8:18 am
$35,000. paula? >> for one ticket, right? one ticket, amy. >> reporter: one ticket. >> well, glad you have the media pass. enjoy the game tonight, amy. and the seahawks headed to a big game after a stunning come from behind victory over the packers. in the nfc championship game. i think the packers are still recovering. now the seahawks are looking far back-to-back super bowl crowns. the patriots have claimed the title three times. haven't hoisted that lombardi trophy in a decade. time to bring in espn football analyst, former nfl quarterback, and can we say, a "gma" favorite, jesse palmer to the show. jesse, we have been inundated, whether we like it or not, with deflate-gate. the patriots are painted as the villains. will they use the us versus them mentality to their advantage >> yeah paula. i think it's an us versus the world mentality that they're going to use. it's the rallying cry they'll
8:19 am
use to their advantage in the game. i think they feel slighted in a lot of ways. the last few weeks hasn't been about the special season, the fact that they blew out the indianapolis colts in the afc championship game. it's all been about the deflate-gate. they're the villain in the super bowl. they're the team a lot of fans are cheering against. this us versus the world mentality, certainly a rallying cry they're going to hope to use to their advantage tonight. >> playing with the chip on their shoulder. so break it down, jesse. what are the keys to this game? >> two huge keys, paula. these teams have to run the football. they have to play great defense. we know marshawn lynch, legarrette blount, they will have to wear down the defenses. i think defensively for the seahawks they want to be able to get pressure on tom brady with only four guys. so they can keep as many guys in coverage as they can. the patriots have to keep russell wilson in the pocket. he's the most dangerous quarterback in the nfl when he
8:20 am
gets outside the tackle box. running the football and defense, two huge keys. >> patriots favored by one. who is your pick? >> paula, as a former quarterback, i can't believe i'm about to say this. >> uh-oh. >> but defense wins championships. the seahawks, the last three years, have been the best defense in the nfl. i think tonight, that comes through and shows up. i think if they win tonight they can honestly make an argument to maybe be the greatest defense to ever play in the nfl. i expect tonight to be a close game. i think the seahawks win. i now have to find a $35,000 ticket. so i can watch the game. >> jesse, with all due respect. i know you played football. i have never been close to a gridiron gridiron. ever. but you're wrong. my hometown team will win. but we still love you. >> i am laughing in your face if seattle wins. >> jesse, thank you so much. enjoy the game. >> he's going to be laughing in my face, perhaps. let's get to rob for another look at the weather. good morning, again, sir.
8:21 am
>> by the way, the forecast for the area inconsequential, as paula mentioned yesterday. >> they have a dome. they may not use it. >> and a retractable field. lincoln, nebraska, no stranger to good football.>> this storm got cranking yesterday, it is in chicago for a short time this afternoon. we're thinking when we get toward the northeast. watch the numbers as the storm approaches getting over the freezing mark, that's why we'll see a wintry mix. philadelphia all rain, that's where the forecast gets a little interesting to say the least. it's cold behind this system, frigidly cold through the middle of the week. that's a look at the national outlook, here's what's happening locally. >> reporter: good morning, everyone, i'm meteorologist chris sowers with that accuweather update. double scan showing we're clear in delaware valley a few flurries showing up in across
