The Panthers need to get some sort of score on this play (stating the obvious )

Newton throws it hard ... and in these sort of games, catching those hard throws can be more difficult (as we've seen)

Panthers just can't get their game going ... but that's because the Broncos have been all over them. A TD for the Broncos here could be telling

Agreed but any lesser QB might have been destroyed by now

Newton keeping the Panthers in the game ... however, Denver should be further ahead.

Peyton gets picked off ... Denver should have been leading by 2 scores. Costly.

Excellent return from Norwood - the Broncos are right in this. 13-7

Talib does 2 silly acts ... Newton and his offense take advantage. Game on!

That Denver D is on ... and Peyton managing things well. Not sure too many were predicting a 10-0 early lead to Denver

Excellent drive by the Broncos but only 3 points ... Peyton looked quite good.

Both games are on next Sunday night 'GV' with the Arsenal vs Leicester game on at the fan-friendly time of 11pm (at least for night owls like me!) First of all, Arsenal need to get past Bournemouth tonight - and that's not a sure thing either. Watched Leicester and Man City last night and 'The Foxes' are not a team that wants or needs a lot of possession ... they are well coached and well drilled and their counter-attacking style is really dangerous. There's no reason they can't go on and win the whole thing (and wouldn't that be great for the EPL?) They're almost assured of a champions league spot which is a colossal achievement in itself (unless they have a meltdown - which I can't see happening) If Chelsea win tonight Leicester will be 13 points clear of 5th spot.

A fabulous talent ... lead singer and lead guitar (many of their songs had great and unique riffs) Rolling Stone magazine has him high up in their all-time categories in both areas. The bit I find quite intriguing is that the band emanated from San Francisco. But then again, a lot of music has a lot of it's influence from the South - esp jazz, rock, country music, blues etc. Not all of course, but a large chunk. Here's one of my favourites from the band ... and I really like this particular youtube clip as well ...

Huge game coming up tonight (11.45pm) ... Man City vs Leicester. I reckon we'll see a number of goals as both teams should be going all out for the win ... 3-2 either way (how's that for sitting on the fence!) Those without cable can listen to the game here

Swamp rock? I suppose CCR's music falls into that genre ... read recently that the band was from San Francisco. As what can happen, there was a major falling out within the band that still remains ... a brilliant group, all the same. And thanks to JJ for the tip on how to post up youtube clips ... ... On the youtube page there's a share button and an embed option. If you copy that code, then in the demonland post click source and paste it. After clicking source again it should appear.

I've got work but have 5 - 6 hours off in-between a couple of decent shifts (I'm hoping to watch all the game live) I'll probably post here if I can ... I'd like to see Peyton get another win despite picking the Panthers ... keep imagining the first possession ending up in a pick 6 - wouldn't that liven things up?

Think it's 10.30 Cards and good luck. I've picked the Panthers but can also make a sound case for Denver winning (esp if your D reigns supreme)

I can't go past the Panthers either. Carolina 27 Broncos 19

The pro bowl still got a 5+ rating which will probably mean they'll keep it going (at least for the next couple of years) I took no interest in it at all and can offer no real way of finding a way to resurrect interest in it ... the real problem is that it's now been almost completely reduced to touch football.

Here's that Four Corners exposé on corruption in sport (shown earlier tonight) Tennis was a large focus of the investigative report with the sport having alleged links to illegal betting agencies throughout Asia. Well worth a look.

It does seem quite apparent that San Diego and Oakland will both lose their teams though (sooner rather than later) ... I often hear Jacksonville's name being brought up too. And don't they want a team in London eventually?

And the Raiders could end up in Vegas ... the "Vegas Raiders?" There doesn't seem to be a lot of sympathy for the fans who lose their team ... in fact, the fans often get blamed. The money in the NFL is just ridiculous though - these decisions to move cities often involve vast sums of potential future monies. However, it does add a lot of interest to have a major sporting team operating out of Las Vegas ... not sure if that slogan "Whatever happens here, stays here" will necessarily apply though.

Roger fought hard but the joker too good Hoping Murray gets through as I reckon that match-up with Novak could produce a classic final.

The EPL title seems to be down to a race in 4 if we discount Man Utd and those behind the red devils (although, Champions League spots can't be ruled out for those outside of the current top 4) So, here are the next 6 games for those in contention ... Leicester (47) ... vs Liverpool, @ Man City, @ Arsenal, vs Norwich, vs West Brom, vs Watford Man City (44) ... @ Sunderland, vs Leicester, vs Tottenham, @ Newcastle, @ Liverpool, vs Aston Villa Arsenal (44) ... vs Southampton, @ Bournemouth, vs Leicester, @ Man Utd, vs Swansea, @ Tottenham Tottenham (42) ... @ Norwich, vs Watford, @ Man City, vs Swansea, @ West Ham, vs Arsenal Obviously all the games are vital but dropped points in the games I've highlighted can have the double effect of lending a helping hand to the teams that any of the 4 teams might give points to. Leicester in particular have a tough 3 games coming up ... I reckon they'd take 5 points out of a possible 9 points (from those next 3 games) as being a decent enough result. Also, Leicester don't have any FA Cup fixtures or Champions league fixtures to concern themselves with (Man City & Arsenal are still alive in both those competitions whilst Spurs are still alive in the FA Cup) Here's the current table

I tend to agree JV7 but I honestly thought the Pats were going to win today as well ... and then go on and win another SB. We all picked New England here on this thread but the Broncos did play a good game - one could argue that Denver had much tougher opposition today too. 7 turnovers by the Cards today said it all - they never looked like it ... I reckon it's the Panther's time but an unexpected setback early in the SB could throw the game wide open - the game could be close throughout.
