get rid of the damn stupid halftime shows.   Who watches the damn things anyways and since they have expanded them seems like team with momentum in first half seems to lose it

I can't think of two fan bases more deserving of a championship so my condolences in advance to the fans of whatever team loses.

 

I think the Rams are vastly underrated going into this game as they have more talent on both sides of the ball.  They should be favored.  Belichick will pry take away Cooks so I see a big game from Woods, Everett, and Gurley.  KC had a lot of luck with screens last game so I see Gurley having a huge game after everybody wondering what the hell's going on with him after last game.  Donald and Suh plugging up the middle will make the Pats rely more on the pass.  I just don't see the Pats offense keeping up with the Rams who will be playing with a chip on their shoulder after hearing for two weeks how they shouldn't be there.

 

Rams 37

Pats 31

I predict two crushing bad calls by the refs on the rams that extend drivers for NE and lead to at least 10 points for NE. 

 

Too bad Vegas doesn’t offer prop bets on the number of bogus calls for NE.

Or....maybe Vegas decides how many bogus calls NE gets?  

 

 

(I love playing with the conspiracy folks!)

20-17 Rams....pats dynasty comes full circle

 

 that was the score when they played in 2002

 

Cool take. I remember that first Rams Pats SB. Made a little $ that year.

 

I still see Pats winning something like 27-20. I think Bellichek is going to pull out all of the stops to confuse Goff.

 

I've seen him scheme against better QB/RB combos in the Super Bowl.

Lol great write up, the patriots will control the game, they will run the ball when ever they want.  

  You can look back to the 2015 broncos games all you want to try to use the wade phillips can stop brady bs. Which is a crock hes 3-6 vs brady 

 

1 game in 2005 and 2 games in 2015 againast the patriots injury riddled oline and no running game and he would be 2-6 if keshawn Martin didnt muff a punt, aybe even 1-6 because that muffed punt cost NE Home field advantage.

Rams have a better D than the Chargers and Chiefs, and a DC in Wade Phillips who has faced Brady in the past and been successful.  Rams O can put up a ton of points.

 

35-14 Rams

What are you talking about. Lol did you just make that up? The chargers defense i so much bwtter than the rams. 

 

And what success 33% in 9 games vs brady, 2 in 2015 when the patriots had no oline, and Stephan jackson carrying the football..lol.

Goff is terrible under pressure..if you say otherwise then you think josh rosen is amazing.

 

Patriots will run over 85 plays, they will test mcvays patients. And if this becomes a drop back passing game for the rams they have ZERO chance

 

 

In 8 super bowls belichicks teams have held the opponents #1 RB well below their season averages and WR#1 have had over 60 yards less then their season average.

Friggen Pats fan.  I wonder if Bills fans would be this obnoxious if we were so good for so long?

NE 31 - LA 20...BB will take away the run and force Goff to beat them .....Have a DB and McCourthy on Cooks.....Gilmore on Woods.....on offense, they'll use quick passes to White and Burkhead to offset Donald and Duh....once the Rams adapt, Sony Michel will run for 100 yards....and Edelman/Gronk will team up for a monster 2nd half.....NE wins the SB, and it's another hellish off season listening people drool over the Patriots.....then, August comes around and every NFL fan claims " NE is no longer a threat, they're not what they used to be and that Brady is to old " and the vicious circle keeps going.....I am officially depress when it comes to football .....KC really screwed the pooch this year.....

I have contemplated this.  The answer is likely yes.

 

Which makes me take it a step further - would I want the Bills to win that much?  Seems like a no brainer.  But I’d hate to be the way a lot of those fans are.  It’s cartoonishly obnoxious.

6 inches Offside - if not for that, the offseason is about an aging Brady throwing 3 picks and should he retire...

Look to the Sports Books.  It’s estimated that $6.5 billion will bet on the game (I know that includes bets on the spread, money line, O/U, props, etc).  Regardless of how the bets are broken down, billions of dollars will be bet on the point spread.  

 

The spread this morning is merely NE -2.5 (and has been holding steady at that number). If NE wins per the expectations and predictions of most people (which will likely translate closely to the bets placed in the betting community), they’ll be covering easily which means Sports Books will take a hit (not sure if they can off load the amount of action they’d need to cover themselves). I think the Sports Books might be a little more in tune than I am with my subjective belief that the team I despise most seem like a shoe in to win by a mere FG.  

 

Based on most of the predictions I see, NE -2.5 is a bet I should jump all over.  However, when a line looks too good to be true I’ve learned the hard way that it is.

 

FYI—Over the past 11 years, the underdog has covered the spread nine times, and won the game outright eight times.  Food for thought.

Aboslutely.  Vegas know the allure of the Patriots are blinding people from the fact that they are the inferiror team on both sides of the ball.  Other wise they would've increased the point spread to get more qual action. That's why I put 1k on the Rams.  Kansas City woke up in the 2nd half and put up 31 points last week.  I don't think the Patriots will be able to contain the Rams offense.

Gilmore is good at press, Cooks can’t get off press coverage. I fully expect that to be the plan. 

 

Look for a big game from the Rams TEs. 

 

On the other side, Rams need to try Talib on Edelman, it’s not perfect but it’s better than NRC. The Rams can’t waste Peters/Talib on Hogan and Dorsett. 

 

Is Gurley actually healthy this week? If he is, they have a shot.

I hate to do this, but I am going New England 34-17.  I think the game is tied at halftime but the Patriots wear down the Rams defense and pull away at the end.

 

Yea Brady is the MVP and everyone’s “wonderkid” Coach McVay shows that he’s not up to the task of outcoaching Belichick

 

Heres a huge list of predictions from all ESPN writers.  The majority seem to pick NE though its closer than last year

I see it similar if the OL of New England gives Brady time to throw. New England 31- Rams 23.

I have heard from a lot of Bills fans that games ending at 10 are too late. Does no one stay up past 11 anymore? Even when I was working a day shift I was never in bed much before midnight.
