Belifuck will find a way to exploit the seahawks with the run game, and use gronk when needed to keep them honest. New England's linebackers and secondary will be the difference, the pats will win

I'll be pulling for the Seachickens but think the Cheatriots are going to take it by more than a TD.

Seattle has a chance because they have a good defense and the Pats* won't be playing at home and able to deflate footballs and otherwise cheat as much.
The Pats* W-L record and beating the spread at home defies all logic and odds.

If the Hags play like they did against the Pack it's going to be ugly.
One thing I wish the Steelers could emulate that the Pattys excel at is capitalising on other teams mistakes. You turn the ball over the Pattys take it and score and do not let up. 45 points isn't enough for Belichek.

Old Pete needs to place a call to Coughlin ASAP.

The Seahawks can stop Brady's five yarders and the run game. The Seahawks have weak receivers though. Chickens by 3.

Now that the walrus is no longer affiliated witht the seachickens, I'll be pulling for them. Just for the record, if he was still there, as much as I disliked that organization at that time, I'd still be pulling for them.

I don't think the Cheats are used to this kind of defense. Cheats have faced weak secondaries the entire playoffs, the Raven's played them close because the front 7 pressured Brady. Seattle has both a strong secondary and front 7. Not looking like a good matchup for NE.

A lot will depend on the health of Sherman and Thomas in the secondary. And they've got to get Wilson moving around and running the ball more. The stuff he did late in the 4th and in OT was what he should have been doing much more of earlier against the Pack.

On third downs, the Pats pull out the underneath pass where the inside WR basically "picks" the outsides WR coverman as the outside WR cuts behind and towards the middle of the field. I would love to see someone be able to park a LB and blast the WR when he catches the ball. It's usually Edelman or Amendola...their smaller WRs.

Also, the BS roughing calls when sacking Brady have to stop or free points for NE.

Hate to say it....Pats are going to be tough to beat.

Easy game to call. If the Seahawks can pressure Brady like they pressured Manning they win. If not, they lose by 10 or more points

Seabirds put pressure on Brady and when the Pats receivers catch the ball hit them with some force . Seabirds 24-17

They're not a polished group, but they have big-play ability. Kearse, who caught the game-winner, is kind of a big-play extraordinaire for them. Last year he had a big postseason and the game-sealing TD in the Super Bowl. They have an athletic freak at TE, Luke Willson, who caught the wild two-pointer. He wins one-on-one matchups. Baldwin is a solid, dependable Ernie Mills type. Lockette is a burner. Most importantly, they have a QB who manages his targets well.

Wilson managed the hell out of those WRs... to the tune of 4 picks and could have been 5. Wilson is one of the most over rated QBs in the NFL. He has a great defense, special teams and running game. It a shame that an average QB like Wilson is going to win 2 SBs in his first 3 years while much better QBs like Ben sit at home.

One ****** game and all of a sudden he's overrated? Nope. Wilson is a very effective qb in this league, I've already seen enough of him to think otherwise. Sure he plays with a great defense and run game, but I'm not gonna pretend that he's all of a sudden going to suck *** whenever the day comes when Seattle's defense comes back to Earth. Does he have a weak arm? No. Is he overy-innacurate? No. Does he have a history/reputation of choking/******** the bed? No. He's a very good quarterback

I think Wilson is a good game manager type, who can run it too, and plays smart. He does have a good arm. Not a top 5 QB, but top 8-12 I think.

What Coach said and Vader eluded to. Wilson is overrated and benefits from that Defense as well as Lynch. BTW Lynch > Blountygirl. If GB doesn't lay down the Wilson bunch never sees the light of day there.

That said, go chickens!

You have to consider the WWF storyline that does the NFL the most good at this point.

Given the beating the corporate offices have taken this year, what do they need to save their image? Now that the *'s have been accused of cheating again, does this make them the "bad guys"? Are the Seahawks the new White Knights of the league?

Are they going to prove that (Like the Broncos of the 90's) a team CAN win back to back in the new FA world? Especially with a wholesome kid like Wilson out there tossin' the ball around? Or are we going to see the rise of the Evil Empire, Are we going to have somebody to hate again that we can root against for a season?

What story is most compelling going into another season?

Think WWF. That's what ya gotta do.

So the Harbaugh Bros will storm the field during the game and ***** slap Bilacheat and proclaim the Ravens to be the real America's Team and that they will reclaim the AFC Trophy in the declaration that it belongs to all the Baltimorons.

*Patriots... if only because it will annoy the collective of 31 other NFL fanbases that the cheaters Belichick and Brady are being groomed to be the greatest Coach/QB pair in the history of the NFL. They will win this one and the next one to get 5, then retire at the pinnacle of the game. Then Rog in his infinite wisdom will work to rescind the NFL's requirement of a 5 year waiting period for Hall of Fame enshrinement so Belichick and Brady can be inducted immediately, with no other enshrinees inducted that year.

There will be parades and celebrations mandated at every NFL stadium to signify their ascendance to NFL Godhood - and their pictures will be erected at all stadiums.

Or - the Seahawks crush them, and can polish the *Pats AFC championship trophy with KY jelly and shove it up Belichick's ***.
