I'm 45-35 overall. 3-2 this week.

CHARGERS 36-28 Raiders
CARDINALS 23-20 Seahawks
BILLS 21-49 Patriots
49ERS 34-27 Rams
COLTS 13-19 Jaguars

What surprised me the most was even though w/o a resting Rodgers against Detroit, Matt Flynn came in and played like a Rodgers, and got a 45-41 win over Stafford and the Lions. This is really promising for the Pack.

Better than Rodgers, actually. Set franchise records in passing yards and passing TDs. In other words, Flynn is technically BETTER than Rodgers, or Rodgers is overrated, and the O-line and receivers are doing all of the work. The offense didn't change, Flynn just ran it better.

Flynn NEEDS to earn some more play time with that kind of playing. He has more of a strategy it seems. Since he adds running to the list of attributes for Green Bay, it might change play a little with a new option...

On the downside of that, if GB uses Flynn for a while and changes back to Rodgers, it could change a little w/ Rodgers removing running from the arsenal.

Flynn is a Free agent next year. Could get some deals. Detroit played well but we have to play THE SAINTS in the playoffs....Lions are screwed...and rodgers is overrated

Get Flynn in Tampa Bay. I think he'd do well there, at least get em better than 4-12...

I seem too like Skelton of the Cardinals for Tampa...but he isnt going anywhere.

People need to be eone more in tebow and dang right when cutler was playing great with mark Martz play book, he left ughhhhhhhhhh

Looks like the Wild Card matches are set up:
Jan. 7
Cincinnati VS Houston
Detroit VS New Orleans
Jan. 8
Atlanta VS NYG
Pittsburgh VS Denver

I gotta say, I think Cincy's got Houston. Houston is on a three game skid and Cincy's been battling close this Last part...

I'm sticking with New Orleans over Detroit. I hate to say it, but Brees has gotten MUCH better. He might get another bowl win.

Atlanta over NYG because I never thought I'd see Atlanta pop onto my radar and rocket to a chance for the Bowl. At all...

Lastly, Pitt over Denver. Reason 1: Big Ben is Big, and it's hard to take down Big. Reason 2: Sure they have Tebow, but what was the Broncos' record? 8-8, tying San Diego and Oakland, AND having the worst record for a Division win this season. Reason 3: If ya can't show your skills in New England, and then fail miserably against Buffalo, and THEN have a 3-7 loss to KC, you probably DESERVE to lose to Pitt's 13-3 team of Pirates and Gorillas.

Green Bay and San Fran (Yaaaaaaaaaaay) are sitting out for the NFC, Baltimore (YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY) is safe in the AFC with New England (Boooooooooooo).

I wonder if Harrison will lay out Tebow like he did McCoy. XD

Anyway like I told my brother at the start of the season...GB VS NE Super Bowl.
Jan. 05, 2012  5:55 AM
 
You have to admit, the Pats are praying that Houston falls on its face. Think about it:

Houston wins: Ah! We play PIT! We're DOOMED! (Ben vs. Brady again. The D played their best vs. Ben the 1st time. Not gonna happen again. Pittsburgh rolls up with 30 points in a lopsided win.)

Cincy wins: Oh? Cincy? Erm... Not easy, but a win. Then PIT and BAL play their usual "Let's beat the hell out of each other!" game, with the winner being tired as hell. (then again, how did that strategy work out for the Jets last year?)

Or the Denver Tebows can win and toss my whole scenario out the window. Someone's gonna have to open the window, Tebow doesn't have the arm strength to break it himself.

On the note of the recent firings: Jerry Angelo? Hasta la vista. The man's made some decent decisions, but most have sucked.
Raheem Morris did not need to get fired. He built a good Bucs team.
Spags (Rams HC Steve Spagunolo) was a great defensive coach with an underachieving team. He'll be back.

On Martz: He will be missed, but his "Hey, guise! Let's have a terrible QB drop back 7 steps with his popgun arm that's even weaker than Tebow's!" playbook will not. He was great when he came around to the run, but now Smith gets to pick his GM and OC. I'm thinking Mike Tice as OC, and Bill Polian as the GM. Before getting hurt, Cutler was playing some MVP-worthy ball. Note: The Bears lost without Cutler, not without Forte, given the Oakland and KC games. He's not much more than a great game-manager in this offense, but the Bears had the 6th-best offense with Cutler in yardage, and got 26.8 PPG in the 5-game win streak. Without Cutler, they averaged 13. See the difference?

