The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

I wanted Minnesota to get to the Super Bowl, but, seeing how they were taken apart by the Eagles I think it was a blessing they never got there.
I actually think that the Eagles can win this. Nick Foles has been pretty impressive post season.

So everyone wants Philly to win, but where are you putting your money (if anywhere)?

I want the Patriots to win.

You're dead to me.

They are cheating ****** favoured by the NFL/Refs and their owner is a racist, fascist, Trump-supporting ******.

Which doesn't really differentiate them from the rest of the league.

However, the rest is valid


Out of Boston loyalty, I want them to win (despite my Raiders being the victims of "The Tuck")

Think Man Utd in the 90's and 2000's:  unlikable manager, seem to get all the calls from referees, obnoxious fan base.

More like Chelsea. Had no fans until their sudden success, now all the glory hunters like them.

They’ve also been caught out cheating on a few occasions, but carry on regardless.

Good start to the Superbowl, especially if you're betting against the Pats.

[PeterWithesShin]

Like UKRS i'm New England for the Boston connection, but not really fussed. I just want a high scoring close game.

[olaftab]

Eagles just look a better team and I think they will win it so I will go to bed after the first quarter.
