the issue in chicago was the wind. i don't think the cold impacts the qb's accuracy. i saw a live feed from the lambeau an hour ago and it looked dead calm.

gb should be an easy cover. the other game is a coin flip.

exactly what happened...Brady throws 3 picks....Maroney goes for over 120 and the Pats win by 9....almost identical to that Jets game. Simply Perfect!! The spread was way too big.

I am sure that Payton Manning watched that game and constantly threw up in his mouth. The Pats were there for the taking today. But, you do have to give them credit, wasn't the greatest performance in history but they got it done.

Spread wasn't go big, Pats should have killed them but they played terrible. Like Pillow said, 2 turnovers equals a cover, well it took 3 but same thing.

Don't you watch football?? So it was a fluke the Chargers got turnovers??...that's pretty much what they do...non stop. The spread was too big for a team that just won at Indy and had won 8 straight. The Pats should not have killed them and they didn't. The Chargers outplayed them for 2 and a half quarters then the Patriots took over and won. They really haven't been killing anyone recently as evidenced by their 2-8 record against the spread their last 10. So no, the Pats should not have killed them. And don't expect them to kill anyone in the Super Bowl either.

If you bet it I'm glad it worked out for you. I was going to bet it heavy, but I really hate the Patriots and was rooting for the Chargers so I laid off.

I dont' know...a crippled Phillip Rivers led some pretty nice drives in the first half against them...as did Garrard...as did Eli. I think the Packer offense will be able to do some things against them if they are lucky enough to get there. New England is the best team...but they look far from dominant their last several games in reg season and the playoffs.

green bay's a much easier cover against the giants than san diego was.

it'll be interesting to see what the sb line is.

kind of agree... a win is a win and congrads to them ...but NE doesn't have the look of a team that is peaking... without LT and Gates (he could move worth sh*t) and a gimpy Rivers ...I was amazed SD played as close as they did..


If Green Bay gets in..I'd say they have a long look at upsetting.
