If NE loses, then Peyton and the Broncos should get a first round bye in the playoffs and would only have to travel if they end up playing the Texans. I just don't see the Broncos losing in their remaining 2 games with the Browns and the Chiefs.
This would be a huge step to getting Peyton to another Super Bowl. Go Niners!

I think it's pretty safe to say that the Patriots are going down tonight!!
I'd love to see a rematch of the Broncos and Falcons in the Super Bowl.

Would be a good game. I think the Broncos D could handle the Falcons.

May be premature on two points there my friend . . .
#1 As much as I dislike Brady and the Pats, you can't ever count them out.
#2 If the Vikings make it in as a Wildcard, there is some payback due for 1998!
+1
"Old School"! A strong defense wins championships!

They sure didn't the first time they met. And the Falcons picked Peyton an unbelievable three times in tne first quarter.

That's sure been the case ( No.1). 31-3 and Brady brought them back. But the 49ers are still alive. What a game!

Great game, but it is looking like the 49ers had the answer. All Brady did was cost me in FF with his almost comeback. My wife had him in her league and she is 2 points short of her getting a crack at the FF SuperBowl.
EDIT: Brady got 2 more points and her FF playoff game ended in a tie. She has the calculator out trying to figure out if she won with the tiebreaker.

Yeah, I was thinking about that. But the Broncos are a different team now.
Here's hoping to see that match-up.

True, but he seemed to figure them out and got hot in the second half. If I remember correctly, the Broncos needed one more defensive stop for a chance to win the game at the end. Basically a tale of two halves. Since that game was played in Atlanta, I'd like the Broncos chances next time around. Gettin' way ahead of ourselves though.

I hope it happens. It would be a classic. And I would be seriously conflicted.
