Rep Power: 6  | True that . . .and they do it with alot of "no-name" people too, not the big stars of the game. Their coaching & defense is gonna get them far. They are gonna win that division too. |

Rep Power: 6  | Na dog....the hardest div is NFC west without a doubt, with St. Louis and Niners.....and NOW to add seattle....damn.
The Pats are nice, I wish Ty Law ran back that last interception for a TD that woulda set it off
The pats will make the AFC champsionship no doubt.....KC might beat em tho....i dunno cuz i never really thought even after 7-0 an 8-0 that KC were any good.....
My prediction is AFC - Pats v KC (or INDY but got no D)
NFC - PHilly v CAR or STL
Dog....how wild is the NFC shapin wit no TB.....i go for the niners so im fukin pissed....loosin to Arizona? they dont deserve to be in the playoffs.....
I bet $300 at my local TAB on the niners for monday |

Rep Power: 7  | The AFC East is the toughest division in football. With four teams that can be a major threat each and every week, how can it now. The Pats, Dolphins, Bills, and Jets can make the playoffs every year, if they weren't in the same division.
But congrats to the Pats on their big win. Well deserved, even though Quincy Carter played terrible. |

Rep Power: 6  | The NFC West isn't the toughest, with the inconsistency of San Fran., Seattle lost to the Cowboys. St. Louis is the standout in that division.
AFC Championship - Titans vs. Chiefs
NFC Championship - Carolina vs. Rams
The Niners do have a shot though, but I think that it has to be Rattay leading them not Garcia. |

Rep Power: 6  | St. Louis blows though... A high octane offense, and supposedly rock-solid defense just BARELY beat, in my opinion, the worst team in football today... The Chicago Bears..
The Bears have the league low in sacks... The Ram's O-Line, with Pro-Bowler's Orlando Pace and Kyle Turley allowed THREE SACKS... The Bears leading sack artist, has 1.5 for the fucking season...
Bulger doesn't have the protection Warner did... and regardless of how potent Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt are, getting hit while throwing leads to turn-over's... which The Rams have been giving a lot of....
The only team that stands a chance on both sides of the ball, against any team, in any situtation... is The Tenn. Titans... McNair is playing like Super McNair... The D-Line is getting amazing pressure, and The LB's add an even deeper threat with their ability to both rush, and play good coverage...
The Titans secondary hasn't been stellar stat-wise... but they get the job done...
Carolina won't make it, because Chris Weinke just plain sucks... No Super Bowl has ever been won due strictly to stellar defense... with the exception being The 1985 Chicago Bears... and I make that statement because Richard Dent was the MVP... and I was doing the Super Bowl shuffle while in the womb...

Rep Power: 7  | ^^I Disagree. Why the Panthers can make it to the Super Bowl: Stephen Davis: This is the one weapon that Carolina didn't have last year. Davis is averaging 4.9 yards a carry and has already got 1084 yards this season with an addition of 6 TD's. Jake Delhomme: Delhomme has started 9 games for the Panthers this year. He has thrown for 1988 yards with 10 touchdown passes. He also lead the Panthers on a huge drive with less then two minutes to go on the Tampa Bay defense. Why the Titans won't make it to the Super Bowl: Indianapolis Colts: The Titans won't even win their division. The Colts offense is too strong and their defense is starting to pick it up. The combination of Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne, and Edgerrin James is deadly. Dwight Freeny is also starting to pick it up on the Colts defensive line. Playoff Predictions: (Winners in Bold) AFC:
Denver Broncos vs. New England Patriots
Baltimore Ravens vs. Tennesee Titans
Tennesee Titans vs. Kansas City Cheifs
New England Patriots vs. Indianapolis Colts Indianapolis Colts vs. Kansas City Cheifs NFC:
Seattle Seahawks vs. Dallas Cowboys New Orleans Saints vs. Minnesota Vikings
Dallas Cowboys vs. St. Louis Rams
New Orleans Saints vs. Carolina Panthers
St. Louis Rams vs. Carolina Panthers Super Bowl: Carolina Panthers vs. Indianapolis Colts

