Good stuff Willy!

It's too bad I don't have that much $$ for gambling this week, I'd actually do a straight bet just on San Fran (I usually always parlay) I see a weakness in the Giants defense, or at least a potential weakness, I'm sure Harbough notices it, plus even more things that I can't.

And SF's defense is no joke, the last tough defense the Giants faced was Washington, and they got owned. Green bay, Atlanta, Dallas, were all soft on defense (those were their last 3 games) I can see Eli reverting back to his multi-interception methods. Those NY WRs, as great as they have looked, I don't think will have a field day against the San Fran secondary.

I believe the Giants are peaking at just the right time. I pick the G Men by 3! As for the Pats/Ravens game, the Ravens will need to put pressure on Brady. The Ravens excel at stopping the run but Suggs notwithstanding, they are not as good at rushing the passer. I pick the Pats by 6 over the Ravens.

When I woke up this morning, I could not help but think of what things might have been. My first thought was that if my gf's brother would have continued to play at the level he was at the time of his injury, I believe the Texans would have earned a sideline ticket to the Super Bowl this year. Truthfully, I would have even liked T.J.'s chances today against a lackluster Pats defense. With a little luck and a few well placed turnovers even T.J.'s offense could have scored 20-24 against the Pats. If that were the case, I can not help but feel that Wade would have put enough pressure on Brady to make his day absolutely miserable.

I believe the Pats would have been favored, especially at home, but we might have squeaked out a narrow victory! Coulda, woulda, shoulda!

Yep, I agree. With that, it's game time!!!

Guys, I just had the weirdest dream. It was the Raven/Texans game from last week, but it just started from the last drive. So this is what happened, instead of the hail marry we threw to Dre, Yates just threw a short pass to Foster for 2 or 3 yards, and Foster went down to save time on the clock, we all get back at the line, except Dre, Walters, and Daniels are still all the way down field! I was like WTF? It was like Jullio Jones in the game with Atlanta where it took him forever to get back down-field. Anyway, we were going to spike the ball, and did with only 6 seconds left, and on the spike play, somehow, Eric Winston got injured lol. he popped his elbow and had to be taken out of the game, it was such a cluster-fuck. We did so much work for such little yardage, I didn't even see the end of the game because I woke up lol. But I'm guessing it just ended with another heave to the endzone...

OMG they should have found another person to sing the star spangled banner YUCK

And for the love of God will they stop with "And Another Houston Texans FIRST DOWN."

Props on the call BT

Thought Eli looked good, not great, but pretty good. Thought Flacco looked pretty good as well earlier today. No QB on any team really lit my world on fire.

Niners played a little to cute, I thought. Doesn't matter, though. Giants were a better team. Ravens gave a good effort, but we're getting a rematch. I personally do not care for this rematch as I have no one to root for. The last time they played I at least got to cheer on Moss.

I blame Miles Austin for this..

Rematch of the Giants and Patriots....can't say I'm overly excited but it will be a party nonetheless...

Welcome to the thread SH, have you attempted your Greek adventure yet?


Anyone watching the Pro Bowl? Not sure why, but I don't give a damn about it.
