Patriots Panthers

Patriots to win the Super Bowl.

That's my prediction. However...

If Arizona win, patriots to lose the super bowl.

If Broncos win, Broncos to beat either and win the Super Bowl.
 
I hope Broncos-Cardinals, I think Patriots-Panthers.
 
Pats Cards

Cards win with a safety

Blatzo gets his own segment on TV
 
QBs record in Denver this season:
Peyton Manning - 6 games, 1 TD
Tom Brady - 1 game, 3 TDs
 
Yeah unfortunately I see Carolina beating Arizona. They're like 2013 Seattle and potentially going to steam roll Denver too.
 
Luckily the AFC game is the earlier KO, can't stay up to see the NFC game :(

Jamie Collins reportedly healthy for this game. We really need him & Jones to play the majority of the snaps.

And Hightower, and anyone from that front 7 really! Need to stuff that run game to have a chance.

Agreed. Stop the run, force Peyton to throw it. I'm guessing that's the gameplan.

We will need to establish the run, can't have Brady throw so much against their D. Could argue the RBs for both sides are as key to this game as the 2 QBs.
 
Disappointing the NFC game is the later one, I think it'd be the better game.

I think our game plan will very much depend on the defence Denver shows us. If they play an extra DB I would expect us to run the ball a bit more than normal. If they play their traditional defence, I would very much expect us to be looking for the match ups in the air.

I think part of it is that for us, those 3-4 yarders is our running game. It's our way of moving the chains and taking away time. No pass rush could ever get to Brady in those plays despite Millers 1 second ability (:lol:). And Brady is intelligent enough to get that ball out in the right place on time. Therefore if Denver doesn't specifically try and stop the pass with an extra DB, we will very likely see a huge imbalance once again.

We pretty much have the worst running game in the league lol, so I'm not overly fussed if we end up passing on 90% of downs.

Pfft, offense isn't where points come from!

One will be better football. The other will be better fascination. If that makes sense. Both games are great and I'm totally watching both.

Yeahhh, as a neutral I want football though. Drama, turnovers and long shots down field please.

Fair, can't argue with that. I'm gonna watch both either way, I'll regret it at work tomorrow though!

Edit: And something tells me both Manning and Brady will play some great football.

Haha. I can't function on no sleep and if a late game was an exciting one, it takes me forever to fall asleep as well. Can't do it.

You're right though we will see some good stuff for sure. I'd have liked to have watched Larry Fitzgerald but I can make do with Mr HGH instead.

Haha me neither but what the heck, NFL can't be missed! Just stick it on record and avoid all NFL related chat until you get home and watch it.

I managed to avoid the Steelers Broncos score for at least a day last week!
 
Took some time off work tomorrow morning to stay up for both games
Not sure I'll last though seeing as I've been up since 8 for football, and have squash in an hour

You should have taken a well timed power nap. You could probably squeeze a few hours in now.

Nah, they don't work for me
I'm committed now to staying up, i reckon i'll drift off in 1st quarter of second game and wake up midway through halftime
 
Very excited! Going with 27-17 for the Patriots, but rooting for Denver.
