Superbowl prediction (R-1)

This year’s super bowl game will be the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks. The Super bowl will be held on Sunday February 2, 2014. Kick off this year will be at about 6:25 p.m. at MetLife stadium in New Jersey. Both the Denver Broncos as well as the Seattle Seahawks were 13 and 3 coming in the Super bowl. The Broncos were 7 and 1 at home while the Seahawks were 6 and 3. I believe this year the Denver Broncos will win against the Seattle Seahawks. I believe the Broncos will win by two scores. I believe Peyton Manning will throw over 300 yards while Russell Wilson will throw over 220 yards. I also believe the Denver Broncos will shut down Marshawn Lynch. I think Lynch will have no more than 115 yards. The Broncos rushing game will do ok but not great due to Seattle’s defense. I do not think the Seattle defense will be able to stop Peyton Manning. I believe Richard Sherman will not be able to shut down Peyton Manning. I don't believe Richard Sherman will be running his mouth after this game. I believe Richard Sherman will not have anything to say if the Seattle Seahawks lose on Sunday. If the Denver Broncos win on Sunday this will be their first Super bowl win in Seattle history. Good luck to both teams on Sunday.

NFL- Richard Sherman Interview (Q-1)

After the Seattle Seahawks picked up a win against the San Francisco with a score of 17 to 23 ESPN had a chance to interview Richard Sherman. Richard Sherman is the Seattle Seahawks starting corner back. Sherman wears jersey number 25. The interview that was with Richard Sherman represents the whole Seattle team. Sherman’s interview was disrespectful, rude and just plain un-professional. Sherman's interview just displays how little class he has. Sherman repeatedly bad talked and disrespected San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree. Crabtree wears the jersey number 15 and also represents his team. Crabtree showed sportsmanship and class during and after the game. Crabtree held his head high after losing in the last round of the playoffs while Sherman repeatedly talked down his game. Sherman said "I was making sure everybody knew Crabtree was a mediocre receiver." He also continued to say "And when you try the best corner in the game with a mediocre receiver that's what happens." After Sherman’s interview Crabtree tweeted, "Film don't lie... @nflnetwork @espn pull up the tape of that game and show me where this guy is the best? #fake #fake #fake". Crabtree also said "We just couldn't capitalize. Sherman made a good play. That's probably the only play he made all game." Sherman did not like that comment and retaliated. Sherman says that the two players dislike for each other started back in the off season. Sherman did not go into any further details about the situation. Sherman did make the statement, "He said something personal face to face. He knows what he said and he knows I'm going to be tough on him the rest of his career." Richard Sherman and the rest of the Seattle Seahawks will have to practice hard to get ready for the Broncos in the Super Bowl.

Pro Bowl Updates (P-2)

This year the Pro Bowl will be set up a little different than every other year. This year there will be two teams just like every other time but, they will not be divided by conferences. The teams will be Jerry Rice's team and Deon Sanders team. The game will be on Sunday, January 26th at 7:30 pm. This year’s game will also introduce the new Pro Bowl jerseys. This year’s Pro Bowl will involve a lot of new faces including many rookies and even some veterans in the NFL that have not been involved in the past. The Draft was held on January 21, 2014. This year I believe will be different not only the teams but the atmosphere. I believe it will be different due to the fact many things have been changed this year. One thing being that there will be two teams but the teams will have drafted players instead of two teams consisting of conference. The coach of Sander’s team is Chuck Pagano. The captains of Sander’s team are J.J Watt and Jamaal Charles. The captains of Rice’s team will consist of Drew Brees and Robert Quinn. The coach of this team will be Ron Rivera. This far in the draft only full backs, centers, guards, and defensive tackles. Long snappers, punters and special team players have also been selected. I believe this Pro Bowl will be exciting due to the fact players get to play will players they wouldn’t normally get to work will. Both teams so far have pretty strong rosters this far into the 2014 Pro Bowl draft. This year Jerry Rice’s team will be in orange while Sander’s will be in yellow. This year will have many familiar faces while there will also be some new faces this year. Good luck to both teams.

