Ask the Expert Question: With the playoff field largely set, which two teams do you believe will meet at the Meadowlands in the Super Bowl?

With the playoff field largely set, which two teams do you believe will meet at the Meadowlands in the Super Bowl?

Seattle versus Denver with Peyton Manning getting the Super Bowl win in his record breaking season-its his destiny.

Dark horses to replace one of those top teams-Philadelphia or New Orleans in the NFC and/or New England in the AFC.

If I was placing a wild bet in Vegas on some long shot-I like either BAL or SD at 80-1 or PHI at 25-1. In any case, early February in New York promises to be a fun event.

ASK THE EXPERTS appears weekly at http://www.fantasyindex.com/ with answers to a new question posted Thursday morning.
