I was a kid living just north of Miami when the Fins went undefeated. I thought it ironic that they almost went winless the only time another team has a really good shot of going undefeated again. |

Location: Chehalis, Washington | Don't bring it up...what a crazy game. All I can say on behalf of my home team is I'm glad I didn't have to play in that...
Favre sure can still play - and that's all I have to say about that. |

Location: Omaha, NE | Wow! The Packers looked REALLY good today...once they got past two early fumbles and spotting the Seahawks 14 points.
I lived in GB back in the late 1980's. Great times. An older guy at work had season tickets. His wife no longer had any interest in the games, so he always brought me. That was really cool, even if the Packers weren't particularly competitive back then.
I like the Cowboys, but this year I am rooting for the Giants just so the Packers can have one more home game.
You have to admire the Patriots this year, but they seemed so methodical today. Tom Brady doesn't seem like he is having any fun. Favre is far more fun to watch. |

Location: Cicero, NY | GB has always been one of the teams I've always loved to hate. Some great players have passed through that team over the years and I loved watching them play (Favre has ALWAYS been a great player) but hated when my team ended up on the lower end, which was plenty. Now that my team is out this year and I can't bring myself to root for that virtual machine in NE, GO PACK! |

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | Alright, I'm coming out of the closet...
I'm a quiet football fan. (Having formerly been a quarterback) I appreciate good play design and calling on both sides of the ball...
Simply said, I have never seen anything like this Patriots team and especially the offense under Bradey. The confidence and composure they demonstrate on nearly every snap is astounding. They are so well coached, they just see the holes in the defensive game and exploit them with an incredibly deep playbook.
I don't get caught up in the winning and losing but, if the Pats go undefeated - all will have to recognize that this season, in its entirety, will be among the single greatest achievements in sports history. |

Location: Cicero, NY | No argument here. Never been a Pats fan but that team was flawlessly put together at every position and Coach B is just the guy to make them jell (no easy task with today's egos but he has done it with these guys). Beatable? Sure they are but you gotta bring everything with you and hope for a few breaks too. Get into a shoot out and you're going home with an L for sure. All you football fans have seen the inevitable comparisons with the best teams of all time - the 49'ers, the Fins, the Steelers, the Packers, etc. but, IMHO, this team can play with any of them. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'm a died in the wool Green Bay fan. Born in Wisconsin and most of my relatives were from Central Wisconsin. It's wonderful to see them do will with an old guy running a young team. They have 2 Boise State guys on the team, too. Ryan Grant did a great job after losing those 2 fumbles. It took a lot of heart and encouragement from his team to keep going after that. |
