Well folks, we're a week away from hopefully the best football game of the season. Here's a little questionnaire for everybody to try generate some discussion.
 
1. Who do you think will win?
 
2. Who do you want to win?
 
3. What kind of party will you attend/where will you watch the game?
 
4. Do you foresee any potential retirees on either team if their team wins?
 
5. For fun, predict the Super Bowl teams for next season.
 
 
1. There's something about this Atlanta team. I saw it against Seattle, and was surprised by it. I think I expected Green Bay to beat them but the way they handled that game too was unsurprising. I think New England would win if they had Gronk, but I'm taking Atlanta.
 
2. Of course I want Atlanta to win. My hatred for New England is well documented.
 
3. I'm not sure what I'm doing yet. I'm debating between attending 1 of 2 parties, or just watching it at my favorite bar and shooting pool (I have to practice regularly to maintain my game and what better excuse to go shoot 5-10 games?)
 
4. He has said he's going to keep playing, but I have a feeling Tom Brady will blindside us with his retirement. I don't think it'll happen but I do think it's a possibility. I also think Belichick will drop it on us with no warning. Otherwise, I'm not sure of anybody else on either team.
 
5. I really think Minnesota has a chance to run away with the NFC next year if they address their OL and stay healthy while also maintaining their defense. I'm thinking Minnesota/Oakland in a surprise matchup.

New England

New England
 
3. What kind of party will you attend/where will you watch the game?
Watching with my boys
 
4. Do you foresee any potential retirees on either team if their team wins?
Vollmer is retiring regardless of outcome, and maybe Scarnecchia retires again (I hope not).
Maybe Matt Bryant if they Falcons win. Probably Freeney's last game too

New England v Dallas

There is a 100% chance I fall asleep before it ends, and about a 40% chance I don't watch any of it

1. Who do you think will win?
Patriots. I think they're the more well rounded team. Atlantas offense is scary but can their defense keep up with New England? I also think New England will try to control the clock, set up a strong running game and try to keep Matt Ryan off the field as much as possible.
2. Who do you want to win?
Atlanta, because.
3. What kind of party will you attend/where will you watch the game?
Bar.
4. Do you foresee any potential retirees on either team if their team wins?
Idk, Bryant?
5. For fun, predict the Super Bowl teams for next season.
Patriots vs whatever team Romo ends up playing for.

T.O. didn't get voted in for the second straight year.  HOF voting needs to be overhauled.  T.O. should have been a no doubt first ballot guy.

It's an absolute joke that Terrell Davis got in over Terrell Owens.

First time ever that the Lions were mentioned in a Super Bowl thread without the word "not" somewhere
