Conventional wisdom and the folks in Vegas are predicting a Carolina-New England Super Bowl. I wouldn’t have a huge issue with that – the Patriots were the league’s best team for the first three-quarters of the season before injuries set them back a bit. The Panthers have proven that even with a soft schedule, they are legit.
Truth be told, though, I’d prefer to see a couple different story lines play out. Peyton Manning is a shell of the QB he used to be, but I do have a soft spot for seeing legends go out on top. I’d also like to see guys like Carson Palmer and Larry Fitzgerald rewarded for their years of toil on mostly bad to average teams.

Well it’s Denver vs Carolina. Denver is a bit of a surprise. One thing I takeaway from watching the Playoffs is how much the game has changed with the Head Coach’s making decisions to NOT take points when it would of been a near automatic in past years. I don’t think the game has changed that much that you can ignore points in games that are competitive and mean so much.
