January 11, 200917 yr And that's a wrap. Not a good time to be a top seed right now. Steelers should be very afraid.
January 11, 200917 yr QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jan 6, 2009 -> 07:36 AM) I thought Jared Allen should have been runner up. Besides Peterson, he was Minnesota's MVP this year. Anyways, I got: Giants over Eagles Panthers over Cardinals Titans over Ravens (UPSET?) Steelers over Chargers I'm to assume San Diego is going to win, correct?

January 11, 200917 yr Would love to see Rivers walk off the field in defeat. He's a punk and a sh*t talker

January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (rangercal @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 07:54 PM) like those were not the picks of 90% of the country. Picking all home teams in the second round is lazy, hence I laugh this week when every home team lost.

January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 08:31 PM) except pittsburgh I wasn't counting them, I should've used different words.
January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 08:19 PM) It's going to be Steelers vs Cards with the Steelers winning it all. I really, really, really, really don't want to see Arizona in the super bowl against the Steelers. Warner + Fitgerald and possibly Boldin scares the crap out of me. Especially with Ike Taylor out there trying to defend.
January 12, 200917 yr I think I said this earlier but I'm rooting for AZ specifically to see if it can f*** up the space-time continuum. Although it may have taken a Lions-Cardinals game to do that.
January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 11:04 PM) I'm definitely rooting for the Cardinals. As am I. Fitz is awesome and hopefully Quan gets better for the next game.
January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 10:04 PM) I'm definitely rooting for the Cardinals. Same.
January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Jan 12, 2009 -> 03:05 AM) So much for the NFC West being weaker than the NFC North. You were the only one actually arguing this that I can recall. Nobody really cares, the Seahawks and the Rams are still laughingstocks, the 49ers still suck but are improving finally, and even though they're in the NFC Championship, the Cardinals are still a 7-loss team who went 2-4 down the stretch but they clinched early so it doesn't matter because he division sucks. Why do you bring the NFC North into everything?
January 12, 200917 yr QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 11, 2009 -> 10:19 PM) It's going to be Steelers vs Cards with the Steelers winning it all. please... Please... please.... anyone but the steelers winning it all. Most of their fans are morons who think championships only count after the merger.

Why do you bring the NFC North into everything? Because you stated they were much better than either West team, but yet, those teams clinched their division, and you gave them(ARI) crap for losing down the stretch. You know a lot of teams are more concentrated on being healthy down the stretch once they clinched. And for SD, yea, their division was down, but it was still better than the NFC Bore as evident by both West teams advancing at least into the second round of the playoffs.

Arizona wasnt benching starters down the stretch, they were getting thrashed and looked bad while doing it, and their starters were all in. I applaud them for finding their early-season form, but they looked really bad at the end of the season

No, my whole point was that division winners should not be guaranteed a home game just because they won a crappy division. At the time I was talking about SD, and since it also applied to AZ I said AZ should not be hosting a playoff game either. I never said anything bad about the quality of SD or AZ as teams except that they lost too many games to deserve a home game (although I admit I don't like SD), those are your assumptions apparently, since you keep bringing it up. The NFC North and the quality of teams thereof is completely, totally, absolutely 100% irrelevant to this discussion. Edited January 12, 200917 yr by lostfan

He definitely deserves his share of the blame. But that was a team collapse yesterday. From Tom Coughlin to shady O-line play (I thought Snee and McKenzie played well. The rest not so much) to a defense that, while doing a great job of shutting down Westbrook (I really like Terrell Thomas), did little to generate any consistent pass rush. And it can't be underestimated how much they missed Plaxico.
