a balmy -5 http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gif Rodgers loves the cold and Lacy and Stark are hard running cold weather backs, throw in a bit of Kuhn blocking and Jordi and Cobb catching and if the D holds up Packers by 10+ Wisconsin born Romo should be ready for the cold but does he have the temperament http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/sherlock.gifQuote:

Unless the Saints can renegotiate a few contracts they're in big trouble.
A few of the main earners -
Drew Brees $26.5m
Junior Galette $15.5m
Jimmy Graham $11.0m
Jahri Evans $11.0m
Jarius Byrd $10.3m
Marques Colston $9.75m
I'm sorry but there is no way my Saints should be paying Byrd who was hopeless last year (although heavily injured) over $10m. And how the hell Marques Colston who has had fewer than 1,000 yards the past 2 seasons (and has never had more than 1200 yards in a season - even though his whole career has been as WR1 to the QB who throws the most yards in the league) is one of the most handsomely paid wide receivers in the league.
Without Brees the Saints would struggle for 1 win a season. Quite scary really!Quote:

have a read extract from 67 ice bowl http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/thumbup.gif "he officials were unable to use their whistles after the opening kick-off. As referee Norm Schachter blew his metal whistle to signal the start of play, it froze to his lips. As he attempted to free the whistle from his lips, the skin ripped off and his lips began to bleed. The conditions were so hostile that instead of forming a scab, the blood simply froze to his lip. For the rest of the game, the officials used voice commands and calls to end plays and officiate the game. At one point during the game, CBS announcer Frank Gifford said on air, "I'm going to take a bite of my coffee."[34]Quote:

Going to be a close one for sure, Buffalo showed the way to shut down the Packers offence but I doubt the Cowboys have the personell on D to do the same. Will depend how Dallas can get Murray running and chew clock, could well come down to a few ref calls again!
Not sure if you've managed to see much from deep inside Rodgers colon but Romo has been very good this year as he's had offensive options rather than just "throw it to Des". Unbeaten on the road too , how has your Demi God Aaron got on in road games?Quote:

I'm rooting for the Ravens. I love a good underdog story. Anyone but the ****ing Packers! (I'm a vikes fan)
MVP says it all really http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/thumbup.gif jokes aside, romo is good but comparing him to rodgers http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gifQuote:

Why are people talking about Rodgers's record away from Lambeau? You realise the game is in Wisconsin and he's 8-0-0 at home this season. You also realise that Rodgers threw for more TDs than Romo, fewer Interceptions (5) and 4 of those picks were deflected passes which his receivers toched first.
All 4 home teams will win their respective divisional match ups this weekend is my prediction.
Great news that Odell Beckham has now been included in the Pro Bowl. I'd imagine it's between him, Mike Evans and Jeremy Hill for Rookie of the Year.
JJ Watt is probably in line for the League MVP - but if either Romo or Rodgers leads their team to the Super Bowl in commanding fashion that should change.
Divisional -
Patriots by 4
Seattle by 10
Packers by 6
Denver by 7
Rodgers may be better than Romo. But Murray and Dez are so much better than fatboy and Jordy Nelson it kind of levels it out.
really, dez is so much better that nelson http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gif stats this season are similar and nelson is on home field backed up by cobb with a superior qb throwing to him, lacy is a cold weather back with stark as a good second option, ps just read your first line, rodgers may be better that romo http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gif stop the run and green bay win, if you stop the run you may still lose as your secondary is gash, you're only there because of the picked up flag http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/getmycoat.gifQuote:
