Gotta love the Seahawks' drives.

Noice!

Why do some of them seem to have a tea towel hanging from their waist? Is they waiters?

I haven't got a clue but I liked that throw. Not so keen on his sideways passes though.

Did you never play touch rugby at school? Same thing: get the towel and that counts as a tackle

Hmm. Anyone else have distorted audio?

Do I need to get up and kick my TV or is the sound goosed?
RM.
Edit: Ah.

Yeah, they mentioned technical faults earlier.

D fence

Wouldn't have happened on BBC.

Peyton's having a Q1 to forget.

Interesting stat.

Denver have been in four Superbowls (aside from this one). Won two, lost two.

Both wins were in their (white) away strip, both losses in the home orange.

Some of them have hand muffs too. What's that all about? Cold hands, chalk bag, somewhere to hide the jelly babies?

Hoping Denver gets it together to some extent otherwise won't be waiting up for the second half

Google "lingerie bowl" for more info

This is a bit more like it

It's all over now.

I'm destined to spend my life watching Denver lose Superbowls.

Well....this could get embarrassing for the Broncos.

Is there a slim possibility you are a Bruno Mars fan? Silver lining and all that...

22 points, 9 scored by the Defense.

Seahawks completely upsetting the odds. Not pretty but a compelling game! Will the Broncos recover in the 2nd half - never seen Manning perform so poorly.

Oh come on. Really?!

Will the Broncos recover in the 2nd half

I wouldn't like to be in that locker room, that's for certain.

never seen Manning perform so poorly.

Seems the only thing he's thrown well is the game.

i can't believe this!

i picked the broncos for the win, almost easily, seeing that safety cock up at the start, idiots.

what a humiliating first quarter! 2nd quarter not much better.

i have friends i'm talking to via FB in Denver right now, they can't believe it either!

Great stuff by the Seahawks. Swarming, aggressive defence backed up with clever misdirection plays with the ball.

Shit or bust for the Broncos now, forcing it against this defence is unlikely to end well.

should be an entertaining 2nd half

not so sure about the 1/2 time show though

oh and
salt and vinegar chipsticks
dark chocolate choc ice
lightly fruited cake
squash

Is this the halftime show or the riot police?

trying to keep Bruno off the field?

Time for a 22minute snooze.

I always wondered what a young James Brown doing a Sting impersonation would be like.

You could read about the stadium. Some interesting stuff I didn't know.

Wait, RHCP are guesting to Bruno Mars?

Have they got Metallica subbing to Jedward next year?

I preferred last years show...

What position did she play?

Looks like game over, unless the 2nd half is going to be something very, very special.
RM.

Eat clock, genius

Edit . its important that no one eats clock

nail in coffin

Well, that went well.

That's that.*

*Even more so.

Ooft

Was expecting a really close game - this is becoming embarrassing. Hope the Broncos have a bit of a comeback to make this interesting.

Might be time to start looking at some other records that might be broken...

Indeed. Hoping for a nail biter; this is getting ridiculous

Oh dear

Seahawks just want it more, perfect game from them so far

All over now - appalling defence by the Broncos.

Bedtime!

Everyone gone to bed?

Well, they didn't beat their own record, but Denver are now positions 1 and 2 in the 'biggest point difference' stakes.

The didn't have a good game, but Seattle's Defense were at the top of their game. When Manning could complete passes, he was forced so far back that he was getting two yards out of a 20-yard pass.

i've watched every superbowl since 82, this wasn't the best, but not the worst by a long way!

my sis in law who lives in Seattle will now be unbearable

Great defence - would have preferred to see a more competitive game though! Well done to the Seahawks!

Omaha just called Peyton Manning and asked him to please stop mentioning them

I quite liked the Bruno Mars performance if only because he's a nice enough entertainer kid who is open about his James Brown and early (we hope) Michael Jackson influences/tributes/covers.

I fell asleep mid second half grrrrrr!

Awesome win for the Seahawks.

I feel for Manning, his season efforts deserved the win.

Seahawks, cos a seahawk is infinitely cooler than a horse. They'll still lose though

Great result, but my sports prediction skills obviously need a bit of work 🙂

Dammit, went to bed early to find out a linebacker got MVP costing me £60 on SportingIndex.

That was a real throwback to the 80s.

I wouldn't beat yourself up. I also predicted a Broncos win. Didn't most people - once they saw the pitch wasn't frozen or covered in snow? I wanted the Seahawks to win though and was thinking they might at the end of the first quarter. I drifted off sometime between the middle of the second, missed half time 🙁 and woke up again a few minutes into the third. Fell back asleep by the end of the third but still couldn't believe the extent of the Broncos' capitulation. 😯

Well done Seahawks. Another name on the trophy. 19 different winners in 48 championships. It'll probably be a different (but possibly not a new one) one next year too. It's one of the great things about the NFL. It throws up season after season of great games. It's a pity the SB was a bit one-sided, but nobody will be complaining in Seattle this morning.

Disappointment of the season for me was Pittsburgh's terrible start and injury list. And Cincinnati's early exit from the play-offs. Can't wait till next season already.

Thought it be a really close game with the Broncos just getting it. Seattle were all over them offense and defense, nothing went right for Bronco's from play one and Manning was getting no protection from his line.

Mate predicted the Superbowl teams at the start of the season with Seattle winning shame he didn't put any money on it.

Didn't watch it, too late for me, but thrilled that the 'Hawks got it at last! I've been sort of following American Football since it first started on C4 in the 80's, and settled on the Seahawks as 'my' team not long after, even getting a custom players shirt made up. A bit tight fitting on me now...
Great result after all this time. 😀
