Patriots! Super bowl here we come!

**Sqratch** · 01-22-2012, 03:15 PM

What a game. Epic field goal miss. I kinda feel bad for the kicker, the look on the other teams faces were priceless!

**Malakas1981** · 01-22-2012, 03:18 PM

Can you say ray finkle! Wide left

**noahpictures** · 01-22-2012, 03:35 PM

Go Pats!!!

**chado006** · 01-22-2012, 03:38 PM

Yeah, talk about a choke!

**jtb** · 01-22-2012, 03:40 PM

That was one of the most painful kicks I've seen in a long time.

**SalvadorMontenegro** · 01-22-2012, 03:41 PM

Somehow I knew he was gonna miss it.

Great game. Brady was flat out bad. The Patriots' defense won it.

**Walter Sobchak** · 01-22-2012, 03:44 PM

That was a nail biter. So glad Lee Evans couldn't keep his mitts on that ball at the end.

Without a doubt the D and some luck. I had an uneasy feeling if it went to overtime it wouldn't of paned out to well!

No mater what happened though a win is a win baby!!!

I predicted a Pats/Packers Superbowl at the beginning of the season. I was half right.

I hope the Pats lose terribly in the Superbowl...

Props to the Ravens for one hell of a game. That defense was unbearable and this was down to luck. I still hate Ray Lewis btw. He's scum.

Not a chance. Do you really think the giants or the 49 ers can even come close to our caliber? Nope!
The only way they will win is if Brady plays worse than he did today which I guarantee he will not. And the D not show up. Sorry dude looks like the pats are going to be champs again. Wooohooooo. Down with all the pats haters. Pats fans stand up!!

**Malakas1981** · 01-22-2012, 04:44 PM

How about the bruins ?

I mean, the Patriots could beat either of the NFC teams; but this Patriots team is nowhere near as good on either side of the ball as the team that went 18-1. That's an awfully bold assumption.

Tells us how you really feel.

Sort of off topic, but how horrible was Steven Tyler's Star Spangled Banner? Good Lord!

**Phog Allen** · 01-22-2012, 05:43 PM

Whew. What a weird game. And yes it is always this way when the Pats and Ravens or even the Steelers mix it up in the playoffs. Brady throwing not one but two INTs? Right in the teeth of the Ravens double coverage? One of them caught by the defender in the most improbable way imaginary. I like how the announcer(I don't know if it was Simms or not) said Bernard Pollard tipped the ball to the other player. Ahem. He was trying like crazy to bat it away and did. But to hear the announcer it was nearly like he planned the tip. He wasn't even looking at the other player. He was doing his job. You won't likely see Brady make that mistake again anytime soon. And Cundiff missing the chipper? Sure. Hey, I am a Chiefs fan. I know about bad things happening in the playoffs at the feet of a kicker. It is just the weird crap that happens. The Pat could just as easily say it was pure luck Brady missed Gronkowski down the middle for a TD. And it was very lucky for the Ravens indeed. Again, it was really nothing the Ravens did. Brady muffed the throw. Just like Cunfiff did the kick. Anytime you get these AFC rivalry championship games you get stuff like this. Agree though that Brady looked as "bad" as I have ever seen him. And I emphasize that because even when his not himself, he is pretty good. I think the Pats take another trophy home this year.

Cheers, Todd

**Phog Allen** · 01-22-2012, 05:46 PM

Salvador, I agree completely. Yes it is OT but I am sick of the disrespectful way these "artists" treat our national anthem. Even the fans are bad at times. Right here in Kansas City the fans in Arrowhead will scream; And the home of the...Chieffffssssss at the end of the song. I cannot stand it. I am probably in the minority but man, some of this stuff is too much.

Cheers, Todd

Hail to the "D".

Did you watch the infamous 18-1 Superbowl against the Giants? Did you think the Giants had a shot before going into that game?

I'm a lifelong Pats fan, but I don't know how any football fan can look at NYG and SF and say they aren't even close to the caliber of NE. NYG and SF are both well coached and they both have talent.
