I think the falcons and the pats will go to the superbowl. If it's what happens, it will be a very close game between the 2 teams. Vick is awesome as is Brady, I think the Falcons have good chances. Seriously, I will have to make a choice between the 2. I don't know. I'll vote when I will know it.

If we get a major snowstorm as believed, it will benefit the Falcons more than the Eagles. Vick is a great player but not a great quarterback. His accuracy, or lack of, could pose a problem if they can keep him in the pocket.

I think you are going to see the two best teams in the NFL play the AFC championship game on Sunday. Pittsburgh will beat New England in a close one. Philly will beat Atlanta and meet the Steelers in the Super Bowl. I'll pick Pittsburgh to win it all.

There is no way the Pats are losing this Super Bowl. THEY BEAT INDY 20-3!!! The shut down the all time season leader in touchdowns completely. Big Ben and the Steelers are going to be able to move the ball against that D, it's just not going to happen, and frankly the AFC championship game will be a tougher game for the Pats then the Super Bowl will be. Philly and Atlanta both have A LOT of question marks, and the Pats will obliterate either of them. This is the Pats Super Bowl to lose.

I've always liked the Steelers and Vikings, so since only 1 remains, I'll say they are my pick to win it all. I like Atl, but I can't see a quaterback who cannot throw winning the superbowl. The Eagles are looking good, but for some reason I just don't think they have it. NE's great, but I just don't want to see them win it again.

Comparing Pittsburgh and Indy is apples and oranges. Indy may have the best QB in the league but they aren't a physical team. To beat NE it takes a team that can run the ball down your throat and beat you over the head physically on defense. Indy is neither of those things, Pittsburgh is. This has the makings of an unbelievable game, hopefully both teams can live up to their reputation.

The AFC game will be low scoring and a defensive touchdown will be the difference in the game. The Pats have a better kicker but will it make a difference in Pittsburgh with that goofy open end of the field?

Miami Dolphins are going all the way! Oh wait.. DAMN... my poor dolphins :(

But seriously, I say the Pats and the Eagles go and the pats take the superbowl, again.

I think that the eagles are going to get it done. A don't think the Falcons have a strong enough 2 way game. The eagles are strong on both offence(even without T.O.) and defence. They have 9 pro-bowlers,8 playing, and i just think they are an all around better team. As for them meeting the steelers in the superbowl,which i think they will, I think on paper the Eagles and steelers are pretty evenly matched besides the the amazing receivers that the steelers have (Ward,Randel el,and Burress), but i think the people like Bryan Dawkins will be able to contain this time.

My vote is for the Eagles, snow in Philadelphia this weekend would benefit the Eagles since Vick will be slowed down by it and the Eagles have the better D as well as Westbrook who will dominate the game just like last week.

Then in the Superbowl Philly will open things up on offence in Jacksonville with T.O. possibly in the lineup and even if he aint their offence is still superior to that or New England or Pittsburgh.

Superbowl will not be a defensive struggle like the AFC championship will be because the NFC can't hang defensively especially Atlanta.

My prediction: Eagles over Patriots

The Falcons have a better running game with two backs and Vick, The Eagles use the pass far more and only have one good back. Snow favors Atlanta.

I'd really like to see Vick go up against the battered and broken secondary of my Patriots, but I'm thinking that the Eagles will get it done. There's no way Roethlisberger will beat the Patriots. if you remeber when the Pats lost to the Steelers, Duce Staley ran all over us. Duce isnt active for this game and there aint a chance in hell Bettis will run all over us.

Bottom Line: Pats over Eagles by a Vinatieri field goal.

Are you kidding me, falcons? Even with the broken and battered secondary of the Pats they have the best defense in the league. Keep in mind they played 9 games and went 8-1 without Ty Law in the lineup, they are a DEEP team. Combine an amazing defense with a very good offense, and they're still my favorites. Falcons have a subpar defense and a good offense, they will not win the superbowl. Falcons/Eagles game will be exciting as hell, Pats/Steelers will be OK, but I see Pats and Eagles in the superbowl. Pats on top by a defensive touchdown!

I hate the Patriots, and I hate the Eagles. I guess that tells you who I think will go to the Superbowl, and I think that the Steelers will win it all. Basically, the AFC Championship is the Super Bowl.

I don't see anyway that an NFC team is winning the Bowl this year. I just don't see either the Falcons or the Eagles getting it done against the Steelers or Pats. Despite Indy and Pitt being two different teams, the pats defensive showing was just too impressive. I am well aware of Pitts running game, but I think the Pats can get it done on the line of scrimmage. Plus I think Big Ben will have another performance like last week, and if that happens it doesn't matter how good of a running game you got, because the Pats aren't going to give up on oppurtunities. Remember the Jets still would have won if Brien had made one of those two field goals.

I'm just suprised that so many people are picking the Falcons to get to the superbowl. Yes, I realize they looked good last saturday, but they will not be playing the Rams defense this week. Trotter is playing like a man possessed. If we can somewhat shut down the run and make Vick pass, he's going to see all kinds of blitzes.

They aren't going to be playing inside and on turf. It's going to be outside, in freezing temperatures, and most likely with a good amount of snow. I realize that the snow takes away some of our passing and kicking game, but it also takes away from Vick's scrambling and Dunn since he's a small, shifty back. Not sure a dome team has ever gotten this much respect in those conditions. Watch the Indy game again if you need a reference.

With snow it'll be the Eagles and the Patriots no matter the weather. If it's snowy, I think it'll actually be easier to pass for the Eagles and like Lego said Trotter is absolutely everywhere. As for the Patriots I can't doubt them after what they did to the Colts.

The Steelers defense looks great, but the Patriots Oline is physical and they should be able to put up some points. Despite Pittsburgh's running game, I think Big Ben is very overrated and the Pats will limit what he can do.

They also have Duckett as a power back and have used him that way at times over the season. I think Philly has the horses to win the game, I just think that a lot of snow will level the playing field. I also think that since Philly is the better team that a leveling of the playing field benefits the less talented team, in this case it's Atlanta. The snow will also most likely decrease the scoring and increase the odds of a fluke play making the difference. Not to mention the chance that if Atlanta goes up early that the fans in Philly could easily turn on the Eagles. It should be interesting in any case.

As for them being a dome team in the cold, it didn't matter a couple of years ago against the Packers. That alone gives them some confidence in the situation.

I also can't say weather should be too huge of a factor because Atlanta knocked out Green Bay a couple years ago in crappy weather too.

You shouldn't count that game. The Packers were without Ahman Green and both starting WRs for most of the 2nd half. The Falcons scored on a blocked punt and the Packers defense sucked. If you notice, they Falcons played the Eagles the next week and put up all of 6 points. And that was with Vick passing for 245.

I realize Duckett is a big and agile guy, but Dunn and Vick combined for 2000 yards rushing this season (1100 and 900, respectively).

I have no doubt that the Falcons are good at running the ball. But I wouldn't classify their top two rushers as good runners in bad conditions.

The only thing we should be really worried about is how well they'll call a run against our blitz. We can get beat when teams run away from our blitz. Unfortunately, I don't know if Vick can read a defense well enough to audible to a different run play (let alone against our type of schemes). If there's bad weather, running towards the blitz probably won't accomplish much.

I'll admit, the Falcons looked really good last week. But I also think the Rams suck.

The Rams are a bad team and only made it because they played the seabags 3 times this season. The big question mark is Vick. As I've said before, he's a great player but only an average QB. The Eagles best bet is to keep him in the pocket as much as possible.
