I've never seen a kickoff like that before.

 

[Hustle]

Reminds me of the 05 game in dallas... Un****ingbelievable.

 

[fishwrapper]

Smell that? It's both these teams.

 

[OnTheRiver]

Am I the only one who thinks Pittsburgh will win just because EVERYONE is saying the Jags will win?

Not BECAUSE of it....

I read the other day that the Steelers have never in their history lost to a team at home twice in the same season. Also, it's the AFC championship game, so the Steelers have a good shot.

Since Collinsworth was blabbing earlier about how Taylor is *literally* with the team - the players aren't simply playing with his memory, he is out there - does that mean his ghost blew the coverage on that TD pass?

Same thought I had. Wow.

What happened? I'm covering a basketball game.

I like the OVER in both games, today.
Especially the second one.
Jags in a walkabout.

OVER pays in Game 1.

Trufant with a pick six.

Ballgame.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

Well, that's quite a turnaround.

 

[Hammer Pants]

Someone reminded Todd Collns that he's Todd Collins.

Great effort by Santana Moss, too.

Marcus Trufant is fast.

 

[Angola!]

**** yeah Trufant!

 

[fishwrapper]

Great effort by Santana Moss, too.

Yeah, WTF was that about? He just gave up ... didn't try to make the catch, didn't try to contest the pick, didn't try to tackle the D-back ... nothing. Just gave up and let the defender have it.

Santana Moss career in a nutshell, right there.

This means the TB-Giants winner goes to Dallas and Seattle goes back to Green Bay.

Gonna be a delicious divisional round.

Yep. Horrendous.

WTF? Did the equipment guys pack up his body in dry ice for the trip west?

 

[Tom Petty]

i dunno. i think seattle poses some problems for GB.

As a Packers fan, I am happy about that.

We want the ball and we're going to win, right Buck?

Hasselbeck isn't a good enough QB to win that kind of game on the road. He's always been one of those QBs who puts up pretty good numbers but either makes a killer mistake, fails to make a decisive big play, or otherwise ends up just short of greatness (I think that last one was actually a headline for a Seattle newspaper column on him after last year's playoff loss in Chicago).

Even today, while he played very well in stretches, he threw picks on back to back possessions that could have been fatal.
