But they did keep the game alot closer then anybody thought they would & came up just short of beating them.
But knowing the Giants sporadic play they might not even make it past the Buccaneers in the first round.

I hope not...

Congrats to the Pats. Hoo-rah!! I have now seen Boston take a World Series and an undefeated football season. My hopes are that they will sweep. They deserve it. What a game, what a season.

Of course; bask in the shining beams of your radiant coolness...

Chargers rallied after a 1-3, 5-5 start to finish strong with 6 straight wins and LT wins the rushing title again(with a lil help from injuries to the competition,Peterson/Parker). AFC west champs again and third seed in the playoffs...I like our chances to at least make it to the championship game and maybe they can get lucky against the Pats...we'll see.Anything can happen...

[Mr. Blofeld]

Anything can happen...

Yes, and the Ice Cream Bunny just drove his fire engine past my house...

Seriously, I hope your team has a good postseason; they've been killing for it.

Now don't get cocky.As everyone should know now that the playoffs are about to start is that the last 16 games mean nothing.In the playoffs you have to take it game by game.Any team has a chance in the playoffs hence why they're in the playoffs to begin with(in most cases)but if you would like to take the season into account then all i'll say is that the Patriots could have easily been 12-4 instead of 16-0.I was bummed the Titans got in as i was hoping for the Browns to get the final spot but hey at least the Browns got to a double digit win season for the first time in along time.

Totally agree with all the picks even though it wont mean thing. Since it will end up Colts vs Pats in the AFC. Pats win of course

I think that Jacksonville and San Diego will give both New England and Indianapolis very good games when the second round of the playoffs start. Jacksonville is, IMO, the most underrated team in the NFL (how they don't have a Pro-Bowl player on the roster is amazing considering the great season that they've had), and would have a great chance against either New England or Indianapolis.

San Diego, despite a slow start because of the need to get on the same page with the new coach, have been one of the hottest teams in football for the past month or so, and are going to be a team to watch out for in the playoffs, and is my pick to win the AFC and face Green Bay (my NFC pick) in the Super Bowl.

[minder125]

Oh I totally think the AFC games are all going to be great and hard fought. But I think both the Colts and Pats are so experienced in the playoffs that it will be second nature to them. Trust me I'd love ot see the Colts knocked out. Since they will give the toughest game the Pats will face. On the NFC side I'm rooting for the Packers to make it all the way.

[Cruiserweight]

Colts>Patriots

[007Bond]

Colts>Patriots

I'm agree. And I love each of them...but...Pats on the go !!

[The Dove]

Well the first head coach has gotten the ax.. Baltimore has fired Brian Billick!! check out espn.go.com or www.nfl.com for the story..

Other firings that have take place... Parcells has fired the Dolphins GM Randy Mueller.. Marv Levy has resigned as GM of the Buffalo Bills, and it is expected that the Detroit Lions are gonna fire offensive coordinator Mike Martz..

The last time the two # 1 seeds went to the show was 1993 and my 2006 14-2 Chargers are part of that group of failures...

I give the Chargers a puncher's chance because NE's veteran defense, while very good, is kinda... old. My main concern is the huge disparity in the quality of the Qbs.

[The Dove]

Well to no-one's total surprise, The Dolphins have fired coach Cam Cameron after a dreadful 1-15 season. I had a feeling that once Bill Parcells took over as VP, he would want a total revamping of the organization.

[Cruiserweight]

Well i was wrong with the Redskins but right about Jacksonville so i went 1-1 today.

[Cruiserweight]

3-1 for the weekend,not bad.


Next weeks games predictions:
Jacksoville at New England
San Diego at Indianapolis
Seattle at Green Bay
New York at Dallas


Mind you i wouldn't mind seeing the Jaguars beat the Patriots(i hope they do)but i just don't see them doing so & the Chargers-Colts game is a toss up for me.

[Tarl_Cabot]

SD finally wins a playoff game!!!!!

But they loose Gates with a bad toe and is questionable for next week.

[minder125]

Here are my picksfor the upcoming games

New England (like I'll ever pick against my team)
Green Bay
Indianapolis
Dallas (even though I hope the Giants pull it out)

Okay I'm gonna dare and make my picks for this weekend!

Giants over The Cowboys
Colts over The Chargers (no Antonio Gates that really hurts San Diego's chances)
The Packers over The Seahawks ( I guarentee Matt Hasselback will keep his mouth shut when it comes to the coin toss this year!! LOL)

and for my upset The Jaguars over The Patriots. As much as I love New England, Jacksonville is the one team that I think will knock them out but we'll see.

My buddy is flying out from Chicago to watch the Charger game...he plans to bet on the Jags. I would loooooooooooooooooooooooooooove to see the Jags upset the Pats...but I think the Jags will loose...but their effort will wear down that old Pats D and set up an upset for SD.

OK, so I am a homer! Go Bolts!!

I'm a homer too, but I don't think the Chargers have a chance against The Colts. The only thing that will happen with the Pats might be they don't cover the spread. Pats will win and still piss off the Anti Pats bandwagon lead by the 72 Dolphins.

[Cruiserweight]

Wow,the Chargers won!
The Chargers are the only thing standing in the way of the Patriots making the Super Bowl.
Go Chargers!

Like i've said before to others don't get too cocky.
I think Ladainian Tomlinson,Brett Favre,& Eli Manning will all have something to say about that.In other news the Giants won! So two high seeds get eliminated today & for once the younger Manning is moving on while the older Manning is headed home.

So next week it'll be



AFC Championship
San Diego Chargers at New England Patriots

&


NFC Championship
New York Giants at Green Bay Packers
