Sponsored Post: Brady vs. Manning Again – Hard to Ask for More

Can we ask for more?

Probably not, taking in consideration that these two teams are by far the best teams in the AFC. On top of that, add the fact that you’re watching one of the greatest rivalries in the recent history of the NFL. The last time these guys faced off, Peyton Manning was able to win the game with an epic comeback, pointing straight to his only Super Bowl ring.

And you have a more mature Brady, looking to equal Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana as the only quarterbacks to capture four rings. This season, Brady and Belichick found the way to fix an offense full of injured players, and changing key pieces for several reasons, several times.

Isn’t this a great opportunity to put some extra spice to the game? I like to think it is, because this is going to be an epic game, as the website Sportsbettingdime.com says.

Last November, was Brady’s opportunity to make his comeback against Manning, recovering from a 24 points difference. But this time it’s at Denver, where the weather and the local fans will do everything to keep a chance to go to a Super Bowl again.

With both quarterbacks under even more of a microscope during the postseason, both Manning and Brady are certainly feeling the pressure–though neither is a stranger to that.

I don´t see a very open game–more rush than pass, no stupid mistakes in the final minutes, and, especially, no big flags on 3rd downs.

So, I visualize the game staying under the 55 points, floating around 45 (in case you’re into over/under wagers) using the rushing power to consume the clock, waiting for a chance to make an important 3rd down conversion and allowing the defense time to rest.

I like Patriots plus the five points. Even if they can’t pull out the win, I’m expecting a late field goal situation deciding the game, no more than that. Let’s see if this prediction can be converted into a successful parlay!
