But sometimes you have to take a step back and give yourself a dose of reality.

Who the f*** are the Chargers really? They're Philip Rivers and a bunch of nobodies. And they were going to Foxboro to play Brady and Belichick on a week's rest.

That was the easiest pick I made this weekend. Chargers had no shot to win this game. Reality.
I was going to let this ^ slide but I can't...
The Chargers led the NFL in Pro Bowl selections
(let the sink in for a minuted before you continue)

and were selected by several NFL pundits to make the Super Bowl this year
The Chargers are loaded and were considered by many to be the most complete team in the NFL
second only to the Saints

I know you're an NFC guy...
But the Chargers are loaded

The team that leads the entire NFL in Pro Bowl selections has a bunch of "nobodies"
Went 12-4 / won as many road playoff games as the Eagles
and they suck...

It's important to keep in mind this is coming from a former Charger fan.

I think the Chargers win by 10+
The Patriots have struggled against teams with real defenses

You thought...incorrectly. Lost by 10+. :mrgreen:










Yes - I'm well aware the Colts lost. I listened to that game on my way home Saturday. I was hoping this would be Luck's year.

On the Chargers very first drive and very first pass, Rivers hit one of his receivers deep, square on his hands.

Ball was dropped.

It was the textbook case of not being ready for the cold.

Southern/Western/dome teams go to Foxboro to die. Joe Flacco and the cold-weather Ravens are the only to go up there and win two playoff games against Belichick in Foxboro. The Jets did it once. Both cold-weather teams. Belichick won the other 20 playoff games at Foxboro.

I am thrilled we don’t have to hear about Foles leading another SB team. I have to go with the NFC this year, cannot stand Chefs or Pats.

And were curbstomped in Foxboro, like every other Southern/Western/dome team that has played a playoff game there since Belichick was hired.

Next.

Well, technically Rich Gannon and the west coast Raiders had the game won, in the night and snow even, back in something like '01 or so when they decided that Brady didn't fumble on that tuck rule. But that was back when the AFC had some depth to it.

Geeze the NFC bias must have a blinding effect...

Over the past 15 years
The AFC and the NFC each have had 5 different teams win the Super Bowl

NFC
Eagles / Seahawks / NY Giants / GB Packers / NO Saints
AFC
NE Patriots / Denver Broncos / Baltimore Ravens / Steelers / Colts

Talk about trying to lie through statistics - do you touch your significant other with the fingers that just typed that post? For shame!

There's no getting around that the AFC, using your timeframe of the past 15 years, is much more top heavy than the NFC has been. Sure, each conference has had 5 different teams WIN a Super Bowl in that time. What you failed to mention is that the AFC has only had those 5 teams actually represent the AFC in the past 15 years. 15 years, 5 teams winning the conference championship, with only Baltimore just being there once in the timeframe. In the same timeframe, there have been 10 (2x as many) NFC teams representing in the Super Bowl. Heck, if you look at the longest droughts without a playoff win, 5 of the 6 longest droughts belong to AFC teams (Bengals, Bills, Browns, Dolphins, Raiders) and among those six teams, the NFC team in that list (the Lions) have the most playoff losses (9) meaning that at least they're getting to the playoffs more than the others. There's no comparison, the AFC is extremely top heavy, in your past 15 years, when compared with the NFC.

If by top you mean top 33% then sure... the AFC has mostly an unchanging top 3rd
If by top you mean tippy top - like winning it all - there's not much difference between the two
