New England may have just won the Super Bowl last week. I really thought the only team that could have beaten them and would have beaten them was the Indianapolis Colts. But unfortunately, they took the 4th quarter off and I don’t get to see my marquis matchup.

San Diego at full strength and at home has a chance. But there are too many question marks. We don’t really know the status of Philip Rivers or LT’s knees. Obviously Antonio Gates can play with that toe, but we don’t really know how much its affecting him. They have strung a bunch of wins together and in the NFL winning streaks like that are rare. They are also at a disadvantage because the game is in New England. Not because of the extreme cold we are expecting but simply because they just aren’t as good on the road as they are at home.

On the other hand New England has looked beatable over the past few weeks. However I still believe that they are a once in lifetime team ( I was too young to remember the 72 Dolphins) and trends, odds and statistics just don’t apply. Its going to come down to if the New England Patriots want to remain undefeated, they will remain undefeated. San Diego has shown a lot of heart, particularly in the second half but they are hobbling in to play a team that is playing for much more than a Super Bowl title. There are many Super Bowl champions. This team is playing their way to NFL royalty. Patriots are 14 point favorites with a 47 point total. Time for A & A. Patriots 31 San Diego 16 I think that’s too much. San Diego will stay close but never really have a chance to win. New England 27 San Diego 21.
