Shame they don't give rings for most completions in the SuperBowl... Poor Peyton.
aww he got a record at least, he can take something away from this...
Peyton looks shattered.
Retirement announcement in the near future?

Being a part of that Bronco team right now must be thoroughly depressing.
I was thinking that earlier, it surely can't be too far off now.

This Seahawks team is pretty young as well isn't it?
Yeah, but they are going to have cap issues soon.
Sherman and Wilson?
Has to give it 1 more season. He can't go out with this embarrassing effort, surely?
Sherman, Wilson, Thomas. Those are the big three plus the big contract that was given to Harvin (and Lynch, Sidney Rice, Zach Miller).
That Broncos bench looks just like what I imagine much of us United fans look like right now 
I guess the thing is these players know they've have a very unique opportunity to build something very special but in American sports such logic doesn't seem to apply and I can understand why.
Well I haven't looked at it in depth but you've got the group of underpaid guys on their rookie deals (Wilson, Sherman, Thomas, Tate, Maxwell, Baldwin, Kearse) and the expensive veterans (Avril, Harvin, Lynch, Okung, Rice, Miller). The math just doesn't work to keep them all.
First 'mistake' Seattle have made all game.
God look at those Broncos players, sports a tough living at times.
I sometimes wonder how much of their pay cheques they would give up to not feel like that, it must be awful.

Eli 
Manning fumble
And Bennett who's had a really good year.
Fumble on 4th, why not.... JesusRelentless.
Peyton out-Elied Eli in Eli's stadium. An elite effort.
Backup QB out, aka, the punt in the stones.
A lot said about the defence but the Seattle offence has played their part, consistently getting 3rd downs and no turnovers as of yet.
I actually feel sorry for Peyton, that's not natural. Don't feel right, man.
Complete domination. Well done Seattle.
feck you Peyton
feck you Peyton
feck YEAH!
So happy right now!
Probably a crap game for anyone not a Seattle fan or who hates the Broncos mind.

@ESPN_Numbers: Peyton Manning now has the most career playoff losses for a QB (12).
Jesus.... they don't look too excited.
Someone needs to tell Seattle they've just won the superbowl
Game over! What a game. Dominant in all three phases.
This was my prediction before the game. They scored 4 more points that I expected and Seattle put up 13 more points than I expected. Great win to finish off the season.
(The real Superbowl was in the NFC Championship). Go Hawks!!!!

Domination of the highest order.
Terrible SuperBowl, big let down considering all the hype but a beautiful watch and well worth seeing Peyton get embarrassed like that.
Broncos and their much vaunted offense were hopeless. Seattle were exceptional, that D is something special and even the offense turned it on tonight, particularly on 3rd downs. Brilliant performance, the complete performance.
Manning loses again in the big game. He's had a tremendous season, but everyone who called him the greatest ever QB may want to reconsider their opinion.

Yep, when a 2nd year 25 year old QB can keep it together and you as a veteran SB winner can't, then I'm not sure you can be considered the greatest ever.
This loss was not on Manning at all. No team or star QB would have had a chance against Seattle tonight.
The whole team weren't good enough but Manning really wasn't at the races today whatsoever, not blaming him solely for the loss however. I know it's a ridiculous defence but it's still not good enough from an offence like that.
Quite a disappointing Super Bowl - not sure whether I'm saying that as an temporary Broncos fan for the night or not.
Such a one-sided affair.

The tradition of giving the trophy to the owner first is annoying. Give it to the players who were exceptional.
