• Richard Sherman and the Seahawks—a "team"—vs. Tom Brady and his merry bunch of nut-huggers.
  
• Old dynasty's possibly witnessing the rise of a new one.

Any more ideas?

There are alot and I love both of those. There's also PC vs. the Pats who fired him and hired Old Deflated Balls Belicheck as his replacemnt.

Yup yup.

Dig it, buh-rutha.

And here's another sidebar to it:

• Patsy cornerback Brandon Browner's return to a second-straight Super Bowl — this time, lining up against the team whom he helped to get his first Ring.

Yes, Mr. Browner has clearly joined The Dark Side.

You Mad Bro?..... I'm sure plenty will be made of the Sherman Brady rematch.

The "You Mad, Bowl"

Heard that one somewhere.

Otherwise, this is straight up Good (us) vs. Evil (them). (Not sure why I needed to spell it out like that, but I did:)

Also like the idea of Seahawk rebels vs Patriot stormtroopers, with Belichick camped out on the observation deck of his team's Deathstar:)

The X's and O's brilliance of Bellichick vs the physicality of the Seahawks....

( don't buy that personally, but it has been said on NFL Network, something about Seattle doesn't do a lot of intricate stuff, they just line up, say this is what we are doing, now beat us.. And the Pats having to basically "trick" teams with gimmicks and formations, lots of movement etc)

Oh, and the "Death Backer" against the "gronk" seems to be getting a lot of play ( though IMHO that is going to be more of KJ vs Gronk, but what do I know?? )

Pete and Belichick are the only two head coaches Robert Kraft has hired.

The Seahawks are the first team to play in two consecutive Super Bowls since the...

Russell Wilson is 10-0 against SB winning quarterbacks, including 1-0 vs. Brady.

New England Cornerback Brandon Browner played for the Seahawks until he was released following a PED suspension.

Revis and Sherman are widely considered to be the best two cornerbacks in the league.

No no, it's the "You Mad Browl!"

I think Wilson vs Brady and Carroll vs Billacheat are absolutely compelling. Honestly its a match up that has me drooling, way more exciting story lines than last year IMO. Speaking of which I watched the U mad Bro? game last night. Pats had a 3 year younger Brady. Logan Mankins,Wes Welker, Aaron Hernandez, Gronk , Ridley and so on. And the Hawks held them to 6 second half points and RW cut their heart out surgically.And those were the baby Hawks.

I think we are going to punish them severely and they know it. I think they are scared shitless.

I re-watched that game last night too. A lot of personnel changes since then on both sides of the ball. I think we have improved. I am not sure they have. Having said that, I think it will be a close game.

We certainly seem deeper at a lot of positions, and even with a spotty pass rush, I prefer this D-line to that one. I actually LIKED that receiver core, and felt like with Rice, Baldwin, Tate they had a much more solid group ( too bad Sydney couldn't stay healthy, I could care less what some think about him, when he was on the field he was productive)...

That said, IF anyone in the media and Patriots land believe that team and the Pats are remotely similar 4 years later, they are in for a long afternoon of being confused.

How about this?

Might have been already mentioned, but the two top secondaries, featuring the games top 2 corner backs, that's a fascinating story line IMO.
Seattle's secondary is the best, arguing otherwise is an exercise in futility, but the Pats secondary is awesome in it's own right.
Both teams should be feeling VERY good about their chances against the other teams receiving corps.

Which is why this game will likely come down to the same thing I always say, can you stop our run game? If answer is no, you lose.

Position Breakdown
Secondary-Seattle. We will abuse Browner. Revis is very good Russ better be careful. Brady will have some problems in the roaster.
Linebackers-Seattle best in the league
D line-NE. Wilfork tips it to NE, we dont have the interior presence.
O line NE- But they have some injuries so really close IMO
Receivers NE=Pats much bigger numbers but Hawk's guys are equally capable of making plays
TE-NE but closer than some think. Willson might have bigger stats Sunday
RBs-Seattle, not close
QB-Seattle- Brady has a big arm and can slide around but hes a lot like Manning. A big giraffe that becomes Mr ordinary(or worse) if hes getting pushed off his spot. Wilson can rescue a play that is DOA like the 2 point conversion.He does something like that almost every game.He is indoors on a fast rug where he put up career best numbers against a better defense a mere month ago.I think Mr Wilson is made for a day like Sunday to become the real Captain America.
Special teams-Even. Seattle has the edge in the kicking game but NE is better in the return game.
Coaches-Seattle. Biilacheat, nuff said. They are 6-6 in the postseason since Spy gate broke including their record offense firing blanks vs the Giants in that SB.
Carroll 7-2 with Seattle and huge in the biggest games. Hes got wood for this game.Its the biggest storyline of all IMO.
Seattle has the edge at more of the key positions and they have the mojo. I think they ready to go hurt NE.
