Tex may be a bull in a china shop but he know his football.
I agree - you can stick a fork in this one. It wasn't gutsy to pick the win, but it was to GUARANTEE it in writing. Good on ya, Tex. I don't think my Jags will fare much better. I'm already starting to feel a frog in my throat for tomorrow! :wink:
Not so fast. I think that may very well be the upset special of the weekend. The Patriots defense, especially their line, has looked very ordinary the last month. If Garrard doesn't make any huge mistakes, and this is key, whoa nelly.
Yep, Garrard needed to be perfect and he wasn't. He was good, but a fumble and INT is all the Pats need when Brady goes 24-26, and the two incompletes were drops. It's just scary how good NE's O-Line is in pass protection.
It was a pretty easy pick actually. Who had the Seahawks beat ..."on the road"..in 2007? Try nobody! They didn't beat one playoff team as roadwarriors. They are stricky a home team. Once they leave Seattle they become very, very average. GB went 3-1 vs playoff teams. Now add the Favre factor and we have exactly what we saw.

I thought Garrard was very very good and when he runs with those little tiny strides he's deceptively fast. Brady usually had time but its Still amazing how he hits a moving bullseye EVERYTIME.
