1-Man’s Opinion Column–Friday “Super Bowl Sunday-Questions”
“Super Bowl Sunday Questions”
-0-
Denver vs Carolina looks like a matchup of the ‘Old Guard’ (Peyton Manning) and the ‘New Breed’ (Cam Newton), but it is more than just that.
Football Game or IQ-Test…..Will Manning be able to outsmart all the defensive formations Ron Rivera and Carolina will throw at him?
Testing your Manhood….Will shaky Denver offensive line be able to deal with all the blitzes and stunts Carolina will send at Manning?
Broncos stubbornness….Can Denver run ball up inside against Lotolulei and Short, those massive DTs.
Who covers Demaryius Thomas…..Should be fun to watch Josh Norman and CBs try to bracket Denver top wide out?
Do you believe what you see…..Can Cam Newton cope with all the different schemes Wade Philips will throw at him at the line of scrimmage?
Spy-Cam……Does Denver spy Cam Newton-make him stay in the pocket….take away his scramble ability….do they blitz run lanes…hit him…get people at his feet?
Survivor game…..If Newton cannot break containment and move the pocket-will his lose his accuracy down the field?
Secondary matchups…..Isn’t key matchup how the Broncos safeties deal with the beast size of Panthers TE-Greg Olson?
Cornerback clout…..Aqib Talib-Chris Harrs-can run-be physical…will Ted Ginn-Devin Funchness cope with that?
1-Dimension Attack…..If Broncos cannot run, and Peyton Manning is not on the mark deep, how are they going to string drives together?
Glaring stat…..Did you know, going into New England playoff game, Broncos had gone 22-possessions without offensive touchdown?
Unsung heroes….Will this really be decided by a turnover or two and the kickers Brandon McManus and Grahame Gano?
Who Wins….Denver offensive too pedestrian…Peyton no longer what he used to be…Panthers will be slowed down by Orange Crush blitz..but Carolina wins (31-20).
Neutral field…..Carolina jumped out to (31-0) lead over Seattle and (17-0) led on Patriots-but that was in Charlotte-can they do that in Super Bowl in Santa Clara?
Who Wins….Denver offensive too pedestrian…Peyton no longer what he used to be…Panthers will be slowed down by Orange Crush blitz..but Carolina wins (31-20).
