Nice - I did the same when it was the Giants/Pats in the past 
How can you not root for them? They're going to be underdogs yet - AGAIN - and they just keep proving everybody wrong.
I just don't get all of those who state it's not going to be at least a good game. I can't see them getting blown out.
Their worst loss (you can throw out that Dallas loss at the end of the year) was a 24-10 loss in Seattle when they were even in that game. Lost earlier on in season in Arrowhead when the Chiefs were hot and were in that game.
They're a very good football team - not weak in one area - a 'team'.
Could they lose? Of course. Everybody is expecting it. I'm expecting them to pull out a tight win - I just can't see them getting smoked and think it will be a great game.
I think rooting interest is kind of it’s own personal demon. Here in Pittsburgh it’s pretty split because whilst Steeler fans hate the Patriots As much as anyone, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia has its own interstate rivalry that is most prominent in hockey but exists in just about any facet of life. So people in my town are kind of split on who they’re rooting for.
