    I can't stop crying......lol!!! Brady took such a beating. Wade Phillips must have talked to tom coughlin, cause it was textbook how to beat Brady, hit him hard and hit him often.

    Few teams have the defensive personnel to get many hits on Brady...the Broncos do

    If they put that pressure on Newton, they'll win....but Carolina's O Line is impressive

    Oh boy now two weeks of pure unadulterated hype. I have a feeling I am going to be sick of Cam before the game is even played.

    But unlike Brady...Cam can run away from defenders and is very tough to bring down

    Truth...it should be interesting... Manning is going to have to be better than yesterday for them to win

    I'm personally hoping for a Peyton Manning melt down like he had in week 10 against the Chiefs. I used to be a mild Manning fan, but when he went to the Broncos that changed everything. I hate, hate, hate the Broncos. So I am rooting heavily for the Panthers on this one.

    I don't have a horse in the race (Steelers fan here), but I am rooting for Manning to close out his career with a ring. I also detest Cam Newton and the rest of that arrogant-*** team.

    That being said, both defenses are stout and should prove to be a great game. It will be interesting to see what Denver drums up to slow down Newton. He's a weapon, no doubt and he presents a lot of problems for a defense to solve.

    If Cam and his offensive line is superior to New Englands they will win pretty easy, if not it will be a good game. I don't watch much NFL football, but was impressed with Denvers D. I think Manning has a shot at being one of those one and done qb's, like the guy from Green Bay, etc.

    So I guess I'm the token Panthers fan though not a fan of Cam.

    I think the coverage on TV may seem like they are cockie and arrogant but I but I see that more as a team that has gelled, with common goals on the field and ownership and leadership that while letting them be individuals won't tolerate poor behavior even off the field (Greg Hardy all the way back to Kerry Collins).

    Off the field these are decent guys...I suspect again a reflection of Richardson (owner) wanting them to have a positive impact on the community. Very involved and engaged. I suspect the giving away the balls to kids in the stands is just another reflection of that mindset.

    No doubt Payton's experience is formidable and the Panthers are pretty banged up (Thomas Davis breaking his arm won't help). But the Panthers are a hard hitting, in your face team.

    It will be interesting...
