Super Bowl XLVIII: Seattle Seahawks vs Denver Broncos

[Bomberooski]

Also Seattle's front 7 was absolutely amazing.

This could be a dynasty in the making.

They are man. Really hope they can keep them together somehow.

Dynasties are over in the NFL. You need Marshawn to be Marshawn for the next three years and that simply isn't happening, you need Percy Harvin to be what he was tonight for the next three years, that's not happening. You need 31 NFL teams not adjusting to a good, but not great, Super Bowl champ ... that's not happening. Congrats for a great game, Seattle, but one game doesn't make you a great team or a dynasty. You feel like Tampa Bay, a fine one-year Super Bowl champ, but hardly a guaranteed dynasty.

Pats have been to 5
Steelers 3
Giants 2
Ravens 2

Talent levels aren't close to the real dynasties of before but getting to multiple SBs is pretty common lately.

How is that common? Pats, ok. The rest? Not that common.

the Ravens don't apply in that case though. 12 years apart

LOL well

Denver did stop the run...not much else though

What ?
How are they NOT common ?
It's actually just as uncommon that teams don't revisit.
I forgot the Colts 2 visits as well.
Really a safe prediction the Seahawks will be in the SB again soon. Especially when you consider how young they are.

Welp.. We got crushed by a much, much better team. Congrats to the Seahawks, you are no longer the AFC West doormats of my youth.

I'm going to say something to a couple Seattle loyalists who I've come to know in this little community over the years...

West... I have absolutely no doubt that some part of this was your doing. Party hard tonight brother, I heard there are no hangovers in heaven.

Taters... Our interactions have been equal parts brief and meaningless. Exactly as every relationship on the internet between men should be.

Bomber... You're a shameless shill but you keep it regional. I can honestly say that I've enjoyed every interaction I've had with you on the interwebz.

Hass... The list of people that I have gotten into a legitimate e-argument over football with is long and full of burned bridges. I still remember you as a fierce rival from our MM days whose snide quips about Denver foibles followed me here. I don't know much about you, but I'd like to think we have a lot in common, and I hope you're able to enjoy let memories or Rick Mirer and Super Bowl XL wash away forever so you can enjoy this moment fully.

The Patriots won 3 in a 4 year span a decade ago and haven't won since. That's borderline.
The Steelers had theirs 3 years apart.
The Giants were 5 years apart.
The Ravens were 12 so that's not even remotely close.

They stopped Marshawn but not Harvin. 2 carries and he got 45 yards.

No surprise the point sails over your head.
It's COMMON PLACE for teams to get back to the superbowl. No reason to think Seattle can't get back there. Teams less talented and in lesser positions have returned quickly.

I agree with all your examples except Ravens because I thought dynasty was the key word. They've proven they are a patient organization which you need to be to win long term like the Pitt's n NEs of the world but Dynasty needs a couple trophies in a short time period at least

I'm not saying they won't get back. I'm saying it'll probably be awhile, they won't be a major dynasty like we saw in the last century, and the team will likely look a lot different when they do get back.

We Christians can tell you that this was a part of God's Plan and His revenge on the Broncos for trading away Tim Tebow. Many people have persecuted Tim Tibow for loving Christ and for being a virgin. This lead to Tebow being blacklisted from the NFL. Tebow taught the Broncos about Christ. The Broncos did not know of Christ before his arrival. Once the Broncos embraced Christ and His teachings, the wins and miracles came. Then John Elway and Peyton Manning conspired to have Tebow BLACKLISTED from the NFL because they were jealous of him. They both thought that they were better quarterbacks than Tebow. Manning came in to Denver and told the team to not listen to Christ's teachings anymore. Elway and Manning said that it was ok to ejaculate inside of a woman and that being a virgin was stupid. As a result, the players were lost, and did not accept Christ's blood sacrifice on the cross on their behalf anymore as they did under Tebow's guidance. God looked at the situation in Denver and was sickened on how the Broncos hated Christ all of the sudden. He looked at Russell Wilson and saw a true Christian. This is why God made the Broncos lose in such an embarrassing manner to the Seahawks. All Christians know of these truths.

This gave me Syphilis.

I'll agree to that. 81 /84 niners were very different teams. Had the Pats won those 2 against the Giants they'd be a 5 SB dynasty not a 3 then 2. Ravens Lewis keeps that tie so thats why I mentioned them ,but you're right.

niners count as a dynasty..same offensive core mostly
