Steelers are out , which is a dissapointment.  Ah well, there's always  next year.

Yepper, one more win and we would have been ok, but we didn't deserve it by our play. I gotta wonder if anyone will get past SD this year, even with Indy, MN, NO, and the rest in the mix. It is gonna be a good playoffs.

I've always been more of an NFC fan more than an AFC fan, so here's hoping the Saints take it all!  Saints and Colts in the Superbowl would make me pretty happy.  Actually, I want Indy to lose now since they pulled that shit of sitting their starters against the Jets, effectively THROWING the game, which should not only be illegal, but heavily penalized and fined.  If you're going to keep Pete Rose out of the Hall of Fame because he bet his team would WIN (we call it pride, where I come from), then you keep every one of those Colts out of the Hall for purposely losing that game.  That game was NOT a lock, and affected the playoff picture for the AFC.  On that same note, the Colts kept saying they are not concerned with records, only the Super Bowl, yet they continue to start Manning every game to keep HIS record going.  Hypocritcal and full of shit!  SO, I guess I say go Saints vs. Chargers, with the Saints winning!  I can't stand Phillip Rivers!

Yeah Pat, I agree. Listening to Polian defend his decision made me want to go throw up.

VIKING"S beat the cowboy's woohoooo

Beat, it was more like a mauling. So much for my playoff challenge that had three cowboys on it. Oh well, its sure gonna be a good NFC championship this year. It is amazing what the Jets have been able to pull off to. Reminds me of the Steelers run that one year. They were the last seed and managed to pull it off. I understand that Rex Ryan has given his players the schedule for the Superbowl parage after thier win already. LOL. You gotta like a winning attitude.

if we " maul" New Orleans then we go to the superbowl

[Clonehead]

My prediction was right. Alright, Shawn, who do you think is going to the superbowl?

I would say right now it will be a Vikings / Indy Superbowl, but Indy isn't gonna have it as easy as they did with the Ravens this time.

[Phatty]

See, I'm pulling for Drew Brees and the Saints over the Viqueens!  Being a Chicago native and Bears Fan, Can't ever route for them or Favre!  And as far as the Jets/Colts game, I really hope the Jets spank the Colts.  Karma can be an ugly bride...

[Clonehead]

I do not doubt that the Vikes and Saints game will be close. I just have a feeling about that one.
The colts certainly have had a few good years now. Tamer, I do concur.

[Clonehead]

Well, the Colts got in, and the Vikings and Saints game is looking close. Could be luck of the draw, there.

[Tamer]

I am telling you this Vikes/Saints game is so close. It is gonna be anyone's guess who wins it. I tell you one thing though. I don't take anything away from Peyton, but to me this seems like the NFC's year for a superbowl. I don't see how Indy could get by either one.

[Phatty]

It cracked me up: one of the announcers at halftime of the Saints/Vikings game actually said, "I'm telling you, the team that scores the most points in this half is going to win the game."  Mind you, the game is tied.  Thank you Captain Obvious. 

Half of me wanted the Colts to lose.  It would have served them right for throwing the game against the Jets in week 16.  The other half of me wanted a guaranteed team to root for in the SB.  I could care less about the Jets, and a Jets/Vikings SB has absolutely no appeal for me.  I'm definitely pulling for the Saints to win this game, and the SB overall.

[Tamer]

One team scores and then the other one does. The Saints had the lead for like ten seconds. That fumble by Peterson and Favre at the end of the first half I think they will regret.
