For anyone interested in this sport, who do you reckon will reach the Superbowl and who would you rate to win it?
Have to say a lot of the interest has gone for me with the Packers exit from the play offs but I'll still be glued to the telly.
Special note for Sprintex - yeah, I know,  :sleep:

San Francisco v Denver for me with Denver coming out on top (unfortunately).

From a Raiders fan who is married to a cheesehead!

Go Broncos  :D been a fan since the Elway days.  'The Drive' is still lauded as one of the greatest moments in the history of football

Hi,

Not really an american football fan, prefer baseball, but thought I'd stick me oar in.

Being a San Francisco Giants fan (only place I've been to in America, 5 times) I'll be rooting for the 49 'ers.

As a betting man I'd go Seattle.

Hopefully it'll be my team the Seahawks in the superbowl but I reckon I've jinxed it as I've just booked that night off work so they probably won't bloody get there now!! :doh:

I'm a Kansas City Chiefs fan so disappointed that they are out of the play-offs but great to have had something to cheer about this season.

Supported them since the 1990s when everyone at work seemed to be really into US football and I liked their red uniforms  :) - remember going to loads of SuperBowl and other gridiron related parties   :) :) Also remember blokes having deadly serious Sega Megadrive John Madden tournaments  . . .

I would like the under-dog Seahawks v Patriots final and would love Seattle to win it. Much preferred the old Patriots and Seahawks uniforms though.



Just one Pendolino, give it to me, a beautiful train, from Italy

I use the forum to get away from blooming football and what do we get on here, the even worse American version.

Get's coat and runs for cover  :P   :angel:   :dighole:

Shame they have self destructed after such a good start to the season but, to be honest, they didn't really face any serious opposition until a few weeks ago.
Packers were only ever in with a possible due to the loss of Anton Rogers for so long but I have to say I'm impressed with the Patriots and Seahawks this year

KC had some serious injury issues and the D went from No1 to zip. Funnily enough the O went the other way.

I was impressed with the Colts, ditching Manning was a courageous step and it looks like it will pay off in the future.

No need, Pengi. The title of the thread should be enough to know the content ::)

Been watching American football since Channel 4 began showing it in the early 80's. Support the Bears myself.

Super bowl should see Peyton collect his second ring.
