Cheaters don't deserve to win.

Back-to-back Super Bowl champions and a legit dynasty in the making?

Seattle Seahawks 27, New England Patriots 17

Ain't no way the Patriots will score 34 against that Seahawks defense even with a few guys banged up. They're going to make Rob Gronkowski look human. LOB!

Gronk is so overrated it makes me sick to my stomach.
J.J. Watt would become a better TE if he played there full time.
Jeremy Lane just earned a lot of respect in my book. You tell 'em!

RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks starting nickel cornerback Jeremy Lane paused for a moment Thursday when asked what makes New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski so good, because Lane disagrees.

"I actually don't think he's that good," Lane said. "He's OK. He does have a big body. But from what I've seen on tape, he doesn't like you putting your hands on him. So if we put our hands on him and shake him up a little bit, he won't catch that many balls."

The Texans are close to having the type of team the Seahawks have. I hope they win so it can prove that a great defense and running game on offense can take you a long way. As in back-to-back Super Bowl victories. We just have to find a franchise quarterback. We don't even have a playmaker like Russell Wilson much less a really good pocket passer. Although Case Keenum at his best could be a poor man's Russell Wilson. It was good enough to go 2-0 in 2014. Beating a really good Ravens team which nearly beat the Patriots on the road in the playoffs. They choked two 14-point leads. Who knows how many deflated balls the Pats used in that game to spark those comebacks at Foxborough.

The Texans will more closely resemble New England and not the seacocks when BOB is through putting his touches on the team.

And Seattle fans are total douchebags. 90% of their fans weren't fans a few years ago. Guess if I lived a pisshole town like seattle I could also end up a douchey seacock fans too..

Seattle is a nice town... if you ignore being built on the side of a mountain, crappy weather and the people.... :kitten:
 
There is no way in hell anybody who knows football thinks Gronkowski is overrated. That's emotion talking, not logic. If you don't like him because he is kind of a douchebag, then fine. But he's a damn good football player. The guy is the most complete TE in the NFL. I do, however, think that Seattle will be able to somewhat slow him down. They have the best set of Safeties and the best coverage LBs in the NFL.

I think Seattle wins. I'll go 23-16. Wilson will take care of the ball and efficiently run the offense in this game. I think their offense matches up favorably against New England, as long as they are able to play to their strengths.

I think their defense limits NE and holds them to FGs in the red zone. They have the DBs to play man on the outside and take away the short passing game. And they have a DL that can contain the running game without having to take LBs out of coverage.

Seahawk fans were behind their team, in strength, way back in the 80's (and before) when Jim Zorn was their QB, Steve Largent (the original Wes Welker) was their leading WR, and Curt Warner was their version of "beast mode". Then there was the Mike Holmgren era when they went to the Super Bowl and lost to the Steelers.

And I hope this year's version takes the SB.
 
Would love to see Brady get his 4th ring, but I think Seattle's defense is just too good. They will be able to control the ball with their running game and score just enough points to win.

Seattle 17, New England 13

Moral of the story is the Texans need to get off their high horse and get better at cheating.

Team Deflate 20
Team Adderall 17
 
Normally, I don't care about who wins or loses the SB. Just concerned with the point spread. But, I want the Seahawks to win ths game in the worst way. Almost as much as if my team were playing. And I'm not a Seattle sports fan, in the least. Just want to see the Pats humiliated. And I think they will be.

The Seahawks have the Pats kryptonite. A running game. They will dominate the LOS on both sides of the ball. And if we're real lucky, we might see the smug Tom Brady cry on the sideline. That would make it a great Super Sunday.

I think I've turned into The Matrix31.

Matrix 31? Ithink you have gone to the darkside.

Bleep this ****** Bleep that ***** oh well Bleep it ****** go Team Aderall.
 
I don't give a damn who wins or loses, I just hope its a close game with good commercials.
 
Remember when we had that 20-3 halftime lead over the Seahawks at Reliant Stadium (not called NRG yet) a couple seasons ago? We out-played the soon to be back-to-back Super Bowl champs for a half the last time we played them.

It seemed like Brian Cushing was beasting like an all pro talent - the last really dominating game he had pre second major injury - and he put a good hit on Marshawn Lynch in the backfield causing a fumble which sparked our momentum to that big lead. And then we fell apart in the second half and ended up losing in overtime. The infamous Schaub pick six to Richard Sherman late in the fourth quarter when we should have been running out the clock with running plays. That just added to Russell Wilson's 5-0 career overtime record. That one comeback win against the Texans seemed to spark what is now a dynasty in the making for Seattle.

Even if Seattle falls behind 16-0 like they did against the Packers in the NFC Championship you just had that feeling they were going to find a way to come back and win in overtime. I wouldn't be shocked if they blew out the Patriots in the Super Bowl just like they did against the Broncos last year.

The commercials and Katy Perry performing the halftime show may be the only exciting thing. Can you imagine all of the negative backlash if the Patriots were to win? The first thing I'll wonder is how did they cheat?

It's not like I even like the Seahawks. I sort of despise them out of jealousy because I believe the Texans out-played them in that game I brought up. But just like the Packers in the NFC Championship game we blew a big lead and I don't believe the better team won that day. But I have no choice but to cheer for the Seahawks against the spy-gate, I mean, deflate-gate Patriots. The last thing I want is for the Patriots to win their fourth Super Bowl by a mere field goal yet again. And then we'd have the entire off-season to guess how they cheated this time.

The Seahawks are one of the top 7 teams with the most PED suspensions.

Cheat Carroll and his team of drug abusers are a huge threat to the integrity of the game.

Why do you ignore the rampant PED abuse by the Seahawks? They are a bunch of cheaters! Last year's Super Bowl champions need to asterisked!! Give the trophy to Peyton Manning!!! :nolisten:

:sarcasm:

Maybe a blind man's Russell Wilson. And how you gonna castrate the Pats for cheating when the Hawks have had their fair share of shadiness?

I'm going for the Pats simply because I have a mostly-hetero crush on Tom Terrific.

This is where I'm at. Couldn't give a darn about either team. I want to be entertained, that's it. Well, winning a square or two would be beneficial too.

And good food. I'm thinking about cookin up a vat of gumbo

This! :chef:

My buddy and his wife host SB every year, and they really go out of their way to make some good grub. I'm looking forward to the great food and company as much as the game.

And not looking forward to Monday, when the realization starts to set in that we won't see any football for another 6 months.

Super Bowl will have ZERO 5-star [high school] recruits starting. But there are 20 starters with a 2 star or lower rating. Don't let a system define you.

I think NE gets it's panties in a bunch over all this deflate talk and pulls up their nut sacks and kicks Seattle in the cohones silencing all this talk and showing once and for all who has the biggest balls!
 
Pats 24 - 21

Got Pats -1.5
and under 47.5

Thought about emptying my account on Katy Perry props but then backed off.
