Super Bowl XXXIX is Set
Before I made my pick for the Atlanta/Philly game, the game that invariably took the Falcons, I realized that it has huge second guess potential. I wrote on Sunday afternoon that Atlanta was either going to run all over the Eagles or Vick was going to be shut down. Atlanta needs to get Vick some WRs. Anyway, the absence of TO didn't stop the Eagles from finally getting to the Super Bowl. As for Terrell Owens, okay he was cheering for his teammates during the game, I get it Fox. You don't need to show me after every play. Something I find interesting is that Terrell Owens is always compared to Randy Moss, but really, Terrell Owens isn't much like Randy Moss. Could you imagine Moss standing on the bench waving a towel and cheering on his teammates? Moss never gets that fired up unless he's swearing at opposing fans or running over metermaids in downtown Minneapolis. Really, the Eagles should've won by more. They committed so many penalties and kept the Falcons in it. Still, the Eagles were the far superior team and maybe they can make a run at the Super Bowl title.

The Patriots showed us why they're the Patriots. They dominated the Steelers. As much as Pittsburgh fans didn't want to believe it, the game came down to the QBs. Ben Roethlisberger looked like a rookie for the second time this year (the first time being against the Jets in the previous round). Tom Brady showed why he is undefeated in the playoffs, making countless throws on the money in crucial situations. The Pats open up as a 6.5 point favored over the Eagles, and I wouldn't be surprised to see that line grow as we get closer to the big game.
