Inside scoop (not really): Philbin's (Packers offensive coordinator) son was found dead in the Fox River a day or two ago. Packers will dedicate game to him.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Wahhhht? Cause of death?

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

I'd assume he drowned to death. The river is currently frozen, so the ice must have cracked, he fell in, and then drowned. Really a horrible way to die if that's in fact what happened.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Man, I got fucked sideways by the Broncos and the 49ers. I also gambled on the Giants...I really thought the "bad Giants" were going to show up...

Watching the Patriots destroy the Broncos is surprisingly...cathartic. And while I'm upset that the Saints lost, that was probably the most intense and exciting 4th Quarter I have seen in a playoff football game in a looooong time.

Anyone thinking the Giants-Packers game will be close tomorrow? And if the Packers do win, they will have to square off the very decent 49er's secondary.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Ohhh shiiiiit.

The Saints and Packers are out...the only offense-only, no defense team left is the Patriots. And their defense stepped it up big time last night.

I don't know who to root for anymore? Go Giants?

Actually...I know exactly what I want to see. Giants vs. Pats rematch.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Hell no, I don't want to see that rematch. I think I'm going to have to route for the 49ers. I hate the Ravens and I hate the Giants. I guess it's Patriots and 49ers for me, which still sucks due to the Patriots having been to so many Super Bowls lately.

How about a Ravens vs. 49er Super Bowl with a Harbaugh showdown?

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Texans had a great run this year. They could have easily won that game against the Ravens -- our defense POUNDED Flacco, our offensive line allowed 0 sacks, and Foster played masterfully. But alas getting down to our third string, rookie quarterback finally caught up with us with too many jump ball passes to Andre that never should have been made. Add in Jacoby Jones' stupid stupid stupid fubar fumble on a punt return, and it's a wonder we were even in the game.

Great year Texans. Can't wait 'til next year.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Here's who I want to win, in order of preference:

49ers
Patriots
Ravens
Giants

The company I work for is headquartered in San Fran, so I feel a bit of attachment to them.

I really just don't like the Giants - never been a fan of any NY teams. They win too much and seem to have a lot of fans just because it's New York.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

I'm pumped for the 49ers. I finally have a reason to throw on my Rice jersey.

I know I totally cheated as a fan, because I'd given up on them for the last 7-8 years, and the beginning of this year just happened to be when I started getting into them again (at my brothers request) - but they've always been my favourite team.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Don't be hating!

We haven't had a parade in like 3 years! We're due one!

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Well, looks like I won't be going to the Superbowl. Looks like it will be two close championship games this weekend.

Re: NFL Playoff Pick'em
 

Some tense games.

And we're going back to the big dance!
