Yeah, I still think the AFC is in for an asswhooping in the SB. I think that NO is about the only team that will give them some trouble. I actually thought Houston was a great matchup, but these injuries have made them pretty much a one and done playoff team.Laley23;1019002 wrote:Packers flaws were exposed a lot this year, Chiefs finally capitalized. Too bad for NO and everyone else they have to go to Lambeau. I still dont like anyone in the AFC.

Yeah, i think so. I don't put this loss on Rodgers. That defense never got off the field even though they only gave up 19 points.gorocks99;1018997 wrote:Could definitely act as a much needed kick in the ass

Super Bowl was 31-25 last year.
I don't think the Packers are as strong this year.
Defense hasn't been as good. Offensive line is kinda banged up now too.
NE doesn't really match up well because they can't stop the Packers, ever. I think the Packers win that like 45-35.
Ravens or Steelers would play enough defense to keep it about the same as last year. 31-25 ish.

That seems reasonable, but for some reason I dont see anyone getting by the Pats this year, despite the awful defense. Packers shoudl roll at home. NO is a different team in cold weather.Non;1019011 wrote:Super Bowl was 31-25 last year.

Ball control beats them obviously, so if you keep Rodgers off the field....they are beatable.Non;1019011 wrote:Super Bowl was 31-25 last year.

Denver is going to run all over the NE defense today. Already going early. Same MO as the Chiefs win, ball control and TOP.

Also, Kyle Orton was awesome today. He has been shit on no matter where he has been....good for him

I just saw the Johnny Knox hit.
Dude looked like he got broken in half. Awful awful hit.

Obviously a tough season for him with Tebow pushing him out the door.
But he's still a legitimate starter.

Interesting game, though, and I'd rather see the Broncos win.

Tebow huge TD run. Had him in the backfield, couldn't bring him down. Denver ran all over NE. 73 yards rushing. 7 - 0.

NE is on pace to be statistically the worst pass defense of all time. Im guessing we will see that their rush defense isnt good either today. But possibly a chance for them to not end as the worst pass D if Denver doesnt throw it. No clue who they play to end the season though.

Then again, this has been a day of upsets.
NE could be in trouble.
Cleveland strikes first.
Hopefully San Diego gets in on this.

They did. If they can do that all day long, it will be a tough day for NE. Now let's see what the Broncos D has.

only 9 yards, but he was in the backfield 5 yards deep and they had him wrapped up, just couldn't bring him down.like_that;1019034 wrote:How long was the TD run?

That's the problem though, Hernandez torches 'em for a huge gain. Those TE are a matchup problem.

Might be a shootout in Denver, Brady hits OchoCinco for his first TD as a Patriot. Wide open.
