[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 627060, member: 9033"] A couple of points. First, I think the Packers are better than the Broncos. For whatever reason some people think that when you talk about the good aspects of another team, you're saying the other team is better than the Packers (that's not directed at you, just at those that might also read this). Second, there aren't really a lot of teams that have proven able to stop Von Miller coming off the edge and Ware is pretty much the same way at this point. I honestly think that most offenses won't be able to stop the Bronco's edge rushers without help and that handicaps the offense. Third, I'm not sure how many receivers won one-on-one battles. Bridgewater threw 41 passes for 269 yards and Diggs was the leading receiver with 87 yards so I'm not sure how many corners were beaten that badly, especially when the number one concern with playing the Vikings is stopping AD, which the Broncos did (with the exception of one play which is basically just Peterson being Peterson). Finally, and this is what I don't understand, why is everyone so concerned with Manning's arm strength? The Patriots just won the Super Bowl with Brady not throwing the ball more than 15 yards downfield. Now, the Pats have Gronk to compensate but Thomas is really good for the Broncos and the Bronco's defense is MUCH better than the Pat's D was last year. Manning's arm strength at this point is not appreciably worse than Brady's. [/QUOTE]
