Chiefs V Cowboys. Would make my day, as one side of the family favors each. Personally, I want the Chiefs to knock out the Patriots, as they do enough winning already.

The best State-Texas

Greenbay vs the Cowboys... I think we (Cowboys) have a pretty good shot of beating the packers.

I really hope that NE loses to the Texans. Unlikely, but I would like it.

I think the conference is going to be KC and NE, with ATL and the Cowboys. We will see though!

Interesting tidbit, that it seems each team that was at home won the WIldcard!

Great game by the Steelers with Bell and Brown.
I wonder if they can win the title.

Of course they can!

It really is pretty wide open right now.

Except for the Texans.

They've got no shot.

Yeah, it's amazing that Houston has managed to stumble its way this far. Although Ostweiler did manage to play a lot better v. the Raiders. Just enough so that the quarterback schizophrenia will continue :-)

I would love to see the Cowboys take down NE in Houston. Just don't see it happening.

Well, I havent seen the Texans.
I guess that New England is the favorite in the AFC and Dallas in the NFC.
I'd prefer the Steelers.

You don't see those two teams meeting in the Super Bowl, or you don't see Dallas beating NE in the Super Bowl if they meet there?

Because both of those things can absolutely happen!

I was at the game. It was fun if you're a Steelers fan.

Fifteen degree air temperature was cold but manageable. My beer was a slushie in minutes, but I've been to games around that temp before. However, the wind that knocked it down to a zero wind chill was a little rough.

Steelers can absolutely beat KC (not guaranteeing the win, just saying it's very doable). NE at home...will be tough. I'll certainly be rooting for the Texans to pull a monster upset.

I want to say yes, but unfortunately Osweiler has already beaten Brady and the Pats (twice!) in 'games that really matter'.

Sure, he had the Denver D to help him with that, as well as some horrendous Special Teams play on the Pats' part, but...

OK, I do think the Patriots should and will win, but I'm not ready to get too cocky about it yet!

I don't see Dallas beating NE at this point. It absolutely could happen; I just wouldn't bet on it. Plus, they still have to win the conference, which is no joke!

NE can't get cocky about Houston; but I doubt they have much to worry about. It will be the game after that where it really heats up...

I think the Steelers will win, because KC's usual advantage isn't really one for this game as Pittsburgh deals with the same sort of freeze your balls to the bleachers type cold. That, and I just don't see KC as being quite as complete a team as Pitt... but they still have playmakers.

Let's not forget what happened the last time the Seahawks played the Patriots.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

Interesting tid bit, can't remember where I saw the article but It's been said that a Dallas/NE super bowl would probably be the highest grossing of all time considering the franchises.

MSN I believe mentioned that too. Any way you look at it we should have a good weekend of football, except Houston...

Speaking of Super, and I mean SUPER Bowls, today is the anniversary of Super Bowl III when 'Broadway' Joe Namath and the NY Jets upset the nigh invincible and heavily favored Baltimore Colts back in 1969.

Brisbane, Australia

When I was 15 I got sick of playing rugby (I'm an Aussie) and looked for another sport to get into, found out that there was a local American football team so I gave the coach a call and headed down to practice. It was a short live career. I played two seasons and only scored one touch down, tearing my hamstring in the process.

I had a blast every game and eventually decided I had to pick a team to follow in the NFL. I a followed a couple of teams for a little while (Giants and Bears) before landing on the only team no one at my local football club followed.. The ultimate underdog team The Cleveland Browns. Ten years on they are still my team! though come playoff time I throw my weight behind a team each year.

This year I'd really like the Falcons to take it all!

Third in total yards, second in pass yardage, twelfth in points, twenty-first in rushing yards. They had an awesome passing game but had trouble scoring touchdowns in the red zone. The running game was nothing to write home about but they occasionally had good games, just ask Helgrenze what they did to the Eagles on the ground.

And yeah, he's an up and comer... the dude is only 30 years old.
