I hope the Packers annihilate the Giants.

The media if the Giants stop another undefeated team is not something I want to listen to.

Also, I'd welcome the Packers taking an undefeated season all the way, just so those obnoxious twits from the '72 Dolphins finally shut up.

Obviously, it'd be better if it'd been the '07 Pats, but oh well.

HAHAHA, still bitter I see!

Packers are going to have their hands full with the Saints, I think. The Saints are starting to peak and are getting players back from the injured list and look really dangerous, especially at RB which will give teams fits.

My idea of a glorious game would be Saints versus Packers.

It might happen for the NFC Conference, and what a memorable conference that would be.

I think the NFC may be building up another long streak of domination in the Super Bowl too. The AFC just seems to be really weak these days.

Of course I am! It'd be like the Colts going into the Superbowl at 18-0 and losing to the Jets. You'd be bitter too.

The Saints shredded NYG Monday by air and by ground, and made it look easy. The Packers defense is really good, but I think the ground will kill them.

Good chance of it.

The Patriots, if we'd just paid or started paying for top-level defensive talent, could get it done for another few years, but once Tom leaves, we're going back down. Even if Mallett is good, I don't see him being a second coming of Brady.

The Ravens offense is awful, and Flacco just isn't getting it. The Steelers defense seems to be losing its magic, and the offense isn't good enough to carry them through every game reliably.

And after those big three teams, the AFC is a joke.

None of the AFC's top teams are a match for the Packers or Saints. Yes, anything can happen so it is always possible that they could win, but I think if you pitted each of the AFC's teams against the Packers or Saints 10 times, the NFC would come out on top 8 times.

Lulz. Vick of last year could be a prototype for QB's... but he can't bottle the magic again, and besides, his career will burn out fast, he gets beat to hell in or out of the pocket.

Bu...bu...bu...but..Vick is ELITE!!! They said so on ATOT last year and I got crucified for saying he was only an average QB!

Pack Pats... yeah.
Saints Pats... yeah.
Pack Steel... already saw it!
Saints Steel... yeah.
Pack Ravens... yeah.
Saints Ravens... yeah.

Okay, I agree with you.

Bitter?

I'm bitter that Polian didn't let them finish out the regular season 16-0 a couple of years ago, because they would've easily done it had Manning and company not been benched.

I'm bitter that Polian ignored the offensive line and kept our idiot defensive coordinator, because there is no way the Saints should've beaten the Colts in SB 44 especially after the Colts jumped out to a lead and were kicking their asses in the first quarter.

I'm bitter that Polian and Irsay decided to hand the franchise to Polian's son Chris as GM and an inept buffoon like Caldwell as coach and have wasted the career of possibly the best QB ever to play.

Yes, I'm bitter.