Bottomline:

-Schuab needs a together game-plan if he thinks about getting past Brandon Johnson, Dalton and Cincy.

-It'll be a Stafford-Brees war between Detroit and New Orleans.

-Atlanta needs to strike unexpectedly and rise slowly like they did in regular season play and get by NYG.

-Big Ben's team of Pirates and Gorillas need to smash the Tebow bandwagon to go on to Divisionals.

Um...DefStamina, Schaub has been on IR for the last 6 weeks, where have you been? And my Texans, just blew out Cincy, come on Ravens, you're next!
Jan. 08, 2012  5:20 PM
 
NightWolf Oh... well I haven't kept up with the roster apparently ^^; And although Texans won, Baltimore is just so good. They really have everything it takes to win a bowl... and if Houston's facing Balti, that means New Orleans gets the Patriots (BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!)
Jan. 08, 2012  5:24 PM
 
New Orleans gets the patriots? They're in two separate conferences? Or did you mean the Super Bowl
And tbh, if we shut down Flacco, which as the Jacksonville Jaguars proved, is not very hard, we have a sizeable chance to beat them in Baltimore. Their defense is good yes, but ours is better. Not to mention the Ravens had the 2nd easiest schedule in the league, next was the 49ers.

Wow I'm bad at reading today... -__-;; The Steelers and Broncos have to play to see who faces New England. The Saints play SAN FRANCISCO. That game should be good...
Jan. 09, 2012  1:03 PM
 
DID YOU SEE THAT?!?! Denver defeats Pittsburgh 29-23 in OT! Did not see that coming! Now here's the schedule for Divisionals:
Jan. 14
New Orleans VS San Fran
Denver VS New England
Jan. 15
Houston VS Baltimore
NYG VS Green Bay

Denver, I'm sorry I doubted you. PLEASE do that again!!
Jan. 09, 2012  3:50 PM
 
I wonder if the Eagles will ever make it to the Play-offs again....They use to be a good team and now they suck.

that was an amazing play to win the game, what was the total yardage on that play, 90??
that was an amazing game overall

i kinda was hopeing that the Lions would beat the Saints for 2 reasons, I thought the lions deserved to go further this year
and 2, IM ASCARED of the Saints (im a GB fan) they are one hell of a team this year.

Jan. 09, 2012  11:12 PM
 
TEEEBBOOOOOWWWW I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!!!!! i told my dad to bet $50 on the broncos/ he would be over $500 dollars richer but noooo he didnt. GB² !!!!!

It would be my FANTASY to see GB VS SF, and DEN VS BAL as the division finals for both sides...

As a Philadelphian I can answer that for you.

If the can work out a deal with the new players (From what I heard most of then had a one year contract) And work on some other kinks, then yes.

i agree with u on that (the GB part)
im scared of the Saints, i think we might have a little better chance against the 49ers

but im lookin forward to the SF vs NO game, should be a great game

New Orleans is going to win the superbowl. Patriots will beat St. Tebow. The Superbowl match up will be NO vs NE, and finally Saints are very scary
Jan. 10, 2012  3:16 AM
 
Tebow is gonna own brady XD
Jan. 10, 2012  3:23 AM
 
Can't make an assumption just yet, but here's what I think:

-I see an NO win over SF. Brees is a record-breaking player. Alex Smith has nothing on him. I see a 24-14 win for the Saints.

-As much as I HATE to say it, I don't think Denver's got it against New England. They're tired out from Pitt and definitely don't have enough rest time for the next round. However, I do think they can keep it close. 14-11 OT NE.

-Houston and Balti is a good one. The Texans have been surprising me by redeeming themselves after losing to Indy and going on a skid by nailing Cincy. However, Balti has Joe Flacco and a great offense. This one's a close one, but I say 17-16 Balti. If Houston wants to change my mind, do this Texans, "SHOW ME YOUR MOVES!"

-Giants VS Packers is gonna be a GREAT game. Eli and NYG demolished Atlanta easy, and are playing like all-stars. Despite that, I say 24-10 Green Bay because....c'mon, they're robots in disguise. Rodgers led his team to domination last season, and with a 15-1, they could definitely do it again...
