I'm going to go out on a limb and predict the Patriots have the best chance of any other team of going undefeated this regular season!


Are you giving odds on that one??? tongue.gif

Da Bears still suck!

The beautiful thing is that the Pats will get bounced out of the playoffs...

The NFC is just awful. Not sure how else to say it.

Really? They bye out of the first round, don't they?

They have a first round bye, but I can see either Indy or SD taking them out down the line.

I agree. I still think they will not "run the table" and go 19-0. 72 dolphins can open champagne soon.

I think the Dolphins record is bunk. I read that they only played 2 teams that year with a winning record and even in the Superbowl the team was .500. The talent level and complexity of the game today is eons above back then, this is a true apples and oranges comparison.

...Saying what people are thinking but are afraid to say....

Sorry, going undefeated and winning superbowl is not bunk. Are the pats a better overall team than 72 dolphins-probably. But for that season Miami did something NO other team has done since-thats pretty special.

SD? I think that's the last team that will beat them in the playoffs, but then again LT is a "very classy person" and he would never start celebrating on another team's field. ahh great memories

Yeah, I am definitely a bit biased towards SD...but you gotta admit, they are playing pretty well at the right time! If only friggin' Rivers can get it together and be a bit more consistent. Getting rid of Brees was a bad, bad move...

I'm trying to put those two games out of my mind.

12-1 vs. The NFL

0-2 vs. Da Bears

Hurricane Ditka sure was blowing in at Soldier Field this past weekend.

I respect your football picking skills.... who do you think is gonna win? the colts or cowboys or is Favre gonna continue to surprise people?

Looking forward to tonites game, but I already know who will win - still, it'll be fun watching Payton Jr making a go of it.

There's a game tonight? Did you jump in a time warp and go ahead in a few days? tongue.gif

As for the football picking skills, let's just say that it's been a lucky year for me. Normally I stink at this stuff. I think my only skill has been getting in all my picks on time!
