They are a great team and you already know my relationship with them. However, remember that aside from the Jets there is no one in that division with any substance at all so 4 of the games are gimmies right out of the gate. Steelers can beat them, Ravens can beat them and so can the Colts. It is all going to depend on the game plan and if they can pressure Tommy. Throw out the regular season stats when it comes to the playoff's. Remember the "Perfect season and how it ended" They got a true shot for one for the thumb but it will depend a lot on who they play and how well the other guy is prepared to play them. There run defense is not great either

Statistically, Miami is better on the season defensively. Lately, it ain't doing a lot for them. Especially today. I think the stats may have been influenced over the past several weeks but it isn't reflected in the season stats. And, a lot of the teams with better season stats on defense haven't got a hope to go all the way.

It's what I call "peaking at the right time". As I said before, The Belly seems to be able to get the peaking thing down PAT.

In the end, all I really want is to watch exciting football. That Pats game today was okay for a while, but... you know.

Biggest thing for me was seeing the Pats' replacements step up and play amazing games... that Edelman is fucking amazing... and he sits on the sidelines waiting for a chance to play. When you have weapons like that on the sidelines it gives me hopes that number 4 is on the way.

Only thing I am sad about is the kicker, but he is good for every field goal so far... but... can he replace a kicker that is even better than Vinny? It may be the deciding factor if the Pats get to the show.

Sunday, Jan. 16

NFC: Philadelphia or Seattle or New Orleans at Chicago
AFC: Kansas City or Baltimore or N.Y. Jets at New England

The Patriots have a pretty good gauntlet to traverse Jets, Steelers, Colts, Chiefs, Ravens, they will have to beat two of those teams each coming off victories, and not a 7-9 team in the bunch. They are probably the best in the AFC but if they make it to the Superbowl, they will have earned it.

The NFC is a different story. The Saints seemed to have peaked at the right time the teams with better records look vunerable. The only team without a good chance, I think, is Seattle.

What a great day of playoff football! Two highly contested matches and in both cases the underdogs won. This is why the NFL is the greatest sports league in the world. Any given Sunday. Or Saturday in this case.

Apparently, even with three personal fouls not called against BAL so far, the may not bowl over KC with their physical size. I LOVE it! I HATE dirty play. But it still doesnèt look the best for KC.

I don't really care except that I was a big fan of the Steelers for a while. Perhaps, better put, I was a fan of the players during "that time". Watching The Steel Curtain, Bradshaw.... that was GREAT football. In 1976, after Bradshaw went down The Curtain shut out 5 of the last nine games (three in a row!) and allowed only two TDs and 5 FGs... unFUCKINGreal.

Minds me, Grogan started the year before and I was was already a died in the wool Pats fan due to our natural ties with the Eastern States. I always loved to watch Grogan play. Too bad the NFL doesn't keep the stats on most broken bones. >;-) Nobody will ever beat his record.

Anything can happen in the second half... I went for a walk in the coooold fresh air before the half ended.

I am looking forward to the next game. Got my long johns on, my big football slippers and my Pats hoody ready and I will turn down the heat in the house, crack a Bud and shove the pizza in the oven. Better than being in the stands.

No way the Jets will stay in this game if their QB keeps overthrowing wide open receivers ... brought up 4th and 1 and they had to punt ... that receiver was wide open and he keeps over throwing them.   Big Ben won't do that ... will be interesting whoever plays the Steelers
