I think what it really shows is what a team can do when there is no pressure or expectations. They weren't even supposed to be there, right? With seemingly nothing to lose, the Cardinals just let it all hang out.

Ravens, Cardinals, Eagles... is this the year of the bird or what? My SB pick is toast...

Chargers up by 7 quickly.

Well, the league's best defense now has an energized offense...

Go Steelers!

Yea, Yea, Yea I know. I couldn't believe that the 2 teams I picked were out that fast. I kind of had my doubts with the Titans winning so I was edgy with that guess, but I thought the Panthers would beat the Cards for sure. Well I think I was 2-2. I am pretty sure I guessed Steelers winning but I'm not sure. The Hard guess would be the Ravens vs. Steelers game. Anyway, I guess now for the Championship game I see:

Ravens Beat Steelers 17-14

Eagles Beat Cards 30-14

Superbowl: Battle of the Birds

Eagles beat Ravens 20-17

My superbowl picks are still alive!!

Superbowl pick:

Pittsburgh 24

Philadelphia 14

Go RAVENS!.

I'm going to have to go with the All Pennsylvannia Superbowl. My prediction:

Eagles 7, Steelers 17

Hmm... I'm anxious to see more predictions

Hey, Spitvemon... what do you think? You have to be excited/confident about the Eagles. They've looked good.

ENOUGH about the STEELERS ALREADY!! They SUCK!! They are CIRCLING THE BOWL on their way to the SEWER!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!! Seriously though, I really, really HATE THEM!! Ben WORTHLESSBOOGER is a PUNK-A$$ CRYBABY!! WAAAAAAAAHH!! :mad: Okay, I got that out of my system now... picks? Did someone say picks?

Wow KC, tell us how you really feel ;)

Excellent way to get attention... I suppose.

Ok, somebody had something to get out of their system huh? Well, I guess we will find out in a couple of weeks who is the best. Does anybody ever think that it doesn't determine much? I mean a team could have a bad week or they could have beat a team in the playoffs that another team didn't. Just things like that. Sometimes teams don't always play the best, so sometimes the superbowl doesn't always determine the best.

It doesn't necessarily determine the best. It's true of all sports. It's about who gets hot at the right time, who plays better under pressure, who has the least injuries, etc.

That said - the playoff system in professional sports is great for creating excitement and I wouldn't want to see it changed.

Very well put JJ. I wouldn't change anything if I could either. I love the excitement in football. I played a little in my day. Haha. I think I brought luck with me. When I was at one school they won close to 70 straight season games, then I transferred schools and I played for another team and we went undefeated. We were the first team to go undefeated in over 30 years. Then the school I was at lost their first game after I moved. Haha. I miss those days.

Okay, I'll reluctantly give the Steelers credit for an outstanding 3rd quarter Sunday. But I still hate 'em. Clocksuckers.

It may seem like a rivalry, but what you really sense is HATE!:D

Yeah, being from Pittsburgh (way back) I remember, but I don't hate Cincy.

I don't hate Pittsburgh, just the Steelers. Any true Bengals fan does!:p

Or the Bengals...

I used to be a "rival", then Kimo Von Oelhoffen crushed Carson Palmer's knee.. and after the game the Steelers were in their locker room chanting "WE DEY!". Hate... hate... hate the Steelers!

Kind of like I feel about the Packers... now that I am a sorry Bears' fan too. Remember when they picked up Jim McMahon and threw him viciously to the ground and gave him a concussion? Later it was said that they had a "bounty" on his head.

I refer to them as the Spittsburgh Kneelers. 'Splains why they need those terrible towels.

Eagles and Steelers

Yea, Eagles and Steelers would be my second guess.

I don't know why but I have a horrible feeling that the Eagles are going to lose to the Cards. I still stand behind my super bowl picks (Ravens Vs. Eagles) but I keeping getting visions of past Eagles and Cards games when Jake "the Snake" Plummer would lead the Cards to a come from behind victory.

Don't curse Spitvenom! Haha. I guess me and you have the same superbowl picks. My original went out the window the first day. So, that was my second guess which is now my first!

N.F.C. CHAMPION ARIZONA CARDINALS... It's going to take some gettin' used to the sound of that...

Well, here it is!

Steelers vs. Cardinals!

I got none of the teams right. I was so dissapointed in the Ravens, but the Steelers are going to be hard for anyone.

Any Comments now?

My new prediction is:

Steelers beat Cardinal 31- 14

I hope it is the other way around

I'm going to stick with the Steelers - even though the Cardinals prove me wrong week after week.

Steelers 17, Cardinals 10

I think the cardinals will win 24-14 look for Larry Fitzgerald to have a Monster game.

Yeah, I believe it will be the Steelers winning...

I have this growing feeling that something shocking is going to happen in the Super Bowl. Not necessarily the outcome, but some bizarre event or play that may affect the game. Then again, the Cardinals are there. That's shocking enough already. GO STEELERS! No, really, go. Away. I'm sick of you.
