I always pull for the AFC, except for the Raiders. But I see the Seahawks as the old AFC West team and I generally like the underdog. I’m the exact opposite.

They'll have a Super Bowl at Fed Ex Field -- when Daniel Snyder puts a dome over it. It may have been warm in DC this weekend, but the NFL ain't taking any chances on an Ice Bowl championship.

There is only one dominate team in Detroit this year. Other than that Seattle 31-16. Pittsburgh played Detroit and in football, anything that actually comes in contact with the Detroit Lions is contaminated and doomed to failure. My prediction is 40-6 Pistons win.

And Ford, they may be a relic but they pay well and they treat people well. I suspect you've not been driving their cars, or GM's cars, lately. Toyota doesn't make better cars, neither does Honda. No clap at either of those union fearing altered beasts, their quality is also high. The entire DC area is an insular relic, Detroit has the advantage of being in the real world.

The Colts score was closer than the game really was as the Steelers dominated the game. I also like Denver but they were no match for the Steelers offensive line and attacking defense. This seems to be what most of the experts are predicting but maybe things will turn out different. After all, that's why they play the game. One good thing - at least this years winner wont be the Patriots, Sorry NE fans, but I'm kinda burnt out on them.

The Kentucky raise and pride of the University of Alabama has been dominate yet mislabled his whole college and pro career. I would rather have a great RB than a "smashmouth" defence that has no class(see Joey Porter). I will tell you why Seatle will win. The media is having a love fest with The Steelers and they can't stop, so is Oliver(34-10?), which Seatlle feeds off of. Do people remember how they were written off versus the Panthers? I'll put a gentlemans bet of $5 to Oliver's prediction(that he is wrong). Thlayli,
