Atlanta vs. Steelers in the SB.
Atlanta for the win.
Atlanta for the win.
As a Pats fan I'm picking the Pats but this game can go either way. The B rown B ell B en combo will be a tough test. Hard to predict an outcome here.
Falcons vs Packers will be a game where I just sit back and enjoy it. I like Ryan a lot he is a humble guy and deserves a chance to win it all but Rodgers is on fire.

I think I have to go with the Packers this week. They're hot right now and with Aaron Rodgers playing in a dome...Yeah, I'm sure they're going to air it out a lot.
But again, Falcons are playing really well too. They took care of the Seahawks (granted, there were injuries) but the play calling from Shanahan was great.
A part of me wants the Packers to win, so the Niners can officially announce Shanahan as the new HC.
Side note...I thought Gutenkust was going to be the GM...But he backed out. Crud. I really hope we have a legitimate GM which will work with Shanahan...And I hope Shanahan doesn't go power crazy.

It will be a great game. If there's any team that can take away/limit a teams top weapons it's the Pats. Hopefully they're able to do that.
They couldn't limit cj procise when the seahawks played them and bell plays the same as procise only better. If I remember right procise got 150 yards against the Patriots.
Hey I never said it was perfect, no game plan is that's why you play the game. I would imagine that he was not the focus of their game plan. They have much bigger weapons that they probably tried to take away. In a Patriots loss you usually hear a name you weren't all that farmiliar with having a big game because they took away some of the bigger threats. But as I said, it'll be a tough game regardless, the Steelers are a great team.
That's true, it was cj procises first or second start so they got sure weren't game planning for him.
Pretty crazy how good greenbay has been playing and they're underdogs in Vegas.
I'm calling a Packers/Steelers rematch, though I would love to see a Rodgers/Brady Super Bowl just to see all the reactions post-game on the Internet.
The Steelers are a scary team, I was hoping to see the chiefs but Pittsburgh beat them.
Damn if that's true it might be too much to overcome, even for Rodgers.... but they'll probably play I think. At least 2 of them
Odd are that I'll be missing both games. Definitely the Packers game this afternoon, but also the Patriots. With three woman in the house, and 2 of them being kids, I'll be busy doing the family thing
If the Patriots win tonight, they'll win the Super Bowl. Why? Because the New York Football Giants won't be there to beat them.
GB fan? We were kind of hoping for a Steelers v. Packers superbowl, we have really good friends from the GB area (so of _course_ they're Packers fans
). We were planning on an epic party at their house (Steelers representation on this end), pool, football ... chips, dips, chains, whips.[doublepost=1485121149][/doublepost]
24...Fixed that for ya.
See #1145
So umm..Who's the real best coach ? Pete Carroll won the superbowl. Dan Quinn was the assistant head coach/DC.
Now Quinn in his 2nd year as head coach has his team on the cusp of the superbowl while carroll sits at home wondering about an offensive line.
