Superbowl Predictions?

Now that we know the final four teams, let's see who can pick the ultimate winner!

Here's my take:

AFC Championship Game: As much as I don't like New England, they are a playing magnificent football. The Colts are also playing very good football. While I'd rather see the Colts with the AFC Championship, I don't think they can beat the experience and explosiveness of Brady/Gronkowski. I pick NE to win this one 38-24.

NFC Championship Game: I don't have anything against either team, and think they are both great football teams on both sides of the ball. That said, with Aaron Rodgers hobbled by his calf, he's a sitting duck when the pocket collapses, as it is bound to do next weekend. Seattle has the Wilson/Wilson combo and Lynch, and with Russell Wilson's great mobility and accurate throwing, even while on the run, I have to give this game to Seattle. I think it'll be a lower scoring game than the AFC game. Probably 21-17 in favor of the birds.

Superbowl: This could be quite the match up. As good as Seattle's defense is, New England just has so many offensive weapons that I don't think they will be able to shut them down. The same can be said about New England's defense shutting down Seattle's offense. I think it's going to end up being hard hitting game that will be ultimately decided by a 4th quarter drive. I'm going to give this one to New England by a final score of New England 30, Seattle 28.

So there you have it.

I'm calling New England to win it all.
 
I have no idea, but if the Pats are in, I probably won't watch. I would like to see the Packers vs the Colts, but it will probably be the Pats and the Hawks.
 
I would much rather see the Colts vs the Packers. I'm just not sure that either of them is the better team left in their conference right now.
 
AFC Championship: I would love to see the Colts win (sorry NE fans), but I think that NE just has too complete of a team. I do think it will be a very close game because Luck is just that good of a QB that he can put that team on his back. But NE wins because of the home field advantage. 31 - 27.

NFC Championship: I am an unabashed Aaron Rodgers fanboi, but he has no mobility and Seattle has too good of a pass rush. Plus they have the better 'D'. Again - I think this is a close game but I see Seattle winning 27 - 24.

Superbowl: So NE - Seattle. It is very hard to repeat as SB champions. But Seattle pulls it off. They are peaking at the right time and they really do not have a weakness as a team. But this will be a nail biter - Belichick is a great coach and NE will be ready. Final score Seattle 34 - NE 31. And this game may go into OT.
 
No predictions. And don't tell me the odds. Wilson and co. need to prepare, and go 1 and 1 on this coming sunday. Then we shall see what is next. How things look on paper doesn't matter if you don't show up to play. I hope Unger's ankle is better as the O line is a big deal, and I hope that our D line has strong efforts to support the efforts of the rest of the D. It all works together.

Your avoidance is duly noted. Probably will be tough in your neck of the woods. But I bet even I would be a bit overwhelmed by Seahawkness if was in Seattle right now, at least on a work day where I was not in tail-gate mode.
 
At my age, I have gotten pretty good at it. I don't mind the game, though I'd never watch it. The hype, however, is highly annoying and infiltrates everything, even NPR.
 
AFC Championship - Pats 41 Colts 20

NFC Champioship - Seahawks 24 Packers 20

Superbowl - Pats 28 Seahawks 14

I have been less impressed with most of the commercials the last few years. Maybe I set my expectations too high. In any case, I have not seen the same level of cleverness that was exhibited a few years ago. And yes, there will be beer.
 
I'm predicting the Pats will break my heart yet again and somehow that foam-faced Eli Manning will be involved.
