I think you should have my sig, we'll change the sign to BCWWF at the top.
No one said that no other team can beat the Pats. But when you look at the teams, the stats, the records and the fact that Manning usually chokes in big games, you have to favor a Pats vs. Steelers AFC Championship.
That's not saying no one can beat the Pats or the Steelers, of course, any team can win on any day, but it would be an upset, the Pats or Steelers would be favored against every other team in the AFC.
I watched the first 1/2 of the Colts game today and Manning was horrible, he was confused, making mistakes, whiney, and lost composure, it's the same thing that always happens to him in big games.
I didn't see the 2nd half, but by seeing the final score, he got his stuff together, this was a huge step for Manning and shows an ability he has never show'd before.
That being said, the Pats and Steelers are still the favorites and people will pick them.
No one is "assuming" the Pats and Steelers will go the the AFC championship, they're being picked based on stats, coaching, etc...
