    For professional football fans
    :) Shouldn't everyone want the Patriots to continue their winning streak? Don't you want the Pats to go to the Super Bowl undefeated so that your team has the opportunity to beat them, end the streak, and get your team into the record book for two reasons?

    George that is a great point and one I'm surprised I didn't think about. You are absolutely right. When the Green Bay Packers beat the Patriots it will double the pleasure of the win. Not that our QB hasn't set plenty of records already.

    Other than my husband (and he doesn't even watch football so he doesn't count), I have never even met a packers fan. Actually most people I know say they can't stand them.

    Say it ain't so, Nautical! Lol.

    I, for one, am hoping the Pack beats NE. Does not matter if it is only by one point. Just want to see it happen. Great way for Favre to add to his year. Just plain great for the Pack and all the cheeseheads.

    LOL.. I don't even know any specific reason why people around here don't like them, they just don't for some reason. There is no specific team that I "cant stand", I like football no matter who is playing, I just prefer the Cowboys. I actually like to watch the Bears play too.

    Packer fans must be out celebrating tonight, cheese and eggnog, you think? I don't know how they will get all those yankees into Phoenix.

    Hopefully the Packers are sound asleep and will wake up bright and early and hit the training room. They will need every miracle possible for the upcoming game. What is the saying, "any given Sunday?" NE can fall.

    Packers fans are out having a life, Texans are relegated to staying home on a computer. :D

    Hey, wasn't the Giants game a good one?? Woo-Hooo!

    Any team that takes to the field against the Pats stands the chance to beat them.

    Or lose to them.

    The more teams the Pats see, the more the odds stack against them.
    Imagine any team in the league facing all the other teams: eventually someone may find a way to pull out a win. I'm hoping the play-offs will be as competitive and as exciting as the regular season was.. for me at least!

    I can't wait!

    GO PATRIOTS!!

    About the Cowboys and Redskins: I've always believed in a 'therapeutic loss', one that re-energizes a team. But it probably should come earlier in the season.

    On the list of "if my team doesn't win the Superbowl then I hope (name team) will win." It seems the Packers would come up a lot.

    But the Cowboys are "America's team", right?

    Some may have said that, but fan support across the league would suggest otherwise.

    I've been a Pats fan since the early eighties. It hasn't always been easy. But it's not until recently that so many people have come up to me and told me that they, too, are Pats fans!

    Hmmm...

    You guys don't understand the Pats, in the first half they read the team, then in the second half they use that against them, and we all saw what the Pats did to the Giants (22 unanswered points, 3 records broken in one play) also what they did to the dolphins and the redskins who were ranked number 5 deffence at the time, correct me if I am wrong but it looks like greenbay is ranked number 11 defence and on offence they are ranked at number 2 but Pats are at number 1, so I really think there is not chance for greenbay. Greenbay has a recored of 13-3 and Pats have 16-0!! And how do you loose to the bears twice and loose to the cowboys

    I'm not saying the Packers are going to win. Just thinking that many people might be rooting for them if their team gets nocked off. It goes without saying that the Pats are the best team in football.

    The NY press spun the Giant loss to the Pats as a win because we hung in there . It may propel the Gnats to a win against the Bucs but we lost pretty convincingly to the Pack week 2. But as I always say ;the Gnats have a puncher's chance .
