I was never much of a Peyton fan, but I kinda like his brother. I can't wait for the eventual game where the brothers play against each other.

First off, congrats to the Pats, they played a hell of a ball game. I am disappointed that the Colts didn't win, but shit, that was a difficult defense to play against, especially on that field. I am happy that the Colts made it to the AFC championship, considering what the other Colts fans, and myself are used to. Next year though, we're taking it all.

No, you're not, Manning's contract is up, and if they're going to keep him they're going to have to cut others, and you probably won't get another chance for a couple of years.

Have you seen Ty Law's cap value for the next two years? u-g-l-y. Some changes will have to be made in NE if he plans on sticking around.

I'm confident the Panthers will tear into the Samuel Adam's lovers and their lager. Besides with my friend Jake at the helm it's all good. I really need to get drunk at his victory party whenever they come back. Though it's a small house for all those drunk vagabonds.

Hey, I agree there, but the big question is, who are you going to cut?

I could go into specifics, but the problem with that is, why bother? The true answer that any coach for indy will give is "Whomever it takes."

And then who is Manning going to throw to?
Indy needs to keep the core group together.
A star QB won't take a team all of the way without a great supporting cast.

Just ask Dan Marino about his Superbowl rings. :P

That's what you get for not draining your field properly.

3 AFC Championship Titles in 8 years is a fluke how exactly?

Yup, when KC finally gets a defense, their time will be at an end. Bwhahahahahahah. *shifty eyes* 8 months to go until football season.

What are you upset about. The Dolphins still have more Superbowl rings than the Patriots. It's just that Bob Griese was on the team then and not Brian Griese (although, Brian Griese does have a Superbowl Ring thanks to Elway and Davis). :)

Have the Dophins ever really crashed and burned though?

I know they've had some iffy seasons but as far as I know they've never been reall close to the bottom of the barrel.
