January 25, 200521 yr I voted Pats -- I have a bad feeling about it though -- I don't know if the bandwagon can support the weight of all who are jumping on (I guess I'm one) without the wheels falling off.
January 25, 200521 yr I can't pick against the Patriots anymore. Especially after what they did to Indy. Not to mention that Brady is from Michigan, which obviously means he is a WINNER! No Rose Bowl jokes, please.
January 25, 200521 yr I'm actually rooting for the Pats, everyone said they couldn't beat Indy, the stomped them. Defense will always be a key factor to win a championship.
January 25, 200521 yr With the Patriots mostly healthy and 2 weeks to prepare for a team, yikes for the Eagles. This is a Patriots dynasty on the same level as the Steelers of the 70's, the 49'ers of the 80's and the Cowboy's of the 90's.
January 25, 200521 yr oops...i voted for who i want to win...i actually think the pats will win... Go Eagles!!!
January 25, 200521 yr QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 10:12 PM) Rooting for the Eagles, but resigned to fate... Likewise.
January 25, 200521 yr I could care less who wins since the Bears aren’t in it. Still, the Patriots are going to win it.
January 25, 200521 yr QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 02:49 AM) This is a Patriots dynasty on the same level as the Steelers of the 70's Well, I wouldn't go as far as to say that. Let's talk about HOF caliber players. QB: Steelers: Terry Bradshaw Patriots: Tom Brady RB: Steelers: Franco Harris Patriots: WR: Steelers: Lynn Swann, John Stallworth Patriots: OL: Steelers: Mike Webster, John Kolb Patriots: DL: Steelers: Joe Greene, LC Greenwood Patriots: LB: Steelers: Jack Lambert, Jack Ham Patriots: DB: Steelers: Mel Blount Patriots: Ty Law Mel Blount is regarded as the greatest CB of all time. He might be the most important player on a team that has legends everywhere you look. I'm not gonna mention Corey Dillon because he had nothing to do with those first two super bowl titles. The one edge that goes to the Patriots is head coaching. They could never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever begin to f*** with the 70s Steelers, no matter what spiff tells you.
January 25, 200521 yr One more interesting fact about those 70s Steelers -- They drafted 4 hall of famers in 1974 1st Round: Lynn Swann 2nd Round: Jack Lambert 4th Round: John Stallworth 5th Round: Mike Webster That is the most impressive thing I have ever seen if we're talking about the world of sports. The Cardinals might draft one hall of famer every other decade, if that.
January 25, 200521 yr QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 05:00 AM) Lynn Swann is the Gary Carter of the Football Hall of Fame. My pops and my grandfather both swear that he's the best receiver to ever play the game outside of Rice. From what I've seen on bootleg playoff game dvds that I bought on ebay , they're probably right. But yeah, when you take a look at his career on paper, it's not that impressive.
January 25, 200521 yr I was wrong for both Championship games, may as well be wrong again. (I think you know who I voted for )

January 25, 200521 yr I will never cheer for the Patsies.. as far as im concerned the Dolphins will win
January 25, 200521 yr I'm not saying the Patriots are as good of a team as the Steelers of the 70's, I'm a huge Steelers fan and would never admit that anyway :-). The Steelers had 9 HOF's from those teams whether they were deserved for numbers or for the Super Bowls is debatable. I just said the Patriots are dominating the NFL now like those teams of the past did during their tenure of greatness.
