I can't believe no one took the Jets.

Last night's game pissed me off. Baltimore blew so many good opportunities. The final score doesn't really give justice to just how well the Ravens played for 3/4 of the game. All Peyton Manning needs is one or two calls to go his way.
Anyways, can we discuss that "pass interference" call on the interception? I thought that was total bs and cemented the win for Indy.

I was given a scare....but my confidence has been rewarded. The Cowboys have blown it yet again!!!
Nah, I will give them their due, they just got flat out beaten. That Vikings defense was SIIIIICK! Also Sidney Rice is my MVP for the game. What a great game.

You mean the CB shoving the WR completely out of the play so that Reed could make an easy pick isn't interference to you? You also can't win a playoffs game against the 1 seed with an offense that bad so I don't see how the Ravens got anything but a fair beating.
As for nobody picking the Jets: would have against Indy because I think they match up well with them but I believe the Chargers just have too much for them to handle
People who got hosed this week: Sean Payton and Rex Ryan because either could have easily won the Coach of the Year had they not got "Rooney Ruled" out of it by someone who let his team fall apart once again in the face of adversity. Marvin Lewis is a joke of a head coach and I'm shocked that he's kept his job this long, let alone won a major award. Silliness.
As for the other games that have been played: Never get on a Dallas bandwagon; they beat the same team they beat twice before last week, wasn't a big deal. The true Cowboys showed up in Minnesota. Not to take anything away from Favre's crew, mind you, they played a helluva game and the NFC Championship should be a blast next week.
Don't know what to say about the Saints other than they impressed me (as someone who picked Arizona) greatly, especially on defense.

Cowboys shot themselves in the foot in the first half. Vikings cleaned up the second half. I had to turn off the game... it was like watching my child (if i had one) getting molested (GROSS!!!). Anyways, Vikings / Saints should be exciting.
I just wanna see some close games.

Oh my God it was painful watching the Ravens....I felt so bad for those guys with those mistakes. Can't believe the Vikings showed up today. I almost would be more relieved had they lost. Now they got my hopes all up, only to be crushed once again  C'mon though, how bout freakin' Percy Harvin and Sidney Rice. Man those guys just amaze me.

Jets just outplayed the Chargers. I'm shocked, but it happened.
I hate NY, but I'm glad the Jets won. I like their style of play and I like Rex Ryan. Plus Norv Turner is an idiot so it's nice to see him lose.

Wow, talk about a defense getting it done. J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets, i guess
Went 2-2 in predictions this weekend but I'm far happier to be 2-2 than 3-1 especially with all the dejected reaction shots of Rivers at the end of that game. Sorry baby, no SB for you this year.

Well since I'm way behind with my record I would have to take Vikings and the Jets.

I don't know much about the AFC, but am I correct that the Colts are the best team in football?
Should the Vikings happen to pull off a win next week, does anyone think there is any way conceivable they beat Indianapolis?

The Colts have their flaws, but yeah I think they're the best team in football. That being said the Vikings could certainly pull a win off. I don't think they will if the situation arrises, but the 2009 Colts aren't exactly a team for the ages.

All I know is that if they DO beat the Saints, I'm going to be a nervous wreck. 4 lost super bowls do that  What is the deal with the Pro-bowl being before the SB? Are teams in the SB actually going to risk the injury of key stars to let them play in that stupid game?

still up in the air of the NFC title game

Nobody wants to watch the Pro-Bowl, me included. This is an attempt to keep it relevant and get some ratings. No team in their superbowl will have their players play

The Chargers sure showed everyone what an "All-Around" team they were. The Jets shut them down, complete and total. I actually thought the Chargers were a good football team this year. Goodbye, Bolts (forever!)
That call to on-side the kick with over two minutes to go was the worst call. Hey Norv - your'e fired!!!
Hey Rivers Go-home! Hey L.T. thanks alot for nothing and your stupid dance video, too
When it came time to put-up, The Chargers had nothing, What a con job. Losers Losers!!
"Mommy"
"Yes, Billy?"
"When will The Chargers win a championship?"
"Never Billy"
Go Vikings, Saints, Jets n Colts

I actually enjoyed watching The Bolts go down, seeing the utter look of confusion on their faces, shaking their heads, not knowing what to do. Or how...........
