The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

[ADVILLAFAN]

Its a strange superbowl really.
I mean, look at the penultimate week of the regular season.
Titans battered Steelers
Patriots humiliated Cardinals.
Got to fancy steelers though. Dont fancy Fitz to get a lot of room.
Low scoring.
Pomolomu for MVP

Personally I think polamalu's a better player  :-

Steelers have to be favourites, Defence wins games.

not sure if the news has made it across the pond, but they cancelled the Superbowl this year...

Titans didn't batter the Steelers, it was a 3 point game until the last few minutes.  This coming after the Steelers had just beaten Baltimore for the second time and the Cowboys and Patriots before that as part of the hardest schedule ever handed to any team in NFL history.

The Steelers defence is one of the best ever, if the offence fires on the day, they will win - simple as that.

Titans were the first team to get 300 points against you.
Won by 17, forced 4 turnovers, compared to 0.
Id say it was fairly compehensive

you know that they get to play the Bengals and the Browns twice every single year...

Outside of the division ;-)  Although the first Cleveland game was tough and really any divisonal game is going to have an extra bite to it.

If any of you still dream of playing in the NFL, here's your chance

This reminds me of when Max Boyce trained with the Dallas Cowboys

I can still remember the start of one of his poems from the TV programme....

"This is the tale of Too Tall Jones, he likes the sound of cracking bones............." (or something close to those words)

Maybe if Jerry Jones didn't treat the team lie a joke, the players might actually care..

But hey, invite HBO, ABC and ESPN into the locker room.  The more distractions the better!

Anyone buy tickets to the Patriots/Bucs game at Wembley?

They went on sale Thursday, but managed to easily pick up 3 tickets in block 544 this morning. £55 each.

Yep, but I'm in the posh seats

[VillaZogmariner]

I think the team in red will win 42-12

Superbowl's on Sunday

Here's one advert that you won't see during the game

Also, I can't understand why the "LFL" doesn't get equal coverage

[sali,salifou]

Whats everyone's call for the big game then?
I'm going steelers by 10, unfortunately

[UK Redsox]

I'm hoping for a Steelers victory.

I have a "Roethlisberger" jersey that I bought at Heinz Field before he'd even played a game. (I might wear it to the Wigan game. So if you see a bald bloke in a "Big Ben" top, it may be me).

Also I dislike Kurt "Holier that thou" Warner and his weird wife. This not only due to their general bible-bashing but also because of their specific campaigning against stem-cell research.

Larry Fitzgerald Jr is good though

[ADVILLAFAN]

Hoping the Cardinals win, as they've been around for so long and always been rubbish. It would be a huge shock.

Think the Steelers will win comfortably though.
