This game is going to be as ugly as the first.
Quoted from TheLaw:Steelers going with Green Bay's game plan...bold choice.
right down to the missed XP!
Quoted from Eskaybee:Will ATL defense do any better?
They'll at least put up points to match Pats.
And Bell is out...NE vs Hotlanta it is.
Quoted from Astropin:Atlanta won't "tank" this year and they outscore the Packer's at home.
NE will win at home as well....probably handily. I would certainly give the points at 4.5.
NE has to be the favorite to win it all but a NE-ATL matchup "could" be a pretty exciting game.
Looking good so far.
And with that turnover the last nail; OK now I can go do some work around the house. Carved them up like a thanksgiving whore!
Steelers played pretty much like crap from the start.
Oh well, the only teams I hate more than the Steelers are the Patriots and Redskins.
Epic asswhipping is all I can say. Might end up being the worst ass kicking in playoff history at this pace.
Quoted from RWH:Epic asswhipping is all I can say. Might end up being the worst ass kicking in playoff history at this pace.
45-7 asswhipping against Indy a couple years ago. The interesting part is there have been a bunch of un-patroit drops and shit, should be even worse.
Wow. As much as i like the patriots and are happy they are winning, its alot more fun when the games are closer and i have to drink a few beers to calm my nerves

Just gives you the chance to drink a few to calm the Steelers nerves.
Well guys it pains me to say this, especially to the Cincy boys, but it's officaly time for me to spend time with my family.

Have a good one my friend.

Wait....you're not THAT far from me.

Rats! I'm over 1200 miles away.
I hope The Falcons kick some ass in SB LI and take The Pats down. Sick of Bellechek and sick of Brady. Go Atlanta!!!
Early Super Bowl odds.
NE -155
ATL +125
Found one -3.5 NE and no total yet. Probably be one of the highest totals in sb history.
Atlanta was impressive. I am looking forward to this year's Super Bowl, except for Lady Gaga. It's time to revamp or get rid of the halftime extravaganza. When I go to a football game, the stadium is playing something like Metallica or AC/DC. They aren't playing Lady Gaga or Cold Play.
Atlanta's defense sure didn't look to be the 25th rank D in the league did it. I honestly believe they have a very good chance of winning this thing.

Halftime show is for the wife's and kids. Total corporate shmuck. I'm a football fan. I don't give 2 shits who's singing at halftime.
Halftime is a piss break, smoke break and grab some sandwiches and wings.
Spent the whole day working on pins in the garage while watching the games. Was not surprised to see the greatest living American maul the Steelers, but I was happily surprised to see Atlanta maul Green Bay. I'm not a Falcons fan, but Matt Ryan is a class act and deserves to be MVP for his play this season.
Looking forward to a good super bowl despite Gaga.

I watched them a couple times this year and they reminded me of Dungy's cover two defense. Especially the years where the Colts D sucked during the season but showed up big in the playoffs. They were a "bend don't break" D that allowed a lot of yards but provided some good stops in the red zone.
Quoted from Monarca1091:GO PATRIOTS !!!!!
You're two weeks late with your gifs. If they win the SB do we get to see your rare photo of Brady taking a dump in a falcon's nest?
It was a rollercoaster season for me. I'm definitely bummed to see GB bumped again in the postseason, but it seems a bit easier to accept since we were obviously outmatched. We'll lick our wounds and hopefully explore FA to make another run next year.
I'll be hoping the Falcons can pull one out. They seem to have the talent to take this one. Overall, I just want to see a better game than what most of the playoffs have offered.. how about the first SB to go into OT?

I kind of wish gb won so we could see a remach from 1996 patriots vs. Green bay. I was only 6 when that game happened but i still remember watching it.

I was only 37 when that game happened and I don't remember anything.
Quoted from SteveO:I was only 37 when that game happened and I don't remember anything.
I remember *almost* picking Rison in a 1st to score Prop bet, and Remember Howard Winning MVP
Quoted from Erik:Hope the superbowl will be tighter than most of these playoff games
I agree, all the games sucked in the playoffs so far except for the GB/Dallas game.
Gonna be hard to bet against the Patroits here...whenever they have a good running game the get the win.
Quoted from MotorCityMatt:I agree, all the games sucked in the playoffs so far except for the GB/Dallas game.
Exactly.
The same can be said for the regular season as well. Yes, there were some really good games, but they were few and far between.
Even the end of the regular season was a huge letdown, with almost no drama left regarding who was going to make the playoffs. Almost everything was set before the final week, other than maybe home court advantage. Don't know if any of you listen to Chris "Mad Dog" Russo, but he was going on and on about how pathetic the regular season and playoffs have been, and said the NFL ratings were down for good reason.
The season was a snoozer, that's definitely true. The Packers/Cowboys matchup did still get more viewers than game 7 of the world series this year - even with all those bandwagon cub fans!
I'll watch the skills competition this week, I'm glad they brought that back. I have close to 0 interest in the pro bowl game, as usual.
