This has been a great game! I'm pulling for the Panthers, but boy, the Rams are hanging in and may yet win this!

If the Panthers lose this, I am blaming Tishala. She bragged too soon about Bulger's interception!

Woohoo! Panthers win! I swear that game had me a nervous wreck.

That was an AWESOME game! And Tish is safe now from my mock wrath! LOL!

Looks like the Titans/Pats game is shaping up to be a good one as well. Sometimes I think I enjoy the playoffs more when my team ISN'T in it because then I don't get too emotional!

Man what two outstanding games, both were so close they kept me on the edge of my seat the entire game. Originally I said I hoped the Rams would beat the Panthers, but as the game was being played I found myself routing for the Panthers, I had forgotten who their quarterback was. I've only seen this QB play a few times and I've truely enjoyed his knowledge and attitude toward the game.

The Pats game was a nail biter also, I'm glad they ended up pulling it out.

Yes!!!! The Panthers won!?!? We were at a resturaunt watching at the bar- 2 minutes left in overtime and the Rams had just run the ball a ways. I was sooo sure they had it. How many times can a field goal attempt be made, right? Still, we had to go. Going to the movies and it was already moving into the we'll-just'miss'the'previews stage.

Wisconsin is a very, very happy state tonight. On now to tomorrow!

I have to say that I feel bad for Tennessee. I've always liked Jeff Fisher--since he was a defensive coordinator on Buddy Ryan's Eagles--and I really like Eddie George, Jevon, and Steve McNair (between him and Donovan McNabb, I guess I just like those Irish quarterbacks ).

I cannot imagine how cold it was at that stadium, or how the fans handled it. It sounded like Simms and Gumble were just iceblocks in the booth, and the players said on ESPN that every hit either hurt really bad or they didn't feel them because they were so cold.

No way tomorrow's games will match up. The Eagles are gonna trounce the Pack and the KC/Indy game will probably not be close, IMHO, even though I don't really know who will win it.

Jagger, Jake Delhomme is from my hometown!!!! He is the most humble person you would ever want to meet.

Yesterday was perfect for me. The Pats escaped with a win - I never doubted them for a minute - and the Panthers upset the Rams. I agree about the Titans, Tish. McNair is as tough as nails and Fisher coached the Patriots triumvirate of coaches to a standstill. The Pats are extremely tough to beat in NE, particularly in cold weather, and a banged up Titans team came within inches of doing it.

Both games yesterday turned out the opposite of the way I wanted things to go. What I did appreciate was the quality of these two games though--all the teams played tough, and it was a good game in each case.

I've seen nothing but class from all teams yesterday and in the first game today.

Green Bay has class :) From what I hear of the Philly fans- they may not. A seperate section in the stadium just to keep Packer fans safe? Throwing batteries at players? Scary crowd!

Fun game Chiefs v. Colts. Colts haven't won yet, but there's only 2 minutes left and they're leading by a TD AND have the ball. Bet Greg Robinson will be fired before the day's over. LOL

While I was rooting for the Chiefs, I'd like to say congratulations to the Colts. They played an amazing game.

Ditto what Lance said. I hate that I missed most of the game while at lunch, but what I saw was great.

OK, as a Broncos fan for decades as well as a season ticket holder, Elway will always be my main man. If I had to name another QB who came close to providing the same excitement and electricity, Favre would be right up there. My list is short.

However. I have to say my list acquired a third name today, and that would be Peyton. He's a commanding presense on the field. It was highly entertaining watching him call his plays on the line & then change them when he took enough time to make the Chiefs defense commit to their scheme and he could counter it.

Who was the brilliant ••••••• in San Diego who passed on Peyton to draft Ryan Leif as the first rounder? Think he was pulling his hair out today?

I hoped for KC, too, but have to admit, the Colts offense is as good as any I've seen in a long time. New England has a great defense, but I think they're going to have to score 30 or more in order to have a chance.

It was a great game between the Chiefs and Colts, well at least if you like to see a lot of scoring. I'm glad the Colts won but I could feel the Cheifs dissapointment, they've played so good all season and made it to the playoffs for the first time in a long time only to lose a very close high scoring game.

It should be a very good and I'd guess a high scoring game next week between the Colts and the Patriots.

Go Philly, beat them Packers

Today's game between the Chiefs and the Colts was the cleanest I've ever seen. Extremely few penalties, and only one turnover. OMG, it was a pleasure to watch after the Pathers and Rams game last night - I was neutral (even though Colossus has the Panthers in a pool) until Steve Smith took a face mask and a thumb to the eyeball. Man, that whizzed me off. Ridiculous, potential for serious damage, poor sportsmanship. I rooted for the Panthers the rest of the way, and it was only karmic justice that Smith got the winning touchdown (although I have to say I've never seen both teams choke the way those two did last night).

Having said that, GO PACKERS!!!!!!!!

OK. If my Iggles lost today, I was never going to come back here to haunt this thread except to praise the Patriots, especially in anticipation of their effort against that team from the state next to Ohio, but I have had my reprieve. Thank you Brian Dawkins for interceptions in overtime. Thank you Donovan McNabb for 4th and 26. Thank you Andy Reid for whatever I have to thank you for. Thank you Brett Favre for throwing a Bulger-esque interception in overtime.

In the class I am teaching this quarter, I have the starting safety for the UCLA Bruins, and I asked him to name his favorite professional safety in Thursday's class [our first meeting]. He started to tell me about his favorite being on the Cowboys and I told him "NO! I am from Philadelphia and while you are in this class, your favorite safety will be Brian Dawkins from the Eagles. Besides, he's an all pro!"

Thanks for the dumb story Tisha. Have a nice day.

Go Eagles!
