NFL predictions?

I was suprised with the colts game today. The jets were shutting them down with their defence all first period. Than in the second half they came back strong for the win but not without a fight. Called my dad to double check if he still had faith in the jets when they were 20-17 colts. Great game.

I did miss most of the vikings vs saints game, disappoint since thats the one i wanted to watch. Like i said in novemeber i had a feeling it would be these 2 teams but farve had some killer games since than. BTW is it just me or why is the pro bowl a week before the super bowl. isn't it always a week after?

Yes its always been the week after and always in Hawaii but this year they decided to put it the week before and in Miami. Stupid. For one, it was a great tradition that it was after and two, I bet guys like Manning don't play in it because he plays in the superbowl the next week. Can you imagine a player getting hurt in the probowl and missing the superbowl?

So I guess any Saints and Colts Pro bowlers are out this year. I don't know how many players that is but I bet its a lot.

took a look at the roster last night and brees and manning are starting qb's. dwight freeney is playing as well. I was a bit suprised when i heard that as well cause ya, who wants to get hurt just before the superbowl. i found it a bit strange and never heard of it being a week before and in miami instead of hawaii.

I know they are listed but do you think they will actually play? If Im the coach, there is no way they are playing. Imagine if Manning got injured in the Pro Bowl and couldn't play in the SuperBowl!!!!

Maybe they will play but in that case I will be really surprised and I think the NFL has made a big mistake this time. One of the few times I can say that about a league that is run better than any other pro sports league in North America...by far.

There's no way Manning and Brees are going to play. McNabb will take Brees's place and Garrard will take Manning's spot.
