Re: NFL Playoffs Week Three!!!!

I want GB to win but I think the Hawks will win. I want the Colts to win over Pats. Pats have had their turn a lot and for some reason Brady (even though he is a great player) comes off as a baby to me.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Re: NFL Playoffs Week Three!!!!

And it's game day!!! These should be some good games today. I'm a bit more worried about the Green Bay/Seattle game becoming a bit one-sided, but hopefully the Packers can take the smirk off the face of the Seahawk's defenders who are getting and acting a little cocky.

I think the Colts have a shot at going toe to toe with the Patriots. It looks like their Trent Richardson experiment is now officially ended. He was one of those polarizing guys when he came out in the draft. Many thought he'd be a great pro, but there were a number of guys who had grave doubts about him. It turns out the doubters were right this time around. He's looked slow, indecisive, and a bit lost with the ball in his hands. It'll be interesting to see if the Colts even keep him around for training camp or just write him off as a bad investment. Bigger backs have to be decisive and hit the hole going full speed, but he's more of a dancer and tentative and that just gets him tackled. It takes a certain mindset to attack the line of scrimmage and Richardson seems to lack that mindset. He's got the size/speed you look for, but the heart just doesn't seem to be there.

And I was wrong about Cutler and John Fox having experience together. It turns out Cutler was traded to the Bears (2009) before John Fox became the head coach of the Broncos (2011.) They've never been together before this, so it'll be interesting to see how that works out in Chicago.

Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!

Really??? The Seahawks deserve a little more respect. They take one game at a time and don't worry about last week or next week. Go HAWKS!!!

Oh, cookie, the Hawks rarely get the respect they deserve. I think we're pretty used to it by now. We'll just have to "smirk on" today and let our talent speak for itself! GO HAWKS!

Re: NFL Playoffs Week Three!!!!

I too would LOVE to see the Packers and Colts win their games today. If, by some miracle that happened, I would cheer for the Colts even though they eliminated my Broncos!!

Well, you didn't earn the right to play Green Bay after the "homer" call against Detroit. GO PACK!!

Re: NFL Playoffs Week Three!!!!

Well, that was an interesting first half of football. Way, way more turnovers than you'd expect, but it's working out well for the Packers so far. Russell Wilson does not look right today. This second half will be interesting to see.

Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!
