New England at Indianapolis

[maveric]

As bad as The Pats played yesterday,capping on Charger miscues, I still beleive that they have Peyton Manning's number in the big game.

My prediction NE 34 - Indy 24.

1. go saints..

:cry:

2. Hey frylock! That game was a hard one.

And although I am from Boston and was rooting for The Pats, I still felt sad about the end of the Charger season, and the way it ended. I've been in SD for 27 years and LOVE The Chargers.

You think Marty will be here next season?

[frylock]

4. according to smacksaw..

Marty and Cam go the the Steelers, Wade Phillips fills Marty's position.

Hard to place the blame on Marty for this one. Granted, burning the TO on that stupid 4th down interception and subsequent fumble was not the brightest idea, and he should have opted for the 39 yd FG early in the game. But still, it was all the dropped passes and bonehead mistakes that cost them the game. I don't see how Drayton Florence can remain on the team after that personal foul that gave the Pats a first down. I look to that play more than anything else that happened yesterday as the one that truly cost them the game.

You only get so many opportunities to make it to the show, and I was convinced that this was the year the Charger's were going to win it all. What a huge disappointment. Oh well, pitchers and catchers report in a couple weeks. Go Pads!

8. Marty made a few bone head moves.

and even though he cannot steer the ship or have any influence on the tides, if he grounds the ship he is responsible. Marty will probably be gone.

that said, the pats didn't bring their a game this week and were still able to get by. pats to the super bowl.

3. That's gonna be awkward - a bunch of old-money Perrier-drinking Congregationalists and Episcopalians

and a bunch of Budweiser-swilling flannel-wearing Baptists and Independant Evangelicals.

I wonder if they'll have separate concessions area for each team.

6. Hey, we have Methodists in Indiana too

They're much nicer than the Baptists when you're picking up your cube of Pabst at the liquor store.

10. You forgot Catholics!

Eastern Mass/RI is hugely Catholic.

Go Pats! No one pulls off a 4th quarter play-off win like the Bad Boys from Boston :)

5. I think this is Manning's year

I really want to see Tony Dungy win one after what happened to him last year.

7. The Patriots

Peyton Manning crumbles under stress while, Michigan man, Tom Brady does not.

I really like Tony Dungy though (Michigan native). And I love Cato June who plays for Indy -- also a Michigan man. But that Manning guy....no thanks. Even though some of his commercials are funny.

9. it's gotta be the pats

they've never, ever Lost in an AFC champ. game (5-0).

aLso, if they couLd knock out the boLts, i wouLdn't put anything past them.

hopefuLLy, vinatieri shanks the game winner with no time Left. poetic justice.

11. Can't go against Brady and..

Belichick right now.

[maveric]

15. Pats have Peyton's number in the playoffs.

Patriots vs New Orleans in the Super Bowl?

[Crabby Appleton]

12. don't know, but should be a good game

[Little Wing]

13. I suspect the Colt's score will be divisible by three

:rofl:

[Broken_Hero]

14. I like your score...

I say the Pats by ten...17-7.....:D Brady owns Manning....
