Well it's down to the post-season knock-out stage. 12 teams left. Odds:

 

New England Patriots 2/1

Pittsburgh Steelers 6/1

Atlanta Falcons 7/1

New Orleans Saints 11/1

Philadelphia Eagles 12/1

Green Bay Packers 12/1

Chicago Bears 14/1

Baltimore Ravens 14/1

Indianapolis Colts 16/1

New York Jets 28/1

Kansas City Chiefs 50/1

Seattle Seahawks 100/1

 

For me the Colts @ 16/1 is the value bet and I'm still sticking with my prediction of a Saints v Colts rematch (Broncos & Bengals didn't quite make it...)

 

Anyway - where's St George gone? Or is just getting to play-offs no big deal for the Saints anymore?

Just to clarify - I am talking about the 2012 SB that is in Indianapolis. Not the 2011 one in Dallas.

Bears to beat Seahawks, Packers to win in Atlanta. Epic NFC championship game in Chicago (think Saints vs Skates in terms of rivalry) which hopefully the Bears will win but i'm not confident.

 

New England to win through in the APC and win the Superbowl. They have played at a level above everyone else the last couple of months.

Just back from Gillette Stadium - Patriots never got going, but not sure if they were just poor, or Ryan just outcoached Belicheck - probably both. Brady certainly seemed indecisive. Lots of mightily ****ed off Patriots fans tonight.

 

Think the NFC will take the honours now - probably leaning towards the Packers - but only just.

The trash talk got to them,well got to Brady again anyway, the pick early on completely put him off his game, he knew the SB

loss in 2007 was going to come back and haunt him again; He's become a choker, maybe it was windy but he was obviously afraid to put the ball up afterwards.

:lol: Saw that.

 

First time I have seen Brady choke under pressure last night. Jets defence was awesome though. Steelers all the way for me now!

 

Doubt it, the Jest will make the SB now, their corners will pick off Big Ben at least twice, plus the Steelers D didn't look great against the Ravens. Jets-Bears, now that won't be a pretty match to watch,the trash talk should be amusing though.

Have to agree that will be the Jets-Bears in the SB, not surprised that the Jets beat the Patriots just gutted that didn't have the sense to back it at the bookies. Although it was made a bit sweeter by watching the game in my regular pub for the NFL which is normally fairly quiet, this time the Pats fans came out of the woodwork like glory hunting Man U fans so they can crawl back home and put their Brady shirts away for another year.

Win win for me. Like the Jets and the Steelers. AFC all the way now.

 

By the way, I think the Saints players should start doing post match interviews like this:-

Patriots or Steelers v Packers

 

Shame you copped out and put the Patriots in that prediction.

 

As a Broncos fan I'm just glad Cutler bottled it - would never have heard the end of it he ended up with a SB ring.

 

Not so obvious teams to look out for next year:

AFC:

Broncos (of course) - but why not? 2nd in the draft picks and a whole new set-up. Tebow to shine.

Bengals - get rid of Owens and play as a proper team like they should have done this year.

 

NFC:

Rams - McDaniels will get the best out of Bradford

Lions - all those top draft picks will finally come of age.

Haven't some of those top draft picks matured and then retired? Why would it happen this year?

 

I say it every year. One year I'll be able to say 'told ya so'.

 

I would rather be saying 'told ya so' when the Broncos win the SB in Indy in around a years time though.

 

If it is a Lions v Broncos SB then I may just mention this post... (the police do have helicopters).
