Pats have owned Peyton in the Playoffs, and beat them when they played in Foxboro earlier this season. i know the Pats have historically had problems in Denver, but not this year

Don't make the mistake of thinking that the Broncos are the Colts this year. They're very different.
Looks like Andy Reid is going to be the new Cardinals coach by the end of the week and Gruden is pretty much making it known he will return to coaching this coming season.
Chargers and Eagles seem to be at the top of the list for him.
Why would he want either of those jobs. Fans are shit in philly for obvious reasons and no one shows up to the chargers games who knows if they will even be in san diego anymore.
You tryin to be a hero fool? You wanna see badass mother fucker?! I'll show ya a badass!!!
Maybe that'll be the team that finally blinks and moves to LA. Strat was a Chargers fan and he claimed repeatedly that they were keeping Turner as long as they did for that purpose
1st round texans over bengals packers over vikings ravens over colts seattle over redskins
2nd round broncos over ravens patriots over texans seahawks over falcons (tough decision but falcons usually suck in the playoffs) packers over 49ers (another tough call but i think kaepernik will make some mistakes)
championships broncos over patriots packers over seahawks (tough one but russel is a rookie so who knows how he'll handle the pressure)
superbowl broncos over packers
Im a little concerned about the Redskins to be honest. the RG3/Morris tandem can be difficult to figure out. I was honestly hoping that the girls would have made the playoffs instead of the Redskins. I'd much rather my Seahawks play tunrover romo.
I agree with your first and second round picks though. However I think the superbowl will be Patriots Vs Seahawks, with the Seahawks pulling out the win at that big game

Surprised to hear Gruden is interested in coaching again. I thought he was done.

Rookie of the year - Russell Wilson. And the great thing about the Seahawks this year- Their rookie of the year QB isnt the main reason why they will win the SuperBowl.

disagree in part. The Seahawks easily have one of the top 3 defenses in the league. Probably the best pass defense in my trying to be unbiased opinion. Secondly Marshawn lynch is a beast, I wouldnt say top 5 RB, but pretty damn close and for sure top 10.
I agree though that to win a superbowl they are going to need the rookie to play like he played the last 3 weeks. If the seahawks keep the ball rolling, they should make the big game....
The game I am most concerned about is Washington. If it was played in Seattle, I could care less who it was. I have no doubts Seattle will beat Atlanta if they get past Washington.

You are overestimating the Seahawks in one way and underestimating them in another. One, they do not have what I consider to be a top 3 defense in the league. They're right outside of that, in my opinion. Second, Marshawn Lynch is a top 5 RB, and I wouldn't say that it's close. Top 3, if you ask me.
But this is the plain and simple truth. If the Seahawks need to win 3 games consecutively on the road against teams like the Redskins, 49ers, Falcons or Packers, I don't think they can make the Super Bowl.
They were 8-0 at home but 3-5 on the road. That's not conducive to them getting to the Super Bowl this year. They go into the Playoffs having won 5 straight, but with 3 of those wins at home, needing OT to knock off a struggling Bears team and another win against the lowly Bills on the road.
It has nothing to do about how the team has performed in the last 5 weeks, if you ask me, it's about what they can do outside of that home-field advantage against great opposition. Their wins on the road indicate that they have not really beaten a quality team on the road. Now they need to do that 3 times in a row to get to the Super Bowl.

you'd rate Lynch right behind Foster and AP? That seems pretty crazy to think of him in that league. although, trying to think of someone I would wont instead of him, besides the two I just listed.... coming up blank. Actually I'd take Doug Martin over Lynch.
btw - The seahawks embarrassed SF. And you can't say SF didnt have anything to play for cause they did. Had they lost that final game to Arizona, Seattle would be sitting on a first round bye. Im calling it now - No way SF makes it. Not being a hater either because I'd rather another NFC west team make the SB if the seahawks don't. I just dont see it happening.

Doug Martin isn't nearly close to Lynch, and my personal philosophy with football, I consider Lynch a better RB than Arian Foster. You should see the size of the holes that he has to run through, Foster is a product of a system. Lynch is about as physical of an RB there is in the NFL, and that wears down defenses.
I think the 49ers are much more equipped to make it than the Seahawks, for a few reasons. Outside of Qwest, the 49ers have not had a game like that. They're not the first team to go into Qwest and to have a lot of problems. The 49ers weren't exposed in any way other than that they can't play in Seattle, which no one can. I'm not worried about that. Second, the 49ers are much better defensive strategists than the Seahawks, in my personal opinion. The Seahawks have a lot to prove to me on Sunday in how they prepare for the Redskins. Third, the 49ers can play on the road. They went into Gillette and beat the Patriots, they went into New Orleans and beat the Saints, they went into Lambeau and beat the Packers.

Gruden would fit in just fine in LA
