I hope so. Not too confident about the coaching.

lol. What coaching. The Cowboys are snake bit with Jerry!

 

[Diehardblues]

In an era of medicricity.. we have greatness

Pats not beating Falcons.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. The Falcons looked awesome today, but they're hardly unbeatable. The Patriots will be tougher than the Packers.

But I will be rooting for Atlanta.

 

[KJJ]

What an odd Dr Pepper commercial.

 

[cowboyblue22]

pats will beat Atlanta I don't know why the nfl don't just give the pats the trophy in September and call it a season

 

[haleyrules]

I'm just amazed that the Patriots can be this competitive every year in this salary cap era. I guess Brady and Bill are that good. And please don't say they cheat.

Yep. You just have to respect that organisation. The Cowboys were once that organisation. Too bad.

I don't think anyone had it east those days ... older folks know better though

NFC didn't compare to the AFC in the '70s, that's just a fact. I'm old too

Super Bowl line is out: Patriots -3. OVER/Under 57.5

In an era of mediocrity they are greatness.

Their records would indicate greatest ever.

You weren't talking about the playoffs. You said Dallas defeated Green Bay, but I didn't see them playing Atlanta today.

I'll repeat my entire quote (again), which you apparently can't see or are conveniently choosing to ignore:

"Atlanta lost to the Chargers, Bucs, and Eagles. Dallas defeated Pittsburgh and Green Bay.

We're closer than you think, but you have to play 4 quarters in the playoffs. Dallas played about 2 and a half."

So the Patriots can tie us with 5 SB's this year.

 

[Alweezy]

You sound like Jerry Jones. I'll take 7 boring Super Bowl appearances over 0 exciting NFC conference championships.

I'm not saying I condone this at all.. Just that's why we are still America's Team. We do just enough to be relevant. If we were putting up 10 straight years of Cleveland Browns football.. we'd be the C game on Fox playing at 12 pm.

 

[haleyrules]

Roethlisberger career postseason 25 TD 23 INT 84.3 rating

How important is it to have a good defense in the playoffs?

W 13 L 7

Yep.

 

[Aven8]

Because the Patriots don't play scared.

 

[SultanOfSix]

Sorry I love them. If you've been to this many Championship games and 7 SBs in this era you are great and doing something that isn't cheating. I like watching greatness thus hating watching Garrett. Teams like this are a level above us

I don't really care. To me they represent everything wrong with the NFL. From the bogus "tuck rule" to "Spygate" and "Deflategate", I see a team that gets every benefit of the doubt and shows that integrity means little.

Then I have to agree .. you were there .. but I just thought how physical and brutal the game was back then and couldn't see how anyone had it easy then .. but I have to agree with the one who witnessed both

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Yep. You just have to respect that organisation. The Cowboys were once that organisation. Too bad.

That's why everyone hated us back then. Great Coach, Great QB and great organization.

 

[muck4doo]

Crush them Atlanta, crush them.

Makes me sick! I guess l will have to hope for Ryan. He does seem to be a decent guy.

 

[Carson]

So the Patriots can tie us with 5 SB's this year.

What's amazing is we haven't won a Super Bowl since 1995 and are still tied for second.

What's also amazing is that the Patriots didn't win their first until 2002.
