I think Bill Belichick has the best shot at winning the super bowl.

The falcons?? You got to be kidding, I'll admit Vick is doing well but I think he is just not mature enough to win it all already. We'll see though.

never never never post something like this. I used to sit back and listen to people talk about how "soandso could never win!" You just end up eating crow later.

I'm going with the Steelers, even though the Patriots will probably win.

I'm (obviously) pulling for the Pats, and I think they can do it but it won't be easy. Pittsburgh has a good team, you don't win 15 games by accident, and they are at home, but if they slow down the run enough to make Ben throw, I think they will have some problems. Roth has been nothing short of average in the second half of the season, throwing about as many picks as TD's, less YPA etc., and he was pretty bad last week. If he tries to come out and prove that last week was an abberation he may be a little over-anxious and make some bad decisions. My guess is that if anyone tips the scales towards Pitt on offense it will be Staley not Bettis. I think the Pats are too quick and tackle too well to let the Bus have a big game against them in the playoffs.
Every team in the league has been affected by injuries, but any impartial observer would acknowledge that the loss of Dillon at game time and Law and 40% of their O-line during the game greatly affected the outcome of the Oct 31st meeting. The only thing that I would take out of that game is that the two teams are pretty evenly matched so whoever is able to execute their game plan better will likely be the winner.
BTW Sion, your bias is showing if you think that the Pitt O-line vs. the Pats front seven favors the Steelers. The Pats are deep and talented at almost every position with diciplined, versatile, veterans. Their LB's and "hybrid" edge players, like Mcginist and Vrabel are exactly the reason teams have difficulty game planning and matching up against the Patriots. I say Pats by six.

Pats of course, 'nuff said, or maybe not. This time against the Steelers, they'll have a RB, and all their receivers. Last time, no RB and no receivers, they should have lost. I will grant the the Steelers have a great team, but I think that the Pats are up the challenge this time. It's going to be a great game either way.

With regard to falcons. If Vick steps his game up even higher, can anyone stop him? or would they be prepared to? I don't think anyone should be too quick to dismiss the Vick factor.

as is yours with that statement. look at some of the front 7's the Steelers have faced this season. then look at our yards/game.

we ran ALL OVER the Ravens, who have a better front 7 than the Patriots.

and as for the NE depth, they are lacking that in both the Dline and the secondary.

you have nearly as good a LB corps as we do. Other than that, its no contest defensively.

i don't think it will happen but i would like to see the steelers win it all. i like when old dynasty's rejuvenate themselves to win it again decades later.

on a side note, really anybody but the eagles would make me happy.

So the Steelers and the Falcons are gone. I still say the Pats will take it.

I'm rooting for Philly, but I just know Patsies will probably win with a last second field goal and some cheap calls they always seem to get......*yawn*

Man, get over it, it was years ago, and it was the right call then.
