Well said.

Great comment here.
This is a dynasty that will live forever in Nfl legend, and just like we have the plays, games, players, and dynasties that we wish we were there for, people will remember this one and wish they were there for goat Brady,Gronk smash, and mastermind Gelichick. And the people who did get to live through it? Didnt appreciate the beauty of it, because they were too busy hating. That's gonna suck.
Oh and i'm a cowboys fan who missed the 90s so...yeah.

Jared Allen scratched for NFC championship. Coach wants to make sure Allen is ready to go when the Panthers play the Patriots in the Super Bowl. :awe:

NE lists 16 players as questionable, including Gronk, Edleman, Amendola, and Collins. Strategy?

It's straightforward, they have minor injuries and thus are listed as questionable. However as both Boston and Denver know, it's more likely than not that they all will play.

Questionable is 50% chance of playing. So, not minor injuries in the sense that you and I would understand the term. Some on the list may need surgery when the season is over. That being said, Belichick is known to add everyone as Probable on the injury report for any minor injury since he dislikes that rule. But I think he can get away with that less for the Questionable category.

For instance OG Tre Jackson and OT LAdrian waddle have been downgraded to Out. Tre Jackson is a loss as he is a good run blocker and obviously adds depth to an already depleted line.

Maybe officially, but not in reality.

Denver simply has to execute. No stupid penalties (don't bite on Brady's hard count on third and short), shanked kicks, dropped easy passes, muffed punts, sloppy tackles, busted coverage on Gronk, desperate heaves into double coverage. Get off the field on third down, and make Brady keep overthrowing 50 yard bombs. If they don't shoot themselves in the foot, they have a solid chance to win. I expect it to be a very even contest that will come down to a few plays. 24-23 Patriots, but Broncos winning would not surprise me in the least.

Manning did not look that great last time. Yea his mind is still sharp but his body just can't take it and it shows after a quarter or so.

If he plays bad right off the bat they need to pull him. I don't care who he is, this is a team thing not ego.


But if Manning can play well then yea the Bronco's have a chance. But I don't see that happening.

I doubt they will call for many "50yrd bombs" with a pass-rush like Denver has, not a great idea at all unless it's a play-action fake but the Pats run the ball so rarely I doubt Denver's safeties would bite on that very much.

Wow, that challenge might be the best one I've ever seen. That was some pretty sharp thinking by NE on that backwards pass.
