AND THEN THERE WERE TWO; WILL MANNING PREVAIL OR WILL WILSON SHOW WHY HE'S A GREAT PICK



    Well Well Well, a mid-west to west coast super bowl. Myself picked the Patriots vs. Seahawks and I guess Manning proved me false on my selections for the super bowl by dismantling the Patriots on both sides of the ball. The 49ers couldn't hold on to their grip to ride the train to the super bowl two years in a row by a big mistake by Kaepernick on the 49ers 4th quarter drive. I have been a Wilson fan since he came into the league and how well he dominated the preseason and through the regular season. What I see from the perspective of a former football player analyzing this game is it looks like a classic David vs. Goliath match up. ON one side you have the great Peyton Manning as Goliath vs. Russel Wilson as David across field from him. The question that will be answered on February 2nd will be does this real life David vs. Goliath battle hold true to the story. 
   February 2nd will host the greatest one day event on a out door stage in New Jersey. I know the elements will play a major factor in this game but the greater question to me is will this take away from the game because it's not in a hotter climate where people can enjoy the atmosphere how they really want. Also will the elements make this a slow pace run game and if so which team will benefit more. I know with the magnitude of this event all fans want to see a high passing and scoring game and if that doesn't happen will that leave a sour taste in the mouths of football fans for future outdoor cold weather games. One last thing to ponder about is if Manning and the Broncos win the super bowl will this be his ride into the sunset?
