Uh, no. I get the Colts PLUS 5 1/2 points. I can lose by 5 and still win the bet.

So is that a no one a 2nd bet?

This game is likely to look like that Colts/Cheifs (I think) playoff game in 2003 or 2004 when there were like 2 punts in the game and both teams had 5 touchdowns after three quarters or something insane. The Colts D is pretty good but they are not stopping the Pats. No one can (except MAYBE Pitt). You can't double team everyone and you can't get a very effective blitz going because Brady is too quick with the reads. The Pats will score at least 5 TD"s in this one.

I think the Colts will be able to score as well. You know Dungy has been saving a few special plays for this game that he didn't run yet this year or last or maybe ever. Manning is amazing and I think they have been taking it easy with Harrison to make sure he is ready for this one (much like the Pats did with Richard Seymour). The Patriots secondary is nowhere as good as their front 7 so I see both teams throwing more than running and this will look like a college game (just, you know, interesting) I think this is going to be an absolutely amazing game. The two best teams with great coaches playing their best and doing everything they can to win. This game will decide who gets home field advantage for the AFC title game (also known as the super bowl since the NFC has about a .06% chance of beating whoever comes out of the AFC). Whoever wins becomes the favorite to be champs. I have not been this excited about a regular season game in any sport since Michael Jordan returned against the Pacers after his first retirement.

Also, I will lay 2.5:1 that the Pats break the single season points record if anyone is interested.

I found +250 for INDY to win AFC. This has to be a good bet hasn't it? Seeing as how the money line for INDY is like +200 and the winner of the game very very likely is the winner of the AFC? Or are the extra +50 not worth taking?

I hate betting against the pats but this seemed pretty good? Thoughts?

Thats a good bet, but saying the winner of this game is the winner of the AFC is gettign way ahead of yourself.

Any NFL team can beat another NFL team in any one game. Injuries and other intangibles are big factors.

Not too mention that teams like Pittsburgh are going to make some noise as well. I think San Diego is about to get on a roll and could steamroll into the playoffs. Once they get used to their new coordinators, they have the talent to beat anyone.

Lets also not forget Jacksonville. Garrard is the 3rd ranked QB and they have a stiffling defense and pretty sweet runnng game. They can beat anyone in any one game and will be in the playoffs for sure.

PM with where to send the money. All I have is Full Tilt money.

Great game. I really wanted the Pats to lose, but Brady is just magic this season. Even when hes having an off game, he still comes up big.

Best game of the season, definitely.

Moss is just plain sick. That one-handed reception in the middle of the field... and the 55-yd bomb that he pulled in even after pass interference. DAMNN!!!

16-0 meets 15-1 in the AFC Championship game.

Location: Foxborough.

Weather: 5 degrees and snowing
