Pats vs Colts

Okay let's get the discussion started. Will the rested Patriots have it easy with the emotionally charged Colts? Does the NFL hope for a Manning/Luck or a Manning/Brady showdown for the Championship game? Both are intriguing storylines.

Early forcast calls for 40 and showers so weather may not be an issue. Colts gave up 44 against KC, can Brady pick them apart for as many? Will Luck's lucky bounces make them the team of destiny this year?

What say you all?

Probably be your typical Pats nail biter....won by a Field Goal in the waning seconds or trying to stop Indy from doing the same.

I'm with TDF. Don't turn it off at half time. Vegas is spotting the Colts 7.5 pts

Weather: 40s and possible rain

That was a crazy game Sat. Not sure you could learn much about the Colts from that game.

I think we can prevent them from scoring 40+. Them scoring 45 was a fluke. I think we can score 40 and have done so often . I lean towards us putting on a big scoring performance and holding them in the low 30's.

If Indy plays like they did, we'll have our work cut out for us. Defense just dealt another devastating blow with the loss of Spikes for the rest of the year... Brady and boys better be on their A game!!

that arctic chill might be a factor Bill...
as it pushes eastward with memphis Tennessee saying
they're going to have the coldest temperatures in 100 years
so that's a big deal...


what's your take on it from your end...

this coming weekend is in between arctic pulses, the Ice Queen will be back shortly.

BTW, it was 16 degrees in Pensacola this morning. Lots of negative weather vibes out there today

Great start!


How about the Seattle game.... Oddsmakers took the line from 8 to 9. And took all that Seattle money, or had a push at worst.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

My record remains intact. If I feel they will loose and state it they always win. I do it for myself. Call it a superstition. Kind of like turning the channel during important field goals. I never watch important field goals the tension kills me.
