Glad my niners made it through.

That is all.

Obv as a Seahawks fan I was hoping to see a Packers win. Well earned victory for your lot. Was with my mates here, and they are all 9ers fans. Edge of their seats for the last part of the game.

Gotta hand it to Harbaugh...he's done an incredible job. Love his demeanor in the locker room (hate his demearnor on the sidelines).

Saints at Seahawks and 9ers at Panthers...couple of good games coming up. Could see both going either way.
 

Fair enough your opinion. I think the Packers running game deserves respect and Rogers is a talent. Defensively weak and need some impact players there for sure.

Solid squad though - next year might be a packers year!

Even with Rodgers the Packers shouldn't have been close. GB has defensive deficiencies (and a bunch of injuries) and not a good OL either. SF has owned GB and has an offense that is better off in cold weather than GB is. When he had a chance Colin had huge runs, they just didn't call his number.

They won't beat the Panthers if they go into Carolina with the same game plan.

I think SD has a decent shot to beat Denver. Refs aren't calling and pass interference pens and one reason why Manning has struggled in the postseason is that in the playoffs the refs let the DBs grab and hold the WRs a lot more and it throws the timing off routes.

New Orleans has no chance against Seattle. In the other NFC game, SF is more talented but Carolina is at home. I think Carolina pulls it out.

Will take the Pats against the Colts. Colts are away from the dome and run too hot and cold to make me think they could win more than 1 playoff game in a row. Belichick defo won't let TJ Yeldon murder him like the Chiefs did.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

At least as somebody unfortunately living in Wisconsin, I now get a month-long reprieve from all Packers all of the time. Then draft season starts and the cycle begins anew.
 
FAILskins GM, who got job because of his dad, hires coach who is the brother of a somewhat successful coach LOL.

Honestly in all my years, don't think I've ever seen that, offsides or not.
 

I think there may be some shocks. I like the Colts, the Panthers and the Broncos (only because they're at home, evne though San Diego won there this season). As for my Saints, heart says Who Dat, head says Seahawks.
 
Who does everyone fancy this weekend in the 4 games ? Everton at home then a weekend of nfl play offs. Happy days.

Honestly, none of these games look like safe picks to me, except Seattle. My heart says Saints, but that's just not a smart pick. Seahawks should win, although I'm hoping for a closer game than last time. Also, I have a deep aversion to Carolina, but I'm not overwhelmingly impressed with the 49ers. Still, I'm not yet convinced that Newton has what it takes to lead a playoff run. These teams are very similar, and the defense that can produce turnovers should win. I like Brady against Manning, but we'll have to wait a week for that. Manning should win at home, but the Broncos defense is terrible. Looking at the history, you have to go back three years before you find a game between these two that was decided by more than one score (actually, 8 points earlier this year, but still), and SD won at Denver only a month ago. I won't be surprised if Manning disappoints again. Brady should win at home against Luck, but as both are magical at times and both are missing weapons, it's really hard to predict which QB will save the day and which will look disappointingly average.

So there's my awesome preview.

Cheers . I'm not that well up on the nfl as I've only started taking interest in it again lately as I have the time to watch it. I've always liked but it's not always easy to watch it over here. Enjoyed last week even though the packers got beat. That colts comeback was madness.
 
Watch out for San Diego over Denver. SD is hot and they've already won there a few weeks ago so they won't be intimidated. I think all of the other homes teams will win, but there's always at least one upset.
