Well it is a miracle Denver is in the Super Bowl, even NASCAR fans could figure that one out. Peyton is officially the worst QB in Super Bowl history. No QB has had a worse season and represented a team in the Super Bowl. But I am sure you will tell me this entire season is irrelevant and that Peyton and Marty McFly will go back to the future and Peyton will trade places with Peyton from 5 years ago and totally destroy us.

Sometimes you can just read the tea leaves with sports. Don't even need to nitpick stats. Panthers and Cam have seem destined this year. Now they are here. All season long it has been apparent Manning should of retired. Now, it will show on the biggest of stages.

Carolina could of lost more games....and as a product of that faced more teams with winning records

Here is what most Bronco fans seem to think/say Bronco Fan: Uh, we have the greatest defense. Unless you played Denver your offense hasn't been tested b/c no one in the NFL plays great defense. That is all we need. Oh, and the AFC was so much tougher than the NFC. NFC was so weak. See ya, I have to go watch Von Miller sack Cam in 2012.

End of the day....I think homefield will be the ultimate difference maker. Arians got his ass kicked (then foolishly claimed he had no intention of playing for it to begin with and Cards and fans were desperate enough to buy into that bologna). Carolina wiped the floor with Tampa bc it was important. AZ and Palmer haven't looked good for a couple games now and I think when you look back that week will be the key. tomorrow will show why it matters IMO. I'd give AZ the edge in AZ in this one. Think our homefield aids us in defending them and we do what we do on both sides.

Well based on your avatar selection you at least have some good sense/taste. welcome

my guess, they won't reply until after the game. Then it will be brutal. Natural instinct IMO is for the immediate response but @ Carolina is just at the top of it's game.

BOA is pretty welcoming by NFL standards. In you have a bad experience as an opposing fan it generally would be b/c you went looking for trouble. Some stadiums you really have to worry about home fans just looking to ruin your time. Overall we seem to let people enjoy their hard earned purchase and enjoy the game. A little jab hear or there for good fun is about the worst of it usually.

Need a stop. Need to kill this mometuem

you may not be willing to admit it until after Seattle is eliminated......but we both know this Seattle isn't on par with the past couple versions. But you know it. That Seattle D has some holes now and that couldn't be said in the past. Wagner and Lane didn't solve them....they just disappeared for a second thanks to Jimmy Clausen and all the garbage QBs you played after Carolina that helped Seattle look good on paper. It is Cam's year....and we both sense it. We can do this my team your team banter if you want. But in sports you often can just see the writing on the wall. This ain't Seattle's year.

Okay, check the scoreboard in a couple weeks... Panthers have only been around since 1995. Jags and Hou are the only ones that can pull the let's compare what we have done in our history card....and it not be foolish

Nothing in life is 100% black or white. They aren't all racist but it is a component of it for many. did you read the article? B/c it basically addresses your question. Russell Wilson outside of the fact he has mobile play style ....fits into the stereotypical QB box probably better than a lot of current white QBs.

Well Cam is pretty blunt...he doesn't give a poo if you think or NFL history thinks a QB should act like a robot. He he isn't going to put on an "act". He is just going to be himself. Funniest part is overall people are against that. Prenteding to be someone he isn't for cameras is essentially what many argue would be the right thing....which frankly at the root of it is ridiculously. You should edit your post and make the distinction that YOU think a NFL QB should put on an act and pretend to fit textbook definition that was written years and years ago. you should read this http://www.slate.com/articles/sports/sports_nut/2016/01/cam_newton_of_the_carolina_panthers_has_stretched_the_sports_world_s_racial.html

Nah, he will superman, dab, first down point and considering this is a postseason game at BOA he likely could fly in the Rockettes for a 8 minute celebration with a half intermission.....all over the Hawks on Sunday. Hell, he could of done the Barry Sanders and handed it to the ref every score this year....and that shtick would have grown old too considering how often he would have done it

Like I said...when you say that, it is hard for anyone to take you seriously. Seriously. reality is still reality, Cam led his team to a 15-1 record....while scoring the most TDs in the NFL, being the best chain mover in the NFL, and leading the #1 scoring offense. Wilson had a very good year. His best individual performance. If it wasn't for other players it could of been an MVP caliber season. But the other guys exist.

