Great match-ups next weekend.
I predict its going to be either Seahawks or Niners against either Broncos or Patriots in the Super Bowl .

^^^
Both games should be classics. To my mind, the best four teams are advancing.

Sorry Donkey fans, but New England is going to emerge victorious.
Sad to say, but I didn't see anything in this "win" to make me disagree with you. Denver has an astounding capacity to get in its own way at critical times. Stupid penalties, dropped passes (MANY!), and a defense that can always figure out a way to capitulate.
That said, the final drive was a series of important conversions.
But, it's quite frustrating to see the defense show (only) glimmers of a good defensive team. The Pats are not going to make them look good.
What I saw today tells me that it's a virtual miracle if Denver ends up in the Superbowl.

But things are as they should be.
Brady v Manning
If Manning wants to make the best statement he could.. this is his opportunity.
Bummer the Broncs can't defend at 20 yds for their lives though. Fortunately SD didn' figure that out months ago like the rest of us.
Thank god we didnt face the Colts today.
NE will score 30 pts.. the question will be Manning.

True. But I wish it was more about Manning. Bottom line is that it's the whole team, and the defense has been really poor all season. Unless the defense can get in on Brady and really shut down that offense, I don't see the Bronco offense putting up enough points to offset the inevitable Pats scores, Bronco penalties, coupled with the likes of Holliday stupid moves (he's not a net gain this season), and so forth. The Pats just play a tighter game.

Seahawks 24 Patriots 22 Take it to the bank, or Vegas.
BTW, do the Clippers know that Doc Rivers was moonlighting as a QB?

Hawks momentum is back on the upswing, perfect timing,
biorhythm and stadium factor points to total destruction of the visiting team next week,
SF tired after two road playoffs,

Lol sad but true ^^^ It was painful to be an Eagles fan and watch us finally have a season above .500 and then watch the stream end like that. But we did have tge best RB and QB in the league so I'm still happy. Next year with Foles as perm QB and a few tweaks we could have a serious shot. At least the half time show this year has the peppers

There's a lot of bluster going around here about the niners over seattle, but I am a SF fan and I 'll be delighted if they can squeak one by the Seahawks...

I don't know who's going to win or lose, but one thing I do know is that there aren't a bunch of NFL players (and former players) arguing on some website about who will win the Piolet D'Or this year.
