I cannot root for the Seahawks. I just do not like them.

Right now, someone from Denver is furiously searching for the stadium fuse box to try and change this momentum.
Super Bore. There's been lot of games like that over the years - luckily several of them 49ers Super Blowouts. I think it's another reason both NFL and NBA need to re-seed at end of the season so you actually ALWAYS get two best teams in championship game. Forget this AFC vs NFC do or die potential train wreck every time. Heck maybe it would have been Niners vs. Seahawks in Super Bowl this year instead of two western state teams anyway. Sort of like what NCAA basketball does with March Madness leading Final Four or what college football is finally doing starting next season with its Division I playoffs leading to no argument national champion.
I don't know, man, Denver played a cake schedule. Niners battled through some adversity and had some heartbreaks like the loss to New Orleans that really swung the home field advantage in the NFC. I don't have advanced stats to back things up, but the NFC and the NFC West in particular were just on another spectrum of eliteness that no team in the AFC could touch. The Super Bowl was really played two weeks ago and had the 49ers got home field advantage, they may be hoisting that Lombardi right now. F Seattle.I think the Super Bowl has been more competitive the last couple decades because you're not getting the top two seeds in there. Or perhaps because there just aren't as many really dominant teams. This year the Broncos and the Seahawks were the two best teams, so I don't think a re-seed would have helped any. (You might argue that by the end the 49ers were playing better than Denver, but based on anything objective like records, stats, or advanced stats the Seahawks and Broncos would have been 1-2.)
