The Road to SuperBowl XLIV: The Official 2010 NFL Playoffs Thread

Bengals were beat before they rolled over.

the bengals didn't give a crap about the game as many of us suspected would happen. yes the jets handed them a beat down but you can tell in the first half that the bengals weren't even trying so lets not kid ourselves please. do i think the jets have a chance to beat them in the playoffs? with that defense yes i do.

What a week for Sandra.

A trip to Cabo, Ohio State wins a BCS game to get the monkey off the Big Ten's back, and the J-E-T-S make the playoffs.

Yeah, they didn't even start their starting running back. They won't be able to stop him nearly as easily as the rookie.

Dallas' defense is playing lights-out. (First back-to-back shutouts in team history). They also have their running game going full-bore and Tony Romo is having his best December/January yet. Heading into the playoffs, only San Diego is equally as hot. Oh, and next week's game is at home. I'll take Dallas.

:up:up

I was absolutely surprised when I saw that Eagles/Cowboys was on Saturday Night.

I thought Packers/Cardinals would be on Saturday night, FOX would get the early Sunday game and CBS the late Sunday game.

Do you really think Packers/Cardinals would be a better prime-time matchup??

NOT ME FOR SURE!!!

All four bye teams from last season failed to make the playoffs at all this year. Is that a first??

And with their win over the Redskins yesterday, the Chargers complete their sweep over the NFC East.

In the Wild Card round, I'm hoping for the Jets and the Ravens to win. In that scenario, the Colts would play the Ravens and the Bolts would get the Jets in the 2nd round. The Bolts have already lost to the Ravens once at home, and I don't look forward to seeing them again. I want Manning to win that game.

Using your criteria, Cleveland, San Diego and Dallas are equally hot. Given that San Diego beat both Cleveland and Dallas in their run (2x+ to 3x+ longer), I'd say the Bolts are hotter.

Well when 2 teams roll over for you like dead horses it isn't that hard to fathom. Let's remember the last time the other team "tried" against the Jets, they lost 10-7 to a feeble Falcons team at home.

I like every team this week that won the games this week, and the Pats who also beat the Ravens in week 3.

You going to the game, Bill? I'll be in P6 at 9am:up, can't wait. Nothing like playoff football!

Have fun buddy, but PLEASE bring home a win!! :up

I'll be watching on my 48" LG on Sunday.

I will admit that I was disappointed with the game time. I was hoping for the Saturday night game or the late Sunday game..........oh well.

OK, this weekend we have games in Dallas, New England, Cincinnati and Arizona. Decent chance of some snow/cold weather in at least two places.

But the following weekend the games are in Indy, Minnesota, New Orleans and San Diego. The only chance for cold weather is San Diego!!!

And the championship games will probably be in these cities too.

The Ravens and Patriots have met only five times in the regular season (and never in the postseason), and the Pats have won all five games (including 3 in Foxboro).

If what is passing through Ohio right now makes it to the East Coast, look out! We've recieved over 12" of snow in the last 24 hours and areas in the snowbelt (along Lake Erie) are expected to receive up to 4 feet of snow by the end of the week!!!

We just got 14 inches over the weekend. It snowed off and on from Friday evening through early Monday morning.

If it is indeed a snowfest at Gilette Stadium, the Pats should run the ball with the three-headed beast of Taylor, Maroney, and Taylor.

I think you meant to say Sammy Morris where you typed the 2nd "Taylor".

Also, don't forget the great third down back, Kevin Faulk, and a VERY underrated Benjarvus Green-Ellis (and no, that's not a law firm ).

The Pats really don't have a true #1 back (Fred Taylor used to be), but their stable is as deep as anybody's.
