Nikkala made me do it!
Shouldn't you like the cold?
I was wondering what the game might be like when I have been listening to the weather forecast the past few days. That should make it interesting.

you would think the Pack would, but after the game in Chicago, they seemed like a team that plays indoors. they were bitching and moaning about it for quite a while afterwards!
That probably was a big help to help them get acclimated for their last snow game. Have to admit, that looked awesome!
I was so glad the Cowboys lost, i know the word "America's Team" is way over used!
There is so many other fans of other teams! Drives me nuts!
I love the Detroit Lions, my home town team, sad to say, but they are my team..
I am wishing for a Packers / Chargers Super Bowl!
Go NFC North!

As long as it's not too windy or snows so heavily that it affects visibility, I don't think it will hurt that badly. There is not much you can do with the passing game in high wind. Cold is different because some people are more comfortable in it than others and there performance doesn't drop off as much as other people.
I agree, but it was stil shocking to see it disrupt their game so much while the Bears looked unphased by it!
Don't think it will be a big factor for the NFC game, as New York should be pretty used to cold conditions as well.
But the AFC, now that's a different story! Being injured doesn't help, and the cold weather tends to make those aches and pains a little more noticable!

Okay Friday...you've got me re-thinking things....I'm going to be pulling for the Giants. Why, I'm sure you're asking...what have your boys in blue done to earn the Great TR's bandwagonning? Well, it all comes down to basically being sick to death of idiotic ESPN announcers actually asking NY Giants players if they would be rooting for Brett Favre..if they were fans...
This is completely asinine pom pom rah rahing from ESPN. It's actually sickening behavior from them, imo.
I want one OR BOTH of the underdogs to win if, for nothing else, to make the ESPN Rah Rahs like Trey Wingo, Salibury, Berman, Tom Jackson...cry..
Besides...the Giants played the Pats close and might be the only team that can pose a challenge to the PATRIOT/BRADY EMPIRE...

I saw they got Strahan to actually say "If I was a fan I would be rooting for Farve". I hope my Giants treat Farve like they did back in 86 Joe Montana(who btw I think is the best QB I have ever seen and that includes Brady).G-men though smacked Joe hard and had him wondering who and where he was.So welcome to the camp, and your right Giants gave Pats all they could handle last game of the season and while not winning proved they are not supermen.And again I think it really workd in the Giants favor to always be the underdog and not the media pick.Hopefully if we make it by Green bay all the media will focus on NE and the Giants will not be as distracted by all the super bowl hype.
He had no choice. The media basically trapped him to get the answer "I LOVE BRETT FAVRE (sniff sniff)" out of him that they wanted. It seems like every ESPN announcer and analyst holds hands when "Brett Favre" is mentioned. Plaxico Burress was getting harassed to say the same thing.
I'm sick of it. Brett Favre had his "time"...We had to endure him sucking and hogging a roster spot for the past 2 years...It's not like Favre hasn't won a Super Bowl before, kinda like John Elway many years ago...
I think he's going to play very average tomorrow and the Giants might come away with a 17-10 kind of win...

WHAT?! Am I actually reading this correctly?You actually want the Patriots to lose after talking them up for so long? Now you finally understand why I want the Pats to lose so bad,and as for the Packers,I really hope they lose too,and I'm in no way,shape,or form a Giants fan.But alas,there is no way,NO WAY!!!,that the NFL will let to underdog visiting teams wins and go the the "Big Game".After all of the talking and building up of the Patriots and Brett Favre,I just can't see both of those teams losing their conference championships.
I don't WANT the Brady Empire to lose. I am okay with it happening because it would turn the world upside down, basically. San Diego played an incredible game last weekend...it just seems like the deck is too stacked against them--all the injuries, playing the Pats on the road in cold weather...etc...I just don't see an angle there to give San Diego a realistic shot at beating New England. Tom Brady will not put in a crappy game. He'd have to get injured.
The media coverage on the Pats hasn't sickened me as the Pro-Favre coverage has. That is the difference.
I see a close game between the Packers/Giants...maybe New York can get the job done.
The Brady coverage was in top gear about a week or two ago(or maybe a little longer) but has since taken a back seat to Favre.
my last predictions have been WAY off, but I'll give it a shot. . .
NY's secondary is too banged up. With GB's recent running success and Favre's quick slants, even the rush from the Giants DE's won't be enough.
GB's secondary plays very phsyically, and this disruption doesn't seem like a good fit for Eli. They will run the ball well, but it won't be enough:
GB 31 NY 17
As much as I would like to see NE lose, I don't see it happening. The Chargers play a tight first half, regardless of who plays and who doesn't, but Brady and Co. walk away with it in the second half. Cromartie limits Moss's big plays, but Welker has a huge game.
NE 41 SD 17

Plus playing on ground that is iced up and hard makes even landing on Astroturf seem better.
