NFC
Giants at 49ers
I am picking the Giants, although I will be pulling for the 49ers, since I despise any New York team.
The New York defense did a great job against the Pack Attack, and with a Manning at the helm they will be a tough to stop. Nevertheless, I think if the 49ers can have Gore, Crabtree, and Davis firing on all cylinders like they have been in the playoffs we will have an exciting game on our hands. I am hoping traveling West for the New Yorkers will throw their timing off just enough to faulter, but Giants win this 20 to 13 over the sleeper 49ers!
AFC
Ravens at Patriots
This is another matchup where I am picking another miserable team to win, since the only sports fan/team I despise more than New York is BOSTON.
Although the Raven D is oppressive, Flacco is floundering and even if Brady has an off night I can't see the Ravens putting up enough offensive numbers with Flacco to outscore the Pats. I hope that the weak Pat D gives Flacco and company enough comfort in the pocket to score some points and that their defense can pressure Brady enough to make him make bad decisions, but in the end I am going to have to say the Pats will be on the field February 5th. Patriots 24 Ravens 17
I hope that I am wrong since I would love to see the Ravens and 49ers in the Superbowl so all of New York and Boston fans/teams can be miserable this winter, but sadly it won't happen.
Superbowl XLVI
Brady takes Eli's fire away and wins it BIG with William Stephen Belchick's legacy and EGO only getting bigger.
Patriots 31 Giants 17
