Two very competitive games and then obviously a Super Bowl to play just two weeks away.

Now, here's the Francesca 5.

Let me give you the games and then a couple of props for this championship Sunday.

Game number one, New England.

It has bounced back and forth as a four and a half to five favorite,

obviously because of the big injury that Denver suffered with Knicks at quarterback,

which puts Stidham in the position of having to take the Broncos to the Super Bowl.

He hasn't played in a couple of years.

He's really only played four NFL games.

He was ironically drafted by Vilbelichick and the Pats years ago and was considered, you know,

maybe the heir apparent at those times.

So the Pats thought highly of him.
