    Patriots or Colts?

    Packers or Seahawks?

    I'm picking my Patriots of course, but not by a blowout, I think it's gonna be closer than people think.


    I'm gonna go with the Packers with the upset of the weekend. Aaron Rodgers is to much of a warhorse to let his rectus...whatever injury hold him back.

    The Colts are playing like a different team compares to a few weeks ago but I still think the Patriots get the W.

    Earlier in the season the Seahawks handled the the cheeseheads. I think the game will be closer but the Seahawks will win again. If Rodgers attacks the entire field they may have a chance...maybe.

    I really wish AR didn't have this calf issue. I'd really like to see the Packers, who are now in rhythm, against the Seahawks. So for the NFC, I have no idea who will win this game but I think I'd like to see the Packers. As for the AFC, I think the Patriots are too much for the Colts right now. In another year or two if they can replace their aging WRs and get a running back I can see Luck having the advantage, but just not this year.

    You are probably right about the Colts not beating the Patriots but their best receiver (T.Y. Hilton) is only 25. Rookie Donte Moncrief has come along nicely when called upon. Nicks is 27. TE Coby Fleener is 26. Reggie Wayne is a bit over the hill now but he only caught 2 of Luck's 40 passing TD's during the regular season.

    Colts get crushed and ................the other game scares me Aaron is not real mobile now and he is a better QB when he can move.

    The Seahawks have shown vulnerability this year. They are not unbeatable. If Green Bay can stop Lynch they win.

    My preference would be a Colts vs. Packers Superbowl, so I'm positive it will be Patriots vs. Seattle :sad:

    That's true, I guess I was just thinking about Reggie Wayne. They still need a RB.

    I think the best game would be patriots vs packers, so that is who I would like to win this weekend. I think the patriots win it all.

    Son of a B###H (Please refer to location in the top right of my header).

    Just flat didn't show up. Handled the Broncos, then must have stayed in Denver.
    Couldn't tackle
    Couldn't catch
    Dropped the ball

    Actually, that's been the colt's issue all season. #1 in the league in dropped balls, #1 in the league in fumbles and I don't know what yards after contact is but it has to be close to #1 also.

    Really it's just an embarassing loss. I was very hopeful we had what it takes to beat New England but that team has our number. I have no idea why the Colts just never show up to that game but it gets old.

    I'm still very excited about next season. The o-line gives luck time to throw, Boom (Herron) had been playing excellent in his rookie season, Moncrief really came onto the scene. The secondary has some good players. We shore up the d-line in the draft and maybe add hard-hitting safety and we could be on to something. As much as the colts dropped balls, they still lead the league in almost every passing stat.

    Indy should be excited about the future. It just wasn't their time yet.

    They beat a very average Denver team at this point in the season.
