come on, who do you pick surviving this weekend? mine Chiefs defeat Texans Steelers defeat Bengals Seahawks defeat Vikings Redskins defeat Packers I'm sorry Jim but we are going to talk about them [video=youtube;s2R2sH2ScBM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2R2sH2ScBM[/video]
Those games sure were funny. People actually thought one player could win the whole game for Houston. The Bengals should just implode their entire existence and never have a franchise in that city again.
whoa did the real Green Bay Packers show up the 2nd half? What happened in that locker room during halftime? Once again the Seahawks had lady-luck on their shoulder and I was counting on that.
Weekend did not end up the way I wanted. Didn't have rooting interest in KC/Hou or GB/Wash, just wanted good games. Um, no... Rooting for Cincy & Minny, but deep down was anticipating failure & sure enough... On the flip side though, get to see Pitt/Den & Sea/Carolina beat each others brains in. Will be rooting for Pats & Cards to survive.
Pittsburgh defense will beat Denver. Chiefs will spank Patriots. Green Bay will squeak by against Arizona and Seahawks will find a way to win against Carolina.
I can't see all 4 visiting teams winning again this week - that would mean 0 home teams winning in the first 8 playoff game - unprecedented. I give the Chiefs a shot against the Pats Green Bay a punchers chance against Arizona. If Rothlisberger can't throw deep(or much at all), I can't see Pitt winning against a great Denver D & a somewhat rested and healthy Manning. I expect Carolina to win, but would love to figure out a way for BOTH teams to lose.
As a lifelong Steeler fan, I am no doubt projecting my wishes. However, after the young Denver QB lit up the Steelers for 27 points in the first half a few weeks ago the Steelers threw a shutout in the second half after trailing 27-10 at the half and scored 24 unanswered points to win 34-27 going away. I am hoping that Ben has enough left to keep the Broncos off balance and our running game and defense carry the day. In my opinion, Manning is way past it and if he gets smacked a few times he will start throwing it up for grabs as he has throughout his playoff career. I am more concerned about Manning's young backup. That kid is going to be a fine NFL quarterback.
Looks like 3 out of 4, not bad. As for the Redskins..... ummm they have a (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) as Quarter back Next Round: Carolina over Seattle Arizona over Green bay New England over Kansas Pittsburgh over Denver