Rep Power: 6  | ^ Ay thesauras there some funny points bout the bears D line....aha 1.5 sacks thats bad man.....
ALB nice pints bro.....but i think ya wrong wit the Ravens, yea they got a chance cuz AFC north is shit, bu the Bengals might do it, even though they ain't good....
I think if the ravens make the playoffs.....win the wild card, then loose in the divisional....i think theyre made up purely of their D, and Lewis CAN get shut down by big D's which they will need to play against to get where they want (eg. Titans) The ravens need an O line and....when all motors running...will be a strong force.
The titans.....what can i say....in the top three right now in my mind....and they get a good couple of bounces in key games...they'll win the superbowl....I think they shouldve won it years ago, when they lost that SB in the dying seconds of the game...The year after that they shoulda won it. The titans will get what they deserve either this year or next year no doubt.
Kansas City?....PLease....i think they are the same old kansas city from 4 5 years ago, good....but not real good....only reason people are saying they are a big chance is cuz of the BAND WAGON BOOGEY.....KC is not a superbowl team! When you got the likes of Indy...manning, harrison, wayne...we all know the story....TITANS.....big D...air mcNair...eddie george on game is ill........when ya have teams like that IN the same conference.....they are far from their dreams....You can't rely on a fukin kick returner to win ya games, sure special teams is crucial....but damn.....some of the stuff ive heard from KC players mouths and media hype.....KC are fukin ignorant.
NFC west....sure i over-emphasised abit on that one, but put yaself in a niners uniform this year compared to 5 years ago, when the saints and falcons where like 'free wins'......mayber the niners where never good? they jus had free wins from the likes of Atlanta, Carolina, and New Orleans......Which (fortunatly for niners fans and the team itself) are all in the NFC south now compared to 5 years ago.
Another comment i found interesting.....Rattay over Garcia? A.L.B wat are ya view on this one? I ain't havin a shot at ya, cuz i dont even like Garcia, an im a niners fan, but if i had my way, rattay woudln't be starting over garcia, if garcia was healthy......
Ay thesaurus.....wats this aroun the horn shit? Im in watever it is bro....cuz i love talkin bout sports....i'll prolly only be ill talkin bout football an basketball tho....don't mind baseball...hate hockey |

Rep Power: 6  | wat bout D point.?
Titans D line - carter, haynesworth, n kearse 4 in the playoffs
bulluck is a nice LB, showed he can play in the last few weeks
Dyson an rolle on either side, rolle IS one of the best CBs in the league
Got respect for Schultsers wen played for niners....
Indy?...there is NO-ONE on their D...im surprised their not givin up 40 a night....Dwight Feeney is a force on the line, but thats about it....There a very young lineup, so the superbowl isnt on the agenda this year...in my mind.....two years from now....if their D keeps the chemistry up....and plays out and the way the organisation wants them to (no major injuries, no beefs).....the colts will definately be a force to be reckoned with in 2005 2006. 2004.......nup........point......i will be watchin the playoffs bro.....an it aint gonna work for em |

Rep Power: 6  | ^No one on the Colts D? . . .I supposed you haven't heard of Dwight Freeney, is in the top 3 if not leading the NFL in sacks right now. I just had to say that.
But yo . . .it was the funniest thing when Fred Taylor ran over Mike Doss the other week ( I don't really like Doss cause of Ohio State beating Miami last year).
Okay . . .This is my take on the whole Rattay over Garcia issue. First Garcia is 33 and Rattay only about 24, and as you know Garcia likes to move around and is prone to get hit & beat up. Rattay the pocket passer is making everyone happy. In their game Monday T.O. got involved early and easily went over 100 yds. recieving. Rattay is getting his RB's involved. Fred Beasley caught a TD pass out the backfield, Kevin Barlowe almost had 100 yds. rushing, coming up 2 short before he went out with a concussion & he even got Garrison Hearst about 50 on the ground. Rattay is making his team better & he is doing so without making mistakes. When Garcia plays b/c of his moving around you saw how frustrated T. Owens was on the sideline he wasn't getting the ball. Plus, the important thing Rattay has won all both his starts. |
