Grant Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 I don't know who I'd rather win that AFC Championship game, personally. I know tons of Steelers fans, and most of them can be real pricks when it comes to football. On the other hand, I don't know how much Patriot ass kissing I can take. So, I'm torn on who to root for because I *wanted* the Colts to represent the AFC, but that doesn't look very likely at this point.
HtownBillsFan Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Gotta go with Pitt. Hopefully yesterday was Big Ben's bad day and next week the Steelers rip the Pat's a new !@#$!

If that's their "A" game, the Pats will kill them. PTR
KurtGodel77 Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Well, you could go with the Pats, with the idea that you need to be an AFC East fan. I'm an AFC East fan myself. Well, except for the Dolphins. And except for the Jets. Also, except for the Patriots. But except for those three teams, I'm an AFC East guy.
Rico Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Take the Pats. Cowher dodged a bullet yesterday, he's still bound to choke. I wonder if the Steelers will be getting any points? (sure hope not)
CJPearl2 Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Pats will win. Like it was said above, a healthy Dillon will be the difference and I think the Pats Defense will put a lot of pressure on Pitt and Big Ben. Pats - 23 Pitt - 16
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 The Patriots will CRUSH Shittsburgh.
Grant Posted January 17, 2005 Author Posted January 17, 2005 I think the Pats will really take Ben "Frankenstein" Roethlisberger out of the game, but what about that running attack?
gantrules Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 The Patriots will CRUSH Shittsburgh. 207827[/snapback] It's not even going to be close...
KurtGodel77 Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 The key to the Patriots' success has been their long, back-breaking drives. I don't see Pittsburgh's defense letting them take control the way that they did against the Colts and against us.
T-Bone Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Not in their house. 207898[/snapback] What a great game, Manning sure looked lost out there, eh Harriet?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 It's not even going to be close... 207842[/snapback] That's the vibe I'm getting too.
cåblelady Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 What a great game, Manning sure looked lost out there, eh Harriet? 207901[/snapback] HOLDING on T-Bone!
Golden Wheels Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Shoot, the last time the played in the AFC title game, Belichick still managed to get a win with Bledsoe at QB for over a half.....the man's a football genius Pats win a close, smashmouth football game with an Adam Vinatieri FG in Pittsburgh next week.

Had the Jets ahd ANY semblance of offense yesterday, they'd have smoked the Squeelers. Think the Jets D confused Roethlisbergererer? Wait till ol' Billy gets his hands on that rook's brain.

The Pats crushed the Jets 27-0 a few weeks ago....so the should beat the Steelers by at least 27.
2pink1stink Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 You guys all said the Colts were gonna kill the Patriots. No Ty Law. No Tyrone Pool. No Richard Seymour. Peyton was gonna torch the Pats D for 1,000 yards. Prediction for next week: Patriots 73 Steelers 0
Grant Posted January 17, 2005 Author Posted January 17, 2005 Both teams are very similar and it's going to be a lot of long drives, running, high percentage passing and blitzing. It will be won by a field goal or less. Count on it.
