These are easily two of the most complete teams in the NFL this year.  Scary thought about them is that they each have a star player that will miss some time in the early part of the season. Broncos LB Von Miller will be suspended for the first six games for violation of the substance abuse policy.  And 49ers WR Michael Crabtree tore his achilles early in minicamp in the spring.  If they both return later in the season to their superstar form both teams will be even better than at the start.  This should be a tremendous matchup and one that many pundits are picking as well.  Just know this.  My last three Super Bowl predictions have had at least one of the participants right.  Last year I had them both.  My track record speaks for itself.  Football is back!
