Report: Clete Blakeman to referee Super Bowl 50 http://wp.me/p14QSB-9Y7L

I wonder how Bill B got a Head Ref who doesn't call DPI appointed to the game?

Quite possible it won't matter, since Denver is a better team.

I struggle to see how Denver scores. NE will get slowed down by Denver's D, but they are going to get 20, aren't they?

Smuggler:

If the Pats lose to the Broncos. I'll be shocked.

Tom Brady will as usual own Peyton Manning.

In a hugh game such as this weekends game Vs the Denver Broncos and with reports that the Pat's are generally more healthy than they've been as the regular season wound down.

With the work ethic Bill Belichick instills in his side. Given the fact of life for the Denver Broncos and facing a legitimate most outstanding Head Coach in the NFL or as we know his nickname......Hoody Genius.

I wouldn't advise a bet on the Broncos....against the spread (Pat's -3.5). The NE Patriots will as I view it.....COVER the spread.

Certainly .....don't bet the Denver Broncos straight up.

B and B have a lot to prove this season with all that deflation of the football baloney. All that really did was inspire a tougher Tom Brady if he wasn't already tough enough. With a Super Bowl victory. Tom Brady will nudge himself up in the eyes of the people that care about such and who's the GREATEST QB of all time.

The same may be said and Bill Belichick's legacy as an NFL Coach of undisputed renown. AS 'the BEST' he's not even marginally challenged.

The team that will stand in the Pat's way of all that being a reality will be the yet to be officially named NFL's MVP Cam Newton led Carolina Panthers also installed by Vegas as 3.5 Point Favourites to defeat the Arizona Cardinals. ** The NFL's First Franchise Team.

** The Cardinals, founded in 1898 and a charter member of the National Football League, hold the distinction of being the oldest continuously run professional football franchise in the nation.

Smuggler: You might want to smartly take the Card's and the points.

One hurdle that the Panthers have to be concerned with is the will of one man. This man is somehow like Bill Belichick in his style of being a Head coach ...well as I view him. Even tougher on the exterior. The Carolina Ron Rivera led Cardinals must overcome the outstanding tough leadership of the Arizona Cardinals Head Coach Bruce Arians.

The Cards will have to play a hell of a lot better than they did against us if they want to play in the SB. Denver's D is the real deal but their problem is Manning. He should have retired last summer. So if NE meets Carolina Brady and company are gonna have their hands full.

I don't think so. The Packers played a solid game. The Cards looked the way they did because of the Packers.

I agree with you.

The Super Bowl will feature:

NE Vs Carolina.

It's a Super Matchup. I expect an exciting game.

I'll be cooking Ribs dripping in a Special Sauce and a Potato Scallop and Caesar Salad and Crusty Rolls and washing all that down with James Ready Original Red Ale.

Yum !

Yes, we played great even if we were short handed so kudos to the guys and the coaching staff. Don't tell Woody. He's ready to help McCarthy clean out his office.

If Carolina gets after Palmer like we did AZ is in trouble.

It's all about closing.

How the game finishes and WHY? it got ....just......and Packers ..there .... again ...with MM as HC. Pugger

You should be more pissed about the defensive collapse in OT rather than MM not going for 2 and losing the coin toss. And I believe your ranting for MM's head is because of the Seattle game and this AZ game when Aaron never got a chance to finish out the game. You weren't calling for Mike's head after the WC game in Washington.

[mraynrand]

Give Woody a break, he's the typical entitlement-type fan who thinks their team oughtta win it all every year, and any thing less is grounds for firing. Unfortunately, he's not alone.

[smuggler]

Brady has never "owned" Peyton. But it's irrelevant. The Pats defense is okay, but Manning should be able to put up enough for the W. 24 points wins it. I don't see the Pats getting more than 23 points.

I have a feeling Carolina gets their shit pushed in.

DEN - ARZ

No doubt. Manning and Brady have never been on the field at the same time except during the coin toss and shaking hands after the game.

Pats secondary isn't the greatest. We'll see. I'm not gonna pick it. I got no idea how this one will play out.
