<\/p>\n

1st<\/sup> Quarter<\/b><\/p>\n

Kick off and the Denver Broncos are stopped just shy of the 15 yard line. Miscommunication between Payton Manning and his team, a Safety occurs and the Seattle Seahawks are in the lead 2-0 early into the game. Denver punts the ball and on Seattle\u2019s first drive they score a 31 field goal, putting them in the lead 5-0. Denver\u2019s turn at the offense but couldn\u2019t make it past the 40 yard line, forced to punt the ball. The Seattle Seahawks came close to scoring a touchdown, but close isn\u2019t good enough, except for another field goal. Seattle extended their lead to 8-0. It was now Denver\u2019s chance to redeem themselves; however, Payton Manning threw his first interception of the night, leaving them scoreless in the 1st<\/sup> quarter.<\/p>\n

2nd<\/sup> Quarter<\/b><\/p>\n

The Seattle Seahawks start off the second quarter with a Rushing touchdown, extending their lead to 15-0 at the start of the 2nd<\/sup> quarter. Denver, looking for a chance to score in this game, was pouring everything they had to be on the scoreboard. The Seattle defense secured Payton Manning tightly in the pocket, forcing him to throw the ball instead of being sacked and losing yards for his team. The football landing in the hands of a Seahawk and Malcolm Smith ran all the way to score the team\u2019s second touchdown, extending the Seattle Seahawks lead to 22-0. The Denver Broncos, on a 4th<\/sup> down and 2, weren\u2019t able to score by the end of the second quarter, leaving the game 22-0 with the Seahawks in the lead.<\/p>\n

Halftime Show: Bruno Mars and Red Hot Chili Peppers<\/b><\/p>\n

Lights, singing, action! The beginning to \u201cBillionaire\u201d was serenaded to the crowd by a group of children up until the main artist of the night came on \u2013 Bruno Mars. A rock-n-roll style drum solo pumped up the crowd as Bruno Mars was getting his vocal ready to sing his number 1 hits. Starting off signing \u201cLocked Out Of Heaven\u201d, he sang his way through \u201cTreasure\u201d and \u201cRunaway Baby\u201d with some old school \u201860s dancing. Popping up from behind the drummer, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers \u2013 Red Hot Chili Peppers \u2013 came on. Singing \u201cGive it Away\u201d they had the crowd jumping on their feat the entire time. Closing off the Halftime Show with a tribute to our soldiers overseas, Bruno Mars sang \u201cJust The Way You Are\u201d with a firework show lighting up the night sky.<\/p>\n

3rd<\/sup> Quarter<\/b><\/p>\n

Twelve seconds into the 3rd<\/sup> quarter, Percy Harvin ran an 87-yard touchdown, his first of the night and third for the team overall. Payton Manning, repeatedly tried over and over again to score.

When it seemed like all hope was lost, the Denver Broncos made their first touchdown of the night along with a 2-point conversion.

4th<\/sup> Quarter<\/b><\/p>\n

In the hopes in pulling off a surprise offside kick, the Denver Broncos\u2019 plans backfired as the Seattle Seahawks got the ball at about the 50-yard line. And with that another touchdown was made on Seattle\u2019s end, in the lead now by 43-8. Denver fumbles the ball, to which Seattle gain. No more scores were made for the rest of the game and the Seattle Seahawks win 43-8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
