SET A COURSE FOR
THE FLAVOR QUADRANT
Gameday today. Who are you officially predicting to win (not necessarily who you’re rooting for)?

NFC: Saints - Close game, but home dome advantage wins and the Saints make their second Super Bowl ever.

AFC: Patriots - Bill Belichick has been here, done that. Another close game but the Patriots advance to their third straight Super Bowl.

I think the Saints will win. I absolutely cannot pick the Pats game because I think everything from a 14 point victory to a 14 point loss is possible.

My gut feeling is like 2:1 odds in favor of the Chiefs. From most likely to least likely scenarios IMO:

1) Chiefs win "close on paper but not really close" game
2) Chiefs win blowout
3) Pats win last second nailbiter
4) Chiefs win last second nailbiter
5) Chiefs just poo poo the bed out of nowhere

What I'm saying is that biggest danger to the Chiefs is Andy Reid having to make critical game management decisions in the 4th quarter of a close game.

that is dead sure to win.

I can’t wait to hear Pats fans talk about how much adversity the team faced, how strong the AFC East was, etc. en route to another Super Bowl.

I mean, they aren't the betting favorite by a slim margin for the first time in something like 4 years today.

Which has sparked the most insufferable no one believes in us thing in a while.

We all know what’s going to happen

The patriots are going to death by a thousand cuts them on offense, setting up some bullshit DPI calls, and just methodically bury them.

On defense they’re going to give up between the twenties, going for picks and sacks, before tightening up in the red zone and letting Andy Reid beat himself.

The patriots will win with a final score that doesn’t really give justice to how in control New England is the entire game.

yeah. I want the exact opposite of this to happen but I just have this sinking feeling the Pats probably win and Boston fans get to continue their little "nobody fackin believes in us!" complex. Puke.

I have a feeling the SB is going to be Saints/Pats with the latter winning.

Remember when you thought he was basically the same player as EJ Manuel? :v:

At least I think that was you. If it wasn't make fun of the appropriate Bills fan for me.

I saw that poo poo live, and I actually saw him getting ready to throw that blatantly illegal knee, going "no, you loving idiot, don't do.... lol, ok well grats on your DQ!"

Back in the early days of UFC the only rules were no eye gouging, no biting, no fish hooking (like putting your fingers in someone's mouth since they couldn't bite).

I remember one guy winning by repeatedly blasting the living poo poo out of someone's balls, also at least one match where guys were down on the mat head to head and one forced the other guy's head down and then just kneed him over and over again until he went limp.

On the one hand I live in Los Angeles so Rams / Chiefs would be an insane Super Bowl.

On the other hand the bars will empty out if the Saints win and I can kick back and stretch out. It's a tough one.

Come on Saints/Chiefs Super Bowl dream.

I'll also accept Rams/Chiefs but I'll be grumpy about it.

Just no Patriots, I'm literally willing to watch my home team lose if it somehow means the Chiefs win later, please don't let the Patriots have anything.

As much as I would love a Rams Chiefs rematch to relive that amazing game, it'd also be pretty cool to get Saints Chiefs for the sixth installment of "This is a good loving game" this year after Chiefs/Pats I, Chiefs/Pats II (pending), Chiefs/Rams, Rams/Saints I, and Rams/Saints II. Then the Chiefs would have played all three of the three other best teams in the game this year.

All 4 teams are cool, though I'd prefer either AFC team win because Pats / Reid's legacy.

It's also much funnier if Brees continues to be never better then second best.
