Tom.....right now the entire NFL is wide open.

I am waiting for that one team to show me why they deserve to be in the Super Bowl. I am not being biased here, but Miami has really showed me something in the past 2 weeks. Those road wins are HUGE! Here is a team that would have lost those games last year but has shown the character and resolve to come through in the clutch (i.e. they are growing up).

Now, I think Miami will become the clear cut favorite once they get Richmond Webb back at LT and Marino healthy. The thing that impresses me most is that they are sticking with the running game this year, although it is not exactly setting the league on fire, they are being stubborn about it.

And Tony Martin makes a big difference to that team. What were his numbers in Atlanta this time last year compared to this year? I'll bet they are about the same. And what is Miami's record compared to Atlanta's?
