QotD: Super Bowl
Posted January 24th, 2005 @ 12:41pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: What are your Super Bowl XXXIX predictions? How about your Super Bowl XL predictions?
My Answer: Patriots 27, Eagles 17. Steelers 27, Falcons 10. It's appalling the quality of play in the NFC - I can't see anyone pulling out a winning season except the Eagles and Falcons. It will obviously happen, but I think another year of maturity and a wide receiver or two, and the Falcons topple the Eagles. Two quarterbacks failed miserably on Sunday and their teams lost.
Incidentally, I think it'd be awesome to play in "Super Bowl XL." Roman numerals are sometimes very cool for marketing folks.
