Wildcards:
Packers beat 49ers (Green Bay is way better than their record, Gore is out of gas, SF lost 6 of 8 on the road this year) 
Saints beat Eagles (the only team who can find more ways to waste talent than Philly is Dallas)
KC beats Colts (really this one could go either way)
Bengals over Chargers (Chargers only beat KC's junior varsity team 'cause Succop gagged)

Division round:
Packers beat Panthers (Carolina has played way beyond their capabilities and Rodgers is in fighting form)
Seahawks beat Saints (all 5 Saints losses this year were on the road)
Patriots beat Bengals (Andy Ginger gets his ass handed to him)
Broncos crush KC (C'mon, we all know how this season turns out)

Conference finals:
Seahawks beat Packers (Lacy goes down in Carolina and suddenly one-dimensional Rodgers throws 3 picks) 
Broncos beat Patriots (like I said...)

Super Bowl:  Denver wraps up game by halftime. Brock Osweiler starts third quarter, torches Seattle D for 3 scores, Browns withdraw their interest in Dan Quinn for their newly vacated head coaching position.  Manning announces retirement, shows up in workout gear next fall at the Meadowlands.  Favre hires Eli as special teams coach for his high school team.

I believe he's saying a word that the forum would censor if I tried to type it for you.

Jones has been grooming Garrett for the job for a long time. Jones has no idea what a sunk cost is. So Jones will keep his HC that doesn't call plays and gives no coaching advantage over just about everybody else in the league.

Better than paying him to coach for you!

No way SF beats Seattle at home.



Yeah, Cincinnati and Denver have been the two hotter teams down the stretch, but of the Bengals do make the second round, they will have to hit the road.

With Geno Atkins, I'd take the Bengals. Without him, I really just don't trust Andy Dalton enough.

Maybe so....but the Hawks still need to clean up the D as far as penalties, they have had a lot of them and dumb ones to boot. You can do that to Rams, Cards...but soon as you do that to 49ers or Saints that will usually cost you 6 points. And in this new season you have to play flawlessly.....the Hawks O has been blah too.
Sea D is awesome but they are very cocky...I fear that will bite them in a playoff game. They either loose to 49ers by 4 points or beat them by 3TDs. Its a toss up for me but gotta pick one........

But really, what a game. I figured Orton would be fine enough but he played way better than anyone could've realistically expected. More shocking, that garbage Dallas defense held up fairly well, and made some real big plays/stops. 
Credit where it's due, that was better than expected but wow, what a dreadful pass to end it all. 


Orton had a really great game and then undid it all with his last throw.

It was actually some of the best football I've seen Dallas play all year.  Their O line was outstanding on the pass rush.  Their D played very well although Foles and McCoy still put up pretty good numbers.  The big shock to me was the Eagles secondary, they were outstanding when they needed to be, especially against Bryant.  Boykin breaking up the TD pass and Williams breaking up the 2 pt conversion were absolutely awesome plays.

I think the Eagles even have a chance next week, the Saints are pretty awful on the road.  Although if they get shut down on the pass rush like they did last night Brees is going to kill them, obviously.  Looking forward to the playoffs!


Dallas dominated on both sides of the line. This both shocked me and mad me very sad. The defense came up big when it needed to though. Cary Williams is hard to figure out. He oscillates between good and terrible at troubling frequency.

I think Saints @ Eagles gives the Eagles the best shot to win out of any possible playoff scenario. Temperature should be in the 20s, Eagles have had a dominant defensive line before that Dallas game just occurred, and they can score right along with the Saints.

And I'm actually glad they got that last TD. We all want a fair game, and while it pains me Dallas got screwed with that play cock thing. WTF was that? Lol nvm 40 you have 25 now. Thankfully that didn't end up impacting the game. 
Unlike...

Oh wow, not only did KC almost beat the bolts with an entirely second string team but just saw the not called penalty with the 7 Chargers lined up on one side. Tsk tsk, always some problem! 
I'm hesitant to say this because this one legit issue will give MoM a loaded assault rifle to fire, but looks like Yinzerburgh got screwed out of the post season. Even though he'll never accept this (easier to blame others) Pitt kinda dug their own grave with that bad a start. 
What a whacky ass year, onto the playoffs! 


When did I not accept it, you ? Seriously, I'm tired of your sh*t. I've complained about the players and the coaches directly for years and still you give this utter bullsh*t. They are a bad football team, so are the Chargers, so were the Dolphins and Ravens. The only thing the Steelers managed to be yesterday is the only one of the four that didn't choke (results aside, the chargers choked). Pointing out accurately that the league has screwed a team doesn't mean I'm absolving them from being sh*tty, you . So sick of your garbage.


Time always wins.

All four were awful and three out of the four choked (but for a kicker and a league that conveniently won't review a clear fumble). That is all. Finally done with football. Shame on me for watching this long.


Yeah that's what the league did...

You should be mad that the Steelers where abysmal for most of the season rather than complaining about the Chargers.
