That is very interesting. Thanks for sharing that. Looks like NE might use this, and will probably need to against Seattle’s Armored Divisions on defense.

Re: Projected winner: NE but it should be close. I think NE’s defense will stop Seattle enough for NE’s offense to blitz Seattle one too many times.

Gadzooks, Papa-- Not only do you agree with... us four Super Heroes--

ESPN's Experts are for the Pats 11 to 4.

And even if the Seahags pull off a win today... they still lost at home to my Boys!

Gadzooks is right. Hey, I didn’t see Captain America or Iron Man in that picture. Maybe they’re predicting the Seahawks.

These teams are very close, but NE shows a slight edge in net points scored for the season. I failed to include this in my analysis, but the NE edge may very well be its field-goal success. NE is ranked #1 in the NFL in successful field goals and #1 in long-rang field goals between 40-49 yards.

NE’s field goal capability may be enough of an edge to take Seattle’s Armored Divisions. Should be a fun, good game, but don’t take my seat while I get some more pizza and beer...

Will this one be a blow-out by one team or be a competitive nail-biter to the bitter end?

Too many times we see ‘great’ teams literally fold during the playoffs/Superbowl.

I predicted Seattle would repeat so I’m sticking with that, even though I’m tempted to punk out and switch.

21-17

The Seattle Seahawks as a franchise, est. 1976, will be 319-319-0 all-time for the franchise if they pull this off. Pats are a worthy foe. How fitting if the game that cements them as a perennial winner happens to be the Superbowl.

Go 'Hawks, and blessings and divine protection to both teams from injuries and bad calls...

Cool stat. They had a lot of lousy years!

Is Sherman playing with a busted elbow? ... I hope he has two TDs off of interceptions. I don’t like either team, but the crap rained down on Richard makes me want the Hawks to stomp the NE Pats.

Sherman’s elbow was distended - it was pretty good in a couple of days - I don’t think he missed any practices, but was going easy the first couple.

Earl Thomas was taking it easy on his shoulder during the practices right after the game - doing the running but no hits. They both were playing full practices this past week.

Kam Chancellor tweeked his knee the second to the last play on Thursday’s practice. He was helped up and limped back to the locker room. He did do the walk-through practice on Friday and they said he looked pretty normal.

He’s the one I’m a bit concerned about and his match-up with Gronkowski.

His elbow's fine and he made interceptions in practice this week. We also had a scare with Kam Chancellor's knee on Thursday, but he's been put through a hard workout to test it and is fine.

The funny thing about Sherman: he's actually a brilliant guy, a communications master with a Bachelor's in Communications from Stanford. He writes well-written articles and helps the teammates with content for their websites... It's quite entertaining - and fun - to see how fans and commentators take the bait and dismiss him as a common gang banger.

I won’t lie: Gronk scares me. Not only is he arguable the most skilled TE ever to play the game, but the ‘Hawks historically have struggeled against good TEs. The 3-TE set worries me today. I won’t be a bit surprised if NE runs quite a bit of it...
