My sentimental favorite was eliminated in OT after Bret Favre threw
up a wounded quail. What was he thinking ? And my hometown favorite
bit the dust because Mike Martz pulled a chicken**** at the end of
regulation. What was HE thinking ? So we're down to the final four
and I'm left without a rooting interest. In order to make things
at least marginally interesting I'm going to predict the outcomes
of the last 3 games of the NFL season here on roff so I can gloat
about having gotten it right. ;-)

Colts at Pats

If your defense gives up 31 points to the Chiefs, I don't think
even Peyton Manning can keep you in the ball game against the Pats.

Prediction: New England 28 - Indianapolis 21


Panthers at Eagles

Donovan McNabb will not be denied. And that's good, because it makes
Rush Limbaugh look like a Big Fat Idiot.

Prediction: Philadelphia 24 - Carolina 20


Super Bowl XXXVIII

Pats and Eagles, tough call. Should be a barn burner of a Super Bowl.
Gawd, there's been 38 of them already ? My how time flies when you're
drinking Bud. ;-)

Prediction: New England 27 - Philadelphia 21 in OT

I could live with that ;-)

The Pats will have their hands full again this weekend.
Indy is an offensive strength, but we're hopeful Manning keeps remembering
he's never beat the Pats. Ever. And Indy's defense is clearly from hunger,
which matches up with our anemic (but keeps on winning) offense.

No matter who I'd root for, I would definitely not want to face Carolina.
Period.
