I'm a die-hard Ravens fan but I have to go with Carolina..........

someone actually voted for philadelphia haha. just cuz they beat dallas doesn't make them good. it makes them lucky. remember this is the team that tied cincinnati.
anyways to get back on topic. i say the superbowl will either be.......
tennessee vs. carolina
or
indianapolis vs. new york giants

Scott, I love this question but as a big time football nut, there are so many variables to look at to bring it down to one team right now. but if I go with just a gut feeling I would go with Indy in the AFC. With Peyton and the rest of the team healthy again they are dangerous. As for the NFC I'm not sure witch way to go all of these teams have a shot it just depends on which team shows up to play they have all been all over the place this year.
-
its whoever gets hot. Im ruling out Atlanta, Miami, Arizona and Baltimore. Minny is blaaah.
The Giants are missing a few ingredients and I dont trust Kerry Collins.
FInals: Indy v Pitt and Philly v Carolina.

Yep, I agree with Tom....

I picked my Titans so because I want them to win, they probably won't LOL! I'd love to see a TN-NYG SB but 2 #1's haven't met in a long time or maybe ever - not really up to date on NFL trivia. I don't really pay attention to the NFC so right now I'll have to go with John's Panthers to lose to my Titans in the SB. Sorry John!

Looks like you can take the Colts off it. Just a little upset here this morning.

I should have gone with Tom's answer

Awwwwww Mike, you know I love ya' (in an "arm around shoulder, reach for eighth kamikaze shot / beer chaser combo, glued to seats of sports bar" kinda way). O:O

Let me make myself perfectly clear,, as of last night I will pick the RAVENS, as just about every "expert" has picked the winner of the Titans - Ravens game to take the Super Bowl. I wouldn't have picked them to do anything like they've done this year,, lets be realistic,, who the heck was Joe Flacco? I figure we would have to put up with Boller,, I was hoping for Troy,, but I think we have something here with Flacco. This RAVENS team is now a TEAM, not a strong defense to keep us in the game, and hope the offense doesn't screw it up. They defense now believes in the offense, the fans now believe in the offense, if we have a "weak" point now it is the lack of experience of the QB,, but come on,, you can't really still look at him as a "rookie",,, by definition,, yea,, but by poise, play, and maturity since game one,,, no way Jose' If it all ended with the Dallas game and no wild card,, I would have been ok with that,, if it end with the 'Fins,, oh well,, if the Titans would have beat us,, (they should have with the way they moved the ball) fine,, but the RAVENS do what they do best,,, somehow,, make it a win. So I will pick them to take the Super Bowl, if they lose next week,,, or in the SB I am still happier than a pig in slop. ;D :D ;) :px

ya Ed Reed and Ray Lewis are pretty amazing on defense as well as mason as receiever. i do think flaccos a little overrated though. even though hes played well in the playoffs.

Trust me GHOST..... Flacco is NOT over rated. I've wathced every Ravens game this year and this guy's maturity and poise has increased in every game. He has one of the best arms in the League and he will only get better as he gets more experienced.
If you look at the stats for his first seven or eight games and compare them to all games since then, the difference is remarkable. And that was when they stopped babying him so much and started to open up the offense.
This kid is a star in the making. If you don't believe me, go on line and look at some of the quotes that Tennessee's defensive linemen made about him after yesterday's game.

If anything he doesn't get the full respect he deserves, I'm NOT saying Ryan doesn't deserve it,, but Flacco not getting a single vote???

yeh ur right guys flacco is baltomores new quality QB.. its weird to say cause we havent had a good one for longer then a season...
but its really down to this last game here Pittsburg and Baltimore... this is my superbowl right here, getting the revenge the ravens want after 2 super close games with the steelers, and doing so by beating them in the afc championship is all i could want...
hell if the ravens make it to the super bowl thats just gonna be like having my cake and eating it too!
as for NFC id really like to see the eagles come out on top over arizona, just for the fact this may be the only chance i will get to see baltimore and philly play eachother in the super bowl... my dads a philly fan and im a bmore fan... yeh thats right alot of trash talkin goin on there :)
-
Well................
Flacco looked just like the rookie that he is. Pittsburgh should have beaten the Ravens far worse than they did. Thank Bruce Arians and a bunch of dropped passes.
I was mildly hopeful for an all-PA Super Bowl. The Eagles blew it again. Ed $pendell's favorite team performed just like $pendell has as governor.
The Cardinals are a formidable team, their 9-7 record notwithstanding. Larry Fitzgerald - and ex-Pitt star - is the best WR in the NFL. Warner looks like he found the Fountain of Youth. Whisenhunt and Grimm coached for the Steelers. Todd Haley's dad worked for the Steelers. The Cards have a few ex-Steelers. Should be a good one.
-
are we giving the 7 pts to the Cardinals?
-
I would have never thought the cards from my beloved NFC West (..go hawks!) would make it to the Super Bowl.
Just shows you how tough the NFC West was, guys. hehe... Apparently, we were only worried about conference play. lol

same as the steelers from my beloved AFC NORTH. (im a cleveland browns fan so this is heartbreaking)
-
Go Cowboys!!!! wait...what happened, I thought the world's most talented team was sure to get in. :/O
See you all next year.
-
Ahhh what a heart breaker of a game last night for the Ravens... beaten by the Steelers...
but you know the steelers out played the ravens from the start so im not very suprised about the outcome
maybe next year baltimore fans :(
-
I'm going to pick the Cardinals to upset the Steelers in the SB !! :o

I would have liked to see the Ravens in the Super Bowl,,, But I am fine with this season. Hopefully our defense doesn't all leave with Rex. Jets fans you are getting a good man.

I CANNOT cheer for the Steelers................... Go CARDS!!!!!!
-
yeh im sry to hear about rex... but i also heard that the cowboys are intrested in picking up ray lewis! now i know he has been slwing down the past year or two but if he left there goes the emotional backbone of the team right there
btw go cards upset them steelers
-
Would love to see the cards knock off the steelers, it will be a tough fight but maybe those angry looking cardinals will do it.
