Tom "Iceman" Brady

Man, Belichick is as charmed as Marty is cursed. Did anyone notice how just about every flag in the second half was against the Chargers? It's as if the officials all got together and agreed not to call the Pats for anything.

One thing's for sure -- this was New England's biggest challenge. Now they can set it on cruise control. They beat a better team that made too many boneheaded mistakes, and there's no other team left that stands a chance.

Belichick and Brady have always had the Colts' number. The NFL could change the rules just for Indy and allow the Colts to line up 15 players against 11 Patriots and the Patriots would still somehow win. The ball always seems to bounce their way no matter what.

Unbelieveable.

I know it was the regular season, but the Colts have beaten the Pats two straight times. I wouldn't crown the Pats just yet, just to borrow a phrase from the great Dennis Green.

I hated the fact that NE won today! I was really hoping for a SD vs NO Super Bowl! I just hope Indy can finally get into it. If Chicago gets in, I just don't believe they have a strong enough team to win it all! I don't trust Rex Grossman!

What's up with LT at the end there? He looked pissed.

I think he was just frustrated over the loss. SD should've won the game today!

arguing over who is a better player in football is stupid because it's a team sport that depends on the other 10 players on the field with them. Whoever you believe is better is subjective and cannot be seriously proven.

LT was pissed that some of the Patriots were doing the Shawn Merrimen dance on their logo at mid-field. He called it classless.

he said he was upset with some of the pats players because they went to the center of the field and did that dance thing that shawn merriman always does.

Not neccesarily. One great player can make a world of difference for a team. Look at how much better the Skins defense was with Shawn Springs in the secondary as opposed to how unbelievably awful they were without him. It's a team sport, true, but you can't say that great players can't make a huge difference.

I hope poor LT didn't have his feelings hurt by a dance!

Ill buy him some Johnsons and Johnsons.

Brady had a horrible game. He missed passes that he would normally make in his sleep. The Pats received several gifts and took advantage of it.

They do not look like a Super Bowl Champion to me.

The Pats didn't win today because of Tom Brady, the guy was picked twice.

To demonstrate how little playoff football is about the quarterback, consider how many times Peyton came up short, playing well, but getting little help from his team. All of a sudden, he's playing poor this year, and getting help from his team and now he's got his best chance to reach the big game. Go figure. Maybe the 21 other guys influence the outcome more than the quarterback. Duh.

Manning's body of work over the last eight years is unbelieveable. Brady's is nothing to spit on, but clearly not in the same league. The question shouldn't be who's the best quarterback in the league, it should be who's the 2nd best, Brady or Palmer (or Brees if you want to swing that way)?
