This is not a prediction, just a wish:

Eagles 27
Falcons 13

Philly finally gets to the Super Bowl by shutting down Vick's running game and forcing him to have to throw.

Patriots 27
Steelers 24 (OT)

Okay, let me set the scene for this one. Two very good teams fighting it out in the bitter cold. The Steelers have a 24-21 lead with under a minute to go in the game. Brady drives the Pats into field goal range and with just two seconds on the clock, Vinatieri drills a 49-yarder right through the uprights! Longest field goal in Heinz field history! We go into overtime!

Then the Steelers win the coin toss and get the ball. Big Ben drives them to the 20 yard line! Field goal unit comes on the field to win it for the Steelers. But Bruschi BLOCKS THE FIELD GOAL! Bruschi BLOCKS THE FIELD GOAL! Holy crap! Tom Brady then drives the Pats right back down the field but the Pats are stopped to where Vinatieri must attempt a 50-yard field goal INTO THE WIND! The Steelers call a timeout to "ice" Vinatieri. The crowd is going absolutely bonkers. Vinatieri then lines up and drills it perfectly. Will it be long enough! Everybody at Heinz stadium is holding their breath as the ball tumbles and tumbles and tumbles through the air, curving in the wind so that it lines up right smack between the uprights and the ball HITS THE CROSSBAR AND JUST BOUNCES OVER! It is good! It is good!

PATRIOTS WIN! PATRIOTS WIN! Adam Vinatieri is the GREATEST KICKER IN NFL HISTORY! All across the country, people are having heart attackes! What a game! What a game!

Look for a repeat performance from the Patriots. Vinatieri will score early and often, hitting 3 field goals and 2 xp's. The 1-dimensional Steeler O will be shut down as Benny Boy turns the ball over at least twice. Look for Brady to play a "smart" game as usual. Dillon rushes for 100+ and scores a TD.... Def/Sp.Teams puts up a TD for the Pats.... can't wait for Jacksonville!!!!

TOMMEEEEEEEE BRAY-DEEEEEEEEEEE clap,clap, clap-clap-clap!!!!!
