it's not who has the #1 seed now. It's who has the #1 seed after Week 17.
Well, what do you have to say for yourself now, AHfan? Week 17 is over and the Pats have the number 1 seed. When this has occurred in the past, the Pats usually have gone to the Super Bowl. Do you want to revise your SB prediction?
Brady for MVP!! -

LOL!!! You seem to be under the delusional impression that the AFC's #1 seed is relevant. It isn't, because the Cowboys will just demolish whichever team comes out of the AFC, just like the Cowboys did when they went to the Super Bowl in the 1990s.
When this has occurred in the past, the Pats usually have gone to the Super Bowl.
Except 2010, when the Pats were (wait for it ) 14-2 (same as this season) and went 1-and-done in the playoffs.
Do you want to revise your SB prediction?
Nope. I've had the Cowboys for a couple of months now and I see no reason at all to revise that. -

Lol Brady and the Patriots are on the way to #5
LOL!!! The Cowboys are on the way to #6.
To quote LeBron: "Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5". 6! Going to need both hands to keep count of the Cowboys' Super Bowl wins. -

I love the irony in your erroneous Super Bowl prediction.
Actually, AHfan, it's Tom Brady and the Patriots who are on their way to #6 next season. They will need both hands to count their Super Bowl wins. -
AH_Fan — 9 years ago(February 10, 2017 06:04 PM)
the Patriots who are on their way to #6 next season.
Nope. The Patriots were just lucky this season that they didn't have to play against the Cowboys because the Cowboys wouldn't have collapsed like the Falcons did. And even with a weak opponent like the Falcons, the Patriots still needed help from the refs to miss an obvious facemask call that would've allowed the Falcons to kick a game-clinching FG and put the game out of reach late in the 4th quarter.
Next season, the Cowboys will win their 6th Super Bowl and tie the Steelers. -

The Falcons had the number one offense in the NFL, so how can you describe them as a weak opponent? Also, the Falcons demolished Seattle and Green Bay so clearly they cannot be described as a weak Super Bowl contender.
You are so biased! You're cherry picking bad calls by the referees. Why don't you mention the two defensive holding penalties in the fourth quarter against the Falcons that Joe Buck and Troy Aikman described as obvious missed calls by the referees? The bottom line is that the Patriots overcame mistakes by the referees and the Falcons failed to do so. You can keep making excuses but we all know that the Patriots showed more resiliency than the Falcons.
BTW. When the Patriots win the Super Bowl next year, that will make it 3 SB championships in 4 years. And you will have to live with everyone calling it "another Patriots dynasty". LOL. -

how can you describe them as a weak opponent?
The Falcons were #25 in the NFL in yards allowed and #27 in the NFL in points allowed. That's really weak. The Falcons were 1 of the worst defensive teams to ever play in a Super Bowl. It's a mystery how the Patriots were so inept that they were held without a TD in the 1st half against such an atrocious defensive team.
You are so biased! You're cherry picking bad calls by the referees. Why don't you mention the two defensive holding penalties in the fourth quarter against the Falcons that Joe Buck and Troy Aikman described as obvious missed calls by the referees?
Because those defensive holding calls didn't affect the game. The Patriots still scored on those 2 drives so there was no negative effect from those 2 defensive holding calls not being called.
But the easy and obvious facemask that wasn't called changed the outcome of the game. If the refs had called the obvious facemask penalty, then the Falcons would've had a chance to kick a game-clinching FG to put the game out of reach late in the 4th quarter. By not calling the obvious facemask penalty, that had a negative effect on the game by changing the outcome of the game and helping the Patriots win.
we all know that the Patriots showed more resiliency than the Falcons.
It's not resiliency at all when the refs help you win. Great teams don't need help from the refs to win the Super Bowl. The Cowboys never needed any help from the refs to win their Super Bowls. The Cowboys won on their own merits, winning each of their 5 Super Bowls by double-digit margins.
The average margin of victory in the Cowboys' 5 Super Bowl wins was 20 ppg. That is just incredible domination. The Cowboys didn't just squeak out 1-possession wins. The Cowboys dominated and destroyed their opponents in those Super Bowl wins.
Like I said in my previous post, the Patriots got a lucky break by not having to play against the Cowboys this year because the Cowboys would've destroyed both of this year's Super Bowl teams.
will have to live with everyone calling it "another Patriots dynasty".
Nope. Next season will be the beginning of another Cowboys dynasty. This season's Cowboys team is like the 1991 Cowboys, who lost in the divisional playoffs and then went back to the postseason in 1992 and knocked off the Super Bowl favorite 49ers and began the most dominant 4 years by any single franchise in NFL history. -

Next season, the Cowboys will win their 6th Super Bowl and tie the Steelers.
That seals it then the Cowboys are going to miss the playoffs again.
Why does a rough and tumble sport of men have such whiny pantywaists for fans? -

the Cowboys wouldn't have collapsed like the Falcons did.
You're right, they would've just lost to the team that lost to the team that lost to the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Strong showing in the playoffs, big guy.
The future is in the hands of a man who has none.
(As in no future, as opposed to no hands.) -

the Cowboys will just demolish whichever team comes out of the AFC
Right now, you should be praying that the Giants don't advance deep into the playoffs because they own the Cowboys this year. It would be funny if your Cowboys lost to the Giants in the playoffs because then many of us would be able to mock you for losing to the Giants just like you have done to Pats fans for so many years.
And I know what you're going to say. "18-1 is still funny." That's one of your favorite sayings. -

Funny thing is he will not the #1 seed credit. He will call it lucky and say the Raiders choked.
What will be interesting here is when he changes his AFC superbowl pick. Does he still think it's the Raiders or will he flip to the Chiefs? We know he won't oink the Patriots. If you noticed last season, he always changes his picks to the current 1 seed unless that team is the Patriots.
Also, I seem to remember a prediction of his being that the1 sedan in the AFC will be determined by the Raiders-Broncos game in week 17. Of course, that can still happen, the question is does he stand by that prediction or is he bailing already.
