Super Bowl will be......

[skippy3481]

Not at all, in fact in the clutch ill take brady, boy has the biggest nuts. But this is our game. Pats are just a great playoff team, no matter where they play. Colts + dome+ plus healthy D+ backup pats D= Colts win.

I absolutely love the fact that the Bears are getting no respect. Fact is that this is the first real game they had to play in like 5 weeks, and not only that, but the first game where they got back all the nagging injuries. If they play like they played today, they win against N.O, and they go into the Super Bowl in PEAK form

You are a madman Scavs. Hope for bad weather and Drew Brees with frozen fingers. And Scavs I just cannot trust Grossman. I said this after the Bears 3rd game which I think was a good one for him.

Awful weather... and hope the Deuce coughs it up because he will be the best runningback on the field. In fact, McCallister is the best runningback left in the playoffs.

Duece sucks, the Bears D eats backs like him for dinner. Bush worries me though because of his pass ability

If you had Tommy Harris yes. Huge loss for that D. Bush on a bad field, advantage Barz. McCallister will do well in any conditions. And at QB we have a huge mismatch.

No mismatch. Tank Johnson is a 'notch' below Tommy, we don't lose THAT much, trust me. We needed a huge play today and he came through, along with our secondary....when we put the clamps down, we are fine.....

i dont think cold weather would actually affect brees that much, he played college ball@nearby purdue after all. best back left in the playoffs isnt a starter...YET, benson

Benson? The big waste of a draft pick from my alma matre. Cant block worth a damn, slow, cant catch... just a bull. They are a dime a dozen. Holy Cow playa.
I will never forget Mel Kuiper saying Benson would go first in the draft after the Texas-Michigan game, I seriously almost had a heart attack. He ran behind the best line in college football. I could have made 1000 yards behind the line he had.

hes averaging 4.1 per carry so far in his career pg, i expect that to be even bettered when he actually gets to start full time and get into a rythm

Playa he is just not fast enough. 4.1 yards is decent for any part time back. Both Dallas running backs averaged more than that this season behind a highly suspect offensive line.

If he learns how to block and catch the ball he will be declared decent. He was a monster in high school, super quick at 205 or so. I believe as he got bigger he lost quickness. He got very lucky to play behind such good offensive lines.

Bottom line for me: When Chicago lost Harris, Urlacher became less potent and their defense totally changed. Any time you have a defensive tackle that demands two offensive lineman on every play, and then you have a line backer as great as Urlacher and an aggressive, hard hitting secondary, you have a monster defense. Its gone imo. Have you ever seen Urlacher get so totally blown out of a play by a very mediocre Seahawk line from about 7 or so yards out from the goaline? When I saw that one play and how Urlacher was not allowed to roam it became very clear.

And the dome is his home. He played High School football at Austin Westlake and beat the school I taught at twice in the playoffs. He is a Texas QB. San Diego and now New Orleans were launching pads. Purdue gave him the chance to throw the ball with their offense and great set of wideouts while he was there. But there is no doubt he wants nice weather. The Saints want nice weather.

Dial up 33 degrees, wind 5-7 mph and dry and the Saints roll. If their offense is allowed to stay on the field, they will wear Chicago out. And that will happen in good weather. If you got slop or sleet with bad footing and the teams trade punts back and forth, Chi moves on. More chance to score on a punt return, the major offensive weapon of the team sad to say.

Grossman has small hands and it was always harder for him to throw the ball in the wet weather at Florida. We shall see how he does next weekend... my money is on Drew Brees.

Furthermore, living in Chicago I have seen every move of this team, and this week, they were cautiously optimistic because of the last two debacles that we have had home-field, a HUGE relief from the players getting this first home playoff game out of the way.

Look for a HUGE performance next week

[skippy3481]

Sorry i didn't intone what i meant. They are suited to play in a cold weather. Why they have been so solid in the playoffs. They are not suited to play in a track meet on the rca dome turf. Your right i did say that, but that was in reference to the weather. The pats are not a warm weather team.
