Just in .... in the NFL playoff match between Manning/Broncos and Brady/Patriots .... Brady and the Patriots came in a close second. Some will attribute the team's second place finish in the game to deflated balls which Brady will deny.
So is Brady going to the Pro Bowl, or is he going to pout again and sit it out?
I won’t hold that against you either. ;)
I’m not a fan of the NFL so much, but I watch it because my husband is a sports enthusiast...of almost every sport. I am much more into college football. Generally speaking, I do enjoy athletic events of almost every kind.
I like sports and everything, but if given the choice between a good book and a football game, the book’s gonna win almost every time. And when the Patriots are on, the book wins every time.
I guess the reason I love NFL championship games so much is because my New England Patriots win so many of them.
Well, those two interceptions don’t make a strong case for your argument. Brady led a valiant effort to save the game on those 4th downs at the end, but otherwise, it was not a good day. Few third down conversions all day.
Nothing beats the NFL playoffs.
Pats lost because Brady got sacked all day long. Offensive line got owned.
Broncos defense played extremely well. Congrats to them, Broncos earned the win.
I am not sure they are going to have what it takes to beat the Panthers, but it should be a great game, I can’t wait to watch it!
Glad to see Wade Phillips doing well.
Looks to me like they come in 3d or 4th, not 2d.
I don't know about that. Carolina is winning big.
You mean “The Northeast’s team”.
I am as a Colts fan. Colts #1, and whomever Manning is playing for #2. He is a stand up respectable good guy. I love his his children’s hospital wing at Riley. Know of many a baby saved by the place. Peyton is a good man. Luck still has to prove himself to me, but Peyton is a mensch.
yeah !
Great game by two admirable quarterbacks. Curious play: Patriots had the ball 4th and 2 yards with 8 minutes left in the game. The Patriots lined up, did not do a quarterback sneak, did not kick a field goal, and lost a play with an incomplete pass.
Denver was the better team today but the Patriots seemed to give up a good opportunity.
The Carolina and Phoenix game was tough to watch. 34-15 in the 3rd. Brutal loss for Palmer’s team.
It’s gonna be a heck of a Super Bowl. Carolina looks incredible.

Great game....

Denver failed to cover the spread which was 3. New England backers rejoice!
