2. You know that the odds are against us.

So far, 16 teams have made it to back to back Super Bowls, but both teams making it back has happened only once before. (Super Bowls 27 and 28 with Dallas beating Buffalo both times.)

I am in agreement with you about the Broncos. They were imo, by far the best in the AFC West and that conference, (well except for Oakland), was mighty impressive. If Manning stays healthy next year (and I see no real reason he won't-he hardly ever got sacked last season), I look to see him lead the Broncos back to the Super Bowl.
