noodle arm and fragile old body. Youo have to give him credit for that dont you?

Of course he gets credit.
Sure his defence was the best in the NFL, which helps him tremendously. But he still has to make the throws and he did that. Just like Kaepernick in SB47.

That second TD pass to Daniels was spot on. Not a bullet, but a high floating ball that was right where it needed to be at exactly the right time. Hard up against the sideline. Pressure situation in a championship game.

For a bloke who can't throw Manning goes OK.

I'm more a casual viewer these days, but on form, we're expecting Carolina to shit it in against the Broncos in the superbowl?

No love for Andrew Luck? I'd have him above Wilsom easily, despite his injury ravaged season.

Luck is a better passer. But wilson along with Cam are dual threats with the run game. And seem to have more confidence then Luck. I think luck could become the best thou in a season or two.

Luck gets no love cause most of his team is shit. He carried the team for 3 years and this year he was pretty much injured from the word go.

Brady outplayed Manning last year and this year, 2013 Manning smashed records and his team beat the Patriots to go to the SB.

Manning is now 3-2 vs Brady in the championship games.

Panthers should win this game but if the Denver defence turn up to play it will go down to the wire imo.

The Cardinals shit the bed 2 weeks in a row to be honest they were just lucky Rodgers had no weapons left and the Panthers showed what Rodgers would have done to them the week before.

Panthers also have a knack for falling asleep in second halves and no matter what you think of Manning he has engineered some 4th quarter comebacks this year and if his team goes with him we could be in for a great finish.

So far so good for Denver... looked like Carolina had Hayne blocking the blitz that led to the sack/touchdown :lol:.

Wow, what a defensive play... I'm starting to think this isn't going to be as easy for the Panthers as we think it is.

Indeed, Denver look like they're switched on today.

Carolina might think they were unlucky with the review of the incomplete pass on 1st down before the Denver TD, but I think the corner of the ball touched the ground before the receiver rolled over and kept it off the secodn time?
