    It would have likely been played in a snowstorm. Would have been entertaining to watch.

    Every time Blount rode shotgun with a Steeler he lit a bong and caused suspensions but anytime with a Pat he didn't. What gives? The irony of this fact is..well......ironic.

    I don't know dude. I'd say him and Chandler Jones have a VERY fruitful relationship. LOL!

    I was thinking today that it would have been cool to see a championship game in the weather they are predicting.

    Better yet, a Superbowl. The half-time show would be a joy to behold.

    It would have been to our advantage then... Patriots in the past could run the ball, but this year everyone is hurt. I think they ran only a handful of times last week.

    I think it would have been hilarious if the Super Bowl in NY would have been played in a big snow storm. I was telling somebody the other day that it seems like the Super Bowl is the least "football" even of the football season. Just more of a media event than anything else. I mean 100 million people will watch the game but I'd say a ton of those people don't watch football all year. You have to endure a ridiculously long halftime show. Tons of commercials. Basically just all the things we would complain about during a regular season game. LOL!

    Brady would have picked our secondary COMPLETELY apart... Not even a close game...

    Brady picked the bears apart in a blizzard and won the game big, Brady is the best bad weather QB in the league, I dont think a bad weather game would favor us at all, we couldnt score in good weather in our two playoff games so what makes anyone think we would have a chance against Brady in bad weather, earth to steeler fans quit dreaming nonsense.....

    Who knows what would have happened. They couldn't score against Denver and the D was gassed in the 4th. They were running on fumes. Sure it would have been great to see them against NE. Wasn't to be.
    Next season already looks promising. But with free agency looming, resigning guys, retooling the secondary and providing depth on both the D Line and the O Line guess we will see. They have a core foundation. Here is to 2016 season.

    Oh, side note: The NFC winning this year. The last thing I want to see is that Forehead or Brady win.

    If the game is played in below freezing weather or snow Brady has the edge in 46 frigid weather games brady has won 40 of them:

    Brady has proven to be one of the best cold-weather quarterbacks in the league as he’s been provided no shortage of opportunities while playing in New England.

    Best Comp Pct in Outdoor Games
    Freezing or Colder

    Since the beginning of 2001 (which is as far back as we have data for specific temperatures), Brady has had 1,031 dropbacks in 29 outdoor games at freezing or colder, both numbers the most by any quarterback in that timeframe. He has led the Patriots to a 24-5 record in those games.

    If you think Brady has an uncanny ability to throw accurate passes in the cold, you’d be right. Since the start of 2001, Brady’s 62.7 completion percentage in games played in freezing temperatures trails only Aaron Rodgers and Chad Pennington. However, it must be noted that Brady has more wins in such games than those two have combined to start.

    I didn't elude to the fact that if the Steelers got there they would win. But we will never know right?! I feel that Brady will carve up the Donkeys.

    Hmmm. Hate to say it, but deflated balls would help that out. Or maybe not, I'm sure he sent countless text messages to the ball (man) because they were "boys".
