    If Gronk was out you'd be making all the excuses in the world

    Gronk was out last year bro lol. We were down 28-3, go back and read my posts. Never mentioned him.

    I won't mention Hightower if we're gashed in the running game or Edelman if Brady has no one to dump off over the middle.

    Both teams made it this far. They are fully capable of beating each other. They're both great teams but both flawed.

    I’m not playing anything, your fans are already starting the Wentz s---, like he’s proven himself in big game situations. You know how many regular season QB’s there are who come out and stink in the big games under the bright lights?

    Hightower and Edelman are proven big game monsters, who have made SB winning plays in both of the last 2 SB’s, But the Pats don’t need them to win, just like they didn’t need Gronk last year.

    Reporter: Super bowl prediction, sir?
    Trump: *hesitates for a few seconds* I better not get involved...

    In other words he probably has no clue who's even in the d--- game yet lol...or maybe he knows just cuz Brady's a supporter of his, who knows.

    I see Wentz brought up moreso under what if thoughts, not really as an excuse. To me, Wentz does not come off as the type of guy who is going to fold under pressure, but like you said that is yet to be seen. Of course, both sides can play the injury game, but like Fitzy said, both teams made it here just fine with the team each currently have.

    The Eagles can and will win the game because of the players we have at our disposal in the trenches.

    It was a nice run for your Pats, though. The end of an era

    Pats have a lot of unknown depth in the trenches too.

    I think it's really gonna come down to crunch time.

    The real weakness of Pats D is Malcolm butler.

    I think Brady will figure out the defense but I can see eagles having a 10 to 14 point lead early though.

    It really matters how each team finishes.

    Belichick and Brady do such an amazing job at taking a teams best shot early and adjusting. I think Philly is gonna be amped early but I think both teams will settle down and the real game will be the end. I think it'll be a classic.

    I really think the key more than Philly pass rush is how well they cover Gronk and our backs. They're matchup nightmares against everyone.

    As far as Philly on offense, you gotta attack Butler with double moves. He bites on them really bad. Otherwise, Pats defense is great at bending but not breaking and usually adjust insanely well in the second half.

    It amazes me how confident Philly fans are lol.

    I remember the same confidence in 2005 lol. RB had so many depressed Eagle fans

    This team feels different. There's no pressure on us and as much as we overcame these past few decades let alone this season winning a SB will be one of the most special moments in NFL history

    Ok that explains the cocky attitudes. No pressure to win, because you never have lol.

    Ill be honest... Both of the 2004 teams were way better than these 2 teams. Philly fans were just as cocky back then though lol.

    Ill say this, I gave Eagles a SLIM shot in 05 though. That Pats team was a machine... Even though Philly was stacked, Pats were just a monster then.

    This Pats team might be the weakest Pats team to make the Super Bowl (2011 was pretty weak too). I think Philly is pretty equal to us, so I give them more of a shot... But they're not as good as that 04-05 team.

    Just saw the Eagles were originally 50/1 odds to win the super bowl for this year, changed to 40/1 shortly before the season..They were 16th most likely to win, tied with the Titans and Colts lol.
