Vick is a great passer. He's just not a great pocket passer.

Vick has a strong arm but he doesn't see his receivers. If you add his rushing yards to his passing yards he still is below too many QB's passing yards alone. Atlanta has two good receivers Finneran and Price and a stud Tight End in Crumpler, but Vick is too busy running to see they are open. In the Seattle game Vick was getting mauled, but once the backup came in the handed the ball to Dunn and Duckett and he hit his open receivers and almost won.

Mobile QB's are good, running QB's are not. This guy has Deion's legs and Jeff George's arm and can't see his receivers. He has a good team with good players, he doesn't have to do it all. If he were on Miami's team he would fit perfectly.

Playoff prediction Rams over Atlanta, Vikings over Eagles, Colts over Pats and Steelers over Jets.

Rams v Vikings for the NFC?
3 home-team losers for the second straight playoff week?

WOW. You'd get good odds on that in Vegas!

So from Rams/Vikes and Steelers/Colts, how do you see the Super Bowl.

Peyton seems to have that down. After a late season wobble. He had a great game Sunday, and I missed it. Didn't set VCR, only caught 'highlights'. He does play an intelligent game, and I love an intelligent QB. Montana was great to watch. And it doesn't hurt having a great coach - I love Tony Dungy. He's one of my favorite coaches.

Thats tough! I would pick the Rams to win over the Vikes and I would have to say the Steelers win over the Colts, although it seems like it's one of those historic seasons for the Colts, and I think they are the best team to beat the Steelers. The winner of that game wins the Superbowl in probably a blowout.

The Vikings almost beat the Eagles at Philly and now Owens is out. I think McNabb is good but I am not sure about his recievers.

The Rams fell apart in the 4th quarter against the Falcons early in the year. The Rams seem to be rolling a bit and they beat the Jets in the last game, a must win for them and the Jets (Jets snuck in due to Buffalo's loss). They then went into Seattle and beat them for the third time this year after Seattle beat the Falcon's at Atlanta in the final game to clinch the division title.
