    Flacco wasn't really poor, but he certainly wasn't very good. Below average, but then, he had to throw 62 times, so it wasn't exactly easy for him. Do you support anyone in the NFL?

    Probably the Broncos because I have friends who support them, so most of the games I've seen have been with them. Whenever I play Madden I'm the Saints, of course. How about you?

    Colts, so watching Broncos games always stings a bit, especially last night :( I love them though, they're only a tiny bit behind Southampton in my heart.

    49ers or Broncos. I was leaning towards Niners until last night. Could definitely see that being the SB though.

    Didn't Ravens win it last year? After last night I can't really see it happening again. Early days though.

    Mines 49ers or Sea Hawks. I have bets on each getting to the Super Bowl, managed to get 16/1 for the 49ers.

    Yeah they did, but they were lucky to do it. They certainly weren't championship quality for most of the regular season, and hit good form in the playoffs - even then they still needed a load of luck to get past Broncos. I'd be shocked if they did it again.

    Seahawks are probably by next pick after those two. How did you get 16/1 on 49ers?!

    I've got a tenner on Colts to win the Super Bowl. It won't happen, but I figured, last season I put a tenner on Ravens and that came off, a few months before I put a tenner on Southampton to get promoted from the Championship and that paid off, so clearly I've got some sort of power.

    After a quick scan the odds seem to be 6/1 for the 49ers WINNING the SB, so you must have been very lucky to get 16/1 on them just reaching it!

    Haven't a clue did it a few months back. They had Pats as favorites at 6/2, think some one that doesn't follow NFL much did it. Ravens were second fave at 6/1 at the time I put the bet on.

    From the same website - 17/2, and that's also to win.

    Sorry but if we had to create a cricket thread surely we've got to create an NFL thread. Don't want Beefy's filled with NFL crap thank you. :p

    It's one day. The Ashes was every day. Otherwise let's create a Moto GP thread, and a Rome Total War thread, and might as well prepare a GTA thread too, and we'll have a GoT thread next year at that.

    You're welcome to bring a new conversation topic.. at the moment no one is talking about anything else and I believe this is the most appropriate thread to talk about it.
