Patriots baby!!

Could some one fill me in on the whole wildcard thing? Are Colts and Saints through because they were top of their team with a big gap, while Patriots and Jets were close so both went through from AFC East OR is it because Colts and Saints went further in last years SB?

[TheGhost]

Come on Eagles! Let's make up for last week...

[Cojafoji]

I know it's a helluva long shot, but I'm banking on the Eagles. We've had some problems this season, but god damn, when we get jumpin', good things happen. I'm counting on our loss to the Cowboys to fuel us in the rematch this Saturday.

Colts and saints are in because they won their division and they have the gap because they have the most wins in the playoff picture. Since the saints and Colts have the number one seat they have home field advantage for the playoffs and first round bye. 1st and second seats have 1st round bye: NFC: 1.Saints(13-3) 2.Vikings(12-4) AFC: 1.Colts(14-2) 2.Chargers(13-3). Those teams have the first round bye while seats 3 and 4 deal with the wild card teams which are seats 5 and 6. Seat 3 goes against seat 6, and Seat 4 goes against Seat 5. Patriots are in because they won their division, and the Jets are in because they have the most wins against and power against the other teams either did not have enough wins or tied them. You can have 3 teams from 1 division in the playoffs. All divisional winners have home field advantage against wild card teams but seats 1 and 2 have home field advantage over seats 3 and 4.

The Greatest Show on Turf is gonna roll all over y'all.... Oh wait that was back in the day. :(

Anyway, here's my predictions for this round:

Cardinals over Packers- I've watched Warner for many years now, and when this dude is on fire, watch out (See near comeback the Rams had against the Saints in the Wildcard back in 2000).

Patriots over Ravens- Not a Patriots fan but never count Tom Brady out. Although it'll be really interesting to see how they play without Welker. I think they'll do better than expected, really liked what I saw from their backup receiver (don't have the name on the top of my head).

Cowboys over Eagles- Lived in Texas so I'm really pumped for this game. This is a huge game for not only Tony Romo but Wayne Phillips as well. McNabb and Andy Reid are unbeaten in opening playoff rounds so they know how to win in the playoffs. The pressure is on the Cowboys to finally win a frecking playoff game, it'll definitely be a good game but I got the Cowboys winning it. Now waiting for Tony Romo to do an ol' "get the monkey off my back" if they win. :P

Bengals over Jets- Don't get too excited about last week's game Jet fans, the Bengals played it like an exhibition and really didn't seem too into it. With the Bengals playing at home this time, I like their chances of winning it.

[Cojafoji]

Cowboys over Eagles
I got a six foot length of hose with your name on it buddy...

As a jets fan I'm excited as hell for this game. We have the number 1 defense and rushing offense. I'm going to see what the Jets can do when in a situation of a playoff game. Cincinnati is also having similar weather from last week. Home field advantage is something the Bengals should be happy for in this game. I have 100 percent confidence for the New York Jets winning this game. Also, if Carson Palmer can only play a "exhibition" with a status of 1-11 attempts for 0 yards, then he should be worried.

Nope, I'm a bears fan, but the packers look solid this year. Packers FTW.

Patriots over Ravens- Not a Patriots fan but never count Tom Brady out. Although it'll be really interesting to see how they play without Welker. I think they'll do better than expected, really liked what I saw from their backup receiver (don't have the name on the top of my head).

True that, I hate the Pats but they'll beat the Ravens

Nope, I think the jets will beat them again.

[STLRamsFan]

Packers are definitely a good team, I wouldn't be surprised to see them win. Right now I just have that gut feeling that the Cardinals are going to pull this one out. Although they do have some question marks regarding their injuries so it'll be interesting to see what happens tomorrow.

As far as the Jets go, good game so far. The three nullified FGs was hilarious. Although it doesn't look like that's gonna matter since the Jets are on their way to putting more points on the board as I type this.

Anyone actually put money on any games this weekend? I put $40 for the Cowboys so hopefully they come out on top...

[Huero]

maryland native go ravens
even though they're totally going to lose

[Abdurahman]

Yo jets one! I've liked Mark Sanchez since he was with USC. Go Trojans! Carson Palmer was a great USC quarterback too. Battle of former USC players today.

[PopeAK49]

YA! WE WON! WHOOOOOT! WE ALSO GAINED RESPECT!! WE ARE GOING TO BEAT THE COLTS OR CHARGERS NEXT WEEK AND WIN THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP!

[Ganon]

you beat the bengals,

you beat the bengals

[blind]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
how bout them cowboys

[PopeAK49]

Ya I was going for the cowboys too. [/rumor] It looks like thats Mcnabbs last game though. [/rumor] Glad that those C-boys ended their playoff losing streak. Let's see what they can do to the Vikings. I think it will be a close one for sure.

[Cojafoji]

Glad that those C-boys ended their playoff losing streak.
Only took 'em 13 years...

[PopeAK49]

I'll update the first page when the cardinals beat the crap out of greenbay.....From what it seems....

[Limited]

:shake: Pitiful game Pats :(

We were just out played.

[TVTyrant]

Doesn't matter about playoffs. Chargers and Vikings. San Diego is unbeatable. LT, Sproles, Gates and Rivers are the real deal. Not to mention Sean Merriman.
E:Also, Mike Tolbert is the second best fullback in the league. Just sayin...

[PopeAK49]

Anything can happen in the playoffs you know....

[TVTyrant]

Yeah, and what's gonna happen is LT is gonna rush all over people. If you can't tell, the Chargers are my super bowl pick. They need it the most imo.

[PopeAK49]

It would be nice if the chargers win their first superbowl.

[PopeAK49]

Page has been updated.

[TVTyrant]

I'm picking the Vikings over the Cowboys, the Cardinals over the Saints, the Chargers over the Jets (but in a close game) and the Ravens over the Colts in another blow-out like today.

