No posts on here talking about the NFL games over the weekend?

I expected to hear at least a few groans and moans about Tennisee or the Giants.

Maybe some gloating  from anyone in Pennsylvania.

I found the games surprising to say the least.

  • I wasn't suprised at all that the Eagles won.  I think, accorcing to an ESPN poll, about 60% of football fans thought the Eagles would win.  I just cant wait til they win the SUper Bowl.  The Phillies WOrld Series Parade down Broad St. was amazing, next up- an Eagles Parade!
  • I dont even want to talk about what the Panthers did image
  • ^Yeah, that was a poor poor display of professional football
  • I think Pittsburgh and Baltimore is going to be an awesome game. Two nasty defenses that will probably score more than the offenses in this game. NFC sucks.
  • The Cardinals still shock me.



    I would probably bet them winning and going to the Super Bowl, just for shear stupidity.



    But I'm pissed the titans lost. Played a lot like the Tennessee Vols 08 Football team if you asked me.
  • I'm a pats fan at heart but I was definitely rooting for the titans this year
  • I picked 3 of the 4 games right. I figured Baltimore, Philli, and the Steelers would win. But after having Deangelo Williams on my fantasy team and with a healthy Steve Smith and a QB with the 3rd highest QB rating in playoff history not to mention Jonathen Stewart and a nasty Defense AND it was raining I figured the Panthers would slaugher Arizona. Still shocked about that one. That said I will say that the Titans got hosed royally on the 3rd and 2 completion for 23 yards that led to the game winning field goal. The play clock had clearly expired about 2 seconds before the ball was hiked.

    Looking ahead I will take the Eagles to beat Arizona and the Steelers to beat the Ravens like they already have twice this year.
  • I cried. Lots. I'm still in shock over the Carolina game. The good news is that I have family in AZ, so I guess from here I'll cheer for them.
  • Just glad the Nashville Oilers got beat!

  • and you claim to live in TN... how dare you
  • TN = Vols. Nashville = Oilers



    My g/f is from Sparta/Mt Juliet so I catch a lot of grief for hating them. He dad is a huge fan and we bust each others balls about it anytime we meet.

  • I called it to my friends even before the playoffs started - I think the Steelers are going to win it all. I wouldn't be surprised to see Philly and the Steelers, but it doesn't matter, because I'm pretty sure Pittsburgh will take it.



    I don't particularly like them (they are good and everything), I just think they'll win.
  • I threw a little tantrum once the Colts were out, and didn't really pay too much attention to the games over the weekend. Don't even get me started on Dungy retiring...
  • yeah its not as much fun watching when your team isnt in the playoffs

    especially if your team is the cowboys...
  • Can't believe the Cardinals won, and I absolutely hate the Steelers, so that's a bummer.



    The Ravens/Steelers game is going to be nasty, and I have a feeling the Eagles are going to absolutely dominate the Cardinals.



    I don't know that I have a favorite team anymore, a part of me really wants to pull for the Browns, but my Lord... they already sucked, and now they hire Mangini? They probably deserve to lose.

    What makes you so sure?  The Eagles absolutely dominated the Steelers in their meeting this season.

    Troy Polamalu

  • I am pretty lucky as a football fan right now. My favourite team is the Steelers and my 'other' team (I follow an NFC team too) is the Cardinals.

    If they make the superbowl against eachother it will be nice and stress free.

    I have a Feeling that Philly will win the NFC, but they are known to CHOKE. Carinals lack experience other than Warner and James.

    Pitts can beat Baltimore, but beating the same team 3 times in 1 year, especially when they are good, is hard to accomplish.

    Also, Pitts because of what Jumpman said "Troy Polamalu"

  • http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs2008/news/story?id=3830172



    Polamalu is hurt and playing through it image



    I'm a Skins fan, but I thought the Super Bowl was going to be Steelers / Panthers. So much for that.



    The Steelers / Ravens game should be AMAZING this week and I haven't looked this forward to a game in recent memory. I'm 60 / 40 towards thinking the Steelers will win, but you never know with the new looks Ravens. Remember, their defense won them a Super Bowl before and now they actually have a decent quarterback too!
  • Pitts can beat Baltimore, but beating the same team 3 times in 1 year, especially when they are good, is hard to accomplish.
    Titans did that once.  Year they went to the super bowl, they beat Jacksonville three times, and Jacksonville's only loses came by the Titans.  Thought that was amazing.


  • yeah the skins better draft or trade for some linemen, or there not going anywhere next year

    Wait... what?

  • lucky guess.. Just kidding.. I do think the Cards are going to give the Steelers a hell of a game though... Watch out...
  • I hope the Cards destroy the Steelers, the Steelers have possibly the worst fan base of any professional team I've ever seen. Philadelphia fans are pretty crazy too though.



    I mean seriously, chanting "BULL SHIT" on national TV when the referees made a perfect call? Santonio Holmes clearly let that ball hit the ground and it was not a catch at all.



    Gimme a break...
  • Troy Polamalu is a beast. Im pulling for the steelers just because of him.
