AFC Championship

[mikeyc]

Moss: Was hoping to get through a season without any stupid stuff happening. From what he is saying, it's a former friend looking to take advantage and make a payday. For now I'll just give him the benefit of the doubt because of how forthcoming he was yesterday - I just hope it doesn't distract any players this weekend, I doubt it will, but the timing on this was interesting.

Rivers: Yeah, I'd probably want to be like Mike Milbury and beat the fan with his own shoe if he said something about my wife, but still it didn't look right.

Dancing: Yeah, it's last year and I don't like seeing players from my team act like that - I think it's just that in the post game press conference, that's what LT focused on...Seemed childish.

Jack: Where are all the podcasts??? Had lot's of fun with the live talkshoe (Chuck Norris is in the coffin) - and looking forward to the marathon.

Enjoy the game everybody!

that sums it up yes i was not a fan in fact i poked fun at his troubles in Oakland to my friend whos a big moss fan

but this is it he has turned a lot around and i hope the allagrations are false


and the cutler rivers debate will be settled years down the rode but now this Tom Brady is the best for now and for a long time to come.

I'd have to agree, Right now Brady is the best.

I follow football, but not every player. Is Tom Brady the best? It might be a stupid question, but could he have done, or attitude-wise, would he have done what Peyton Manning did with the Colts if New England was just as bad?

[Redsox]

in one word YES. but hear are 3 resigns why.


he one three super bowls with deion branch as his best WR

he still spreeds the ball out like no other QB ever before one wr(moss) led the league in TD at the same time another (welker) led the league in catches.

third people underestimate his knowledge compared to manning i would say its as good in not better they go no huddle a lot and there is NO ONE better at the 2 minute offense

EXTRA- 13-2(best all time) playoffs compared to 6-7

[ironfiggy n middy]

it wouldnt be a big deal about rivers or moss or anyone for that fact but thats all the media focuses on!!!!!!!!

there is no reason for the cameras to focus on rivers walking down the field!!!! no one would have ever known what rivers was doing if the cameraman was letting us see the game!!! which is why i watch sports!!! anyone can call themselves a sports fan but if youre focusing on what the players are talking about or doing off the field than i think you need to watch the soap operas instead!!!!

i can care less if brady had a kid with one model while with another or moss knocking someone around!!! rivers talking trash!!! the media edits it so thats what you focus on!!!

i like brady, moss, rivers whoevers on the field having a great game!!! but i wouldnt want to hang out with the drama queens!!!
i know it will never happen because people love the drama (even i find myself getting wrapped up in it) but why cant we talk about FOOTBALL!!! that could be fun too!! the great catch by weddel and chambers, vincent jackson stepping up!!! welker unbelievable year hats off to him!!! and the 98% pass completions by brady!!! awesome!!! favre with the heart of no other football player ive ever seen!!!
alright enough of me!!! sorry just wish it was like the old days where you talked about football and there was no paper or internet telling you their personal lives!!!

the pats should win but anything can happen!!! thats why they play the game!!!

see ya on the boards hopefully to talk some football after sunday!!! this is going to be a great weekend!!

[benxtaron]

I don't like the Patriots, but you would have to be stupid to think that Brady is not good.

He will be, in my opinion and if he wins this year, the greatest playoff quarterback ever, and that is saying something.

Nuff was wrong! Pats will beat the Giants in the Superbowl!

These two Superbowl teams lead to an interesting fan make-up. The Patriots have only been around since 1960. Before that time, in the New England area a lot of people were Giant fans. If your grandfather was a Giant fan, then maybe your father was, and maybe now you are.

I had a friend whose father loved the Giants and I was at their house when they beat the Bills in the last seconds....

I never understood why a guy from MA would be a Giants fan, but I learned about this later on.

So, this will lead to a lot of local Giants fans coming out of the woodwork these next 2 weeks....

I love living in Titletown 2K!

[Redsox]

i lived in a western part of ma and there are a lot of giant fans and worse a lot of Yankees fans who jump the border and steal hard working redsox fans jobs, i would say it also true for pats fans too.

[ironfiggy n middy]

im not sure who i want to win??? i like some players on both sides and dont care for some on both sides??? just hope its a good game but i think the pats might blow em out!!! im rooting for whatever numbers i have on my squares!!!LOL

what do you guys think?? patriots are 14 pt favorites?? giants defense isnt that bad are they???

but im saying patriots 42-24

[Jack]

I'd like to see Seau get his ring.

42-12 pats
unfortunitly for eli his team i think will fold under pressure, the G-mans pass rush has to go up ageanst a full health offincive line, unlike last time and i think thats gonna allow the pats to unleash the hounds.

there secondary is bad so i say pats can more then exploit that. Im willing to he will get his ring

[ironfiggy n middy]

yeah the secondary is bad!!! and i dont think eli will be able to handle the hype!!! but heck ive been wrong all year!!! what do i know?? i had a girl from the uk beat the heck out of me!!LOL

I wish the superbowl could have been Colts Patroits, even though they are the same league. That would have been a good game, but the Giants just won't have a chance. I guess I'm rooting for Patriots, since Chargers and Packers got knocked out. The Packers deserved it though, cause they sucked that game and got really lucky with those first two field goal misses.

[lillostgirly]

Sorry to all those who are Giants fans, but the Patriots in my opinion are deff gonna win. I don't think the Giants will be much competition for them. I was rooting for the Packers myself. Really bummed when they didn't win. Brett Favre just didn't have enough in him I guess. Not bad for an old guy ;D My dad has a lot of respect for him because he's out there playing. Anyway, I agree with whoever said Eli will fold. That's partly why I wanted the Packers to win. They would have been better competition for the Patriots. Oh well.

Maybe you did not see the week 17 game between these two? The Giants were about the only team who actually made the Patriots nervous. I'm not even a giants fan, I'm a diehard jets fan, who hates both of these teams, but hates the giants a little less. I definitley think it will be a good game, Eli is playing so well right now, they have a ton of momentum, and I hope they beat the Patriots.
