Wow, Granted the Broncos did not look very good today but they are not often underdogs of more than 3 at home.

I'm not sure why that surprises you. It's the playoffs. The best of the best. NE has been playing better. Spread sounds about right to me.

To be honest I am cashing out after reaching my financial goals for this season by cashing a sleazy teaser. But my point is that Denver with that D and getting 3.5 @ home is almost an auto play, go run a query on it but I am a homer so take it with a grain of salt.

According to ESPN Stats & Info:

Tom Brady is 2-6 all time in Denver (including playoffs). The two QBs he beat were Danny Kannell and Tim Tebow. This offense that Denver runs has had decent success against Belichick as well going back to the Mike Shanahan days.

Do you think Brady is going to show up and not run the ball?

I hate to be part of an obvious pick but NE looks too easy. From the Brady/Belichick history of dominating Manning (and that is when he was good) to how Denver was outplayed by a severely wounded Pitt in their house no less.
KC was no slouch, in fact they were the hottest team in the NFL and NE made them look bad. NE sure looks like the side to me.

Public perception is NE just looked great vs a hot team , while Denver struggled @home vs a wounded foe.
In this game Denver has much better match ups across the board and it was proven by beating them earlier in the year with Brock as QB.

Denver at home .Great Defense. a 3pt dog. I'll be on Denver for sure.:103631605

I'm not quite following your comment. On the one hand, you talk about Denver and then you talk about the QBs he's beat. Which is it? If it's the QBs he's beat, then shouldn't you be looking at the history between Manning and Brady?
