No one has given a legit reason why the Broncos would beat us

[cardiackat88.]

They did articles on why both teams would win, here's there's:

Don't get cocky.  Any Given Sunday

[Fox007]

Any given sunday is as legit and real a reason as any....some of our fans seem to be turning into what they said they disliked about other franchises fans.

They have a chance to stifle our offense and make this a low scoring game where anything can happen.

Things will have to go their way.  They will need +2 on turnovers and/or get some non-offensive TDs. 

Maybe they figured it all out in two weeks on offense, but I just dont see them being able to consistently move the ball the length of the field against our defense.  If we dont give them great starting field position they will be lucky to get to 14 points.

So basically, if we take care of our business we will win. But If we give them some easy points it could go either way

Everyone picking the Broncos is going off "feeling", or just hate for the panthers.

Makes me think of the lyrics to the old Dusty Springfield song - 'Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin' - except leave out the 'thinkin' part.

The Broncos can't win unless we make mistakes. We have the answer for their D with our running game. Just have to execute our game plan.

Their top defense may be able to slow our offense down....but our top defense will likely "shut" them down.

Denver fans are banking HARD on the defense angle, specifically pass rush. If they execute, it will make it a much more competitive game. If they don't...

I just can't shake the feeling that this game ends up like the Dallas game.  Offense isn't great, but moves the ball enough to keep the defense fresh.  Defense balls out, forces 2-3 turnovers, consistent pressure on Manning.  I think we win 30-13.  TD gets a sack, pick 6 and a forced fumble on his way to SB MVP.  30-13

I'd take that all day, every day.

I had this feeling as well, just a 27-21 game. The only way I see different is if we do to Denver what we did yo AZ. We were supposed to be beat offensively and defensively in that game. Anything is possible but Carolina D beats Denver offense. Real simple. 

[PantherPride5]

We are the more talented team, we should win. Although being Peyton's last game that really worries me. Also the fact that about 80% of people think we win scares me too.

I'm not factoring in the postseason. The Broncos D allowed 3.3 yards per carry during the regular season - that was the best, #1 rush defense in the NFL this year. 

What's your source? Both NFL.com and ESPN have Seattle as the #1 rushing defense.

When your (obviously injured) QB is throwing pick-sixes, did your defense really give up those points? 

You're doing a piss poor job at trolling.

If that happened against the Browns, what will Carolinas d do?

MCKNOWN started that game, had two interceptions, and still almost won.

My source is ESPN.

Denver's D allowed 1337 yards on 408 carries for 3.28 yards per rush. 
Seattle's D allowed 1304 yards on 362 carries for 3.60 yards per rush. 

Denver has the #1 rush defense in the NFL this year - Seattle was #4. 

Will you be back tomorrow night after the game?
