Playoff Football

[x-trainer ben]

So far all of these games have been lopsided blowouts.. I wanted the Raiders to advance but with no qb they could do nothing.. Perhaps Aaron and Eli can make football great again. Are you watching?

Blowouts are good if your team is on the right side. I thought Detroit might give my Seahawks a closer game yesterday. I think Stafford was really having some difficulty with that hand injury. He did not look very sharp. I'm expecting Green Bay to take this today but it might be pretty close game. They say you can't beat a team 3 times in the same year so that means I want Green Bay to play Dallas next week. It's a long shot but I'm hoping Seattle hosts the NFC championship game against Green Bay or New York.

[crupiea]

of course the raider and lions had no chance, didnt even watch as it was a no brainer.

Eli stand a chance today against the much over rated packers.

I really dont much care for the giants but hate all the sucking up to the packers.

[x-trainer ben]

Well i went to the gym and when I checked it was seven to six. That Rogers halftime hail Mary was epic and made me think that this was a victory for Greenbay.. I was not wrong.

It ended up being another blowout but at least it was more entertaining, for a while anyway..

I have not followed Atlanta much but will check them out.

If Dallas wants to make it to the big dance, they're gonna need Romo at some point.
I like Dak, and I think he will be a great QB down the road. His problem is he can't see the whole field, even with 5 seconds in the pocket. (That will come with time I believe).
Give me Romo this year and I think Dallas has a chance.

[so-tex]

if I'm betting I'd go with ATL to win it all...

too weapons on the offensive side of the ball !

They won't beat the Patriots.

[Fishman15]

no way in hell Romo even takes a snap ...

he's a post season bust......and this is supposed to somehow change because he's been sitting on the sidlelines for the last 3 months ?


I think Romo is gonna struggle just to be average in Denver next year

I agree here with OS. I think if Romo takes a snap in the playoffs the game will already be in hand for Dallas or Prescott has been injured. Dak is no longer a rookie and he played pretty damn well while he was a rookie. Of course we are dealing with Jerry aren't we...

Okay...
We'll see when the defenses start brining the house with the pass rush. Dak can't handle it. Saw it in the 1st game with Philadelphia, and the Giants. Kids gonna be good, but Romo is healthy and he's the best in the game right now in reading and adjusting to what the defense brings.

But can Romo handle the physical abuse of being knocked down hard from the blitz?

Never forget the 2001 Patriots. Young Tom Brady was clearly the future, but the $100M man Drew Bledsoe had to come in and beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh in the AFC Championship when Tom got hurt. That's what got them to the Super Bowl against the Rams.

Personally, I like Tony Romo but hate the Cowboys. So the only way I can enjoy a Tony Romo Super Bowl is if he moves on to another team. We joke that someone can throw for 500 yards and 5 TDs and then throw 1 pick and be blamed for the loss. It was funny to see Tony Romo do that, and get blamed for the loss.

Fish, I've seen all the games, and yes Dak is good. He has the best running back and offensive line in the NFL. He's good making check downs, especially when given 5 seconds in the pocket.
The problem lies downfield. I've seen open receivers that he misses on. I guarantee you Dez and Whitten would rather see a healthy Romo under center.

yep.

Farve said GB will go back the the super bowl. Don't be wrong Brett.

He can get rid of the ball and see the field much better than Dak can. With that offensive line and the best running game in the NFL. Hell yeah.
Did you see the Philly game? The one series he was in, he marched the team down 89 yards in 6 plays for a TD. Dak played the previous 3 series with the 1st team and nada.

You misspelled Aaron Rogers.

[so-tex]

I'll just leave this here. I think Dak went 4-8 when Romo came in.

That game next week is no gimme.

I hear ya...I just can't stomach watching Romo being walked/carried off the field again and I'm watching from afar. I've never seen a guy get injured so much. If Romo were in Seattle this year he wouldn't have made it past the first week of pre season practice. Wilson is running for his life literally on every snap this year...

That injury crap and Romo being fragile is way overblown. He can still ball.

Over rated? Want to repeat that?

You misspelled Aaron Rogers.

Psst, so did you. Its Rodgers.

[Iceman1800]

Atlanta vs Dallas in the NFC championship game will be the best playoff game of the season.

See, that's what happens when I quit getting the Journal-Sentinel and don't see his name every day.

If the Texans make it to the Super Bowl, JJ Watt will be pissed for missing the season.

Made me chuckle with this comment. Texans are a pretty good team, but no way in hell will we beat New England next Saturday. I'll still watch the first 15 minutes until Brady throws his fourth TD pass though.

seattle is going to shock you all on Sat in atl. calling it now, winning by 7+

Bold prediction. Atlanta has an incredible offense and Seattle doesn't have the defense of their Super Bowl years

Fortune favors the bold.
Atl is going to be a tough game, but with the hate the media is giving Seattle turning into fuel for them, I see them pulling off the upset

[Mumra]

no chance. Seachickens aren't getting away with obvious PAs this time. no more home cooking and their D won't have the crowd behind them. Vic's gonna have Wussel looking out his ear hole and Julio and co are going to embarrass D*ck Shortman.
