Yeah, definitely. Indy more than GB, but I still predict a Pats - Hawks SB.

I'll be rooting for the Packers. Even though Rogers is limited by injury he is an excellent quarterback with instinct and accuracy. Hopefully the linemen can give him the time he needs.

I'm still not sold on the Colts. I would be more if they beat a 100% (or near) Manning but beating a team that is limping isn't a difficult feat. Now if they come out against NE and take a 24 to 10 lead by half I would certainly be more intrigued here. But yeah...Hawks/Pats seems much more than likely.

^ Seems like a good hire for the G-men.
The Colts are a wildcard, you never know what is going to happen with them and Luck, but the Pats should win.
Packers have a shot, but Rodgers leg and O-line protection will determine how it goes, still believe Hawks will win.

That was amazing. I love being on this bandwagon. I guess I get a pass on the bandwagon thing since I moved to the area before jumping on.

I still can't get over the Packers not winning the game. So many things had to go wrong...and they all did.

I put it all on bad decision-making in the 4th quarter. There was a series of downs that the Pack merely ran the ball 3 times to waste the clock, but that 3 and out led to Seattle getting back in the game (15 points in 54 seconds or something like that). Had the Pack tried to get a 1st down or two, it might be different.

That certainly contributed, they went into a clock-killing shell way too early.

What a way to lose! Yeah, they were relaxed (pun intended) way too early. So many ways they still could have won. On the pick around 5 minutes left, the Pack returner went down and had a lot of running room ahead of him and gotten better field position, the botched 2 pt conversion coverage, the on side kick, the coin flip.... a calamity for sure. Still its the game I think most people want to see, Pats vs Hawks.
Latest is "Inflate Gate" for the Pats, accused of deflating the balls for better grip. I may buy the outcome of the game if it was 7 points or less difference in score, but 45 to 7? If true, don't think it still would have mattered.

I wont get into "deflategate" because I really DONT think it had anything to do with the game, though it is well known my feels about the Pats and how, I'm sure they will cry conspiracy, but cheating allegations DO tend to follow them more than any other team and of all the matchups. Hope its looked into, esp since I feel theyre cheating mofos :P but that game was legit, I knew Indy had no chance though I prayed for a miracle.
New QB, same sh*t. The colts STILL have not learned any lessons (or they just really fail to find good talent) Amazing QB, solid at best team around him. It's not how truly good teams are built and Indy really had no right making it that far, luckily for them they got to play a hurt Peyton and basically coast by.
That Seahawks game was the stuff of legends, crushing loss for Green Bay. Like, one that can go down in team lore. Another playoff loss, for a team that like the Colts has been built solely on the QB, though perhaps getting better on defense and other offensive talent. No idea what the hell was wrong with Wilson, but showing that "it" factor I talk about...he forgot about the terrible game he played and stepped up when it mattered.
This will be an intriguing SB, albeit one that features two of the more disliked teams Defense vs Offense, though NE has an impressive defense themselves. Really should be quite a game and I am of course pulling for the Seahawks.

Still think the Packers gave it away, Wilson's late game improvements notwithstanding. McCarthy is a damn fool. How do you lose to a team that turned it over 4 times and had a first half QB rating of 0?!!

You lose by underestimating the Seahawks desire to win. Is there really a better back than Marshawn Lynch. In the 4th quarter Russell Wilson stepped up and delivered big time. Taking the shot on third down and six in overtime, run that highlight reel. Jermaine Kearse, free agent, nobody in the clutch. Everything the packes did in the game was nullified the minute overtime started, it was a new game and the Hawks finished them off quickly.

I'll never dispute the Seahawks heart and desire to win but you must admit a crazy sequence of sh*t had to occur for them to get in the position to win in OT.

I think the Seahawks are the most interesting team in the NFL to watch. Sure there was luck involved. The Hawks put on a great show.
