    I'm simply asking if you take out Peyton and put in any other QB in league history if they win.......

    Good questions and I would say no. The Hawks defense just played that good. For Peyton the best student of the game and 2 weeks to disect it on film to be that razzled? He looked as uncomfortable as I've ever seen him. Maybe a mobile QB would've stood a better chance buying time outside the pocket and making plays.

    Not if the rest of the team played like they played ..but would they have? The stigma of Peyton being a choker weighed heavily on the whole team, IMO

    Agreed

    I don't think he would of had to...but he could of .... Seattle did nothing fancy ....they never do... they are just young, fast, and good ... that being said, I agree with whoever said Seattle got in Denver's head ...they looked defeated IMMEDIATELY ...one of the ladies watching the game with us said, "Why does he look so sad?" talking about Manning - they were only down by 5 at that point

    For the Brady backers....

    How many Super Bowls does he win if Spygate doesn't exist? He hasn't won one since it was broke that they videotaping...

    It's tough to complete downfield throws if the O-line can't block anyone and the recievers are covered

    No he would not have. Seattle would have dominated in the same fashion with Brady in there. Any QB needs time to throw and seperation between receivers/db's to have any success.

    I agree, yet I never hear it mentioned when people talk about him as the greatest of all time.

    Yeah I don't buy the Spygate reasoning either. Not like they faded into oblivion. They made it back twice and to AFC championship games/playoffs/owned the East/etc...... And aside from a fluke play that we'll never see again would've won another ring.

    Denver looked like a boxer that wasn't properly warmed up mentally and physically before a fight. The head coach needs to be held accountable on that level.

    I was right....... :)

    "Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has spoken out on his band's official website, responding to widespread reports that he and his bandmates were not plugged in when they played the Super Bowl halftime show with Bruno Mars this past Sunday. While he admits that the Peppers didn't play their instruments live, he insists that this was an unusual circumstance and that normally, the group's "stance on any sort of miming has been that we will absolutely not do it.""