NFL Playoffs (P-1)

With the first round of the playoffs over only 4 teams advanced to the next round. The teams that advanced were the Seattle Seahawks, the Denver Broncos, the San Francisco 49ers, and the New England Patriots. The New England Patriots took a win over the Colts with a score of 22 to 43. The San Francisco 49ers also took a win over the Panthers with a score of 23 to 10 while the Broncos beat the Chargers. The score of the game was 24 to 17.The Seattle Seahawks beat the New Orleans Saints with a score of 23 to 15. Next week the Seahawks will meet the San francisco 49ers in Seattle. I believe the Seahawks will play a great game but i think the 49ers will just play a little better. This game will be a madder of who makes more mistakes on defense. This is a defensive game due to the fact both teams have an incredible offense so whoever makes a mistake on defense could cause them the game. Both teams also have a great defense. This game will be held on Sunday at 6:30 pm. The Patriots will be playing the Broncos on Sunday at 3:00 at Mile High statium. I believe the Tom Brady and the Patriots will beat the Broncos in a very close game. I believe Tom Brady will also have better statistics than Peyton Manning. I also believe the Broncos passing game will not be as good as it has been this season. Steven Ridley will have a good rushing game while Julian Edelman will have a good game with at least one touchdown. The Patriots defense will be able to stop the Broncos this weeka in the playoffs. I believe the Patriots will advance to the playoffs. I believe the Super Bowl game should be the San Francisco 49ers facing the New England Patriots.

Playoff Standings (O-2)

This year for the NFL there are 8 teams hoping to advance from the playoffs. Those teams would include the San Diego Chargers, the San Francisco 49ers, the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. The other four teams led their divisions in the regular season. Those teams include the New England Patriots, the Denver Broncos, the Seattle Seahawks, and the Carolina Panthers. All of those teams hope to advance closer to the Super Bowl but only 4 will advance to next week. One game this week will be the Carolina Panthers facing the San Francisco 49ers. I believe the 49ers will pull out a win this week in the playoffs. Another game is the Denver Broncos and the San Diego Chargers. I believe the Chargers will overcome the odds and take another win over the Broncos. The New Orleans Saints will be playing the Seattle Seahawks. I believe it will be a close game but Russell Wilson will lead the Seahawks to victory this week. One more game this week is the Indianapolis Colts and the New England Patriots. I believe Tom Brady will take a loss to the Colts this week in the playoffs. Only four teams will advance and all these teams will be giving it their all to make their teams the teams to advance. These teams have been working hard all year and they will work even harder this week than all others. These teams are the best of the best this season and they all think they have what it takes to advance. These games will all be very close games. All of these teams are hoping to make it all the way to the Super Bowl. Good luck to all of these teams.

Wild Card in NFL (O-1)

In the 2013 to 2014 NFL season only 8 teams advanced to the playoffs. Those teams included the New Orleans Saints, the Philadelphia Eagles, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Indianapolis Colts. The San Diego Chargers,the Cincinnati Bengals, The San Francisco 49ers and the Green Bay Packers were also included in the wildcard games. Out of those 4 games only 4 teams advance to the playoffs. One team that advanced was the Saints with a final score of 26 to 24 against the Eagles. Drew Brees played a good game throwing 20 for 30 with 250 yards and 1 touchdown. Another game was the Chiefs and Colts. The Colts came up with a big win this week with a tight score of 45 to 44. Andrew Luck really brought it this week throwing 29 for 45 with 443 yards and 4 touchdowns. The final score of the 49ers and Packers game ended the Packers season with a final score of 23 to 20. Colin Kaepernik really played a great game. Kaepernik threw 16 for 30 with a total of 227 yards and a touchdown. The game that did not end as close was the Bengals and the Chargers game. The Bengals just couldn't keep up with the Chargers this week. Phillip Rivers played a good game going 12 for 16 with 128 yards and a single touchdown. Ronnie Brown touched the ball only 8 times and had 77 yards rushing. These teams will now advance to the playoffs only to face teams who led their division in the regular season. All these teams played great this season and with the teams that have ended their season I’m sure they will be working harder for the upcoming season. The teams that have advanced all have the same dream. That dream is making it to the biggest game of the year, The Super Bowl.
