I WOULD LIKE TO BET ON THE PATRIOTS, WHY SHOULD I BET ON THE PATRIOTS? EVERY ONE IS ON THE PATRIOTS. WHY? WHAT DO YOU KNOW THAT I DO NOT KNOW? THE PATRIOTS CHOKING REPUTATION IN THE SB IS A BIG ISSUE.
I wish I knew the answers, this is just my opinion.
Just to answer a few things thou:
I'll start with this reputation of choking, did you forget that we also won 3 as well? Very easy to focus on the failures first. The past is in the past for a reason.
You also mention Brady has a reputation for fumbles and interceptions:
If I'm not mistaken Wilson threw 4 INTS last week. I have the up most faith that if this happens again to Wilson, The Patriots will seal the deal.
Did Brady really choke? Or did Wes Welker drop a key pass. There was also a super lucky catch in the other bowl. So I ask you again, Did Brady really choke? "You want him to throw and catch the ball" that was his wife quote after the game.....remember?
Why should you bet on the Patriots?
1. Patriots are the more balanced team. Period.
2. Now we have a secondary that's really not being mentioned.
3. That guy is back in middle Wilfork which we missed him last year. He also DEMANDS a double team.
4. Jones will be putting pressure on Wilson to scramble.
5. You have NO clue on what the Patriots game plan will be. On the flip side we ALL know what Seattle wants to do more or less.
6. everyone is not on the Patriots, do you know how much money it takes to move a line a half a point?
Again, this is all my opinions. All I'm saying is my money is on New England.
