In their second game this season (aka, “The Real Super Bowl”) Brady and Manning face each other again. Denver is favored by 5 1/2 points, but don’t make the mistake of counting New England out. The Patriots have been winning with smoke and mirrors all season long. They lost their two tight ends, they have crappy wide receivers, they’ve become a running team. No matter. The Patriots find a way to win. This game should be fun to watch.
Sorry Niner fans, I think Seattle will win this game. Seattle impresses me as the best team in the NFL. They are very tough to defeat on their home field. If any team can do it, it could be the Niners. But that would be a huge upset. The Seahawks are favored by 3 1/2 points. I’m going with the Seattle Seahawks vs. New England Patriots in the Super Bowl February 2.
I don’t like to make predictions but I hope you’re right. My heart is with Seattle and Neww England. I probably won’t even watch a Geldings/Neeners Superbowl.
I agree with you about the Patriots but I’m not convinced on the Seahawks. The Niners have won 8 straight and the Seahawks proved they are not invincible at home. On the other hand, I was extremely impressed with the Seattke defense last week. If they can control Kaepernick…I guess I’d give them a small edge.
For once I think the NFL’s four best teams are still standing in the Championship games.
Bob, I feel confident about my Seattle choice. I’m less sure of a Patriot win. Manning can put up a lot of points.
Jeff, I agree with you: the four best teams are in these Championship games. Weather shouldn’t be a factor today.
The Broncos didn’t look so great against the Chargers. I am going to see modern dance instead.
Patti, I’m headed to the pool for some aquatic frolicking. I’m more interested in the late game.
Obviously, it’s SEAHAWKS all the way here. I agree with Jeff’s insightful comments on the NFC game, it will be all about defense and if Russell can make some big pass plays. . I’ll watch the AFC game with interest, and we’ll probably root for Denver just because Barbara lived there for years + Manning went to Tennessee, where my brother was a professor at the time (now retired). Tenuous, I agree, but ya gotta root for someone, right?
Rick, if I were a betting man I’d go with the Pats and the Niners and take the points. I have a feeling these are going to be very close games.
Broncos it is. Seahawks look lousy but have just pulled ahead in the 4th qtr. I wonder why Deb hasn’t commented, and why so many things upset Cap’n Bob.
Rick, I think a Seattle Seahawks vs. Denver Broncos Super Bowl will be entertaining.
I demand perfection in everyone and everything, Rick, except me of course. That’s why I seem so upset. But THE SEAHAWKS WON so I’m quite happy. I’m not happy about the Geldings. If Brady could have hit his open receivers in the first half it would have been a different game.
I think it has the potential to be a pretty good super bowl.
It’ll be a great one if the right team wins, ergo THE SEAHAWKS.
