Elway did it. Ray just did it. Maybe Manning can do it to. Going out as Superbowl Champ.

I don't have either of those teams though. I wanna say NFC West will get back in. Either Seahawks or Niners. For the AFC I think it'll come down to Patriots/Ravens yet again too even though they could have problems with their contracts and stuff.

i just can't get over that the ravens won it all this season. can't say i remember anyone talking about them in the preseason. it was all packers, 49ers and patriots. this 49ers team should have a great chance again next season, they've got a complete team. but that play calling on the last drive was very weak.

but warner or bruschi couldn't do it. i think peyton's days of playing in super bowls are done unfortunately. this was as good of a season as any, and he choked per usual.

Those are two rando's to add in. They never claimed it was their last year playing before losing their respective super bowls and both played the year after anyway. But I do appreciate you mentioning Bruschi with those HOF'ers.

Forgot Bettis did it as well. But iirc he kinda decided on the podium right then and there after they won rather than before the post-season, didn't he?

Either way, agreed on your point on Manning.

Since their last SB win. Brady has led them to four AFC championships, two of which he won, and the two AFC Championship games they lost, both the Colts and Ravens went on to win the whole thing.

He did struggle for sure though in 09 and 10 against Balt and Jets in the divisional rounds.

How funny would it be if the Ravens go back to the Superbowl next year just so Flacco can play in a "retarted" superbowl?

I predict Ravens in a blow out, then the lights and power will inexplicably go off. Thereby giving the 49ers time to settle in and start playing better. They will catch up and get closer. But in the end, the Ravens early scoring drives will prove to be too many points to overcome.

Bengals vs Vikings

Vikings win with AP having 20 dominate games.

Way too early, gotta wait for FA and the draft to see how teams shape up.

If I had to pick right now I'd go Broncos/Seahawks. But if RG3 is back Week 1 at 100% I may go with the homer pick and go Skins.

SEAHAWKS!!

especially if they get Revis, another DB that will put hands and physically man you up like the other seahawk DBs.

Falcons vs. Patriots

When we fix our pass rush problems (Draft) and if Tony G comes back we'll be set, if Tony retires then we can address our TE need in FA

Of course, I wouldn't mind the Bears...

49ers and Patriots if they add to the D, which I don't see why they won't.

i don't see anybody beating niners in nfc, maybe packers if they could fix their run defense quickly. denver or pats from afc, steelers is a dark horse.
