Who are the X-factors for each team in Div finals?

[Dude]

Call me crazy, but I think it's Jackson for the Pats, they've been grooming him for this type of game.
Go!
Edit: meant conference final, sorry, if a mod is kind enough to correct, much obliged

Did you mean Championship Finals? For the Broncos I think it is Chris Harris. If he can shut down Edelman or at least contain him then that would be huge in giving the Broncos a great shot of shutting down the Patriots offense.

....how'bout = chandler jones: with 2.5/sacks, one-fumble/recovery , 2-balls swatted-away...!?

Thanks for the correction, I meant conference finals, lol, what an idiot I am.

No you are crazy. Short yardage man all the way but that's it.

for me.. Rob Nickovich.. 2 sacks, 1 turnover.

He could definitely step up, great player, needs to get the sacks

Regarding Jackson, short yardage yes, but he could make a difference, not much else in the backfield as far as power running goes, and I think we'll need some of that for this game.

 

[Dude]

What about other teams? Let's hear your predictions, don't be shy ...

For sure that will be interesting, for the Broncos I was leaning more toward ol' Peyton, he could have a great game, he's done it before.

I guess my thought is he could have an average day if the run game is strong. If Harris has a bad day though and Edelman goes off it really makes it where the Broncos are trying to pick your poison of doubling Gronk or doubling Edelman.

Good point, not sure Edelman attracts double coverage though, his routes are too short and crisp. Pats secondary is pretty good but gives up big plays, which plays right into Peyton's hand. I'm worried about the Pats being able to establish a semblance of run game.

 

[Dude]

White could have a big game for the Pats, they are going to need those short pass plays out of the backfield and this guy rocks pretty good.

 

[Dude]

Watching SB I?
Wow, funny where the goal posts used to be ...

 

[JohnShadows]

Cards: David Johnson, Panthers: Ginn or Funchess (maybe Ryan Delaire or Kony Ealy on D, with Jared Allen's injury).

 

[MileHigh64]

Bennie Fowler (WR) Broncos. Dude will be clutch and make a couple of big catches when the Pats are focused on stopping DT and Sanders.

No run game is needed. You have been listening to Mike Ditka again, change the channel.

 

[Balljim55]

For the Panthers I go with Kawain Short. If he gets consistent pressure up the middle, he could throw Palmer off his rhythm and let us blitz less

 

[Davis_Mike]

DaCannon aka Deone Bucannon. He & Jefferson will will be matched on Olsen for most of the game. The guy can do it all from $LB position.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Pats=White and Jones
Den=Oswieller and Bennie Fowler (PM has a rough day and gets replaced by Oz. Lesser receivers seem to have big games against the Pats in the POs)
Az=Fitz and Buchanon
Car=Olsen and Kuechly
Looking for two good games with no injuries
