Ok, time to escape all things PC...:

I think I know how David (Purg) will vote since he is a long time Patriots fan, but who will it be tomorrow night?

Normally I'd say something like I have no dog in that fight, but that's acquired too much literal meaning lately. Anyway, even though I have a lot of respect for Elway, I never lived in Denver, whereas I did live in the Boston area for a while. So I root for the Pats.

With that out of the way, Brady is having another incredible year. Tebow is interesting and has a bright future. Funny how he's getting to be so popular. I guess winning games will do that. Pats 35, Broncs 27.

I believe in miracles...Go Tebow...

Patriots fan die hard since 1970. So am I biased, yep.

We already wasted the Broncos in Denver a few weeks ago. The Broncos barely beat the Steelers, with Big Ben all but crippled, and they were playing at home! It took the right flip of the coin in overtime to give the ball to Denver, and Tebow got in another miracle pass.

That didn't work for Denver against the Pats. Brady is the superior quarterback, and Denver will not be able to stop the Pats from another high scoring game at home in Foxboro.

Go Patriots.

I was born a Browns fan but came to Colorado in the early 70s and stayed. I was skeptical of Tebow and had called him McDaniels final revenge but the games have been fun to watch and he's winning me over.

OK. I'm a Gator. Watched Tim Tebow win two National Championships, One Heisman Trophy. Saw his very first play as a Bronco where he ran over two linebackers, knocking one out, and scored a TD. I BELIEVE. Go Broncos.

Patriots by 10.

But Tebow sure is fun to watch

I have liked Tebow since the first time I watched him play. As a lifetime Steeler fan, I would have preferred that his success had taken a slightly different path. As it is, I now hope that he runs the table even though all the experts say that is impossible.

Pats 38 - 21

Of course, i'll have to watch it on our Jet Blue Boston to Las Vegas flight.

Good thoughts to all.

Can't stand Tebow. One of the only positives of being away from NFL this year. I think he's a mediocre player at best by NFL standards and that if it wasn't for all that religious stuff he wouldn't be getting much press. Patriots are going to destroy Denver. I bet on them even with the 14.5 handicap.

I'm hoping in a Giants miracle.

Think the Ravens will win it all but Saints could also win it.

i had a sneaking feeling that religion -- a taboo subject here -- would get mentioned.

Ed,

You mean "teboo", right?

davidg - one of the rare times we agree! So sick of hearing about Miracle Boy Tebow, he's had a lot of pure luck going for him, plain and simple. He's not even remotely in the same class or level of expertise as my man Tom Brady. Patriots all the way.
I am expecting a Patriots vs. Saints superbowl, be a heck of a matchup with two great quarterbacks. Though, wouldn't hurt my feelings if it ends up being 49ers vs Patriots.

I am expecting an easy win from the Ravens, and I can't see the Giants upsetting Greenbay. Just my take.

As I said, Tebow is a lot of fun to watch. How good is he? He is far from one of the top QBs, but he does add a dimension to the game, kind of like Mike Vick.

As a youngster, in NY we had YA Tittle. He was a great escape artist. Even better was Fran tarkington of the Vikings. I think Tebow is just as good in terms of avoiding tackles. He is better in terms of running ability. As an overall QB, he is not even close to any of those people, but he might get there.

I agree -- I am sick of the religious part. I can do without that stuff.

OK -- anybody want to bet on the over/under in terms of when this thread will get locked?

Mel -- i wonder who would be more offended by your comparison:  tebow or vick cool ?

ed

Posted 1/14/2012 6:00 PM (GMT -5)
I am not a fan of either, but I am pretty sure it will be be the Patriots by a significant margin. I can't think of any reason that the Broncos can possibly win.
Posted 1/14/2012 6:16 PM (GMT -5)
hmm.........what a contrast mentioned......tebow the virgin vs. mike "dog-killer-felon" vicks?
Posted 1/14/2012 7:19 PM (GMT -5)
David:

Yes, but as QBs, there is some similarity.

As people, nope!

Very subjective Mel, but your opinion is welcomed. Brady is well tried and tested, and depends on his abilities and experience, tebow is young, and has had too much sheer luck on his side in my opinion. He could be groomed to be an excellent QB in the future, if the Bronco's decide to keep him. The magic will end tonight for him, I strongly believe this.

The Denver Donkeys...They tend to choke when the big chips are on the table...There is no sport in professional sports any more...It's all about the MONEY...
Posted 1/14/2012 10:19 PM (GMT -5)
42 to 7, barely into the 3rd quarter, I rest my case!
Posted 1/14/2012 10:20 PM (GMT -5)
I picked the Patriots by 10.

Looks like I was off!

Heh...heh

The Patriots can now tee off on Tebrow 2nd half!

T-boy can pray away his tear drops on his flight back to Denver. Had his chance, muffed it.
Posted 1/14/2012 10:38 PM (GMT -5)
They choke....Just like Denver's sorry baseball team..