[PopeAK49]

I'm surprised how far we are just right now with a rookie quarterback. I have faith that he will not throw interceptions. I know that when Sanchez plays serious, he's good. Too bad his popularity as a good quarterback went down after week 3.

[blind]

Cowboys over everyone

[sdavis117]

We did better than you thought we would do :p

We still lost though :(

[PopeAK49]

It was the first quarter when I posted that comment....

[Limited]

With Pats out the equation, I just want anyone but Saints and Colts to win.

[TVTyrant]

The Pats and Colts reigns are almost over anyways. The pocket passer is going extinct. Its going back to the running game and to speed qbs. VY, Jeremiah Masoli, Tim Teebo, and Colt McCoy are going to change the game.

[PopeAK49]

I know the patriots reign is over, but the colts?

I would want this superbowl to be a Vikings vs Chargers, but the Vikings winning the superbowl so Brett Favre can retire. Otherwise the old man will never give up...

[blind]

Day and Night, WOOOOO, I toss and turn can't get young girls out my mind mind, I look to feed Pipe but they can't handle, so I just turn around and touch Milfs, just turn around and touch Milfs, Just turn around and touch Milfs, day and night

[TVTyrant]

Peyton's got some years left definitely. But my point is that the sport is changing and in 10 years your not going to see people who run over a 5 second 40 yard dash times playing QB.

[Limited]

Well, Kiefer Sutherland (24 guy) had a bet that Pats would win the game, if he lost he'd wear a dress on the Letterman show...

[PopeAK49]

Just a notice

Saturday: Ravens vs Colts and Saints vs Cardinals

Sunday: Vikings vs Cowboys and Chargers vs Jets

[PopeAK49]

Ya! We beat the chargers! I'll update this either tonight, monday, or tuesday.

[TVTyrant]

I'm so sad right now :( Its down to the Vikes.

[MastaCheefa]

Cant wait for Vikings and Saints. Game of the year in my opinion.

[STLRamsFan]

Right now I got the Colts and Vikings in the Superbowl. A Saints victory over the Vikings wouldn't surprise me but I just have a feeling Favre's gonna pull this one out.

[Limited]

Anyone but Colts to win in my book, freaking hate them :D

[PopeAK49]

J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS!

[Ganon]

colts won good game guys

[mech]

Colts Vs. Saints


This is going to be awesome.

[Abdurahman]

Aw shoot Favre choked again. Great game by the vikings, they had a chance to win at the end of regulation but blew it.

[Ganon]

vikings nearly double the saints in overall stats for the game and lose

brett farve is horrid

[CN3089]

J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS
















:smith:

[STLRamsFan]

Colts vs. Saints, should hopefully be a good one. Had some good Superbowls the past two years so hopefully that continues. As for the Vikings and Saints game, anyone think the second to last play of the game was a horrible call by the refs? Thought the ball was a drop...

[Bodzilla]

i actually watched this match!

i dont understand anything about this game.
Whats the point of setting up for 30 seconds to have a play that lasts 5?

Tremendous waste of time imo
my 2 cents

pope you seem to have misspelled nhl and become confused about the topic at hand don't worry i forgive you :allears:

Honestyl he had nothing to do with the loss. His O-Line played horribly, and everyone one else continuously fumbling didn't help either. Yes Favre threw two interceptions, but he never would of thrown them if he wasn't rushed to get the pass off and if other people had been playing well. Anyone whos watched Favre throughout his career knows that when hes desperate he will force throws, so I would really say that its not his fault.

I hope he doesn't come back though. The man needs to know when to stop.

The form of play is somewhat more sophisticated. There are all kinds of different offenses, defenses, coverages, blitzes, etc. From my knowledge of basketball and hockey most of the continuous sports rely on only a handful of these, and while styles are very different, it usually ends up being the same game no matter how you play it. With American football you have more options, as you have alot more time to prepare for each play.

the games not based purely on athleticism, its more about strategy and playcalling then having big niggers who can dunk

[PopeAK49]

I'm so glad the jets made it to the championship with a rookie headcoach and quarterback. It shows that this is the begining of the jets era. I'm happy that the saints made it to their first superbowl. Imagine what it would have been like if the saints and colts went undefeated. It's really upsetting to see a 40 year old quarterback like brett favre have one of his best seasons ever, and being so close to a superbowl and then losing because of silly turnovers that could have been avoided.

Also if a 40 year old quarterback can come back after getting hit 20 times, he deserves to be respected and admired.

like we watched 2 different things tbh
like as far as i can work out each team basically has 2 teams, 1 offense one defense and most of the guys in the front row are over-weight or obese and it's just glorified sumo wrestling on the front line :S

oh and i know baseballs worse, but cricket gets labelled as boring and slow by americans like wtf!

personally i see more athleticism, faster on your feet thinking and better shows of brilliance in Rugby league :S

[STLRamsFan]

Is anyone actually gonna watch the Pro Bowl? Quite honestly, that is probably the most boring game of them all... When I read that the NFL made the Pro Bowlers on the Superbowl teams attend (not to play but just be there...), I seriously laughed out loud. I mean really, who cares about this game... Liked it better when it was in Hawaii cause at least it made the Pro Bowl seem worth going to.

football is about teamwork, playcalling and trust

Superbowl time, give em' hell Colts!

Proves that it would be pointless if the colts had a undefeated season, because the who dat nation really showed who was dat!

This is going to be the best week in new orleans.

[hry]

fuck yes saints!!!!!!!!! c:

[Warsaw]

I agree. I am thoroughly pleased that the Saints won. I'm a Steelers fan, but my mother grew up in New Orleans when she moved to the USA from France, so Saints are the next pick.
