EAST RUTHERFORD, N. Jeremy Maclin Authentic Jersey .J. -- All those records, all for naught. Peyton Manning couldnt cap the greatest season any NFL quarterback ever had or secure his legacy as the best QB in history because his Denver Broncos came down with a case of the yips Sunday night. They lost to Seattle in the Super Bowl 43-8 by falling behind right from the start and never recovering. The bumbling Broncos trailed before Manning ever got his hands on the ball because Manny Ramirezs bad snap went for a safety 12 seconds into the game. "It was a crazy start," Manning said, "not the way you expect to start the game." It only got worse for the leagues most prolific point producers who scored 606 of em in the regular season, then dominated the AFC in the playoffs but mustered only Demaryius Thomas 14-yard touchdown catch on the final play of the third quarter at MetLife Stadium. "We couldnt get it to swing, man," left tackle Chris Clark said. "We tried, but they just played better than we did today. It didnt shift. We didnt play Broncos football today. When you got a good thing going, you want to finish it off and we didnt do that today." Dominated in every way, the Broncos (15-4) trudged through the tunnel trailing 22-0 at halftime, then watched Percy Harvin return the second-half kickoff for a TD. "Youve got to play well in this game to win it," said Broncos boss John Elway, who lost Super Bowls by scores of 39-20, 42-10 and 55-10 during his Hall of Fame playing career before winning his last two. Elway returned to rescue his beloved Broncos in 2011 after the franchise foundered and his biggest coup was luring Manning to Denver. Over his two seasons in Colorado, Manning engineered the greatest comeback in NFL history: recovering from neck fusion surgery that weakened his throwing arm to win his fifth MVP award this season when he set records by throwing for 55 TDs and 5,447 yards. But he couldnt match that with the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history after falling behind 36-0. "I will tell you this: its hard to get things turned around against a great defence like that," Elway said. "They are a great defence. So, thats why you cant afford to lose the momentum because to try to flip it on a great defence is always hard." This was easily Mannings worst day since trading the blue and white horseshoe of the Indianapolis Colts for the orange-mane mustang of Denver. He was sacked for the first time in the playoffs, threw two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown, lost a fumble and turned it over on downs. The bumbling Broncos finally found the end zone when Thomas made a leaping, twisting grab of Mannings 14-yard pass -- his 100th TD toss for Denver. But he needed a lot more of those to keep up with the efficient Russell Wilson, who didnt commit any turnovers and kept plays alive with his legs and pinpoint passes. "They outplayed us in every facet," tight end Jacob Tamme said. Thomas caught 13 passes for 118 yards but he also had a fumble as Denver was driving in the third quarter. Denver was missing five defensive starters who are on IR that might have made this a fairer fight -- Von Miller, Rahim Moore, Kevin Vickerson, Derek Wolfe and Chris Harris Jr. "We just didnt play like were capable of," Elway said. "Its disappointing. But we had a great year. And hopefully well learn from this. But it started tough and we just couldnt seem to get it going. "Its one of those nights. We had a tremendous year and well hopefully learn from this and were going to go at it again next year." Terrance Knighton, who helped hold Marshawn Lynch to 2.6 yards a carry, was already looking forward to that. "Itll be the 2014 season before you know it," he said. "Itll sting for a little bit tonight and maybe for a few more days but well have to bounce back." Riley Cooper Eagles Jersey . Filion, from Laval, Que., and Montreals Benfeito finished third with 326.10 points. Ruolin Chen and Hao Wang of China won gold with 360.66 points and Paola Espinosa and Alejandra Orozco of Mexico were second at 327. Cody Parkey Authentic Jersey . -- As expected, coach John Fox has officially ruled out Wes Welker for Denvers game against San Diego on Thursday night because of a concussion.In Mondays Five Thoughts, TSNs Jack Armstrong discusses the Raptors road game in Miami and takes a closer look at the final four teams remaining in the NCAA Tournament. 1. RAPTORS @ HEAT: Im flying to Miami to work Mondays Raptors-Heat game on TSN. Raps havent won in Florida since 2008. Theyve been quite competitive in all three3 games this season. There comes a point where you say Its time. Is that Monday tonight? The Bulls, Nets and Wizards have all beaten them this year. It would be a huge confidence boost from a Conference perspective heading to the second season in a few weeks. Its a chance to clinch winning road record for first time in franchise history. No better team to do it against than the mighty Heat. 2. AARON HARRISON (Kentucky): Makes four three-balls on Sunday vs. Michigan late and the game-winner was amazing. He has really matured down the stretch and I love his poise and obviously his shot making ability. A major talennt. Wilbert Montgomery Jersey. . 3. FRANK KAMINSKY (Wisconsin): He was 28 and 11 vs Arizona on Saturday. He makes three 3s and gets seven offensive boards. Dont be fooled. He might look a little awkward but hes very skilled and can hurt you inside and out. Tough cover. Hes been huge for them. Theyre not in the Final Four without him. 4. SCOTTIE WILBEKIN (Florida): Cool customer; always steadying the ship. He sets the tone on both sides of the ball for Billy Donovan. Changes speeds beautifully and is a very good shooter. Excellent instincts at the end of the shot clock. Big time competitor. 5. SHABAZ NAPIER (U CONN): Clutch, a big time handle and a terrific screen and roll guy. He has major range. He is the heart and soul of the Huskies and has the Kemba Walker vibe in his game. He finishes well at the rim. High energy performer and is a winner with next level ability. He will make an NBA GM look really smart. ' ' '
