The Super Bowl 2014 is live on Sunday and the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos will be streaming online for the SB XLVIII matchup from MetLife Stadium in New Jersey and the game kicks off after 6 pm and features newly minted MVP winner Peyton Manning against the top defense in the league and the best corner in Richard Sherman.
The Seahawks and the Broncos come into the game as the top ranked defense and offense in the league and this is the first time that matchup has happened in the championship since back in the 90s when the Giants defeated the Buffalo Bills with the best defensive unit. The Seahawks have the best ranked red zone offense in the NFL and naturally the Broncos have the number one ranked red zone unit and that comes after Manning passed for 55 touchdowns this season and over 5,400 passing yards, which won him an MVP award on Saturday night. Wilson is in the Super Bowl in just his second season in the NFL and he can become the fourth player to win in his first two years and this is a matchup of a young star and a veteran that should end up in the Hall of Fame.
The weather is looking like it will be mild and not frigid at all and snow is not in the forecast and that is great for the NFL and for fans, as Peyton Manning and Wilson should be able to play their style and while the wind could be a factor, the weather doesn't seem like it will be a mess like some people predicted. Manning has 30 touchdowns and 23 interceptions in games that he has played outdoors in the playoffs according to ESPN.com when the weather is below 40, but the game is expected to be warmer than that at least at the start and that could give the Broncos a chance to get things started the right way.
Richard Sherman comes in with momentum after putting his team in the Super Bowl and he can show off why some feel he is the best corner in the league. The Seahawks defeated the San Francisco 49ers at home to make it into the championship, while the Broncos took down the New England Patriots and now both number one seeds are into the Super Bowl against each other. The teams are both 13-3 on the season and Marshawn Lynch comes in after having a great year with 1,200 yards and the Seahawks had the fourth ranked rushing attack in yards per game and he could end up going beast mode on Sunday, as he has rushed for over 100 yards in all but two of the playoffs games he has participated in.
The game will likely be a close one with the way both teams play on offense and defense and Wilson will have the chance to show off why he has lost only one home game over the past two seasons, as he is quick on the run and excellent while rolling out of the pocket.
