First picks for the Superbowl.
First would be the Broncos
Followed closely by the Ravens. Any takers?

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Man on Fire said:Kaepernick gets hot in the playoffs. 49ers beat Broncos
Are we forgetting the game of games. Where the Colts ended the streak.Espi said:I'm not betting on ANYONE to beat Seattle in their stadium during the playoffs.
Denver is the obvious choice in the AFC, but Manning has a history of choking versus NE. I'm assuming that the Patriots will have to play Denver at Mile High--that's the ONLY reason I'm picking the Broncos for the Super Bowl.
I won't be surprised, though, to see NE return to the Super Bowl. They can beat Denver on the road.
Broncos 35
Seahawks 31
Espi said:That was a plus-1 in favor of Manning. A BIG plus because Indi got to the Super Bowl.
But...that was at home; and they barely squeaked by. He choked many a time beforehand. Beaten rather decisively by the Patriots both in NE and in Indianapolis.
And it happened again this year. Against the Patriots.
He's a great quarterback, but let's remember that he has ONE Super Bowl ring.
His brother has 2. Both against NE, by the way.
I'm just not 100% confident in him beating the Patriots. They've had his number for years.
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

Some other teams to watch
I would never count out the Pats. They always seem to find a way to win postseason games. The Niners will be a tough out too. If the Packers can somehow sneak in they could be a sleeper.
You are totally right EspiEspi said:I don't know.
I personally measure a quarterback's legend on the number of Super Bowls he has won. That's supposedly what they play for right? (Besides the money!).
Well that game sucked. Even if we beat Green Bay, we don't deserve to be in the playoffs. 32nd ranked rush defense? We're the Bears FFS, defense is #1.CHICAGO27 said:I think Chicago is doing a disservice by starting Cutler. I don't think they are going to win in PHL this weekend.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Arizona has always had good potential. I'd put them right up there with the Colts and the team from Washington.Espi said:--Looking more and more like a NE-Denver showdown. Will probably be another classic Brady-Manning showdown.
--Was very surprised to see Arizona beat Seattle in Seattle. It'll be interesting to see how the Seahawks bounce back. The late season loss could wreak havoc on their psyche.
--SF over Atlanta got away with one.
--Not convinced that Carolina is for real. Yet.
Let's go Seahawks!vantagepoint said:Arizona has always had good potential. I'd put them right up there with the Colts and the team from Washington.
^^^Boom!Peaks&Valleys said:Chargers Niners. Book it.
What I can tell you is the Chargers have been a great team since the Jets beat them in the playoffs not too long ago. They have what it takes. We'll see if the Niners can do it. I will tell you this I'm putting all my money on the Colts. They really have what it takes.Peaks&Valleys said:
