So how smart do I look having booked my flight to Arizona after week five of the regular season. The foresight was there to see that the Pats were a team of destiny, a team bound for greatness and nothing would stand in their way.
Sunday proved to be just another stepping stone on their way to immortality. A game in which Brady throws not one, not two but three picks in the game, you’d almost have to think that they would lose the game. But of course he stepped it up when it counted in the 4th quarter nailing Wes Welker (speedy white guy) for the game sealing touchdown.
In all honesty, what was going through Norv Turner’s mind in the fourth. I know he’s an incompetent dolt that sucked balls as an offensive coordinator in Miami before becoming a joke in Oakland as coach of the Gayders. I mean, Da Guy, Big Jeff, Eli, Matty or myself could have been handed the reigns to the Chargers this season and coached to at least the same record this fucking idiot did, if not better. With nine minutes left on the clock you seriously punt it to the best offense in football? I don’t care how poorly Brady was playing, you do not want to give the Pats the ball with that much time on the clock.
And what happened what Turner gave the Pats the ball? They proceeded to run out the clock with Clock Killin’ Laurence Maroney. Who would’ve thought that Maroney would step up so huge after playing the regular season like he was made of glass. This guy is going to basically DHL (or Fleet Courier) the Patriots a Super Bowl ring with his ability to make big runs when it counts (like the second half of the game Sunday or pretty much the Jaguars game) and not fumble the ball.
How pumped is everyone to see another Boston team just ruin another New York team’s chance of a championship? There is not a snow ball’s chance in hell that the Pats lose to a Manning (the other one) in the Super Bowl. No chance. ”But New York kept it so close when they played in December…” oh, did they, stupid? The Pats played out of their minds early in the season in comfortable weather and guess what? Arizona is going to be in the 60’s at game time, sunny with no wind. What does that equal? That’s right, that Pats just stomping on the Giants.
It’s all well and good that the “Cinderella Team” won three road games to get to the Super Bowl, but guess what New York? We’ve been there and done that. Our beloved Patriots won three road games to get to the Super Bowl in 1986 and were humiliated by a superior Bears team that made the Pats look stupid. Get ready to look stupid Cinderella.

I’d say you have to give a lot of credit to the whole RB corp for this game. Maroney came up huge the 2nd half, as well as Heath Evans on some key 3rd and short spots. I think a lot of credit goes towards Kevin Faulk. He made some clutch catches for the pats that really helped to put the game away.
I totally agree with you on the Giants, they are going to be playing in a dome with a retractable roof, and retractable field so they will be playing on real grass. This field has been cared for by the NFL since the end of the festia bowl and the grass was grown especially for the superbowl. Your going to see a whole lot more of Moss and Stallworth doing deep patterns. There will be no wind, the weather will be nice and toasty compared to what they are use to. Belichick and McDaniels will unleash the full power of the Death Star on the Giants to get to perfection. Another thing to consider, after Brady has a poor performance he bounces back in a huge way.
So Jay, your going to arive in AZ on the perfect day. The Pats fan club of AZ is going to be throwing a bash that night. Ex-players, proably some current players, and possibly Bob Kraft will be there to have a few tasty beverages. So we’ll have to grab some in-n-out and head over to the Pats party.
I feel so cheated that the pats didn’t get to face the Colts, and I feel cheated that the Giants beat the Packers. Oh well, onto history we go!
