The biggest game of the year is right around the corner and with that in mind what are the key factors for each team to have a chance to hold up the sacred Super Bowl Championship Trophy?

Well, you have the highest scoring offense playing against the highest scoring defense. The Denver Broncos have broken numerous records for their outstanding offense this season, while the Seattle Seahawks have dominated opposing teams with their strong defense, known as the “Legion of Boom”.

Some may say that The Seahawks lack experience with big games which is accurate since not one player nor coach have been to a stage as large as the Super Bowl before, while numerous Bronco’s players and coaches have won the big game, became MVP’s, and traveled to the NFL’s biggest stage multiple times.

The weather will be a large factor in the game, snow is expected to fall and the weather will be in the mid 20’s. It is the first time that a game of this magnitude will take place in these types of weather conditions. It will be held at Met Life Stadium which is home to New York Giants and New York Jets in East Rutherford New Jersey.

Some popular players will also be staring in this game. Peyton Manning the Quarterback for the Denver Broncos, while some argue that he is the greatest quarterback of all time there is talk that a loss in this game will diminish his legacy. Richard Sherman, the self-proclaimed best Cornerback in the league that was a fifth round draft pick by the Seattle Seahawks has spoken out and said that he is “positive the right team will win”.

The Broncos number one offense has been terrific this season. Peyton Manning has throw over 51 touchdowns, with remarkable targets. Wide receivers Eric Decker, Demaryius Thomas, and former New England Patriot Wes Welker have helped Denver have high scoring games. Running back Knowshon Moreno will be a crucial part of this game, with weather conditions being what they are means that Manning will have to rely on the run game compared to the passing game. Moreno has been a tough runner this season with 10 touchdowns and over 1,000 rushing yards.

Under the reign of head coach Pete Carroll and Defensive Coordinator Dan Quinn the Seattle Seahawks defense and remarkable secondary have been sensational. With key players like Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, Kam Chancellor, and Bobby Wagner this defense is tough and takes pride in the statistics that they have only allowed 14 total points and 300 yards to opposing teams per game

Whether a team with the top ranked Defense or Offense wins this game it sure will be a great one. Both teams have worked relentlessly for the moment to be handed the Lombardi Trophy and the chance to say that they are Superbowl 48 Champions.
