I agree..........in fact I'd pick the Seahawks in that one.
THEN they could HOST the Packers in the NFC Championship Game!
I can't rule that out (see Arizona a few years ago, and you are very high on Green Bay's playoff chances).

Yes, I think Eagles will win tomorrow, fun though seeing how far the underdog could go with the right matchups!
Defended their title like the 2008 NY Giants did, didn't they? Pitiful. Helluva run by Lynch, but if the Saints had put a little more effort into trying to tackle the guy than going for the strip, they might've stopped him. That sealed their fate for sure.

Oops. Thanks for pointing out my error.
The last time a defending Super Bowl champion won a playoff game the following season- the 2005 Patriots (after they won back-to-back Super Bowls, they beat Jacksonville 28-3 while trying for a threepeat. Alas, they came up short in Denver the following week 27-13).
Since then:
the Steelers missed the playoffs following their recent Super Bowl titles
the Colts and Giants lost their first playoff game the year after winning the Lombardi
today for the Saints

Injuries the year after their Super Bowl wins were key factors in all of these teams performing poorly in the playoffs the following season. Gotta have your best at 100% to win the big one.
The Idiotapolias Dolts are OUT!!!!!!!!!!! In your face Manning!!!!!
Get out your forks folks and stick 'em in!

With the team and injuries the Colts had, them not winning was hardly a surprise.
It's only fitting that the four best teams through most of 2010 will compromise the AFC Final Four.
The AFC Divisional Playoffs will be MONSTEROUS next weekend!!!
The AFC Championship Game is guaranteed to be a rematch from this season......

CBS is drooling a river right now (the AFC Championship Game for them is a no-lose scenario. All 4 possibilities are potentially awesome.)
