Julius Jones with another rushing TD. Game on.

[DJLJ]

What a run from Lynch.

[DJLJ]

Goes to show how much I know, first of my four predictions turned out wrong.

[stevienando]

So. The Saints are out and I am 30 quid up.

Yeah it does. Your second one will go down now too.

[Carvalho Diablo]

After 8 and a half years of ripping me off at nearly £75 a month, last year I told Sky to go and fuck themselves, get the fucking lot out...but I must concede, I do miss their coverage of the NFL.

 

It's the only fucking thing I do miss though.

[DJLJ]

Fair play to you for calling that one Dave. And I hope you are right, my trash talking earlier will be nothing compared to Rex Ryan if the Jets win.

[dave u]

The Jets just aren't that good, and I don't see 18 losing a home playoff game to them.

 

I fancied Seattle because on their day they are dangerous and they've got the loudest crowd in the NFL and the Saints really aren't that good anymore. Very over rated from what I've seen, and living on their reputation from last season. Seattle beat the Bears at Soldier Field, but I'd really fancy us to beat them if we meet again. Need the Pack to win for that to happen.

 

Never thought I'd ever say this, but....

 

Go Pack Go!!

[RedKnight]

This Jets game would be better if Sanchez actually threw it his receivers.

[DJLJ]

Wow, what a huge penalty by the Colts. Turning a 4th and 5 into a 1st and 10 and 3 mins left.

[Saucepan]

Hail Mary time for the new JERSEY jets?

[DJLJ]

Very well played Jets, especially the second half when they came out running the football, which they should have done in the first half also. Feel for Vinatieri, came so close to another game winning FG.

 

We'll hear from Rex Ryan every day now until next weekend. Hopefully we can shut him up, for this season atleast.

[stevienando]

Two Superbowl teams are out on the first day.

[Saucepan]

Haha, the golden boy Peyton Manning goes out in yet another playoff, I absolutely love it.

[Malarkey]

Chiefs and Eagles for me.

 

Chiefs vs. Steelers.

[RedKnight]

Both games were great yesterday for differing reasons. The 1st half of the Colts game was dull but as the scores were so tight, the tension was ramped up. Today's games will do well to provide the same excitement. The Chiefs have got long odds for a division winning playoff team at home (who aren't Seattle), worth a flutter.

[Carradona]

I got both my predictions wrong, so I'm sticking some money on a double for the opposite of what I think will happen in the next two wildcard games.

[RedKnight]

Betfred (I know, I know) is offering singles with good odds to pick both teams to win today. So you can pick Ravens/packers as a single but get some sweet odds. The manc twat.

[DJLJ]

That was a one sided encounter. I'd have thought the Chiefs would have been able to use their pace on the defence to put more pressure on Flacco, but especially in the second half it seemed like they ran out of steam. Well deserved win for the Ravens and I am now 1 right and 2 wrongs in my predictions for this weekend. Not great by any means.

 

Lets hope the last game can be a little more interesting. The 2 ones yesterday was great, todays first game less so.

Murdering felchers will get theirs.

[Woo]

Bring on the Steelers!!

[dave u]

I'm 1 for 4 on play off predictions! It started so well too.

 

Packers backed their way into it, Eagles kicker their MVP tonight.

 

Now bring on the Seahawks!

[Brownie]

Nah, you won't. The Eagles will be rubbing their hands together after watching that. A Bears team with nothing to play for, using half a playbook so as not to give anything away for the playoffs, took you right down to the wire in your most important game of the season.

 

You're a one and done team like the Seahawks. You won't be seeing us again until next year, unfortunately for us as I'd much prefer to face you than any of the other NFC playoff teams, including Seattle who beat us a lot more convincingly than you did.

 

Hmmm. Eagles rubbing their hands? Well they do have some spare time to do some other stuff other than playing ball now!

 

If the Seahawks beat you next week you'll never live this post down!

 

Go Pack go!!
