No. Ryan Mallett is good.
I doubt it. He has no body of pro work besides a few preseason games, and no one has been willing to trade anything significant for him. Why do you think he's good besides blind Boston homerism?

He was a whiny douche at Arkansas and led the only SEC team that lost to Ohio St. in a bowl game.  He is terrible.

No hate at all, just reality.  They are -1 on the road, so they would be -4 at home.  Dolphins are -105 on the money line so the sharps have no confidence in the Pats in this game.

I bet the Pats this week at +120.  I was surprised it wasn't a pick'em.
I have visited from prestigious research institutions of the highest caliber, to which only our administrator holds with confidence.

What a shitty ending to that game. Beast matches down the field as he does at the end of every fourth quarter, them they can't catch the ball in the end zone.

Had I bet that game, it would've been against the Cowboys.  Their typical meltdowns in December have become quite common.

That's okay.  One of our teams is going to the playoffs and the other's isn't.

Yes.  Mwahahaha!

Fucking kickers winning games. Damn impressive. I seem to remember some individual players have extraordinary runs (Ray Rice converting 4th & 29 to beat the Chargers and make the playoffs, Jacoby Jones and Joe Flacco going HAM in the playoffs) for the Ravens last year. Calling it now.

I think Franklin was alluding to the fact that they have an uncanny ability to pull a rabbit out of their hat and win crucial games.

61 yards and the season on the line.  Jesus Fucking Christ.

But I think the Broncos are winning it all this year.  Seattle will probably get there but they will be without their most important weapon, a loud cheering section.

Patriots will pull it off. I'm probably just blinded by my patriots loyalty, but still, their odds probably are not superbad. (feel free to correct me, junker.)

Their odds are okay, currently 4th.

I guarantee it won't be Broncos/Seahawks, though.  One or the other, maybe.  Two #1 seeds in the SB does not happen often, and there is nothing about the current #1 seeds that suggest this year will be extraordinary.
