--- Quote from: SilentJ on 07 Jan 2008, 04:42 ---I have decided that the Patriots do, in fact, need to win the Super Bowl this year.  They have a fair few older players on their roster, and the way I see it if they actually go the whole season without losing a game, the older guys on the team will realize that their careers cannot get better than it is at that moment, and they will decide to retire (Moss is a key example of this).  After this occurs, the Patriots will become fucking human again, as opposed to the demi-gods they have been raised to by all this fucking hype.

You think Moss will retire if the Pats win?  I highly doubt that.  In fact, if they win it all, he'll probably stick around in the league as long as Jerry Rice did because he'll always be able to go "I'm a super bowl caliber wide reciever, my team will always win" even if they suck it up.

And I think everyone on the Pats already realizes their careers cannot get any better than it is right now.  They seem the type to try and ride it for as long as possible, though.  Look at how LONG they've been on top of the league.  Even when they're not the #1 team, they beat the #1 team in the playoffs.

Replace Moss with Junior Seau and I think you've got it.

Against the Giants? I'm not too worried about it. And I'm pretty sure T.O. is going to suit up for the game...even if he's not 100%, it'll help. We still have Barber and Witten!

Good luck with the draft this year, Bryan!

As a Seahawks fan, the game against the Redskins was amazing... Well, mainly just that last quarter. :P

I don't pay much attention to football though, so I'm just going to (maybe?) watch the ones with Seattle playing. I hope there's more than just two of those.  :lol:

The last quarter of the Seahawks game really was the most exciting part, mostly because before that, the Seahawks almost screwed it up.  It was a good end of the game though.  I thought the end of the Pittsburgh/Jacksonville game was even more exciting though.  A lot of risks were taken in the end of that game, something you really don't see too often.  Like going for the 2-point conversion. 

I'd really like to see the Pats blow it in the end, mostly because I think Tom Brady's a jerk.  I'd love to see San Deigo go to the Bowl, because they're the team I root for when I'm not rooting for Denver (who, regrettably, were almost not worth rooting for this year), but the way they played yesterday leads me to believe that they may not have it all together, unfortunately.  I guess it doesn't help when the media just talks and talks about the fact that they hadn't won a playoff game in however many years, etc.  Sometimes I wish you could just tune out the color commentators.
