Gl. I want the Steelers. Though from what I've been able to watch, neither team looked particularly good

This will be a curious one with Denver at home. I do enjoy how we constantly hear about all of the up an coming quarterbacks, and yet we get Brady and Manning for the eleven thousandth time.

Did you watch the game? I saw bits and Denver's offense seemed kinda slow going. We could probably win easily scoring close to thirty

Denver's defense is real good.  Tom is going to get banged up, and it will be close and probably reasonably low scoring.  Unless Gronk, gronks.

Denver isn't exciting on offense that's for sure, but the D locked down pretty hard. Bradley Roby from tOSU is a madman.

Gronk tends to gronk, and Edelman being back really seems to be a huge spark to our offense, and that's not me Edelman meming. Gronk looked as strong as ever against the chefs.

you're both wrong.

the game should end in a tie and both teams get to combine rosters into a hybrid team that will advance to the next round.
This is the only reasonable solution.

right?!

also, i genuinely wish the nfl would change how it runs the clock; the clock should run constantly like in soccer, and whichever team possesses the ball when time expires at the end of each half gets to finish its drive.  there should also be a hard 25 second play clock that starts as soon as the ball is spotted for the next down.
I have visited from prestigious research institutions of the highest caliber, to which only our administrator holds with confidence.

Meh, the only problem I have with pacing is touchdown -break-  kick-off -another break. I've never been to a football game irl why does this take so long

If I'm reading this gibberish correctly, patriots are the favored superb owl champions?

The Edelman-Gronk synergy is wicked strong for Tom Brady.  I fully expect Edelman to get hurt against Denver though.

@Junker How about Chip Kelly coming to our team huh?  Eh?  Nice right?

Kip Chelly will undoubtedly have us back at an NFC champ game in no time.

Good luck with all that!

My friends, please remember Tom said this the next time you fall into the trap of engaging him, and thank you. :)

Ugh such a fitting end the Manning saga. Tom Brady shoves the dagger into his career, and he will forever be known for playing in Brady's shadow. Poetic, really

It's 2-2 in the post season Manning v. Brady. I'll take Manning's vastly superior defense this time around.
