Are you saying this is not the 1999 season?

Patriots 33 Packers 27

Broncos 31, Packers 34.

Steelers 21, Seachickens 10

History repeats itself. Prepare yourselves for another decade of crying from Seattle fans.

Easy to win the Super Bowl when the refs are helping you out.

See? Let me give you a Terrible Towel to dry your eyes with.

I’m sure if we go through all the football thread we’ll never find you complaining about the officials.

New England 27, Green Bay 24

Packers 30, Patriots 24

Patriots 20, Seahawks 17

Patriots 34 Dallas 17

Hey I had to deal with a Broncos fan that is 100% serious that the reason they played so badly last year in the Super Bowl was that they were paid off.

Seattle was last year’s Batman. They were prepared.
Everyone is prepared this year. Except for the Panthers. And maybe Indy.

Seahawks 24, Patriots 23

Patriots 27, Seahawks 21

Gotta say, this is the least diverse group of picks we’ve ever had – just about everyone is playing it really safe with very few outlier picks.

Looking for Cardinals, Panthers, Ravens, Bengals or Colts picks? None to be found here. Only two players picked the Lions, both of them looking at them to come out on the losing end.

There is one Cardinals pick to be found: dalej42. Otherwise, yeah, like I said before, most seem to think the Patriots will take the AFC unless you like the Steeles (little confidence in the Broncos), and 3 teams seem to have the NFC relatively equal divided between them. Hm.

Well,goodnight Dale.
