Reports are starting to surface out of Las Vegas that Floyd Mayweather is a real jerk who makes me hella-jealous. According to numerous gambling websites, Mayweather laid $10.4 MILLION on the Broncos to win the Super Bowl and cover the two-point spread. It's important to note that these reports are coming from gambling information networks, not from Floyd himself, so maybe take them with a grain of salt.


There are other reports that Floyd put $3 million on the Broncos to cover (-.5) at HALFTIME.

The five-division world champion has been known to wager large sums on sporting events, having won $400k betting on Alabama in last year's national title game. There were also reports that he put $3 million on Michigan to cover against Alabama earlier that season.


That's a far cry from dropping seven zeros on a single game. Even for a guy who has made over $350 million in his career, betting $10 million on a single game like this, if true, is one of the most stupid and ballsy things I've ever heard of. Floyd can do what he wants with his money, but that won't stop me from rooting for the Seahawks out of pure unadulterated jealousy that one man has enough cash to do this.

Pretty fucking ridiculous.

$10 million ain't shit for Pretty Boy Floyd.

$10 million ain't shit for Pretty Boy Floyd.

It will be once he stops fighting and is a 50 something going bankrupt.

So many Dubcc poster stereotypes living in this thread lmao.

Maybe you and Brady can not watch the Superbowl together.

I have to watch just to see Richard Sherman pick off Manning in the 4th tied at 17 a piece.

pipe dream

AFC is weak as all hell this year so Seahawks have it unless freak injury to Russ, Marshawn, or Sherman. Im not convinced by Denvers easy rinkydink schedule this season or their two playoff wins against the Chargers who got in on a blown call and the depleted New England Patriots. Seahawks had to play the Saints who are damn near a mirror image of the Broncos just that they play in a stronger conference so their record isnt as inflated and the 49ers the second most well balanced team in the entire nfl.

I say if the weather is okay Denver wins 34-17


if the weather is bad (i.e. stormy, super freezing) then denver wins 17 to 13

LOL

You honestly think even in good weather broncos put up 34 on the best D in the league? Wow thats a bold statement considering they only scored 27 on chargers and 26 on a battered NE Defense and they only start scoring consistently in that game when Talib got injured...I think this is a bad matchup for Broncos and don't see them putting up more then 13 points to be honest.

Seattle wins 24-13

broncos scored 37 ppg, i'm picking them to play below their season average.


how's Seattle gonna guard Welker, Thomas, Thomas AND Decker?  if they do then Moreno and Ball will have huge games.

Can I trust Russell Wilson to make precise throws?  No.  Peyton?  Yes.


If this game was played in a dome it'd probably be 45-21 Broncos and Peyton would throw for as many yards as possible just to make a point that he's the best ever

Seriously you can interchange broncos with saints in this paragraph and every corresponding position player to one on the saints and its the same thing yet the saints played the hawks twice this year took Ls in both games. 2nd game when they were able to fully realize what they were up against they managed to keep it somewhat close but still lost. First game they got straight destroyed didnt even look like an nfl team. Of course in the first game all they had seen was tape on the hawks up until then and probably had no idea how good they were until the game came and they got rocked. Broncos in that exact same position right now.

Well I'm a Hawks fan but to be fair I'd still put the Broncos a notch above the Saints in terms of offensive weapons and the QB is obviously one of the greats. Still lmfao @ "it would be 45-21 in a dome".

Demaryus Thomas = Marques Colston
Julian Thomas = Jimmy Graham (these two are so similar w/ their former bball backgrounds its ridiculous)
Eric Decker = Lance Moore
Wes Welker = Darren Sproles

What makes the Broncos weapons seem better is the fact that they have a better qb whos smarter and taller with better vision. But even with that said Drew Brees is still a future hof super bowl mvp qb so the dropoff between him n Peyton to me aint enough to justify people thinkin this is gonna be some cake walk for Peyton when Drew had one of the worst games Ive ever seen from him in his life against this same defense.
