GO PATS!

[The Raven]

My newspaper speculated on the outcome of the playoffs (beforehand of course) - and they've hit it dead on so far. They picked St Louis in the SB - by a big time score difference. Reason? They have too many good players.

[grania]

And, after the last two games, one has to think

God's on their side!!!

[xzins]

Hey, is Michael Bishop still with the Patriots? He was a quarterback at Kansas State a few years back and went to the Pats in a later round. He was never intended, I believe, to be used at q'back, but was such an awesome athlete that they spoke of using him elsewhere.

Anyone know.

I watched him throw a football 70 yards once, perfect spiral, from a flat-footed stand....all arm strength. Fast and slick -- unfortunately not an NFL style q'back. He was a scrambler, option, runner. But he had this desire to win that wouldn't quit; would always figure out a way.

Sorry--but it will be another freakin BLOWOUT!

After 8 1/2 hours of hype--the Superbowl game will be all but over in 15 minutes, and the people at the parties will start discussing how the commercials last year were so much better.

RAMS 52........................PATS 17

[metesky]

On the record:

Pats 27
Rams 24

In OT.

I have spoken...

[metesky]

Also, IMHO, first time Pats have been there with a real coach.

And by now, after '86, '96, the Pats should know the field pretty well. 8^)

[Redleg Duke]

On the battlefield and the playing field, one wins by neutralizing one's opponents strengths and exploiting each and every opportunity.

Does this sound like the Pats?

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Because their fans are good spellers?

[The Wizard]

this is a political discussion?

[Walkin Man]

This will be another in a long line of boring Superbowls. The Pats shot their wads beating the Steelers. When they face the Rams they will be spanked badly by a very superior team. Count on it!

GO RAMS!

[E Rocc]

The key to the game will be the Patriots ability to maintain some form of a ball control offense and keep time of possession relatively even. If they do they will keep it close.

If they don't their defense will tire (like it did against Pittsburgh) and the Rams will pull away in the fourth quarter. Kurt Warner's not going to melt down like Kordelia did.

[Non-Sequitur]

Seven interceptions and three fumble recoveries in the last two games. That's why a week from today New England will be 0-3 in the Big Dance.

[Young Rhino]

#1-10. Kordell Stewart is the most useless QB the Steelers have had since Cliff Stout.

[Taylorsims]

I think the RAMS will win it.

[DoctorMichael]

Goooooooooooooooooooo Raiders!

[BluH2o]

GO BRONCOS!!! ;)

[Wm Bach]

I can't believe the Pats are IN IT. It has often seemed down through the years that the Redsox curse somehow wafted out to envelope Foxboro.

I'm rooting for the Pats. Miracles do happen.

[1Old Pro]

The Pats looked impressive. They need to shut down the Rams running attack and I think they have a possibility of winning.

[FairWitness]

Three reasons the Rams will win.
1) Kurt Warner
2) Marshall Faulk
3) Aeneas Williams

Did Jerome Bettis play yesterday? I couldn't watch but I heard he was out.

Pittsburg without Bettis is half a team.
