John Elway is going to come through one more time, and then he’ll retire.” “I think the Falcons will win. Jamal [Anderson] will kill them - they won't be able to stop him. Minnesota played him well, but he won’t be held down two straight weeks. Jack Proper, 07, Commu “The Falcons will win, and Jamal Anderson will be the MVP. 1 think the Falcons want it more, and I think Denver will underestimate them.” “Denver and Terrell Davis - it won’t even be a game.” Collin Ludmer, 02, Commu “Denver.
