| I like the Giants chances, especially since they played Green Bay very well in their last meeting. Plus the Giants run game is getting better and the secondary doesn't look as pathetic.

 sailorPremium join:2003-10-21 Long Island kudos:6 | reply to I AM said by I AM:What do we do if Tebow wins? The NFL has to be loving all the attention due to Tebow from yesterday. A corporate dream to have a product or event that will bring out new people to check out their product or event. The NFL, the broadcasters and advertisers are probably foaming at their mouths thinking of the amount of new eyeballs that would tune in to a Tebow quarterbacked Superbowl.

 rockotman...Blown On The Steel BreezeEmerging Research join:2000-08-06 DSotM | reply to Moorecards Well, now that defenses will be aware that Denver is willing to let Tebow throw deep, that will change the defensive game plan.
Lebeau got schooled yesterday, and Ike Taylor, usually pretty reliable, had a horrible game.
I suspect that adjustments will be made by Belicheat to address this. And if that doesn't work, you can bet your sweet bippy that Baltimore's defense will adjust accordingly.
I can't see Houston getting past the Ratbirds in ratbirdland.
I think Nawlins will geaux into SF and send the other Harbaugh brother home this weekend.
And as much as I would like to see the gints knock off Green Bay, I don't see that happening either.
But I will wait to later in the week to make my playoff poll picks... I need to think these things through this week with a clear, detached, objective mind. I failed to do that last week, even though I was pretty sure the Cincy didn't stand a chance, and was very uneasy given the Stillers very tenuous injury situation and knowing that Ryan Clark would not be playing. -- Shine on you crazy diamond... |

Athletes that train at 5,280 feet of altitude on a regular basis tend to have increased endurance in your compressed sea level air.
Take it from someone who used to bicycle, ski, run and roller skate in a place that had a base elevation over 8,200 feet.

| reply to rockotman said by rockotman:Lebeau got schooled yesterday, and Ike Taylor, usually pretty reliable, had a horrible game. It wasn't just Ike Taylor. All the Steelers' defensive backs seemed to take one step towards the line of scrimmage, every play, in order to play the run first. That left them a step or 2 behind covering receivers all day. -- their dreams a tattered sail in the wind |

| You're gonna have to pretty much avoid all sports talk/TV for at least this week unfortunately. I would expect NE to win handily, but I thought that last weekend as well with PIT. NE may be able to change their defensive gameplan, but they've been weak on D most of the year. Their best defense is their own offense. |

Lets look at Tebow apart from his faith. Isn't the dude like the ultimate underdog? Everyone looks at him and tells him he has no skills and he doesn't belong in the NFL. Then he goes out and wins games and makes plays. He overcomes his weaknesses that people tells him he has and wins. How can we not root for an underdog? |

 jabarnutLight Years AwayPremium,MVM join:2005-01-22 Galaxy M31 kudos:2 2 edits | said by I AM:WHY? Lets look at Tebow apart from his faith. Well, that's the thing. There are times I'm all for the underdog. But the media and a lot of other people have grabbed hold of his whole 'faith' thing, and run with it big time. (Don't get me wrong, his particular faith has nothing to do with his ability as a professional football player, as far as I'm concerned). Funny thing is, even I somehow find myself sucked into this whole thing, and make references to his faith. I'm not so sure he would be getting the media attention he's getting at this point if it weren't for just that. I've seen a lot of players who were underdogs, and turned out to be phenomenal. Take Brady for example. If it weren't for the fact that Bledsoe got hurt in a game, we may have never heard of him at all...but the rest is history. Yet I don't recall him being in every sports headline in every newspaper in the whole country, day after day. If I have any point at all (which I usually don't), it's that the amazing hype in this particular case is starting to get to me.
But what do I know. Maybe the football fan upstairs is controlling this whole thing after all.  -- I had a life once.....now I have a Computer and a Modem. |

 | reply to Moorecards After watching the Broncos on Sunday, I started thinking that they are a lot like the Panthers team that went to the Super Bowl. The league's best running game, a solid defense, and an inconsistent quarterback that's pretty good at throwing the long ball. Fox has been here before. |
