I'm picking a Manning Super Bowl, although little E's loss today kind of shakes me on that one...Carolina or Atlanta might be the most guster the NFC can muster, you know?

I can't believe the Eagles lost last night, they were playing so well. They finally started up their running game. Then all of a sudden, Mcnabb makes that silly interception. Ugh. I guess its over for the Eagles.

I feel bad for the Eagles, I really wanted them to show everybody they don't need T.O. ....and I don't think they do. They need Donovan to be healed.

With that said however, I'm a Panthers fan. Gotta root for the only major league (technically) home team for South Carolina.

Go Cowboys!!!

Around my parents house there is one strict rule. If you do not like the Cowboys, UT, or the Stars then you can just get the fuck out.

Ok, who thinks the Colts are gonna go unbeaten? I for one think they have it looking at their last 5 games...Tennesee, Jacksonville, San Diego, Seattle, and Arizona. The way I see it, the only two teams on that list who have a shot are San Diego and Seattle. What does everyone else think?

I think the Colts have a great shot at being undefeated as well. I think the biggest challenge for them might be the next to last week at Seattle. If they have everything wrapped up as far as home field advantage, do they rest their starters?

I think the Colts are primed to do it... after those 3 relatively easy games, they're going to be super pumped and looking to go undefeated. San Diego has a deep talent but is unreliable... Seattle is hard core at home, but I think they'll take care of it. Sad news for Colts fans though, they might win their first playoff game but no way they'll make it to the Super Bowl. Why, you ask? Because it is Peyton Manning, and Peyton Manning will never ever win a Super Bowl because he is a choke artist and he is scared of the playoffs! I think Eli will make it before Peyton does.

I don't know how this whole rest their starters thing is even an option. GO FOR THE GLORY, is what I say.

Peyton has a top defense to help him out now. The offense doesn't have to put up a ton of points to beat good teams like they used to. Peyton will win a Superbowl. If not this year, eventually.

I just wanted to let you all know that the Dolphins won today. So proud I am of my precious Sage Rosenfels...and just a note, if we win out (@San Diego, NY Jets, Tennessee, @New England), we'll probably win the AFC East - even if we don't win out, if we win that last game we'll probably take the cake and make the playoffs...poor San Diego, won't make the playoffs even though they so clearly deserve it.

Dolphins are gonna have a hard time stopping the Chargers. But they have proven they can be a comeback team, on rare occassions like this past week.

It makes me sad that I have to ressurrect this thread.
So what happens now...Colts are no longer undefeated, Bengals, Pats, Seahawks, and Indy of course have all clinched...who wants to throw out any more Superbowl predictions?

I'm gonna go crazy and say Bengals/Panthers.

DriftwoodProse · Posted: Sat Dec 24, 2005 1:26 am Post subject:

I would just like to state, for the purpose of pride, that the Dolphins did indeed defeat the Chargers just like I said they would - and we beat the Jets, and were eliminated from playoff contention all in one week - we are an amazing bunch. As for the Super Bowl...I too like the Bengals, and since the Seahawks have homefield for the NFC, I think they'll take the cake. Also, just a pride thing - the longest winning streak in the AFC is four games right now, held by the Bengals and my Dolphins...stupid Seattle has won 10 in a row, oh boy! Next year, look out for my Dolphins, I'm telling you.

last week of the regular season, boy it was a good season, huh. i'm watching the chargers/broncos now, and if eric parker makes 4 catches this game (he has already made one), he hits his bonus figure and makes $500,000 extra. that's some intense pressure if there ever was any. anyway, gonna be glued to the set for the post-season, and let it be known that the colts will not make the super bowl and anyone who wants to take money on that, you just let me know.

I wouldn't bet on them, but I would love for the Colts to win it all. Manning gets shit on so much because of his playoff failures. If he wins a Super Bowl he'll finally be recognized as one of the all-time greats.

The Houston-San Fran game was great...they both tried so hard to win - or lose, I couldn't really tell...that was awesome. The Dolphins won again, by the way - I don't care if it was against backups, a W is a W...now we rebuild. Best of luck to everyone's teams in the playoffs...I'm rooting for Colts or Bengals (I'm actually just rooting for Peyton and the Bengals), and for the NFC I'm rooting for the Giants, but I don't think they'll be able to beat the Seahawks...especially in Seattle.

i would love to see the colts get in, especially for the heartbreak they had this year.

but, i do have to stick to my pats before all - there is a slim chance we'll make it, and get 4 outta 5!
