I think NE by a lot (at least 10).
Lots of chatter about Pat's O and Hawk's D. What's being overlooked is the other side of the ball.
Pat's D is very good. In the last 2 months of the season, they only gave up more than 20 twice - to the Packers in GB (26), and 31 to the Ravens. Seahawks O is up and down. This is the X factor in this game. How will SH do on O. Versus GB, they looked like crap until the Pack fell apart very late.
I would have bought this before the Packer's game. He was anything but clutch versus the Packers. He threw 4 picks and looked like crap for almost the entire game. If he hadn't been so horrible, the Seahawks would have probably been in it or winning it in the 4th. If 1 of 10 different things happened - not one of which was in Wilson's control - then the Seahawks get beat and everybody is talking about how awful he was. Two jump right out - blown GB assignment allowing the recovery of the OS kick - horrible throw floated in the air on the 2 point conversion requires GB to blow the assignment by about 15 yards to connect.Hoping Seattle loses, but I think they're the better team. Wilson reminds me of Eli; not in style, but the fact that he's clutch.

I thought Wilson was super clutch last year. Not so much now, but I'll tip my hat to him if he plays well vs. Pats. I like him, and I really enjoy watching his style of play, which I consider to be the future of the NFL.
Do people still not realize this Pats team has a really good defense, too?Don't quote me me on the exact numbers, but Seattle has like 33 players who won the Super Bowl on this roster. Pats have like 3. And at the end of the day, defense always wins.

Agreed. Seeing what Seattle's done the past two years - especially in the most offensive-friendly era ever - and I truly believe it's the best defense ever.Both teams do, but the prolific D is Seattle and that's a no brainer. The prolific O is the Pats.
Yeah the main reason I hope the Pats lose is so "deflate" becomes a meme for at least a week or so, it'll be hilariousseahawks will deflate patriots

If the current Seattle D was all that, they wouldn't have let the Packers march down the field in a minute to tie the game. I like the Pats by over a TD.
