<p>Arguing over a coin flip.....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Aaron Rogers shouldn't be disappointed, he still has one of the Olivias. Liking Arizona but it will come down to whether they can push past Seattle. The only way to beat the Pats is to shut down their passing game since they don't have a running game right now but teams seem to be struggling to do that. Maybe Denver can.</p> -
<p>The Panthers scored enough points in the 1st half to hold off the Seahawks 31-24.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That was a great comeback from Seattle and showed why they've been to the last 2 Super Bowls. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Carolina and Arizona haven't play eachother this season so the NFC Championship game will be interesting. </p> -
<p>Broncos through!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Steelers looking best team for most of the game but couldn't get a decent buffer on the scoreboard. Broncos with one excellent set of plays took the lead and a field goal then sealed it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Would love it if they made the Superbowl this time as I will be in Denver on Superbowl Sunday which could be interesting to see.</p> -
<p>we're not dead yet motherfuckers!</p>

<p>I'm happy with the final four teams - should be a cracker and no Seattle. Brady V Manning (for probably the last time), Cam V Carson. All good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dunno who I'll back though.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Be cool to see Peyton have a fairytale finish to his career but be even cooler to see Roger Goodell be forced to give Brady & Bill the trophy once more. Cam Newton was my MVP in the TSF fantasy football comp but the Arizona defence won me the TSF fantasy football final. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hmm, I'll go Arizona to win it all.</p> -
<p>Righto, finally caught up on watching playoff games - hard to find time with a young family and still needing to sleep. A few thoughts on the last couple of weekends below. I even avoid the NFL threads before i know the result (which is a pity as there are a few die hard fans hidden on the Fern)</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Bengals Steelers (I know it's a week old, but hey)</strong></p>
<p>Man, what a grudge match. It's bloody great when (occasionally) players start looking like they really really hate the opposition and want to kill them. Amazing stuff, ugly scenes from the crowd and a massive implosion by Burdick and then Jones that cost their team the game. Still, the Bengals arguably won the battle, but lost the war.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Pats Chiefs</strong></p>
<p>by god Brady is clutch. This game for me demonstrated how wafer thin the margins are at the top level. Chiefs pushed them to numerous third and long that got converted but could easily have been derailed. Very, very impressive and they ran away with it in the end. KC just didn't bring enough, and dont' seem to be in a hurry, ever.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Cards Packers</strong></p>
<p>given how rubbish the Packers have been, I didn't prioritise watching this. Still have it on mysky to catch up over the next few days -sounds like one hell of a game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Cam Newton vs Hawks</strong></p>
<p>wow. Just wow. 31-0 at half time against that defence? Insane. And a great comeback from pooing the bed in the first half.... still, I guess the Seahawks had their miracle last week with the missed field goal. Their new receiver Lockett looks the goods for a bloke from the third round of hte draft. Goes to show yet again that it's really hard to pick talent that can make it in the pros.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Overall, I love knockout football. Roll on the last three games of the year, and looking forward to a tasty superbowl matchup. For me, anyone but the Patriots to win the damn thing please.</p> -
<p>I only take interest at playoffs stage and certainly don't know enough to warrant following a whole game. Because of that I probably haven't built an immunity to player behaviour. Why do they all seem to act like complete twats/Chris Ashton everytime they just do their job? Catch a ball or make a tackle and then leap around swinging arms like an orangutan? Man there are some overpaid over-egoed dickwads in this sport.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>My sentiments as well! I'll be cheering for the NFC champ as neither team has won the Super Bowl before.</p> -

Looks like you are halfway there. <br>
