I used one of those earlier threads to document my prediction, but I'll repeat it here...

Not bold enough to predict the upset, and Warner is my favorite non-Giant NFL player, but give me the Pats and the points.

Although I still dislike Georgia "Front 'n Rear" for stealing the Rams away to St. Louis, this southern Californian predicts the Rams by 24. C.R.
3-0, Rams...............

Well, well, well. Bloody Sam is in da house and your prediction DWSUWF, is in the toilet.
Is there anyone that still believes that New England is fielding a team of patsies?
My prediction all week has been Patriots 27 Rams 24 and I have no reason to doubt that yet.

That was just about my prediction -- Rams 28, Pats 13. But I knew that the game was settled in the first quarter because the Rams are quick starters. When they don't start quickly, they don't do well. You could tell that all of them, not just Kurt Warner, were tense and tight in a very negative way. Martz was playing not to lose; the Pats were playing to win. And you could see all the coaches yelling at the Rams every time they went to the sidelines -- don't make any mistakes! Don't make any mistakes! It was a scared team and scared coaches. They did not look or act like favorites. Sure enough, somebody made a boo-boo when Warner put the ball up for grabs and gave the Pats a touchdown. After that, the Rams looked like a deer frozen in headlights. Even when they came back to tie in the second half, they looked like losers. I nearly died laughing when Madden advised the Pats to protect the ball and settle for overtime. Anyone could see that the Pats were on their way to victory -- and it was an upset only in the sense that a deer has the spread on a Mack truck.
