Nope, Panthers are your Super Bowl champions. A running QB will be Belichick's achilles heel.

It's never happened yet. Not the first rabbit QB he's shut down. Pity the fool who is the target of his defensive game planning.

Neither of these teams are beating the Brady Bunch in the AFC title game.

It doesn't matter, neither one of the AFC teams is beating either team from the NFC, unless the officiating is just putrid in favor of one of them.

There's one from the refs at the perfect time to save Shitsburgh. Didn't see any holding on the replay.

Still it's a little hard to watch Tomlin prepare his team to win by taking the FG and then go for the on-sides. Romo would still be on the field right now trying to throw from 5 Wide on 4th down and goal from his own 2. Garrett would never have that sort of foresight.

No doubt there, and I think this is one of the better defensive teams he's had in a while. My guess is he'd double Olsen and let his corners handle their WRs with little help.

But Newton isn't a "rabbit", he's more like a bull. Not like BB has even faced many like him, much less stopped them.

I'd agree on paper, but the Patriots just have this knack for making good teams look like shit. I don't think NE beats either Carolina or Arizona, but I would not be shocked at all if they did. I do think they beat Denver which means I am going against my original prediction of Denver vs Arizona in the SB in the other thread. Peyton is looking real old these days and I expected Denver to handle the Steelers with a lot more ease. Denver is nervous in these playoffs, and it nearly cost them a game against a clearly inferior opponent. They show up nervous like that against NE and it's game over before the opening kickoff in my opinion.

I think NE is just a better team. Denver's OL is horrible, I mean awful. Between that and Peyton looking like he should be on Social Security, in a way I think they've done well to win homefield and get this far.

McCarthy to Lacy- "lose weight."

Lacy to McCarthy- "look in the mirror, bitch."

If I remember correctly, this past summer you predicted that this would be the year P. Manning's skills would decline significantly.

You were right.

you'd never hear that come out of jones' or his minions mouths about Cowboy players

they're idea of coaching em' up is "atta boys!"
That's right because being a fat tub of shit who can only run two or three plays before retiring the rest of the game due to exhaustion doesn't affect their ability to fight scratch claw.

Payton Manning lucked out beyond belief today. Weather for Denver is around 50 degrees and little wind.

They might have a real shot to win now. I think had it been really cold or windy, he'd have been eaten alive and outplayed badly by Brady again.

Same here... But I wouldn't mind Carolina being in there either. Anyone but New England at this point.

Denver and Carolina for me. That's what I predicted before the playoffs started. So I'm sticking with it.

With the ass whooping they put on Seattle last week in the first half they are going to come out jacked up and confident

I still think they will win it all

However I would like to see Bruce Arians get a ring as HC so I'm happy either way.

But I think Carolina has the better chance against the Pats. If Denver wins like I think they will then either NFC team can beat them. If it's AZ vs NE in the SB I think AZ looses. And the last thing I want is for the Brady Bunch to win another SB

I don't want to see Manning get another ring

I liked him in Indy but when he went to the Broncos he became the enemy

Watching Raiders games with friends it kinda just becomes natural to hate your division rivals

Like us hating Philly. Same thing
