do you have to physically type "peace" all the time or does it just magically appear?
Physically.

11.5 against that defense easy money i'll take the jags with points ....that would be awsome if the pats lose this game ,perfect would not be even a subject ....
The New York contingent really needs to get over their petty envy of the Boston sports world these days. You guys should put more energy into rooting for the Giants.
come now it's all in fun why can't we root against the boston teams that's what makes it that much more special ,and yeah the patriots are the best team ever ever i realize that ....

not a mention about the atrocity of their sports teams
The NY teams are sad, I think even the Bruins have more points than the Rangers so what do the NY fans have left? They turn heckling and badgering or worse.

it's called sarcasm, yeah our teams all suck i'm ok with that it's not the end of life ,they will get better boston can be on top of the sports world for a while after all they sucked at everything for a very long time and they will suck again that's just the nature of the sports world ....

That defense gave up 337 yards passing to the Steelers.
The Steelers were ranked 22nd in passing for the year.
The Pats passing attack is miles ahead of the Steelers.
you can read the full based on the link, but i liked these snapshots:
"The Jaguars won a physical matchup in Pittsburgh last week, but they'll have to do it again against an even stronger Patriots team this weekend. Below is a breakdown of where these teams stand heading into Saturday's AFC Divisional playoff game:
If you like the Patriots ...
» Jacksonville is only 5-3 on the road (6-3 with playoffs) averaging 25 points per game.
» The Patriots average 34 points a game at home and only give up 13 per game.
» Garrard was averaging just 1 interception every 108 passes but last week had 2 in 21.
» In the last 3 games Laurence Maroney rushed 59 times for 306 yards and 4 TDs.
» Brady on the deep ball (over 30 yards): 13-for-25, 622 yards, 8 TDs (48 yds per reception).
If you like the Jaguars ...
» The Jags got to Ben Roethlisberger for six sacks and 3 interceptions.
» The Jags are averaging 33.5 points over their last six regular season games and last week's playoff game.
» The Jags defense now has 14 interceptions in their last 8 games.
» Fred Taylor has averaged 100 yards rushing over his last 6 games.
» Watch out for the Jags special teams. Maurice Jones Drew now has a 100- and a 96-yard return."
and
Key matchups
1. Patriots WR Randy Moss vs. Jaguars CB Rashean Mathis: Moss wins rebounds, gets vertical and runs more inside routes than most believe he does. There will be times when Mathis will have him alone, and it will not go unnoticed by Brady.
2. Patriots WR Wes Welker vs. Jaguars FS Reggie Nelson: Nelson is talented but is in over his head in this matchup. He may get a big-time hit or two on Welker for some 'wow' factor, but in the end Welker will get close to 10 receptions. If Nelson goes over the top to help on Moss, Welker will beat the nickel back all day.
3. Patriots RG Stephen Neal vs. Jaguars DT Jon Henderson: Henderson, who could have returned to the lineup last week, will need to collapse the pocket from the inside. Brady loves to step up and throw right where Henderson should be bull-rushing Neal. Neal will battle but he also needs Brady to move around a bit in the pocket. ***EDIT - I made a mistake - Mike Peterson is out and this has been confirmed by Del Rio. Henderson hasn't been practicing due to him bum hamstring and if he doesn't play Landri (a rookie) would get the start ***
4. Patriots NT Vince Wilfork vs. Jaguars OC Brad Meester: The Jags want to run the ball and it starts with controlling the nose tackle in the Patriots' 3-4 defense. If Meester needs constant help on Wilfork, the Patriots will have a free defender to stop the run. Meester is an underrated center but he's up against an all-pro nose tackle coming off a week's rest. The edge goes to Wilfork.
5. Patriots RDE Richard Seymour vs. Jaguars LT Kalif Barnes: Barnes is a much improved tackle but he is lined up against a great DE in Seymour. Seymour has not been as productive this season as in years past but I expect a big postseason from him. Barnes may get caught for a holding call or two in this matchup.
CBS analysts Phil Simms and Dan Dierdorf shared their thoughts on the Jaguars-Patriots matchup on a conference call today.
Here is some of what they had to say, courtesy of CBS' media relations department:
Phil Simms
(On Jacksonville) "If they’re looking for a physical football game, they’re going to the right spot. The Patriots love the action. I always say be afraid of the people who love the action. They’re not so concerned about winning and losing, they just want to ruffle it up a little."
(On Jacksonville-New England) "These are teams with two distinct styles. Who can win the early battles will determine the style of game it will be. That’s what Jacksonville is going to try and do…When you play the Patriots you try to play the game, get it into the fourth quarter and try to make the play that wins."
(On New England QB Tom Brady) "What makes him a great NFL quarterback is when you give him the opportunity, he can make the play. I don’t care about all the intangibles. That’s all wonderful. The intangible I look at first, if the guy is open 20-yards down the field, the coverage is tight – can you stick it in there? And Tom Brady can stick it in there. Oh, he’s open way down the field, you have to throw it 65-yards to Randy Moss? He can do that. His greatness of throwing the football has enabled him to do all this other stuff we always talk about.
(On New England being a television draw) "That big zero has gotten the nation curious. We’re all curious. I’m curious. I can’t wait. I want to see, can they do this (go undefeated)? Being an ex-player, and now a broadcaster, I find it extremely exciting. I’ve probably focused on the Patriots more this year than I have any other team since I’ve been doing television just because I find it intriguing."
(On possibility of an Indianapolis-New England AFC Championship and their rivalry) "You have two marquee quarterbacks who are always involved in this contest. The coaches are the same and a lot of the key players are the same. We’re going to see them again next year too. It has it all. It has that marquee value…It is one of the best rivalries that we’ve seen in a long time. It’s as good as I’ve seen since I’ve been following the NFL."
Dan Dierdorf
(On Jacksonville being the 'team nobody wanted to play') "Jacksonville got that moniker – “the team nobody wanted to play” because of how physical they are as a hard-hitting, muscular, testosterone-filled team. And I don’t mean that in terms of illegal drugs. I’m talking about a team that muscles up when they play. They are just a reflection of Jack Del Rio."
(On what impresses about New England QB Tom Brady from an offensive lineman’s perspective) "His physical toughness and leadership ability. You want to block your [butt] off for a guy that will stand back there and take a shot. You want to block for a guy that just radiates passion the way Tom Brady does. When you look at the performance of that offensive line of the New England Patriots, there is a whole lot of one-two involved because they don’t want to disappoint the undisputable leader of that football team. Tom Brady has every intangible that you would love a quarterback to have."

weather for saturday night looks to be in the mid/upper 20s with a 10% chance of precipitation.
I LIKE THE JAGS,, nothing wrong with that
carry on the beer is waiting
thank you paul spicer.
you WANT the jags, you don't really think they WILL win.....
- Mr. Edward Vedder 7/11/03
they have a chance
pats are beatable,,that was made clear towards the end of the year
just run it down their throat. Garrard needs to play like he has all season.
Esther's here and she's sick?
hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks
i remember 3 different games where they could and should have been beat
it will happen
blah blah get over yourselves,,
same lines over and over
will always be way behind ny in general ...deal with it
really bad but now we have the GIANTS to brighten the mood for at least this week ...
right now, Boston only trails NY in population, crime, area, height of skyscrapers, taxi cabs, prostitutes....etc. ....you get the picture.
