Re: NFL Playoffs, Week 2
I would be careful...Carolina is an upset team. Chicago is gonna need to score some points, regardless of the defense. My pick is Carolina (sorry).
Seattle will destroy the Redskins...the last fraud remaining in the playoffs.
AFC is alot more competitive next week.
New England should frighten anyone. They're in the playoffs...and they are AMAZING in the playoffs. Denver weather won't frighten a New England team. Snow favors Brady. In fact, Brady makes me favor New England in this game.
As a Steelers fan, I actually was hoping for this matchup against the Colts. It all depends on how much Pitt decides to play 2 deep and how well the d-line gets after manning. Pitt offense can score against their defense now that Big Ben is healthy. Want the Steelers to win...but must say odds are against it.

Ditto. Unless Pay-a-Ton Manning has a Palmer day.

Me too!
I'm excited about the Colts Vs the Steelers tomorrow. This should be an exciting game. I'm looking forward to actually relaxing and just watching it, instead of dealing with anything else. :)
And New England went DOWN!

Oh man
I thought the final 3 minutes of that was going to put me back in the hospital.
Pittsburg has to kick back to Colts up 21 to 18 with a minute and a half. The defense force the Colts to turn over on downs and gets the ball back on the 4.
Betis fumbles on the next play and it's looking like a highlight trailer runback for the Colts. Ben stops the run, the defense holds one final time and the Colts have to kick a 46 yard for a tie. Way wide right.

Tell me about it!
I was holding my breath sooooo much... man, I could feel it! What an unbelievable tackle Ben made, and what luck it was that the Colts missed the field goal...
Man, this is looking like it may turn out to be a really exciting Super Bowl! The Panthers just finished off the Bears, so it's gonna be Panthers against Seahawks and Steelers against Broncos! I predict it will be Steelers Vs Panthers for the Bowl.

Turns out it did for one guy
[link|http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/football/nfl/specials/playoffs/2005/01/17/bc.fbn.heart.stoppingst.ap/index.html?cnn=yes|Sports Illustrated] Talk about a heart-stopping game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Indianapolis Colts.
Terry O'Neill, 50, of Pittsburgh, was watching the game at a bar and had a heart attack seconds after Jerome Bettis fumbled trying to score from the 2-yard line late in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger prevented the Colts' Nick Harper from returning the recovered ball for a touchdown and the Steelers hung on for a 21-18 win. Hopefully Pittsburg crushes Denver the entire game and spares me this risk. Jay

Re: Turns out it did for one guy
Hopefully Pittsburg crushes Denver the entire game and spares me this risk. I can pray for that outcome, Jay! Take it easy and enjoy the game! The Steelers are already a touchdown and field goal ahead, so we're off to a good start! Brenda

Don't forget to thank the redskins for Bailey!
I think the Broncos got the better end of that trade.
