Well, the Vikings were 8 - 8, not exactly an elite team

Yeah, I can see that. Steelers or Colts to win it all.

MTK · 01-16-2005, 06:15 PM

With how complete the Falcons looked last night I like their chances against the Eagles

Gmanc711 · 01-16-2005, 06:46 PM

Man, will the COlts ever beat New England?

MTK · 01-16-2005, 06:50 PM

I'm really getting sick of the Pats, c'mon Colts!

Daseal · 01-16-2005, 06:58 PM

Man - poor Colts. Can't get a break with the weather like... ever.

I wish the REdskins were so good that people got sick of them.

20-3. The Patriots are doing what I thought they wouldnt, but still feared they would do all week. Everyone was on the Colts bandwagon, including me.... The Patriots are so freaking good.

SmootSmack · 01-16-2005, 07:15 PM

That last drive was the final nail in the coffin

itvnetop · 01-16-2005, 08:17 PM

it's simply amazing that the pats are able to sustain a dynasty in the free agency era...

Cush · 01-16-2005, 08:34 PM

Go Atlanta and Pittsburgh.

AnonEmouse · 01-17-2005, 03:54 AM

IMHO the Vikes and Colts highlighted exactly why we should be in the playoffs next year. Defense is the most important thing when you get to the playoffs. Having a high powered O is fine if the D can hold opponents and get the O back on the field.

If Dungy and Tice don't sort heir D's out next year, I doubt either will be in their job in 2 years.

The Steelers have a solid (mostly) O and outstanding D and that's why they are my favourite to win the bowl. The Patriots have been playing on heart for the last few games, and while they are good, their strength comes from playing together. With all their injuries, going into Pittsburgh and playing with heart is not going to be enough.

If the Falcons can move the ball like they did against the Rams, they can win it, but in Philly it will be tough. The real question is whether their D can do better than the Vikes. They gave up over 300 yards to the Rams and if Philly control the clock and put up similar numbers, the Falcons will find it tough. I still want to see Atlanta win (to shut up those Eagles fans again if nothing else!), but they have to play at the top of their game to do it.
