Divisional Playoffs, Best Matchup?

Torn between the Packer/Falcon game and the Jets/Patriots.

Think the Jets and Patriots might be the most entertaining, and it's one I wont be able to see.


Going with the popular pick on these games, Packers and Patriots.

Taking Pittsburgh and the Bears, setting the stage for a colossal cold weather showdown at Soldier field between the Bears and the Pack.

Steelers at NE would also be a war, only with more points.

It's tough to vote on this one - the only one I am disinterested in is the Hawks/Bears game. Jets/Pats would likely be my first choice, followed by Packers/Falcons. There's no love lost between Steelers/Ravens, so that one could be good as well.

You guys are nuts. Steelers/Ravens stacks up to be the best game BY FAR. This is probably the best rivalry in the NFL right now and they genuinely HATE each other and play hard nosed football and split the two games this year with the road team winning by 3 points. This one should be epic.

Packers/Falcons promises to be another great game and is a good choice for the second best game of the weekend.

Jets-Pats??? Seriously? What makes you think this game will be different than the game a few weeks ago when the Pats destroyed the Jets in a game that was almost as important as this one? Pats in a cakewalk.

Bears/Seahawks... a 16-6 snoozefest with the Bears advancing.

Ask Drew Brees about cakewalk playoff games. You can probably reach him at home. 8-)

Define a "cakewalk" and did you put money on it?

In terms of the games, if you go by names it has to be Pitt/Balt but I think Packers/Falcons will end up being the best game.

Well that Stealers/Ravens game was entertaining to say the least. Apparently Baltimore was offended at how bad Pittsburgh played in the first half, and felt the need to show everyone that they could play even worse in the second. Nothing like snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. :ohno:

Yeah, yeah... I got three out of four correct. Steelers/Ravens was best game, Bears/Seahawks was a snoozefest, Packers/Falcons was entertaining.

BTW, I'm thrilled to be wrong about the Jets/Pats game, so it was a win/win situation for me. ;)
