It's Steelers @ Broncos.
Saturday: 4:30 - Bengals @ Texans 8:00 - Lions @ Saints
Sunday: 1:00 - Falcons @ Giants 4:30 - Broncos @ Steelers
Wild Card Bengals > Texans Saints > Lions Falcons > Giants Steelers > Broncos
Divisional New England > Bengals Steelers > Ravens (Suck a fat one flacco you suck ass) Falcons > Packers Saints > San Francisco
Conference Steelers > New England Saints > Falcons
Superbowl Steelers > Saints
And with that the Steelers extend their Superbowl lead to 7 World championships since the merger. Antonio Brown wins the mvp and is going to Disney Land.

Gonna be an amazing postseason. I love the NFL more every year. After watching the Giants play tonight, I think they might be the most balanced team in the playoffs. There are three elite teams I would rank above them obviously: Packers, Saints, Patriots - but all of those teams have horrendous secondaries and rely on out-scoring their opponents (and takeaways for the Saints). The Giants D has been getting progressively better, they have a legitimate chance at playing the dark horse. Meanwhile in the AFC, if Joe Flacco was even 10% better, I would have the Ravens as a lock for the super bowl.
Texans > Bengals Saints > Lions Giants > Falcons Steelers > Tebow
Patriots > Steelers Ravens > Texans Packers > Giants Saints > 49ers
Patriots > Ravens Saints > Packers
Saints > Patriots

Matt Flynn throwing for 6TDs is pretty hilarious record-setting performance for GB. He did something neither Rodgers or Favre have done in 1 game!
Also, how the hell did Jim Schwartz not have any challenges left so early in the game? And I thought all scoring plays were reviewed, so why didn't they review that touchdown that became a field goal? That shit woulda tied the game.

All scoring plays are reviewed if they were ruled a scoring play on the field. It was ruled incomplete, so therefor Schwartz had to challenge it (which he couldn't).
Also, Tom Brady & Matthew Stafford also threw for 5,000+ yards, but no one seems to notice that. Recordbreaking NFL year (and send stafford to the pro bowl omg! Manning ffs?)

Lets make this clear. When making your picks the Patriots play the lowest winning seed from the wild card round and the Ravens play the highest winning seed. Same for the NFC. Packers play the lowest winning seed and Sf plays the highest winning seed. Please pick accordingly. TheHaxor wrote: Lol @ all the people picking Green Bay to lose at home That idea isn't unreasonable. The Lions came close last night and the NFC is pretty much identical as far as team content goes. They all have amazing defenses with weak defenses (with the exception of SF). Seeing as Packers have the worst defense of the bunch I could see Saints beating them easily. I haven't watched the Giants this year so I don't know if they would be able to. Detroit can definitely beat the Packers given the chance, although they do have about 16 years of losing to GB working against them...

Wild card Bengals < Texans - This one could get interesting with Yates' status for the game being in doubt, Houston having to put the old timers in. The homefield advantage should help. Has the potential to be a good game. Saints > Lions - Sorry Stafford, but you can't keep up with Brees, especially considering how bad your defense has been performing lately. Giants < Falcons - This could go either way, but I like Turner a bit more on the ground than Bradshaw or Jacobs of late. Should be a pretty good game. Steelers > Broncos - Denver will get shit on. This should be a fun game for Big Ben.
Divisional Ravens > Texans - Their lack of a proper quarterback finally catches up with them against the #2 defense all year and the Ravens move on. Patriots > Steelers - Hardest pick for me yet. The Patriots usually beat them, but last year it wasn't the case. I'll bet on Brady vs. a good, but aging Steeler defense at home. Saints > 49ers - Surprise, Alex Smith can't keep up with Brees either. Their defense is good, but not good enough to stop New Orleans. Packers > Falcons - This affair will be closer than last years' for sure, but the Falcons will still lose.
Championship games Patriots < Ravens - The Ravens play ball control, and win a close one. You can't rely on Gronkowski for EVERYTHING with Reed on the field. Packers < Saints - Shootout of the masters. The Saints D makes a few extra plays, and the offense runs better than Green Bay's. Rodgers isn't happy after a 15-1 regular season record.
Superbowl Ravens > Saints - Brees' fire runs out from the NFC championship game, and ends up turning the ball over one or two too many times, losing a close one vs. Baltimore.

It's BS that they don't automatically review any questionable call that was in the end zone. Also, you shouldn't have to use a challenge on a play where the player was down for 3 seconds and standing up before he "fumbled". I actually prefer the college system. Any replay can come from upstairs whenever they buzz down. If a coach feels the play was screwed up he can call a timeout and it'll give the replay officials an in-depth look at the play.

As stated above, #1 seed plays the lowest seed and #2 seed gets the other team. That's kind of why people want them to re-seed BEFORE the playoffs even start as well. It gives teams that have nothing to play for, something to play for. You also don't reward teams like last years' Seahawks or this years' NFC East winner with home field advantage with a worse record than a wild card. One could argue the NFC East is brutal blah blah blah but I'm not so certain.
