All right, we all know who's going to win. Let's see what else we know. Add a reply to this thread with your predictions for the game. Let's see who knows what about football or who knows how to make a lucky guess.

I dusted off my crystal balls (yes, I have two!) and saw the following Sunday.

1. Bethel Johnson will score at least one touchdown.

2. The Panthers will score 10 points or less.

3. Panther Steve Smith will be as invisible as Marvin Harrison was 2 weeks ago.

4. Ty Law will have an interception.

5. Tom Brady will be going back to Disney World.

6. Patriots 24-10

Thirsty, you are very close, however the final score will be 24 for the good guys and 13 for the Southern team. You just need a little more "experience".

I notice this was not posted in the Carolinas!

24-10 that is a brave one.  I'll take the pats. Law for at least 2 interceptions.  There will be a run game. Special teams and defense for a touchdown and it will all come down to Adams gold toe

You're right...I'll post it there but I don't know if we have many Panthers fans on the Carolinas boards. After the Panthers beat Philly, only two people posted about the Cats on Carolinas. Me and a guy from Philly.

How about a prediction on how many nipples pop out during the Lingerie Bowl?

I expect a dull, defensive game and I'm hoping the $M ads will make up for it.

I agree with all but 5 and 6.

5.  Ty Law will be going to Disney World as a make up call for two years ago when he should have went.  Even though Brady will probably deserve it more this year.

6.  Patriots 31-13 (the last Panther TD will come long after the game is decided.)

It's pathetic how people are grabbing at straws trying to justify a Carolina win.

Have Fun and Enjoy the Game

Factors:
1) Giving Bill B. 2 weeks to prepare for a team is unfair.
2) Pats are 11-0 against teams with 10 or more wins and 7-0 against playoff teams.
3) Cats just simply didn't play a tough a schedule. St. Louis on the road was a quality win. Beating a backsliding Dallas and injury riddled Philly were not.
4) Pats witnessed what happen to St. Louis 2 years ago when they took an upstart team lightly.

Predictions:
1) Davis goes nowhere-Foster puts up a 100, but doesn't see the endzone. Smith and Faulk struggle.
2) Cats block a punt for their only touchdown.
3) Pats score twice on defense/special teams.
4) Score is close at the half. Cats shutout in the second half.

Final Patriots 31 Panthers 13
MVP Rodney Harrison (1 pick/2 fumbles caused/1 recovered)

Go Pats Go!!!!!

Tom Brady: cum Tom cum (right over to my house, dagnabbit lol) meowww

I thought Vinatieri or Otis Smith should have gone to Disney World two years ago but the MVP is decided by the online vote so it will probably go to a skill position player.

I think the Pats are going to come out throwing deeper than usual. I would be surprised to see them score a lot of points although I like the under for the game (36.5?)

Re:WOW NH...and I thought my crystal balls were hot! [end]

Pats win 27-17

Thirsty, you are close again. The over/under is 37 1/2

Pats by 17 points and its not that close!

and then Kim comes in to pitch in the 9th inning to get some work.

I have my score written down on a piece of paper (Hint: Pats win). For the gal who comes closest to guessing, I'll treat her to a FS 60 minute BFE (Boyfriend experience) at my place. LOL
