    Did anyone notice what the Dolphins did this season? Not that I'm a fan, but I assure you there is some envy here in Bungle Land... I'll root for whoever knocks off the Steelers... Eli and Peyton are the last 2 champs, would make for a compelling backdrop...

    The Dolphins are an amazing story... Can't take the thought of Colts - Giants. It will be Manning Mania.

    It Starts Tonight with the Colts and Chargers. Hopefully I can report back here Monday morning with the news of The Colts advancing. Haha.

    I was 1 and 3 - not so good. Eagles vs. Giants should be a good game.

Ravens have a real shot at getting to the Super Bowl. If I were a betting man (which I am) I would bet on a Manning vs Manning

    Congrats on the Eagles advancing!

    I am bummed the dolphins lost today.
    I wanted them to win since my team was no where close to winning :(

    Cheer up, you had a team in the playoffs to get bummed about. I had a team in September to get bummed about. Playoffs? Don't talk about playoffs! :(

    Well, I guess it's OK as long as little Manning can get another ring. I don't even know what to predict now. I just can't blame anything on Peyton because it isn't his fault he is the MVP after all. It's our rushing offense and rushing defense just sucks so so horribly. So, what's the match-ups now? There are 8 teams left right? Chargers, Cardinals, Baltimore, Philly, Titans, Steelers, Panthers, and Giants? I just don't know who plays who. I Chargers played Titans probably wrong though.
  • Jan 5, 2009, 08:22 AM

    Now it's Ravens @ Titans, Cardinals @ Panthers, Eagles @ Giants, Chargers @ Steelers.
  • Jan 5, 2009, 09:00 AM
    adam_89

    Ok thank you. Now if I may, I will make a prediction even though I haven't followed with many of the teams, but still know a bit about them.

    Titans beat Ravens

    Panthers beat Cardinals

    Eagles beat Giants

    Steelers beat Chargers

    Then I see it being Titans vs. Panthers

    Then Hopefully Panthers winning.

    Any comments?

    I could see the Ravens making it there

    The Eagles beat the Giants in their last meeting, but that essentially was a "playoff" game for Philly. This time, expect the Giants to play like they mean it. Super Bowl XLIII prediction: Giants 19, Steelers 17.
  • Jan 8, 2009, 04:56 AM
    adam_89

    That is a very very likely game to happen. That would be my second guess. I can't wait until Sunday so I can watch some football! Then we will have a better idea

    C'mon man, let's hear your first guess! I put mine out there for the world to bash!

    Here is a post from a few days ago that I put on here. As far as score goes I would say Panthers 24 Titans 20

    Ravens 10 Eagles 7 Defense wins championships my friends.

    I picked the Chargers to beat the Steelers since Big Ben's Bell got rung two weeks ago remember the motorcycle accident and how badly he played after that concussion.

    Ok...

    Titans beat Ravens
    Panthers beat Cardinals
    Giants beat Eagles
    Steelers beat Chargers

    Giants beat Panthers
    Steelers beat Titans

    Giants beat Steelers
    Final: Giants 21, Steelers 17

    All this looks so real and so likely. I just don't know. I like jj's prediction. That's what I am hoping, but steelers have the best overall defense in the league. I'm sad the Colt's are out, and I almost guarantee the chargers aren't even going to advance past next round.
  • Jan 8, 2009, 12:57 PM

    Steelers do have the Best D then Ravens then Eagles. But if Big Ben isn't right the Chargers might eat them up. I really think the Eagles are going to BLOW OUT the Giants on Sunday. Jacobs is just starting to practice this week and Tuck missed practice again.


    **Note: Usually my predictions are wrong**

    I don't make many predictions. I am trying it out so we will see how it goes. Haha
  • Jan 8, 2009, 05:09 PM

    So far: Me - Giants 19, Steelers 17. Adam - Panthers 24, Titans 20. Spitvenom - Ravens 10, Eagles 7. Jj - Giants 21, Steelers 17. Stringer - Steelers 24, Giants 17. I like the picks AND the supporting arguments for each. Good job men! Anybody else?
  • Jan 8, 2009, 06:19 PM

    Personal feelings; Steelers 24 Giants 17

    I've been to Philly once... tourist thing... I found it very beautiful and the people were great during my visit. I would recommend visiting Philly to anyone interested.

    Philly is a cool city I can't imagine living anywhere else. Although the neighborhood I live in can be a little dangerous lot of drug dealers. And the city wage tax is horrible.

    Well... I'm 0-2 on the day. I can't believe the Cardinals killed the Panthers - I didn't think they'd make it out of the first round. Guess it shows what I know!
  • Jan 11, 2009, 12:50 AM

    A bad day for the home teams. You have to be impressed with the Cardinals. They are peaking at the best possible time. Now for some stats: The Chargers are 0-13 in regular season games, 2-0 in playoff games at Pittsburgh. Something has to give... P.S. adam_89, want to change those Super Bowl picks yet?
