Patriots win it all.

The only reason I have the Patriots even making the championship is because they have to get past just the Bengals for it. NE beat one playoff team this year: Denver. 2 of their 3 losses were to these playoff teams, even one as erratic as the Giants. They won't even sniff the Super Bowl.

The Pats lost narrowly to the Giants, who are dangerous on offense when playing well. They nearly beat Green Bay.

Admittedly, the Patriots' pass defense is tissue-thin (so is GB's and NO's, of course) but there is no AFC team that can keep scoring pace with them. BAL and PIT are both pretty miserable offensively. It's going to come down whether or not the Ravens can shut down the Patriots' pass-heaviness.

Of course, I was this cocky two years when they bounced us out in the first round at home. So...we shall see!

The giants are playing really good football right now and could beat any team but then again so can the saints and packers so its a toss up.The falcons still suck and arent going anywhere.(as usual)
New England is still such a great team so Id say them or Pitt depending on big Bens ankle going to the super bowl.
These are gonna be some sick playoffs thats for sure!

NFC title will be stupidbowl winner. No way the Pats can hang with either GB or the Taints.

Conventional wisdom says you're right...but everyone claimed that no one could beat the Pats last year, the Colts the year before that, the Pats in '07, and so on. The playoffs rule.

Pats have shit for pass defense. Rodgers and Brees are co-kings at this point with sissy boy a distant second. Bring it.

I'd love to see the Ravens play either of those NFC thugs. It's gonna be a killer s'bowl so long as that happens.

That is pretty interesting, but remember most of the teams they are playing are playing from behind, and trying to catch up. They can't afford to run the ball and keep the clock running when they're losing, so they pass more often. Still, cool stat.

my SB matchup is the ultimate offense vs. defense scenario. but it's 2011, and Roger Goodell pussifying the sport of football created the Year of the Quarterback and it's all about huge yardages and pass, pass pass.

Alls I know is that some asshole wore their Redskins puff jacket to work today as if there's some reason to be proud of them. OH WAIT THAT WAS ME.

I'll root for the Saints too. Eff the Pats.
