Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. NO would have lost to NE too. See!? That's just my opinion. KC is a damn good team, but they lost the Championship game.. so the better team that Sunday goes to the SB. NO are a damn good team, but they lost their Championship game.. so the better team that Sunday goes to the SB. You are correct though, KC v NO would have been a hell of a game. You are also incorrect, both defenses showed up on Feb.3rd and it was a blast to watch.. nothing high schoolish about it at all. Save for a few key offensive misses by the Rams, that game could easily have gone the other way - DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS and the Patriots proved that to be true. Offensive "shoot-outs" are fun to watch, defensive battles are intense.. that was one intense SB!
