Super Bowl 2011

[Steve Williams]

With the playoffs upon us, who are you betting on as NFC Champs and AFC Champs and which of these will win the Super Bowl.

Plenty of terrific teams this year so I wouldn't be surprised to see some upsets

GreenBay vs Patriots. Unless Brady gets hit by a lightening bolt, it looks like NE this year.

I like the Pats but what about the Eagles instead of the Packers and how about Michael Vick for MVP....sort of like going from the Dog House to the White House when President Obama called

As the saying goes: "On any given Sunday" and as the Seattle Game demonstrated, it's anyone's guess. I think the Patriots are ALMOST a sure thing but in the NFC, who knows. I'm hoping the Falcons can get there.

Regarding the Pats, let's all think back to Super Bowl several years ago when "history was to be made" when the undefeated Pats were the AFC champs. Yup on any given Sunday because the Pats got beat

 

[Gregadd]

that's the cruelty of a single elimination tournament. viva march madness!

 

[Steve Williams]

The first two major casualties "on any given Sunday".....adios New Orleans to the hands of the Seahawks and the Colts go down to the Jets

I like the Pack out of the NFC too, hate to say it, but I think they're better than my Bears. Don't know why anyone would bet against the Pats overall though.

Hi

I do believe it will be , again the Pats ... After it is all said and done .. Brady and Belichik are winning with no-names and for all practical purposes, rejects from other teams .. Right this minute I haven't seen a team that can outmatch them.. They come prepared, and seem to remember the loss to my beloved Giants ... They don't take any game for granted, they will beat the Jets
Now an outlandish question ..
Isn't Belichik the best coach in all (USA) sports? And hasn't he been that for the past 15 years .. Whose better? In any sports? for the past 15 years? Phil? Phil had MJ and Pipen, then Kobe and Shak , then Kobe and Gasol ... Belichik only had Brady as a superlative player and a few not bad-at-all but hardly superlatives ..

Don't think anyone has been better or more consistent. Only things I'd say are a) they're are always some superlative players located around Brady, usually on the lines (Wilfork still, Seymour until recently, et. al.), and that Belichik should have been kicked out of the league for the video/spying scandal -- just about any other coach would have been. It wasn't just one infraction, it was a regular practice. A central tenet of games is that you can't cheat.

Frantz, what an interesting and thought provoking observation.
