Please, NO MORE NFC teams talk

The teams in the NFC have, absolutely, no say in who is going to win XLI.

Name an NFC team who will make it to the SB, and I will name 6 AFC teams that will beat them. EVERYONE knows that the winner of the AFC Championship game should just be crowned the SB winner. No one is interested in the NFC. I'd rather watch the paint dry, than watch any NFC matchup.

The only thing that the weaker Conference gets is the front row seat to a AFC SUPER BOWL WINNER show.

What a joke...
The Bears can play with any team in the AFC.  The only team that scares me is San Diego.  Other than SD, no team in the AFC will beat the Bears.  And here's the kicker, you go ahead and name 6 teams that can beat the Bears and I'll show you 5 of six that won't get to play them.

13-2 record in the NFC
Is as much of an achievement as an AFC team with a 10 win season.

I'll do better than name teams who can beat the bears. I'll name AFC non playoff teams who which would be playoff teams if they were in the weaker Conference. Here's the list: Chiefs, Jags, Bengals, and Dolphins. And, here's a list of teams those teams would beat out of playoff spots: Eagles, Cowb*tches, Seahawks, and Giants. If those teams switch conferences, your NFC playoff teams wouldn't stand a chance playing in the better Conference.

"GO HORSE!"

6 Teams that can beat the Bears
- Miami - New England - San Diego - Baltimore - Indianapolis - Denver The first two have already beaten you this season. San Diego and Baltimore are about 90% probability I would think. Indy beat the Pats, who beat the Bears, so that one's likely as well. Denver is a bit more of a stretch, but your criteria was "can", not "will". I'd give Denver 50-50 on the Bears. To back it up, here's some who came close: - Detroit - Arizona - Minnesota (twice) - Tampa Bay If you can barely beat the worst teams in the NFC (and definitely not "Any Given Sunday", since it's happened 5 times this season), how are you going to beat playoff caliber teams from the AFC, which is clearly the stronger conference this year?

considering we kicked your ass
I don't know how you can say that. Any team in the league, that includes the likes of Oakland and Detroit, can beat anyone on any given Sunday.

You think you would have learned that after getting beat by Houston, who definitely aren't as good as any NFC playoff team.

Exactly....
You guys are nuts.  Freakin Texans!!  The Texans!!!!  But if the transitive property of football exists (which is doesn't)  The Bears beat the Jets.  The Jets beat the Dolphins.  The Dolphins Beat the Bears.  Therefore the Bears can beat the Bears!!!!!!

The transitive property of sports does not exist so your lame ass explanation (above) does not apply.

Overall, the aside from San Diego, the Bears would be a favorite in the Super Bowl over ANY other AFC team.

No, it's definitely you two.
We're nuts? You can barely beat the worst of the NFC, and you're crowing about how you're going to beat playoff caliber teams from the stronger conference.

Wha?
You're the team that just lost to the dregs of the NFL and you think you can win a Super Bowl.  We had nothing to play for and still won on the road.  You have to be kidding.

Bad Teams
I'm not arguing that we've lost to bad teams, I'm arguing that the Bears have lost to bad teams. It's a fact.

BTW...
I highly doubt that Baltimore can beat the Bears.  Highly.  No matter, they won't beat the Chargers.  What you say?  They already beat them?  Yes, in Baltimore.

Baltimore
You'll note I didn't include Baltimore in my list of teams that could beat the Bears. I think that would all depend on which McNair shows up - Air McNair or "Rare" (as in smells bad) McNair.

Baltimore...
Is not that good.

They have a very poor receiving corp and an old and average running game.  Jamal Lewis is not the spring chicken he used to be.  McNair is still a good QB but let's face it he middle of the pack for the NFL.  I don't fear them at all.

But of course, their defense is VERY good.
