Man....Kevin Byrne you are just awesome! I'm sooooo ready for this game!!!!!!!! Is it Sunday yet??

[TheSim]

Not a lot is said about Anquan's leadership, but when you watch him in sideline videos and in these kinds of insightful pieces, you can see that he's much more than just some physical possession receiver, he's a true veteran in the way Derrick Mason was before him.

Hey Kevin,

I enjoy readiing your articles each week. I just have one litte favor to ask you. There have been a lot of last minute victories this year. My heart stopped a few times last week. I am still crushed from last years loss to the Patriots. Can you tell the team to win like they did a few years ago when we had the 24-0 lead in the second quarter. Tell them to kick the snot out of them so we can enjoy a "laugher". Thank you!

Here's another little statistical nugget for fans to chew on:
The Pats finished with the third highest regular season point total in NFL History.
The teams with the first, second, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh highest point totals in history failed to win the Super Bowl.

Professionalism is professionalism, but motivation matters.Morale matters. Swagger matters. Emotion matters.

They can sharpen the focus. Increase the discipline. Get you over the pain. Release the adrenaline.

So yes, the spread on paper may be 9.5. But you tell me who is favored on the field? A Yankee-like organization who just expects to be there at all costs, including cutting players at the last second to get inches of advantage? Or a franchise and city and fan base who's about to have it's heart torn out when our general retires? A team whose coach lives up to it's agreement with free agents and gives them a fair shot. A team that's lost its pioneer owner. A team thats consoled its own after losing family along the way? A team of characters with character?

Fixed that for ya!

Thanks, revensfanintx

Telling me that the Patriots are the 3rd highest scoring team of all time really made me feel better.

[mistaonehunnit]

If you remember the 2000 season when we won the super bowl this year feels much like it I think we can do it!!

[MikeMan2727]

It never ceases to amaze me how well Kevin Byrne writes. Another great article!

[caw710]

Of course were ready to win. I beleive they are more afraid of fasing the Ravens then we are of them. You can hear it in the way there talking.
Go get um' UNDERDOGS, take those patsies down!
