Carolina looks like the better team, but the Broncos may actually give the Panthers all they can handle.
The Broncos havent had to play a real team yet. First they got the injury riddled Steelers without Antonio Brown, LeVeon Bell, DeAngelo Williams, etc. and a hobbled Big Ben. Then they got another injury devastated team with NE. The Patriots just werent the same team after the injuries accumulated.
This time around they arent at home, and face the best overall team in the NFL this year, who are coming off of back to back (near) blowouts of high end opponents.
Carolina is going to make Peyton look very old.
It seems that way.
How many of us predicted that the Hawks would blow out the Broncos in the SB?
I thought it would be a close game, but they annihilated them.
So in a weird way, despite all the recent evidence, it seems premature to write off Denver.
But I was garbage in all of my picks this postseason, and thought Palmer would have resolve today.
Enough of the risky pick, I'm behind Carolina CRUSHING Peytonicus!
