2015 NFL Season

[Drew]

I went 3-1 again this past weekend and having a pretty good record in this years Playoffs.

New England looked the best this past weekend. Carolina looked bad in the second half but I do hope it's Carolina vs. New England in the Super Bowl.

When you're up by 31 going in to the third... you simply don't come out with the same juice. I take away more out of their first half then their second half.

Both games should be good imo.

It felt like Carolina took their foot off the gas pedal and couldn't ever get back in sync again. Carolina got completely shut out the second half which isn't promising. If that happens again with teams like New England and Arizona, it could end up costing them big time.

Yeah but one would imagine they won't have a 31 point lead at any point.. and will be competing at max level throughout the game . Most people liked Seattle in the game, no it;s not like they were expected to be up like that either.

I didn't like the Panthers mojo either. I think they will have their hands full with the redbirds & something tells me Denver beats the Pats

It took Denver overtime in their own building to beat the Patriots who were without Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Jamie Collins to start the game, lost Hightower at the end of the half (they had 43 yards rushing with him in the game in the first half and 136 yards and 3 TD's without him in the 2nd half), then they lost Gronk in the 2nd half.

All of them are back for this game and firing on all cylinders... I know things don't exactly play out this way, but if the Pats from Saturday meet the Broncos from Sunday... It is a blow out ending with Brady preparing for his 7th Super Bowl appearance in 15 years.

All true. And I have a lot of confidence the Patriots will come out on top, without much of an issue either. That's if the Patriots play up to their level and avoid injuries, mistakes, etc. You never know though. Anything can happen on any given Sunday. All things being equal I think the Patriots are better than the Broncos by a wide margin. It's really not even close in my mind. But, we know all too well that the better team doesn't always win. Denver is a tough place to play and Brady is only 2-6 there in his career. So it's far from a sure win. But I like their chances.

My biggest issue with the Broncos is their receiving corps. Catch the fucking ball! Too many passes right in the hands of the receivers dropped. Manning's receivers must make him want to bash his head repeatedly into the turf.

Brady is 2-6 in Denver and 5-2 vs. Wade Phillips Defenses. If Hightower/Collins are healthy and play majority of snaps I see Patriots stopping the Broncos run and blowing them out. Otherwise it'll be a close one. In the last game, the running didn't click until Mayo replaced Hightower and Denver beat the pats on the edge. Mayo lost like 3 steps with his injuries and couldn't seal anything like Hightower was able to through a quarter and half.

I got Patriots vs. Cardinals in the Superbowl. Lets go Pats!

Hate to have to break it to you but Mayo has been put on IR. He's done for the season.

Ya I saw it, won't make a big difference though as long as Hightower and Collins are healthy. Mayo was regulated as a 3rd/4th option at linebacker anyway.

Not a big loss. He hasn't made it through a full season going on 4 years now. He may have played his last game with the Pats unless he reworks his contract next year. I can't see them carrying him at that number. He used to be a Pro Bowler, but he's a role player at best now. Injuries really took a toll on him, too bad. Hightower and Collins are the future, and the future is bright. Nice building blocks for the defense.

I'm 6-1 in the Playoffs so far.

My picks for this weeks games:

New England over Denver   
Carolina over Arizona

I sure the hell hope New England wins...because if they don't, Carolina or Arizona will make SB L an effing blowout!

Congrats Denver, that defense was amazing today.

They ate Brady for dinner. They were all over him all day.

[tim_m]

Well i think the Panthers found their killer instinct again. Ouch!

Cam Newton and the Panthers put on a show for the ages as they sealed their bid to Super Bowl 50.

Total domination.

Brady getting annihilated all day long was almost worth my Steelers losing to the Broncos

You know...he looked REALLY deflated in his post game presser.

The Broncos really knocked the air out of him, over and over, all day long.

[JAEBALL]

I watched Bill's post game presser over the NFC game...

Those things make me crack up every time....

Very happy for Peyton... that was a big one for him... one more win...which will be very tough... and he can ride off in to the sunset taking a backseat to nobody.

Miller and Ware were animals.....
