Crazy how hot the Packers are at the moment.
And how Aaron Rodgers continues to do Aaron Rodgers things lol.

I know its amazing, they dropped, what 4 straight, and Rodgers that if they run the table for the rest of the season they could get into the play offs - they not only did that but beat the Cowboys. I wasn't expecting anyone to beat them.
I think the Steelers have a chance. Just give Bell the ball when they're close to the 1st. Didn't understand why they threw on 2nd & 2 a couple of times.
Tough organization

I love seeing stuff like this.Ben isn't as good on the road, but I saw this graphic and thought this bodes well for the Steelers
You should start charging rent to the Patriots for living in your head like that.
And we have a legit gripe against Goodell, although I don't think he hates the Patriots, he's just a sock puppet for the owners.
Seattle always seem slow to get out of the gate. They look sloppy and play poorly in the first couple of games and then things start clicking.
Oh please because I wrote a comment about them in a message thread about football they are living in my head? they happen to be one of the last 4 teams left to talk about.... that's the kind of smug everyone is thinking of us attitude that makes Pats fans and the team so disliked outside of boston... perfect example
yeah but when Goddell was being a sock puppet for Kraft you weren't complaining right? when all the spygate tapes were destroyed because Goddell was a guest at kraft's house for holiday parties, he wasn't a problem then right?

I'm friends with these people.

Agreed. I'm not sure an NFL team will do well in Vegas.
Yeah I'm also not sure about a second team in L.A.... I mean these folks are a lot smarter than me but it seems like these moves they are making aren't really well thought out.
I feel bad for Raider Nation. Team finally returned to respectability and now Mark Davis is pushing for the move to Vegas.
Not cool.
Oakland is going to lose The Raiders and Golden State Warriors. Wow.
The A's are still struggling to get a new stadium built too. smh.
Ya'd think just from the gambling aspect of it they wouldn't let any team from any sport move there... ya'd think.
Except that some owners have a stake in online gambling site Fanduel. I don't see too much difference in them making money on that, vs. being in Las Vegas
Well, I'm going off the fact that it is so easy to fall in with the wrong crowd, and be influenced by said crowd, to do things or, not do things, in a game. I'm borderline on believing that the NFL & NBA aren't fixed already anyway. This isn't going to help.
If you think I'm naive and that isn't how things happen anymore, I hope you'll forgive me for thinking you naive as well for not realizing just how easy it is for that to still happen in this day and age.
And that isn't a personal jab at you @maflynn.
[doublepost=1484911019][/doublepost]Also, I'm tire of picking. My picks were sh*t.
imma just say, "GO FALCONS!".
My prediction it will be Green Bay -vs- New England (Though I would love to see a Green Bay -vs Pittsburgh matchup)
Definitely agree with you on the steelers... .But the other game I am having trouble picking, on the one hand Rodgers has been on another level and they are rolling... but the Falcons offense as a whole has been on another level all season, plus they are home and the Packers defense isn't that good. Man I think I am just going to sit back and enjoy this one, I don't really mind either team making it, I like Rodgers and he deserves it but I also think Matt Ryan is a great humble guy who is playing well so he deserves it too.
For the AFC game I really think if the Steelers can get the running game going, and Ben doesn't turn it over they have a good chance, they have more talent on the offense and their defense has been playing great lately. They just can't settle for field goals like they did with KC. And they need to put some pressure on Brady, I know everyone thinks he's a god but he is a 39 year old QB playing in the cold, they have to get a few hits on him.
