The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

I stand corrected.

Bengals and Chiefs will blow it because it's what they do. Pack and Seahawks to win in NFC.

Well my Chiefs prediction was about as accurate as my prediction this morning about the Villa.

First playoff win since Joe was there.

I was based in Wichita for the best part of a decade, and was a regular attendee at Arrowhead for much of this period. The number of times they had a great pre-season only to founder in the first play-off round was irritating, to say the least. 

Good defensive performance today, but the injuries might tell.

I stand corrected.

Yes you do. 

The Bengals are a disgrace.  Similar to Baltimore a few years ago, they are just so pumped to beat their division rivals the Steelers they let themselves get out of control.  Ultimately it cost them the game, they shot themselves in the foot.

[dubont]

The Bengals just might be the dumbest team ever.

My picks for the wildcard weekend:

Steelers will beat the Bengals
Chiefs will beat the Texans
Vikings will beat the Seahawks
Packers will beat the Redskins

Going solely on how good they were when I was into it on the 80s...

Pittsburgh to beat The Bengals
Kansas to beat whoever the Texans are
Minnesota to beat Seattle
Washington to beat Green Bay

What was the story about the Bengals players running into the tunnel? SSN showed a bit this morning and then didn't say anything about it in their main NFL coverage.

They were celebrating an interception, from memory. Brilliant last quarter, the bengals out-villa'd villa with their brainless self-destruction.

I hope that Adrian Peterson gets frost bite and his fingers fall off. he should be in jail for what he did to one of his kids

Well not quite summery justice, but he's probably cost his team with that fumble.

Oh ffs. How did he miss that ?

No, the Ice Bowl is still the coldest.
Tonight was only the 4th coldest play off game according to the Danish commentators.
