Steelers.

 

[herkulease]

1st rd.
Rams over Seahawks (its a toss up for me two teams who limped into playoffs, rams coming off high from comeback should continue momentum while seahawks barely won.

Packers over Vikings(Vikings barely made it and alot of the guys gave up until they got a close to scoring and started to pick up to the pace when it was too late)

Chargers over Jets

Colts over Broncos(Broncos showed everything they had on sunday giving peyton the whole game to study them)

2nd Rd.
Steelers over Chargers

Colts over Pats (the injuries will eventually catch up to the Pats) Turnovers killed the Colts in week 1, @ foxboro and the Pats weren't as injured either. and the Pats barely won by 3.

Eagles over Rams

Falcons over Packers

Championships
Colts over Steelers in a squeaker

Eagles over Falcons

Superbowl
Colts over Eagles (close game, relatively low scoring, in the 20s, but unless Owens comes back the McNabb and Co. will not be able to put up enough points to fend off peyton, not saying the Colts D are gonna dominate, but will be able to put enough pressure on recievers when the time comes)

are you completely retarded? they played scrubs in those "blowout losses," one game against a team that was fighting to get in the playoffs, and one that was fighting for a .500 record.

And your point is? Of course you can't expect 2nd and 3rd stringers to go up against any NFL team and win. But you also can't deny the effect of those losses on the team (and opposing teams) might be another negative added to several strikes against this Eagles team.

the eagles go into the post season this year with the same team that that got there last year, except with brian westbrook, jevon kearse, and a healthy secondary. combine that with a weaker nfc and how can they not make it?

I happen to believe in the intangibles. What happened in the Orange Bowl last night? Was USC that much better than Oklahoma? Hell no. They lost momentum and didn't have the strength as a team to pull it together. Let me use the Steelers again as a NFL example. Is Roethlisberger really that much better than Maddox? Nope. Remember, Maddox held the Steelers record for completion percentage, which Roethlisberger barely topped. Don't tell me this Pittsburgh team isn't a completely different one than the one that lost to Baltimore early, all because of an intangible.

I'm not saying the Eagles can't do it, or that they don't have the skill to do it, I'm just saying I can easily see them imploding again in these playoff games especially with the late events I've listed that don't exactly inspire confidence.

well i can't really argue with "intangibles" being that they're intangible and everything.

Hm.. 3 out of 4 for me. Not bad. I expected the vikings game to be close, but never would have predicted a blowout by minnesota.

I'm really unsure who will win the Colts / Patriots game. I'm going to go with New England solely because of the weather, though I can see it going either way.

Eagles over Vikings
Falcons over Rams

Colts over Patriots
Steelers over Jets

The colts will win the AFC. I promise that. The Eagles will NOT win the NFL. Maybe the Falcons win, maybe the Pack, maybe Minnesota, it depends on who decides to play, but I can assure you it won't be Philly.


With that said, the only way the Cotls do not win the Superbowl is if Brett Farve is playing against them, otherwise its Peyton Mannings time.

haha.

Go Brett!

1TD/4 Int if I recall...

Yeah but at least 2 of the INTs were the fault of the receiver. Possibly 3.

Two years ago no one really thought Tampa would beat Philly at Philly nor last year Carolina at Philly. But both NFC South teams won & represented the NFC in the SuperBowl, so I don't see why Atlanta can't do it as well.

Actually, the line for the Tampa game had TB favored by 3 in Philly. So wtf are you talking about? They had one of the greatest defenses of all time that year.

Carolina @ Philly. McNabb was hurt in the first half if I recall. Philly isn't going anywhere w/out him, so duhhh.

Let's see, McNabb played one sequence in the St.Louis game. And drove the team down the field and threw a TD in that lone drive. Vs Cincy he didn't play at all. Why are you even talking about confidence when McNabb wasn't even in the game? He's their MVP, heart and soul. Ask him how he feels about the Vikings, and then talk about confidence, and what two games with their B teams in, meant to Philly.

So you believe in "intangibles", huh? Well why don't you just say "Any given Sunday", instead of writing a paragraph? On paper, there is no NFC team better than Philly (even w/out TO). All the "intangibles" in the world won't change that.

Yeah but Favre also played like sht, not only the receivers. How about the underhanded pass 6 yards past the line of scrimmage for the 5 yard penalty/loss of down on 3rd and goal? Of course they missed the field goal after that (only 27 yards too), it hooked wide left right around 5 yards from the posts. Do you see what I'm getting at here? Favre hurt his team way too much yesterday, and yes the receivers sucked balls too and were responsible for at least 2 INTs, especially the one where the receiver totally forgot his pattern and went deep instead of curling to the left.

Go Eagles #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah that was a stupid play by him. I agree he was not at his best, but I think their pass defense (carroll especially) was probably 2/3 of the problem, with his underachieving being the other 1/3. And the finaly 0.0000000....1 being mike mckenzie's fault for being a tool before the season started.

On the play where Moss scored his second touchdown there was CLEARY holding. #42 of the Pack was coming off the left end and the minnesota guard was BEHIND him, slowing him down. I threw a fit when I saw that happen. If Minnesota hadn't scored there it could have been a whole different finish.
