JERSEY CITY — Defense wins championships, right? Guess we’ll find out Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
On one sideline you’ll have the best offense in the league in the Broncos, who finished No. 1 in points and yards. On the other sideline will stand the Seahawks, who finished No. 1 in points against and yards allowed.
“For the fans, I think it’s an incredible matchup,” Denver coach John Fox said Sunday night shortly after landing in New Jersey. “I’m not sure exactly when that’s last happened, but I know it hasn’t been that recent.”
Twenty-three years, in fact, since the No. 1 offense faced the No. 1 defense in the Super Bowl — Bill Belichick’s Giants defense defeated the high-flying Bills at the end of the 1990 season.
