I kind of want Baltimore in there, but either way, some damn good defensive games coming up.

Should be interesting.....and I think it would be the best marchup the TV execs could hope for, even if the regional basis would kill this game outside the east coast. That being said, both the Ravens and Cardinals have absolutely confounded any and all prognosticators the last two weeks. Next weeks games have the potential to be the most nail biting championship games in NFL history....no way the TV boys want a Cards/Ravens superbowl. Which is precisely why I'll be rooting for this ratings disaster :wink:

Although I'm a huge Steelers fan, I wouldn't mind seeing a Ravens - Eagles SB, just for the hellacious defense show.

'Course, could get a similar show out of the Steelers, but for some reason the Ravens D is just damn scary.

TV definately wants Pit - they have a huge national following. But I am going think out of the box and say TV would be better served with Arizona.

You have the Warner story line. Fitzgerald is a NFL golden boy. You also have a massive underdog appeal (if they go up against Pit, but not Balt).

I know I would rather see that game. But then again, I pretty much can't stand Philly. Don't like Pit either, but they are pretty damn good.

The worst game (as far as TV is concerned) would be Baltimore/AZ. Smaller markets as compared to either Pit or Philly.

I, on the other hand, wouldn't mind Balt/AZ. But I am gonna watch no matter who plays.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

I am definitely hoping for a Pittsburgh/Philadelphia Super Bowl. I am also hoping for a very low scoring defensive battle. In fact, I hope that it is tied at zero at the end of regulation. Then after nearing the end of the second overtime I hope Donovan McNabb gets sacked in the end zone by James Harrison for a safety. How cool would that be for a Super Bowl to end with the score 2-0? And even better would be Donovan McNabb whining at the press conference that he didnt know that the other team could score two points by sacking him in the end zone. :roll:

And with a score like 2-0, my Superbowl Squares would actually win $$$$... c'mon and give me some good numbers this year... :lol:

Anyone else ready to shoot themselves if the Ravens win, the first time some dumb ass local sports anchor chirps "Looks like this Superbowl is going to be FOR THE BIRDS!!!!" (CUE FAKE LAUGHTER FROM CO- ANCHORS). Ugh.

Okay, you guys have talked about it enough so I am watching football today. I know basically nothing about these teams but have a basic knowledge of the game.

So since turning on the game, I have seen the Eagles get a field goal and Cardinals 2 TDs and its now 21-6. Are the Eagles suppose to win this? Really?

Also, just so I'm ready for game 2, are the Steelers suppose to win?

I think the Cardinals and Steelers were favored to win, but many here wanted the Eagles (though it doesn't look like that will happen).

So enjoy because this is a great game for scoring. The next maybe more a defensive battle.

My money went on Cardinals/Ravens. Halfway there.
