NFL 2016 Playoffs - Super Bowl LI (Patriots v Falcons)

[Blacky]

GG bequeathed me with his mod powers AND clairvoyance

Discussions in here please

Try to keep it civil

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Is this going to be open? s**t prediction. Packers are champs this year

 

[Blacky]

It's been my prediction for weeks

 

[GreyCrow]

Patriots to win for Tom to be able to go for his 5th

Roger Goodell to fall ill before the game and hand over his duties to someone else

 

[Dirty Bird]

If gg had made this thread. Id have given up already.
But new moderators = new hope

I had a dream a week or so ago

Super bowl 51 falcons defeat patriots
Super bowl 52 falcobs defeat 16-0 patriots
Super bowl 53 16-0 patriots defeat 16-0 falcons with brady retiring.

I usually dream of women

It's been my prediction for weeks

Every Super Bowl winner EVER has had at least 24 takeaways on the season. Every single one

The Packers are the only team remaining who has that. The Packers are winning the SB dude

 

[GreyCrow]

I will pick Falcons this week but by gaw its hard to ignore Rodgers great ability to win and throw pinpoint passes at critical moments.

If Brady goes undefeated as a 41 yo I give up

That's what reality is for

Potential uniform matchups (NFC the home team this year)

I wish the Falcons wore their Black throwback.

Hate the Packers/Steelers matchup. Reckon the others are all pretty good.

order:

Falcons/Steelers
Falcons/Patriots
Packers/Patriots
Packers/Steelers

The "home" team can opt to wear white unis IIRC

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

The "home" team can opt to wear white unis IIRC

Denver did it last year

You're right. I can't see either NFC team doing so though.

Packers could, since we have had to play 2 road games. we almost did in 2010.

Fair call. They wouldn't be the first Super Bowl home team to stick with a "Road Warriors" theme.

Is it too late to point out I used the term Potential

The team in white has won like 10 of the last 11 Super Bowl's or some s**t

Ed: 11/12 it is

 

[aussiedude]

And Packers are the only team to win using color unis.

Which is why Denver ran screaming from the orange

Brain fade too hot

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Which is why Denver ran screaming from the orange

not really

Not settled on who I'd most like to see get through to the SB and win

Atlanta haven't won before so it'd be nice to see them get up and win to continue the 2016 trend of unlikely winners. That said the Falcons aren't a team that particularly appeal to me possibly because their lack of FTA games means I don't see them play much

New England have had plenty of success with Brady and belichick but I don't get the hate for them despite their evil empire reputation.

Love watching Rodgers play and have always kinda liked the packers so I'm leaning to them over Atlanta

I sometimes think I picked the wrong AFC north team to follow all those years ago and despite the rivalry with the bengals I have a soft spot for the steelers and Big Ben. Hoping they get through over the pats but I think that's going to be unlikely at foxboro

Leaves me in the position where I can watch the last 3 games without caring who wins and just hoping for close games that aren't decided by a ref error

To be fair, they get a few extra games to get a few more picks.
