Playoff games this weekend, per ESPN:

• Saturday (two AFC games):
  • #5 Kansas City @ #4 Houston, 4:20pm EST
  • #6 Pittsburgh @ #3 Cincinnati, 8:15pm EST
• Sunday (two NFC games):
  • #6 Seattle @ #3 Minnesota, 1:05pm EST
  • #5 Green Bay @ #4 Washington, 4:40pm EST
• AFC top 2 seeds:
  • #1 Denver, home-field throughout the playoffs
  • #2 New England, have lost 4 of last 6 games
• NFC top 2 seeds:
  • #1 Carolina, home-field throughout the playoffs
  • #2 Arizona, we won't know how big a deal it was for them to get killed by Seattle in Week 17, until AZ plays their first playoff game

That's different; for the last few decades it was 1 AFC and 1 NFC on Saturday, and then on Sunday it was 1 NFC and 1 AFC
One thing I noticed in the Seattle - Arizona game there were a lot of names on the Seahawks side I've never seen before; that RB Brown, he had to be one of our recent additions since RB's are dropping like flies; Coffman as a WR, where did he come from? I don't know if they were just letting all of the 2nd and 3rd string players play, or we really have that many people out.

I am desperately hoping the Bengals, Vikings, Redskins, and Chiefs win their games because the alternatives are so freaking boring. Overall, I hope it comes down to the Cards/Panthers in the NFC and Bengals/Patriots in AFC.

Btw, the greatest hype vid I've ever seen. Goosebumps:

Is there a "do not like button" around here some place?

Is there a "do not like button" around here some place?

Yeah, it's right next to the "Groan" button in the Jokes Thread.

I am saying my prayers for the Bengals. Without Dalton, and given that Pittsburgh hates the Bengals and the Bengals hate the Pittsburghers, it's going to be a messy game. I have no idea who's going to win, but I'm pretty sure the score is going to be very close.

Did someone forget to call the real Houston players and tell them there was a game today?
This is a snore fest, KC 27 - Hou 0 with 4 minutes left in the 4th.
Houston just wasn't into the game at all, and KC took real advantage of it.

KC impressed me today. Pitt not so much, although weather was certainly a big factor there.

Sadly, that game will be remembered for the epic dumb+++edness of a couple Cincy defenders at the end.

Agreed, they had the game won, and gave it away. The game was nothing but emotion for most of the 4th quarter.
Let's hope today's games don't play out as badly as yesterday's.

I invite Forum members to pray for the health of Vontaze Burfict and Adam Jones, whose physical health may be in jeopardy and whose value to humanity is currently in question!

That was the most disgusting last 2 minutes of a game that I have ever seen. The Bungles are truly cursed!

GO SEAHAWKS!! A lucky win, but a win none the less.
Much better behaved game then a lot of others have been; they were almost gentlemen in the beginning, helping each other up, no antics.
It was -6 at the start of the game, 0 at the end (that's still way to cold for me).
On to the showboats.
