This is probably the last time Manning plays in Gillette, i think he gets the last laugh.Plus the broncos have a sense of urgency, win now mentality.While the pats are more laid back and are building for long term. Plus I have zero confidence in our defense as always.
OK. I've managed to claw my way to 12th place in the Contest basically by taking the spread and staying around the O/U line all season. This week that would mean my pick should be exactly the opposite of the above, especially given the Pats' up-and-down play this season. But this is Peyton's first cold-weather game of the season with a wind chill in the teens and dropping at game time and maybe a little snow blowing in the air. This is the kind of game the Pats and Brady usually win...and that's what they will do today.
