A Pats or Broncos loss effects 33 unscathed players, and completely eliminates as many as 4 other players. ---

Funny how Atlanta gets no love. Only 6 players picked them to get to the show. Are they over-rated at 13-3? ---

> [@TriPolar](#): > > Redskins 24, Patriots 17. I’m going to get a lot of grief over that one. Well I’m out. Son of a bitch! They shouldn’t have started Griffin, but after watching the Vikings get rolled with a backup QB yesterday I guess they felt they had to. ---

Damn,very enjoyable game to watch in Denver. Question…Denver was my SB winner against Seattle,if Baltimore wins the SB against Seattle can I still win this contest? IIRC, Baltimore was not picked by any of the Dopers to win it all. ---

Except, **Procrustus** picked Seattle over Baltimore: I think just getting both teams right would prevail over getting one wrong. ---

> [@For You](#): > > Funny how Atlanta gets no love. Only 6 players picked them to get to the show. Are they over-rated at 13-3? Speaking as an Atlanta fan who DID pick the Falcons to make it to the Super Bowl and win, yes, I think they’re over-rated. I watched several games where they had unimpressive wins against mediocre teams. They strike me as kind of streaky. They COULD win, when they’re good, they’re scary good. And when they’re not good … they’re kinda meh. I wouldn’t bet a large sum of actual money on a Falcon Super Bowl win. ---

One of the three edits I made on that post was to mark off the Redskins from everyone. Looks like one of those edits didn’t take. It’s correct in my local document, so it’ll show properly on tonight’s update. ---
