Yes, these are 2 teams that blow out other teams, but ironically this sometimes leads to low scoring games.

over-under is currently 58 or 59, depending on where you bet.

Oh look, another NFC South team with a big stadium bill to pay for makes the SB.

What happened with the Chargers and their desire to build a new stadium? They should have won a Super Bowl by now. The league is pretty upset that they are moving to LA. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/n...hargers-wants-them-to-move-back-to-san-diego/

They should have been allowed to win last years so the stadium ballot issues could have been passed.

I think I like the Falcons at this point.

Falcons won't just play zone defense and let Brady lob passes all day long.

Yeah you cannot beat a good QB by doing that these days .

 

[CPUd]

That TD from the flea flicker, Brady was literally just standing there waiting for his receiver to get into the end zone.

Rogers is a much better qb than Brady and it worked there.

I think that was your point but you forgot the emotithingy.

Roethlisberger considering retirement at 35? http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ttsburgh-steelers-future-consider-all-options

Ben Roethlisberger has been sacked 505 times, including the playoffs, since coming into the NFL in 2004. That's 123 more times than anyone else in the NFL in that span.

(next being Philip Rivers with 382)

He has three years left on a five year deal and is due $19 million next season.

Or maybe he is just frustrated by how they lost this week.

Who is the best QB? DC taxi cab driver and Steelers fan.

 

[oyarde]

Seahawks defensive assistant quitting , Packers offensive assistant quitting .

NE had the 6th best pass protection offense based on sack percentage. Atl had the 7th worst pass rush based on sack percentage. I guess Atlanta is going to pull a pass rush out of their ass like you just did with your comment.

I don't know about Zip's football knowledge, but his ass is where he gets most of his political and economics comments.