No doubt Wilson is good and the Hawks MVP but when you say that....it basically means nothing you say will be taken seriously.

Best part is how they focus on them being different and ignore the part our offense turned into a machine as the season went in and went from good to a point scoring machine. Also so like the fact that they totally ignore the fact Seattle played a bunch of arena league QBs to make their run and that any upper tier QB has had there way with them expect for that one weird AZ game

Can't really define Stewart by looking at his ypc. He was critical in the win earlier in the year. 3-4 steady yards is crucial. Jeremy Lane has been shutdown....but you have to keep in mind the horrific QBs that Seattle has played. Your prior CB would have shown better QB play as well if he had stayed for that stretch by default of who those QBs were. you don't have to be impressed with our WRs....but you gotta see how that comment is a little funny coming from Seattle fans. I mean, Ginn and company of late have been about as impressive as the Seattle corps of late.....and we of course have Olsen

I don't think they are as good as prior season which is why I pointed out the consistent issues that have shown on their D all year....and did last week. but they are still good. They also by default force us into a certain attack on offense.

Well, Seattle D is about as good as it gets so some of the mismatches we will look for have more to do with us than you....but we have struggled doing that as effectively vs Seattle. Another aspect will be interesting to see how much of it was Quinn. Right now, an argument could be made he may have been a bigger key than some admit to. Cam is a mismatch in general so as always, we will rely on the mismatches he simply presents to every single opposing D. I think there is a realistic argument he is the biggest matchup issue in the NFL by virtue of his ability and the fact Carolina/Cam show no fear in deploying him. The obvious in terms of Seattle has been the consistent issues that have popped up all season long with teams making more key plays with the TE in years past. I know after the last meeting Hawks tried to downplay it as a simple blown coverage but I would argue it was a blown coverage b/c they often have struggled with that position. Saw it last week in crunch time. 2 plays to the TE late set up the Vikings to win. The TE in Carolina is probably the focal point of our O in many aspects. as far as when we are on defense...every Seattle game IMO our defense has had huge opportunities. We have failed. But they are always there. Sometimes it gets refered to as Wilson being lucky....but really it is Carolina failing to capitalize when they force Seattle into plays that should be a negative that for whatever reason we simply don't finish on. For whatever reason often some plays that we should be able to really hurt Seattle on have resulted in huge plays for them. I think Seattle probably feels the same way in that they can get Cam to make a mistake and historically they capitalize. I would say this season has been different in that Carolina has capitalized on those plays probably more so than any team in the NFL....and our turnover ratio should make that pretty apparent. Seattle was forced by RB injuries to shift what they do but overall I think both matchup well and are a tough out for each other. Games usually come down to a handful of obvious plays that determine them. I expect another tough game. I think Carolina comes into this one at different confidence level than any other meeting...and they should. People won't say it, but I think on the flip side Seattle might have legit reasons to have a little more doubt than prior meetings as well.

Hendrix was born there....looked around, and left

Seattle definatelty gets credit for 90s grunge. That's it.

well, it seems you guys are focused on the past and not the present. Present day is the 2015-2016 season. One in which Carolina has beaten Seattle head to head and been the overall better team. I mean does a game years ago against rookie Cam, Steve Smith, different coaches, etc mean much today? Old belts are in your house. Ain't no one worried about those... Seattle this year has flaws prior teams didn't. Also hard to deny this MVP Cam caliber team is different too. Should be an epic game

You are welcome to share your thoughts and opinions. They do can be pro-Seattle thoughts. But you can do that in a semi- adult manner. Those rules apply to Panther fans and most definately apply to guests who visit the site for a week and fail to return after their team loses. Let's calm it down with the insults please.

Well, we could of lost more games like Seattle did....and then as a by product more of our opponents could of had winning records.
