100% agreed. i believe that pats will make a run for it. i am not as confident that they will win as i was in the past.

The Colts: plain dont have a chance. mainly because they have to play close to 1/2 of their games outside, and they cant. plus their D is always in question.

Eagles: inside tension, not going to happen.

My best guess is the panthers............ but we will see.

heh 100% agreed with you on that. peyton manning cant win a superbowl alone, as he is easily the colts only true superstar. IMO marvin harrison isnt half of what he is without manning, and shouldnt be compared to owens/moss. if the falcons defenes can dominate, thier running game can control the clock and win it.

dude wtf am i the only bills fan here!

Blind Pick.....................Raiders

Don't ask me why but i have a feeling.. with Randy Moss, Jerry Porters and Lamont Jordan.. they have a stacked offenese which should give defense around the league problems.

J - E - T - S JETS JETS JETS!!!

Ok, who am I kidding? I say we'll do good every year, but despite our awesome head coach, we have a QB that can't stay healthy, a defense that always underachieves, kickers that always almost win the game, a special teams unit that shines when we're ahead by 21 points already and a lack of identity. We're the NY Jets, but we play in New Jersey in ANOTHER teams stadium.

Hell, I love the Jets, but in my lifetime they've never done crap. The first thing they need to do is build them a stadium. If New York won't do it, I'd love to be able to go to their home games here in Raleigh. In the end, we'll put up a good fight and fall just short.

New England wins again.

Guillaume De Sonoma · Sep 03, 2005, 09:05 PM // 21:05

The raiders have defenatly beefed up their line but they can't win it it will come down to the pats most likely but they need to be knocked off their plateau.

I only see two things that can prevent a Patriot three-peat...

1) Tom Brady gets injured. I LOVE Doug Flutie, but he ain't Tom Brady. Brady is the second incarnation of Joe Montana. When the chips are down, he just wins. Smartest QB in the league, sorry Peyton he owns you.

2) Colts get home field advantage in the playoffs. The Patriots are in their head at Gillette Stadium. There's no reason the Colts shouldn't have beaten them last year, but they couldn't get it done. The only thing that could give the Colts the mental edge they need to beat the Patriots would be playing at home.

And don't even talk to me about the NFC... you may as well call it the "Not Football Conference". I don't trust the Eagles to stop anybody when they absolutely have to, and TO is going to blow that team up before the year is out. The Vikings are the Colts of the NFC, all O and no D. And the Rams dismantling the Lions doesn't impress me at all. Do it when it counts, against a contender and maybe I'll pay attention. The Falcons? Two words... overrated. Yeah I'm talking about you Ron Mexico.

Watch out for the Cowboys and Panthers. Carolina is healthy again, and I love Jake Delhomme. He stared down Brady and the Patriots two years ago and damn near got the job done. Parcells finally has the setup he wants in Dallas. If the D plays like it did for him two years ago, they go to the playoffs.

Long story short... Patriots will make history unless Brady goes down or they have to play at Indy in January.

dude the pats lost alot of key people

and im sick of them winning football it is not fun if you see the same team every year winning it

the eagles could have won

the pats are not who they think they are.

in all of the super bowls they only won by 3

and if your so great

you dont win games by 3 in super bowls

you win them by beating the heck out of the other team

like 40 to 20

or 35 to 7

the 49ers qb was the greatest qb ever and still is

joe montana

best qb ever.

MSecorsky · Sep 07, 2005, 07:50 PM // 19:50

The Pats lost a lot of key folks, but they also gained a lot of key folks. Belicheck just simply knows how to get the most from a ragtag group of football players. Mangini will do fine in Crennels old spot. Brady just simply doesn't panic and knows how to win.

The genetic Patriot fan in me thinks the three-peat to be highly likely.

Why oh why did they start Eason in the Superbowl after Grogan got them there... groan...

ty3c... who cares if the games were won by three points? The Pats won three of the last four Superbowls. That's flat out amazing, a dynasty in an era where dynasties were thought impossible. Be it by three or thirty, they still have three rings so far.

Chillin-N-Killin · Sep 07, 2005, 07:54 PM // 19:54

I am by no means a Bronco fan even though I live in Colorado (Go Redskins) but
I think John Elway was the best qb ever. IMO

Bueno Star · Sep 07, 2005, 07:55 PM // 19:55

Chargers ftw!

Spurs and rangers are good right now, and the Boys had a MEGA dynasty in the 90's.

And you dont even want to bring up College ball. Texas is farily dominent in all sports there

Back OT, I'm going for the Cowboys baby.

So...Vikings are going to win it...it's so obvious. Eagles? Colts? Seahawks? LOL...

ty3c · Sep 08, 2005, 12:04 AM // 00:04

No more pats go to hell i hate you and ur fans!

IM sorry but winning 3 is not a dynasty!

the 49ers won 4 or five

the steelers won 4

dynastys are the best ever wins in super bowls this mean 4 or more super bowls

the dallas cowboys

the 70s steelers!

the 85 bears

not this stupid wimp brady i hate him

you try to have him play so good in the 70s

and guess what he would suck!

nowadays too many stupid rules to protect QBS!

i hate it!

come on defense hit him hit him till hes done hit em till hes quit

knock his stupid ugly face out!

and with that mods i ask that you lock this if it becomes a flame war.

Edge Martinez · Sep 08, 2005, 01:11 AM // 01:11

You guys are sad. I was born after Broadway Joe did the unthinkable, so I've been a Jets fan all my life and never seen them win, but I still like football. In hockey I got to see my Islanders pull off a dynasty in the 80's. In baseball... well let's just say the Yanks have won 1/4th of the world series ever played. In basketball I got to see one Knicks championship.

All my teams except the Jets have won a championship in my lifetime, but I still like them and the game regardless of who wins or how many times they win.

Aniewiel · Sep 08, 2005, 01:18 AM // 01:18

I do agree with ONE point that ty3c mentions: 2 in a row with the potential for a third isn't a dynasty. Dynasties are created when win their fourth as past "dynasties" did (i.e. Cowboys, Packers, Niners, etc.).

Completely unrelated: The Cardinals will NEVER win a Super Bowl. Living in Phoenix, I WANT A NEW TEAM not some bloody REJECT from St. Louis. To all you St. Louis-ites: Boy were YOU guys smart to ditch these losers.

*mutters* Sixth largest city in the US and we didn't even BUY ourselves a winning football team (like we did in baseball with the Diamondbacks). *grumbles then cheers for the Seahawks*
