C’mon Chuck!  How could you take the Pats?  Well this is what you get for going against my #GMEN!

During a radio appearance before the game, Sir Charles explained his decision to put 100 large on New England. 
“I’m a big believer in ‘In God We Trust,’ and I trust in Belichick, bro,” Barkley said via SportsRadioInterviews.com. “I’m going with the New England Patriots. … I’m almost changed the plane to go to Vegas because I wanted to get the 2.5. … Three scares the hell out of me.”

Barkley was also asked about a host of prop bets, none of which he got right (though he pushed on two!), and predicted a final score of 31-17, New England.

“I tell you, I don’t think it’s going to be close,” he said. “As quiet as it’s kept, New England had the worst defense ever to make the Super Bowl, but if you look back at the playoffs, they’ve been one of the best defenses in the playoffs and I think that’s going to continue.”

Well, Chuck was right about one thing: the Pats’ defense wasn’t the reason they lost. It was some combination ofJustin Tuck, Tom Brady and Wes Welker.

Barkley weighed in on the second biggest storyline of Super Bowl week, too: Peyton Manning, who appears to have played his last game for the Colts.

“My first opinion is I don’t think Peyton Manning should play football again. You’re talking about a neck,” Barkley said. “I know he’s got a couple young twins. I don’t think he should play football at all. But I think the Colts have got to let him go. You can’t pay two quarterbacks. First of all, the team’s not going to be very good next year, to be honest with you, so why would he want to play on a bad team?”
