Steelers have the advantage tomorrow.

After last weeks game, anything is possible

I'd like to see the "Stillers" win but I'm not so sure they can. NE's Defense is tought and that rookie Q'back Roethesngouaerouoiuaoieruberger will make mistakes. Bill B. is one **** of a coach too. Good luck.

 

[Mamala Bay]

Just like them Cowboys/Stillers superbowls in the 70's. Two tuff D's and Bradshaw & Stauback at QB's. Stillers D got that mystique...will be a good one.

A little while back I thought the Steelers were without question the best team in pro football. After all, they are 15-1 (one of the best records ever) and they beat both the Patriots and the Eagles in the regular season. But I thought they did not look very good against the Jets and I now think that the game is a toss-up. Both teams are used to bad weather and the Patriots are just amazing-inspite of numerous injuries at cornerback they just keep winning. They embarrassed the Colts. Game could go either way and I would not want to bet on it.

Same thing with the Eagles. The Eagles have looked like the best team in the NFC for quite a while. But their passing attack definitely has been hurt with Owens gone and the Falcons are playing very good right now. The Falcons are not used to the terrible weather as much but with their ground game it may not matter much. That game is a toss-up also and I would not want to bet on it either.

Turnovers may determine who wins in both games.

Just another thought-if there are high wind conditions it addition to the cold, passing attacks may become impossible. Both the Steelers and the Patriots have good running attacks. And I don't think the Steelers want their quarterback to throw very many times anyway. The Eagles have a decent running attack but I think they mainly depended on passing. Atlanta definitely can run with the football-Vick and Dunn and others. Could be Atlanta in the Super Bowl versus either Patriots or Steelers.

The team who executes their game plan better will win.

Which team is more likely to do that?

 

[Mystic]

I don't think anybody can execute a game plan better then the Patriots.

 

[Brett Miller]

Hopefully he's in the passing lane too. Turnovers will determine the winner.

I've got the Pats at -3 and the Under at 37. It's amazing at how the world of online betting has changed the way I watch football.

 

[oldman]

I don't understand betting, -3 does that mean the Pats have to win by better than +3 and what does the under 37 mean.

 

[buster]

My expert analysis tells me that the team that scores the most points will win.

 

[jorton]

I judged these teams by how they performed last week so I bet a dollar on NE and Atlanta. Now I realize that's a bad strategy and I'll probably win 1 and loose 1.

If I knew who is going to be hottest in the first half, those would be my picks. Any ideas?

Just another thought - My all time favorite foul weather/blizzard QB is Chicago Bears Jim McMahon.

 

[oldman]

I think Atlanta will be great in the first half and then the cold and fatigue will get to Michael Vick in the second half. I think Pittsburg is just going to run the entire game and grind it out.

 

[Pablo]

I just want to see some good play and good games.

I honestly could give a rat who wins and who goes to the Superbowl. Sometimes this final series is the BEST and the 'bowl a BIG let down. Sometimes we have folks over, often not.

I mostly use the time wisely, spread all my financial crap on the oak coffee table....pens, highlighters, calculator and only look up for cheerleaders and actual play and bean dip.

The Pats have to win by more than three points. 37 means total points. I need the Pats to win bymore than 3 points and to have the total points under 37.

 

[GROUCHO MARX]

Buater, ya think?

 

[oldman]

Thanks Scott P. I can't see how anyone will score combined over 37 points in either game.

Well, you're halfway there.
